They’d managed to dock without notice, due to Carol flying in and putting a fist through the security system. Thankfully for them, it seemed security was more or less completely automated.

Carol peeked around a corner, waiting as a security drone finished its sweep and moved to the next hall. But she had to spin around and duck back behind the corner as several scientists emerged from a door further down, carrying a glass case that held what looked like a mummified hand.

Her eyes narrowed.

Roxy knew that the relationship she had had with Crow would never be the same as it had been before they had been separated.  Five years had changed them both.  But there were some things that remained the same.  

It would be one evening that she walked through the door, carrying a few bags.  She had made a stop or two on her way home, picking up what supplies she needed.   An idea for an evening in had formed in her mind during the day and she hoped that Crow was home.

Rylan let Crow go off to bed without comment, though his eyes were just as sad as Crow’s had been.

He had so many thoughts running through his head, so many conflicting emotions that he didn’t know which to give credence to.

So, it would be a few hours later before he moved from where he’d still been sitting on the couch, staring off into space as he let those thoughts and emotions take over and war with one another.

And then Crow would hear the click of the door opening and then a breath taken in before a warm body slid in behind him in bed.

And he waited until Crow turned around to face him before he spoke, his voice soft, unsure...

Eve had absolutely no idea why she’d been asked to visit a potential recruit. Persuasion wasn’t her forte. Nor was anything social, outside of the strict confines of the clinical.

Yet there she was, checking the dossier Suit had sent to her tablet. Mainly because the signal she’d been assigned to track -- apparently something that came directly from hardware in his brain -- was coming from...

...the dumpster in front of her.

Hopefully he wasn’t dead inside it.

MC might have spent the last leg of the trip pacing in their room and hugging her KissKiss Tako-chan plush to her chest.

It had quickly become apparent that it wasn’t due to Crow. Well, not directly, at any rate.

“...oh my gosh what if he c-can’t understand my accent? W-What if I blank and f-forget English words and it d-doesn’t sound right and then neither of us can understand what the other is saying a-and then it’ll just be so awkward that we’ll just s-s-stare at each other and wonder why we even met and he’ll be d-disappointed and...”

MC turned about-face and thunked her forehead lightly against the wall with a suffering sigh.

(( @gravity-eternity sent me that ask when I was at work, and now here it is over 12 hours later and I still couldn’t resist scribbling it. Even if it’s 1 in the morning.

World traveling was something normal for her.  Even meeting strange creatures was fairly common.  The space scene was new...and so was running into a tall blue man and getting knocked over.
