They'll be a little series of "First Times" in which the pair get up to various shenanigans, such as calling home, and falling into the sunken sofa.

Be aware that they will come.

Hopefully we'll see more Jobannon in the new episodes

After an intense battle of handball, Ridley mentions that she hadn’t eaten prior to going over for their weekly game. John, being ever the gentleman, puts his foot down and tells her to have one of the bagels before she heads back to Global One. John mentions how EOS once pelted bagels at him when they first met.

This is for the TAG Hot Air Balloon challenge. (Yes, I made art! And I’m really proud of myself!!)

As always, I have put this fanfic on archive, so you can read it here or there: http://archiveofourown.org/works/9923342

“John, I’m pretty sure that’s not how you eat that.” Ridley laughed, amused by her companion and his matchmaker eating skills. John just gave a smirk and pushed his tongue against the candy in his mouth, causing it to snap into two smaller, more chewable pieces.

“Since when was there a set of rules to eat a stick-like chocolate sweet, O’Bannon?” John replied when he’d chewed and swallowed the matchmaker, leaving the false feeling of minty fresh in his mouth.

“I’m just saying, having your cheeks bulge out because you’ve lodged a matchmaker in your mouth isn’t probably the most efficient way to eat them, especially when you have a nice long one such as this” Ridley smiled, holding up another chocolate stick with mint flavoured sugar shards.

John stretched a little and eyed the small green box between himself and the female astronaut. The box of matchmakers had been sent up by Gordon, naturally, as part of John’s monthly supply package that was delivered via space elevator up to Thunderbird 5. Gordon’s instructions for the matchmakers were simple. John was not allowed to open the box until he had company of the female type. He therefore knew Gordon had meant Ridley, but this detail didn’t bother John too much, since it gave the two astronauts to spend more quality time away from their busy day to day lives and just enjoy the time they were able to spend before real life caught back up with them. In this instance, while yes, Ridley had travelled to Thunderbird 5 to play zero-g handball with John, he this time had a valid reason to keep her on his ship after their playing session.

“Alright then Ridley.” John leaned back slightly, readjusting his angle his body was slanted at while floating around in zero-g, “Show me how exactly you eat a cool mint matchmaker.”

Ridley nodded and placed the tip of her held matchmaker between her teeth, before carefully closing her mouth and forming a sort of pout around the stick of matchmaker. John watched her intently, as if she were doing some scientific practical experiment in a high school, but Ridley payed no attention to his playful stare and began to suck the matchmaker slightly, letting a small portion be suctioned into her mouth and then breaking it off to let it melt and swallow. This way of eating matchmakers certainly made the stick last longer, and it left a greater sense of mint in her mouth, but then again, more mint feeling meant a colder feeling mouth when breathing in – and John didn’t exactly fancy that.

“Are you sure that’s the way?” John asked his companion, who just nodded and withdrew another matchmaker from the box.

“Yes John, I’m sure that this is the way”

“Well then, I suppose I’m going to need more lessons” He said, floating forward and biting the matchmaker out of her hand, catching her off guard before grinning.

“Score one for me, Captain.”

2063 The 24 and 25 year old newlyweds had just returned from their honeymoon, and every Tracy, old and new, as well as very close friends, had gathered around the circular sofa arrangement to watch a freshly made video of the couple’s wedding. Alan was sat with Kayo, Virgil was sat alongside his biggest brother, Grandma Tracy and Parker were sat together talking about how beautiful the wedding video was, John was sat with his newest friend Ridey and his long-time friend Brains, and Gordon was cuddled up with his new wife, Lady Penelope.

The wedding video played, and everyone was thrilled. The day had been filled with happy memories, and everyone realised just how important 2060 really was as a year. For the Tracy’s, it was a year of new relationships, ones which grew and blossomed into such grace and beauty it made everyone’s hearts soar with pride.

2060 was the year for Lady Penelope and Gordon. After countless innocent flirts between the pair, Virgil and Scott had encouraged their almost youngest sibling to ask his romantic interest on a date. Something simple, but memorable. The decided plan was to take Penelope on a dinner date at a hillside restaurant that overlooked a twinkling seafront town below. He’d dressed in his finest – a soft yellow dress shirt and a black suit on top. There was no sign of his usual dress sense in sight …unless of course you looked at his underwear, but he highly doubted anyone besides himself would see that. Penelope, however, was positively radiant. She wore a silky dress, coloured in block half black-half white, all complete with her hair done up in a bun and a pair of snappy black heels. Penelope was a lady after all – what did you expect? The date had been a complete success, and many extravagant dates followed, right up until Gordon had popped the question during a visit to that same restaurant a couple of years after.

However, 2060 had also been a massively successful year for Alan and Kayo too. Every single person, and robot, on that island during the summer days of 2060 could see the massive crush Alan had on his occasional co-pilot, and yet only John had been the one to give his youngest sibling advice on what to do. Sure, John was certainly no Love Guru, but his strong and close friendship with Kayo meant he knew what he could tell Alan to win Kayo’s heart over. It was no easy feat for Alan, due to his confidence’s disappearing act whenever Kayo was in the vicinity, but eventually the 17 year old gained enough courage to ask the 20 year old out. And since those days, well, Scott never realised that the bedrooms weren’t as soundproof as he’d hoped.

I don't think this should go on my Ridley account, but I found a gem on my Miitopia.
