Spaceship Parking (and Beyond!), Sunday

[firstofitskind]

The weekend, Liam felt, had been a pretty good success so far. Sure, Sarah hadn't really been up to anything involving crowds, but that was fine. There were plenty of things they could do that didn't involve lots of people.

Like go flying in Liam's shuttle. Sure, for three out of the four of them it was not actually a new experience, but Liam never got tired of flying and besides, this time it would be Verity behind the controls for the majority of the flight.

(And okay, he genuinely liked Antimony, but he had to admit that picturing her face when she found out that not only did Sarah get to go to space but she did so in a ship that Verity was piloting was pretty damn funny.)

Of course, just out of habit he headed right for the pilot's seat, but then stopped, shook his head, and settled in to the front passenger seat instead, twisting around to grin at Sarah and Renee. "I promise she's a more patient pilot than she is a driver," he said, mostly for Sarah's benefit since it wasn't like Renee had ever had to experience Verity on the road.

"Does he like comics?" Sarah asked. "Or math?"

[arboreal_priestess]

"If he likes comics, Artie will set up some kind of comic exchange program faster than you can imagine," Verity noted, bringing them smoothly around to Saturn. "Especially if it means he can get his hands on alternate dimension comics."

"I don't know that he's ever read a comic," Renee admitted.

"He didn't exactly have a lot of time for fun after waking up from a few million years of stasis," Liam added.

"But now, he's one of two kids on a spaceship with a handful of adults. He's got nothing but time."

[cryptidsandkinfolk]

"Well, if Artie wasn't going to send comics before," Sarah said wryly, giving Liam a nod of agreement.

She'd be willing.

"I could suggest some of the games I played growing up," Verity offered.

Because she was terrible.

[thejourneysend]

"As long as it's something that two people could-"

[firstofitskind]

"No," Liam cut her off. "Absolutely not. Because that's how you end up with booby traps on the Mothership and trust me, that ship's got enough crazy bullshit, it doesn't need any help."

[arboreal_priestess]

Verity just pouts at him. "It helps teach a lot of important life lessons!"

[cryptidsandkinfolk]

"Like never lay down before checking your bed for traps," Sarah said. Mildly.

"WHICH IS AN IMPORTANT LIFE LESSON!"

[firstofitskind]

“The damn thing almost ate Renee once,” Liam said, shaking his head. “It’s plenty trapped.”

[thejourneysend]

“It didn’t eat me,” Renee shot back. “Exactly. That was a unique circumstance.”
