Spaceship Parking & Beyond, Sunday Afternoon

[firstofitskind]

Liam had made plans with Kaidan and Verity to go on something of a joyride today, so he'd shown up at the junkyard early to give himself time to do an extra-thorough pre-flight check.

The virtual glass shimmered and became permeable as the shuttle recognized his biometrics, and he sat down in the pilot's seat and brought up the HUD.

ID core, optimal; conventional drive, optimal; weapons, optimal; communications, online; backup controls, online... everything seemed to be in working order. Now he just needed his passengers.

[ooc: for them what's mentioned!]

"Never said it'd be easy, only said I'd try," Kaidan said with a small shrug. "We definitely don't have dragons where I'm from, though one of our sentient races looks a bit like."

"We're more interested in keeping them convinced we're all dead," Verity said. "And doing our best to hide folks when the Covenant is in town."

She thought of all the cryptids who had left Baltimore when Dominic had shown up. A significant fraction hadn't returned - and that was of those who still could.

Pushing away the image of Piyusha's body, she looked up at Kaidan, head tilted to the side in curiosity. "We only just discovered ours weren't as extinct as previously assumed. But all your sentient species come from outside of Earth?"

"Yeah. Earth was a monoculture before we entered the larger galactic community. Now, not so much, but not nearly to the extent of some other worlds," Kaidan answered. "It's kind of weird for me, living on this planet while it's still pre-space."

"There still might be more things on this Earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy," Verity said lightly. "But I understand what you mean. The idea of walking down the street and seeing only human faces in the crowds gives me the shivers."

And not the good kind.
