 Hey, ya'll.

[ Hi Reverie Fam, it's your resident faux texan Martian, here, his warm drawl caressing your ears. For those of you that have them and can still hear out of them, anyway. ]

So I've been thinkin'. 

We've been gettin' access to some new areas, but I'll be honest and say that there's on in particular I've been most interested in gettin' in, but we might need a team to do it like we did for the door to Operations. We need to get into the Hangar Bay. We know there is one - the map up in operations made that clear, and I'm pretty sure I even know the exact door we need to get in. We just need to get in  it.

So I thought--

[ He cuts off sharply with an ow!, and then there's a clattering noise as the communicator hits the floor. Silence for a couple seconds, and then in a breathless whisper that sounds like it's coming from several feet away: ]

Holy shit, where did these come from? [ There's another rustling and clattering and the next time his voice is audible, it's from much closer to the mic. ]

Folks, I think we've got a ride. 

I think we've got two rides, and--

Wait, what? Where the hell'd they go??

[The audio disconnects.]

Honestly, they describe it to me an' I can barely even imagine it.

Like seein' a real ocean. That'd be something. But don't think I'm gonna be on Earth, any time soon.


[ Talking about Bodhi is still keeping him smiling. ]

Seems pretty quiet, but he's a pilot, right? And I bet a pretty damn good one.

There's no ocean on Mars? Scarif had an ocean. That's where we were last.

He's the best pilot in the galaxy.

[donkeyballs]

There's barely an atmostphere on Mars - any liquid on the surface just burns right off. We live under domes, for the most part, and tunnels.

You lived on Scarif?

[ Oh no, he's so charmed by this... ]

Glad to hear it. Hope I get a chance to see him fly.

It sounds almost like Coruscant, at least in the Galactic City.

[ she still had fond memories she'd left there, even though she should have been too young to make them. ]

We didn't live there, no. We had a mission, perhaps the most important one anyone's ever completed. [ she nods before remembering this isn't a video feed. ] I'm certain you will do, perhaps you each could learn something from one another.

The moment we unlock the hangar, that is. I should let you get back to it.

[donkeyballs]

[ He had about forty more questions, just from the slight hints of conversation he gave, but he could also pick up on the gentle dismissal. Should let her get back to whatever it was she was up to, too. ]

Yeah. I'll make a point to.

Alright, darlin'. Don't be a stranger.

It's Jyn. Jyn Erso. You may call on me any time, pilot.

[ he has her contact information now, after all. she shuts down her end of the audio feed and does indeed get back to work. ]
