The Lambert House, Planet Denver

[Jeremy Hunter]

"Oh." Was all Rika managed to say. She knew how the girl felt...but it wasn't like she could say that with the Navy literally feet away.
"I've spent all my time on planets. Los Angeles, Manhattan...never really been off-planet."

Seraphim, meanwhile, was obviously ekbarassed by Pita's words. She managed a stuttered thanks before scooting her chair closer to Rika to hide her face agsinst Rika's bare shoulder. Rika merely smiled, stroking her "sister's" hair.
"It's alright Sera. No Ned to be nervous."
It took half a minute for Sera to pilull away, her hands on her knees as she focused on a spot of carpet. Her face had turned to a light pink by now as she grew more comfortable.
"Y-you sh-should go t-to LA. The beaches are a-awesome." Was all Sera managed to get out.
