Smoke abatement

[James Greed]

“ Konnichiwa.“ she greets him calmly as he approaches the ship. She reaches her hand out, smiling at him. “You are supposed to kiss it.” She looks into his eyes with a charming smile. “As for being late… never mind. You are here now, and that’s what matters. I’m glad to hear that you’ll get to see Omicron Alpha. It’s a remarkable system, even though I don’t really trust its inhabitants. Nothing personal.”

After a short pause, she walks towards the entrance of the ship. “Follow me.” She enters the ship, then, she shows him the way to the engine section, walking afore him. Soon enough, they could smell the smoke. “There. I’ll be around if you need me. I know nothing about engines, so I can’t assist you in any ways. Not to mention, I wouldn’t like to have my dress cleaned later on.” she smiles at him, then leaves.

A few minutes later, she comes back with two glasses, filled with tea. She sits down on a chair, and puts the two glasses on a box next to her. “ Actually… I’ll just stay here and watch you work.” she laughs softly, and hands one of the glasses to him.
