“This is so beautiful, Erik. I never grow tired of this.” - she mentioned. Erik grinned ever so slightly... since he could say the very same thing... yet he wouldn't be talking only about the landscape, but also about the woman right in front of him. Still, he decided to keep quiet for a second.
Eventually, his mind jumped from one place to another and he found himself commenting "You know, I just remembered. Catherine and the others in the old nanite research team want to go for a dinner some time next month. They wanted to know if we could be there too." - he paused, smiling at some aquatic animals that just came at sea-level.
"It always amazes me how easy life on this planet adapted to our arrival... Usually you'd expect ecosystems to shift... or some kind of changes to take place. But no, life on Yuma seems to be as resilient as the people of Crayter." - his voice drifted. He let his eyes gaze away, over the horizon.
Somewhere else on the ship, in a room with no balcony but wide windows, the two boys were enjoying a holographic table game while also admiring the visible landscapes. Still, after being in flight for over three hours now, Peter was growing anxious... and his emotions decided to manifest through hunger. As his stomach growled faintly, he asked Benjen if he's hungry as well.
