Ship Approaching!

[itsjustjoel]

[There’s a bit of static on Cambot’s screen, before Joel’s face appears once again. He’s still in the cockpit of his tiny spaceship.]

Joel: --I’m almost there now, so hang tight! Oh, and by the way: open the pod bay doors, Gypsy!

Gypsy: I’m sorry Joel, I’m afraid I can’t do that.

Joel: Aww come on, Gypsy. I’ll let you talk to Richard Basehart on the phone. I got his number while I was down on Earth.

Gypsy: Oh, well in that case, yesyesyesyesyesyes! Opening Launch Deck doors now!

Joel: Thanks, girl.

[If characters want, they can come and meet Joel down in the Launch Deck now!]

[Guess who's waiting to meet him, though hanging back a bit behind the others.]

[Joel notes the young girl coming to greet him. Wow, there really were a lot of kids here, weren't there?]

Hi there. What was your name again?

[colorbymemory]

[There's quite a few of them, yes, though most don't like being thought of as kids.]

Hello. My name is Namine.

You're Joel, right?

[itsjustjoel]

Aw that's a nice name.

Yup, that's me. You been hangin' in there okay?

[colorbymemory]

Thank you.

We've been managing, though we'll be glad to get home.

[itsjustjoel]

Well, being stuck in space is definitely not for the faint of heart, miss. We'll get you home here quick enough.
