[The person following along means it makes perfect sense for the fox to be floating. Jaina's quite familiar with telekinetics. But it doesn't stop her from making a surprised noise when it tries latching on as they pass each other, and attempt to push the thing away.]

No, little guy. Take it up with your friend.

[Why are animals! Jacen is the animals twin, she just makes the cages and aquariums.]

[experiencepoints]

Stratus, no.

[She waves a hand, and Stratus is pulled away, and lowered to the ground, where it... immediately starts whining. It just wants to be pet. :(]

Sorry, she likes flying.

[two_jedi_sticks]

[Oh no, it is unhappy. Jaina's not into animals, but she'd have to be a robot to ignore that whine. She'll give an exasperated sigh, and reach to give a pat.]

I suppose I can't blame her for that. I thought maybe she was being corralled.

[experiencepoints]

[you now have a very happy fox that will resume the whine the instant you stop petting. good luck.]

Well... A little bit of both, really. You can ignore her.

[two_jedi_sticks]

[She tries stopping, but that whine makes it hard. Jaina's not a robot! What is this guilt trip, dog.]

She doesn't make it easy, does she?

How long has it been around? If I can ask.

[experiencepoints]

A few weeks now? I think over a month, but I haven't been counting. I got her on that ice and snow planet from before.

Were you here for that one? I don't think I saw you there.

[two_jedi_sticks]

I wasn't, and it's too bad. I would have liked to see how the engines on these ships handle an environment like that.

[experiencepoints]

... Would they not handle it just like every other environment?

[she knows nothing about engineering.]

[two_jedi_sticks]

Most power systems and engines run on some form of reaction. That's going to happen whether you're consuming reactor fuel or simply storing energy in power cells. Extreme temperatures that you haven't prepared for can affect how it works.

[Someone is all too happy to ramble about it.]

[experiencepoints]

... Huh. Maybe we can use that somehow. But nothing's ever caused problems before, short of getting shot at and chased into a nebula.

[two_jedi_sticks]

[Leaning in with interest. Now that would be an adventure!]

Who was shooting at you? Hiding in the nebula must have worked out, but what was it like in there?
