Mission 8: Taking to the skies

[kettchmeifyoucan]

[Action: outside 727 Anderson]

[Wes steps out of the house on his way to his oh so thrilling job. He stops and staresn at the airspeeder sitting in the driveway]

Is that? Oh that is!

[Action: All over Mayfield]

[Wes isn't flying anywhere in particular. He's just flying. Because he can. He'll stop for those he knows... to show off his new toy. Okay, and for any total stranger who flags him down]

[Action: 2237 Stevens]

[He does, eventually, turn serious. In the end, flying has always helped him clear his head. And when that happened, he knew where he had to go. Knocking on Gavriel's door.]

[Wes crouches down and points to some conical shapes on the bottom]

Those are called repulsors. They generate their own gravity that pushes up against the planet's mass and lifts the speeder into the air. We used them when we were actually fighting on a planet.

[OKAY. This isn't going to get more technical is it? Tyve's comprehension just sort of stops at self contained gravity. You're speaking crazy future talk, Wes! Though she thinks she's gotten the jist of it.]

So it..Floats then. Interesting.
