Chapter One: Deep Space Music

[CarcerKango]

Jake yelps a bit when he's poked, looks embarrassed, and begins busying himself with pre-flight systems checks, calibrating his neurohelmet, and generally running through everything he needs to do before the flight. Soon the reactor is warmed up and ready, and he's just waiting on Thorchan to get back in, and for everyone else to arrive, before he takes off.
