The Junkyard, and then Parts BEYOND; Thursday Morning [09/16].

So, it came to Summer's attention that her most recent school-assigned friend had never been to space, and, since she apparently couldn't meet a person who had never been to space without offering them a ride in her ship, there was a little jaunt up to the moon or maybe past Mars in order, because unlike all those other times, they actually decided to do it the next day so that Summer didn't get caught up in the million other things she threw herself into and forget and/or forget to make time for it.

(S'up, Moon Date with Tisarwat and Lucille from a million years ago!)

She got there a little early, though, with a thermos full of the promised coffee (because that's what you needed in your stomach, the first time you went into space, coffee) so that it didn't get cold while she got started on the basic checks and overview to make sure everything was in working order before they headed out. Clipboard and checklist and everything, baby! She was totally going to blame T&C for this, but she did love a good checklist-on-a-clipboard montage sequence.

[[ expecting the aforementioned school-assigned friend, but it can definitely be open before him in the timeline! ]]
