Jules set the ship down gently on the landing pad. He flicked a switch and it powered down. "We're here honey!"

Lilith slinked out of the kitchen holding a doughnut. "Are we?"

"Yep." He turned around in his seat. "Okay where did you find that and how old is it?"

"I don't care. I've been craving for a doughnut for forever."

"Okay then." He shrugged. 'Go ahead and get food poisoning. See if I care."

Lilith sighed through her nose. "I found them on the counter. I think it's one of the ones I tried to make a couple days ago. Happy?" She took a bite.

"Indescribably." He slid out of the chair. "Alright. Finish that off and we'll head out."

Lilith shoved the rest in her mouth and licked her fingers. "Alright. Let's go."

"You're amazing." He raised his eyebrows, shaking his head. They headed towards the door and stepped out into the open air. Well….it wasn't natural air but it was still open. Jules sighed. "I hate manufactured air."

Lilith wrinkled her nose. "Do you think after this we can build a little cottage on that little planet we were in?"

"Virdi? Absolutely." He nodded. "Oooookay let's head to the mechanic's shop first."

She grinned and nodded her agreement with the mechanics. "Do you think I could go shopping for clothes? You don't have to come with me."

"Nah I'll come with. I could use some new duds."

"Okay." She looked around. "To the mechanic's first?"

"Yep." He started off in the direction of the bustling crowd, hands in his pockets.

Lilith grabbed his arm and waited for him to move.

(oh)

Lilith grabbed his arm and walked with him, staying quiet and keeping her gaze averted.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

"I just don't like crowds." She murmured so quietly, he barely heard her.

Jules nodded. Okay…I get that.

She tightened her grip on him and glanced nervously at a burly man passing.

They made it to the shop without incident. The woman at the counter had cropped hair and a grease covered face. She was toying with a gadget of sorts. "Welcome to Millie's Mechanic how may I help you?" She said, not looking up.

Jules paused. "Well….we'd like it if you came out and took a look at our ship."

"What happened to it?"

"We… um… ran into some pirates and they burned a hole into the side of it." Lilith answered for Jules.
