She snapped out of her thoughts and addressed her new co-worker. "Hello Conner, I'm Gaia, I'll be the co-pilot on this ship." She held out her hand for him.

"hello Gaia! it will be an honor working with you." he shook her hand

"You too." She gleamed.

conner began to board the ship "i'll be heading to my post if you need me."

"Okie dokie!" Ellis held out his hand to Gaia. "Need a hand?"

Mariko followed the voices, putting the glasses back over her head and stuffing her hands into her pocket. "Who's this, Captain?"

Gaia took his hand and boosted up onto the ship. "Thank you, Captain."

Ellen glanced around trying to figure out who the newcomer was talking about. "Who, me?"

Ellis gestured to the others. "We have new crew members! This is Gaia, Ellen, and Conner."

"Oh. Okay." Mariko stood up straight and saluted. "Welcome to Captain's ship. My name is Mariko. I am happy to assist your mechanical needs."

She waved at the other woman, who Ellis had called Mariko while they chatted in the cafe. "Hello, I'll be the co-pilot. I'll be happy to assist with emotional needs as well."

After a bit of a pause, Ellen cleared her throat. "So am I sleeping a closet? Cus I can fit in a closet."

"No no, you'll sleep on a cot on the floor." He jabbed his thumb at a door. "In Mariko's room."

Ellen's eyes widened. "Oh, an actual bed?! Wizard."

"What?" Mariko crossed her arms. "I may not sleep in my room, but that doesn't give you the right to give it away." she usually slept in the control room, so she could keep an eye on the ship's wires. Besides, the small space was cozy.

Gaia was puzzled over why Ellen said wizard. Her rich, high-class brain buzzed on what she meant.

"she can sleep in mine! i don't mind."

"Nonono if anyone is giving up their bed, it's gonna be me." He pointed. "You guys are the crew, I'm just the captain."

"sir, if i may, you need more sleep then any of us."

"Yes, do that. Give up your own bed, you selfless man. I have to go check on the motherboard. Seeya." the excuse was the best she could come up with. She'd already checked the motherboard 20 times today alone.

"Especially with me around." Ellen said, smirking.

Ellis scoffed. "Of course I need more sleep, doesn't mean I'm gonna get it." He gestured. "I'm serious, Ellen can have mine and I'll just sleep in the cockpit."

"Naw, I don't need a whole room to myself. 'Sides, don't ships usually have crew cabins with bunks or something?"

"I don't care where i sleep, honestly," Gaia stated. She hoped she got a closet or something, just to break the rich person compliant stereotype.
