Lielieja rolled her eyes at Dragumand’s suggestion about the holocall. The point was that she wanted to see the captain’s surprised expression as they blasted off, not call to chit chat and say “tata”. And besides, his holographic projection just wouldn’t do it justice. Any further thoughts about the captain were pushed aside apart from who would sit in the captain’s chair.
”Yes, THAT this,” Lielieja said with her hands on her hips. ”Of course I always get to fly!” she said indignant, ”If you were the one flying it would take us forever to get anywhere! You always wait for the takeoff and docking procedures and you fly like a grandma!” she said. ”My way of flying is much more time efficient.”
He obviously wasn’t happy but Dragumand eventually gave up the chair. Lielieja saw his disappointed/pouty puppy dog look and it make her feel at least a little bad about making him get up. But what she said was true, he did take forever flying places and she wanted to get back to Coruscant quickly.
Sitting down in the unoccupied chair, Lielieja waited for Dragumand to finish the last of the preflight procedures. ”Alright, let’s blow this joint!” she said when they were finally ready to roll. Bringing the engines online Lielieja gave them a little extra oomph before zipping out of the docking bay and out into space. ”Bye Captain!” she said sarcastically as she put on an extra burst of speed heading out towards the open space where they could make the jump to light speed.
