Would anyone like some ice cream?

[Currently Enty was doing something with one of her heavier, bomber aircraft. Loading what looked like milk and other items into a compartment onto... one of the wings!?

Anyway, she looked both busy, and giddy at the same time.]

[ Stelle comes from a video game where a beautiful knight can solo a monster that swallowed a space train (with him in it) without the help of his spacecraft. Hypoxia may as well not exist for her.

Stelle watches with rapt attention as the aircraft lifts off, and the world shrinks rapidly as they gain height. It's really cool, actually. The Astral Express makes excessive use of teleporters so she doesn't get to see this. And the swooping in her stomach, the pressure in her ears—it's all so different. ]

The ships look like little bugs. Eltrut looks like a pebble.

[ She's awed by it all. ]

[They are not in a magic space train/Tardis. They were still climbing as well, with things below growing even smaller. Mountains would shrink under them, and the curvature of the world would become gradually more visible to them.]

And we still have a bit higher to go.

[Eventually all they would hear is each other, the engines of the aircraft and the faint sound of the wind as they rushed through the skies. Making everything rather peaceful. Passing the 20,000 mark, then finally reaching 30,000, Enty levels out then enters a bank turn. Letting her passenger get a better view of the world under them. Everything, for miles on miles around, the people vanishing and the ships below appearing as even smaller dots while the occasional cloud cover passed underneath them.

At their current altitude nothing could reach them, and they were free to go wherever they wished in no time at all.

It's all very exhilarating, powerful and breathtaking; and maybe a little inspiring.]
