Haha! Alright, alright, go ahead and strap yourself into the rear gunner's seat once you have everything on and ready to go. Also, do a quick check to make sure the oxygen mask will fit you.

[She giggles at the enthusiasm being shown here! Then gives a small pause as she climbs into the pilot's seat.]

...I wasn't planning on going up to the full service ceiling today but... Well, why not. How does thirty thousand plus feet in the air sound to you?

[sos_pilot]

You got it!

[ She salutes before heading off to the seat and doing as commanded. As her eyes scan the pilot's flight deck, she nods in approval - everything seems to be in tip-top shape, all the numbers are good, it's all in order. ]

It sounds like poetry in motion, captain!

[lucky_e]

[Everything is in perfect order! There is a note on the rear gun that reads "DO NO TOUCH". It is loaded.]

Excellent-- [She clambers into the pilot's seat while closing the canopy. and starting up the engine. Within moments the aircraft begins to forward, gradually moving faster and faster until the wheels start to leave the ground.]

Fuel mixture good, oxygen good, engine's good! And we're off!

[sos_pilot]

[ Of course Della's going to eye that gun, but she is a Good Girl when it comes to planes, and will not touch.

Once the wheels are gone, Della leans back and lets out a sweet little sigh, as if all the world's troubles have just rolled off her shoulders. ]

Oh, baby, I missed this. I feel normal again.

[lucky_e]

[Good! Because it's big and cool and goes BOOM BOOM.

Anyway the ground below them begins to shrink further and further away, until they were well above the island, and the only sound is the drum of the engine and the plane's two occupants.]

Mm, there's nothing quite like the feeling of flying, is there?

[Flying and sailing both, getting away from everything and having few obstacles in your way.]

How often did you get to fly back home?

[sos_pilot]

All the time! I'm the family's official pilot!

[ She proudly jabs her thumb to her chest. ]

We go all around the world, adventuring and exploring! I'm in charge of taking us here and there, avoiding and fighting enemies, and making sure the cargo gets back in one piece. I've been in a pilot's seat since I was a kid, and my son Dewey is learning the ropes even better than I did at that age!
