RE: A Traveller, a Cargo Hauler, and a Ship Dealer Walk Into a Bar

She pushed herself off the wall as she moved towards the now landed ship, moving with long strides towards it, still silent as her eyes went back to their examination of other ships.

After closing the large ceiling doors, Sam follows him inside to the engine room. He's silent for a few minutes before saying anything.

Sam: ..How does this run?

He scratched his head and walked around the engine room more.

Sam: What exactly do you want done to it?

Alex: I guess I probably want a brand new engine so I don't break down in a vacuum and die horribly of suffocation or freezing.

He once again shoves his hands into his pockets.

She slipped into the room to take up a position near the door, watching the two of them in silence, her hands clasped behind her back.

Sam: Yeah. That wouldn't be good. I'll be honest with you, a new engine for a JN316 won't be cheap. You're looking at several thousand tape if you want an entirely new engine.

He leans against the wall, staring at the rack loaded with duct tape inside the engine room.

Alex scratches his head.

Alex: Uhh...

He looks around.

Alex: I guess I'll be breaking down and dying a horrible death. Heck, a new ship would probably be cheaper.

Sam laughs.

Sam: Honestly, it probably would be, depending on what you want.

Sam peels off one of the pieces of duct tape, and watches a chunk of metal fall on the ground. He stares at it in silence.

Alex takes a quick glance at his PDA.

Alex: I'll see how much money I can get off these deliveries I've got around here. I'll come back later. Thanks for your help.

Sam: Y-you're actually going to fly this thing? I'd be afraid to fly to the store in it.

He has a rather serious look on his face.

Alex: Trust me, I've been flying it like this for the past six months. It'll go another hour.

Soon, he has left. Three blocks away from the shop, the lights in the ship go dead and the engine sputters. The ship angles downward and speeds uncontrollably toward the ground.

Alex: Oh.

BOOM

Chunks of asphalt blow out of the road he has crashed into and a giant dust cloud blows up. Several cars come screeching to a halt around him. Alex is silent for a moment. The land was hard, but he's okay. He then begins laughing uncontrollably and gets up. As he attempts to walk into the cargo bay, he floats upwards slowly.

Alex: Hm. Artificial gravity works.

He pushes off the ceiling toward the floor.

Alex: Not properly, but it works.

He climbs through the ship into the cargo bay and looks around for a moment before pulling a dolly out of the floor, unfolding the handle, and taking advantage of the messed up gravity to load the autocannon he looted onto it. He ties it down, drags it into the back, and lowers the ramp. He suddenly feels much heavier and nearly falls down as he exits.

After closing the ramp, the next ten minutes are occupied by the dragging of a 30mm Walker Industries autocannon back to Jorgenson Ship Dealers.

When he arrives, he pulls the thing into the shop.

Alex: What'll this and an engineless, crashed JN316 cargo ship get me?

He smiles insincerely.
