8-323: Hopper – Foofor 2 Orbit, near the Shipwreck

So, if we look closely at the centre spar section, it’s square, or from Lia’s landing angle, diamond-shaped.  She brings the Hopper in adjusting neatly for the main rotation, but the slight spin around the long axis is difficult to judge, and she’s going a little quick when the pointy corner of the centre spar hits the underside of the Hopper off-centre and the vehicle cants over to the opposite side and hits the hull with a jarring clang that can’t be heard in vacuum, but which Lia can feel through her bones.  

 
However, she quickly activates the landing gear (basically, stubby little feet only about 20cm high with Gecko-stick on the bottom) and they have docked.
Prrri begins immediately working the console, and reports, “No damache Xlia.”

    She lets out a huff of air.

    “Not for want of trying. Thanks Prrri. Apologies for the rough landing, Captain.”

    She will do whatever she needs to ensure they’re securely docked.
