B-155: Hopper, Missile Cache Asteroid


Lia, who I envisage as being closest to where the tethers are attached to the Hopper, adroitly moves to the tether, takes a grip and begins hauling it gently in.

Simultaneously, Kort grabs his tether and gives a mighty heave to reel himself in from the other end, causing him to pick up too much speed too fast and head for the surface of the asteroid, a whirling frisbee of arms and legs.  He manages to kick Kwint on the way down, causing him to drop the missile he was carrying.  

Kwint maintains his footing but the missile goes leisurely spinning end-over-end away from him.  Kort hits the ground and bounces in the low gravity, but Lia’s grip can prevent him flying away again and he manages to grab the side of the Hopper and bring his motion to a halt.

    Lia raises her eyebrows and lets go of a long breath.

    If she can communicate with Kort she’ll ask if he’s ok.
