"Might be, I don't know. I wish I could tell whether something's amiss or not by myself, like a systems check."

"I could try to give you a self diagnostics program" Peter said

"Yeah, that'd probably do the trick.", Victoria nodded.

"I can work on yo uanytime you want" Peter said "though I would like to cleanup a bit."

Piper snickers and plays back that last part a few times aloud in the cockpit for Jack. "I's like comedy Christmas," she says.

Jack chuckled hearing it. "God...it is."

(I think I'm going to turn this into a will they won't they situation and drag it out as long as possible. Although, Peter might seem like he's clueless he knows exactly what he's doing.)

Dover took a bite of his buffalo burger shaking his head "Not as good as the real thing but still not bad. And if those two don't do something soon I'm going to intervene."

"I would pay so many credits to see that," Piper says. "Can we make that a thing? Popcorn? Reclining seats? Surround sound? Could charge admission."

"Why not" Dover shrugged

"Oh yeah, of course.", Victoria nodded and moved out of his way. "See you in a bit then."

"It's a small ship so it is possible" Peter said

"Wise cracking doesn't suit you.", she said, a hint of a smile appearing on her lips as she left.

"I wasn't cracking wise" Peter said before getting into the shower

Victoria headed down the hall through the ship on her way to the cockpit.

Piper sits Indian-style on the floor at the back of the cockpit, using her Holodex to watch Looney Tunes.

Victoria stopped by the cockpit and narrowed her eyes, glaring at Jack and Piper knowingly before moving on.

Jack smiled. "Rooting for you!" He called out to her.

"Uh oh, Action Man," Piper says without looking up from her cartoons. "She's givin' us the scary eyes. Best to abandon ship while we still can."

"Nah we'll be alright." Jack said.

Peter came out sometime later feeling refreshed.

Victoria was hanging with Dover, watching him work.

"Think your boyfriends done prettying himself up for you" Dover said

Victoria punched Dover in the shoulder. "Shut up!", she hissed.

(heading to bed)

"Ooh. Someone's CPU's overheatin'," Piper chimes, giving Jack a high five. She continues watching cartoon on her Holodex, awaiting arrival.

"Like I haven't heard that one before...", Victoria muttered.

"Don't let her get to you kid" Dover said
