Even More Flight and Flying (Monday, July 10, 2016)
Anakin was standing in front of an endlessly long line full of weary, cranky travelers. "Welcome to the Chicago-O'Hare International Airport," he said with a tiny grin. "Commercial air travel on this planet are the reason Jaina and I fly our own crafts."
Well, not really, but truth and Anakin were...strange acquaintances.
"Something like that," Jaina said slowly. She was still nursing yesterday's hangover, she was gonna let that one slide. "And while you might've been in an airport or two for the portal terminal, flying is entirely different. And takes longer. And makes you deal with people."
"Stupid people," Anakin added oh-so-charitably. "But in their defense, I don't know why they make you take your shoes off."
"In case you're hiding something in them that you probably couldn't get to anyway because you have no leg room," Jaina answered.
"Another reason I fly myself," Anakin admitted. "I don't fit. Anyway, your challenge today is to get through this line, and then all the way to the very last gate in this terminal--" at least a mile away because Chicago didn't play, "--in the next, ohhhh, forty minutes before your flight leaves."
There would be some sprinting, kids.
"There will also be places to stop if you want coffee, or whatever," Jaina said. "If you have time."
They would not have time.
[OOC: Up early do to cross-country driving tomorrow!]
