ANH. Imperial Shuttle near Imperial Blockade. Out of the frying pan . . .

[astrotechmech]

Random paces up and down the small "corridor" behind the pilots' chairs. It isn't enough that they're using probably very-much-illegally-bought Imperial codes to sneak past the Imperial blockade led by Nemesis Prime's imposing vessel and onto the forested moon holding the shield generator for Unicron's two bodies using Random's ship-clearing formula. But they're also doing it in a ship that he's fixed before while in Imperial service. Not the one he used to get his formula written, but it was still unnerving to be in a ship whose weak points you're all too familiar with.

Especially if you know where the Imperials need to hit in order to instantly blow it up.

All he needs to complete this nightmare is for his old Imperial CO to pop out of one of the shuttle's compartments.

The cat makes a happy sound as Random steps forward, then gives him another cheek rub and turns to trot up the path toward where the others are waiting. He stumbles a couple times over those massive feet, but it's not until the others are in sight again, and he's calling excitedly that the truly spectacular trip happens. And then he's tip over tarkettle and all in a heap of sad sounding surprise.

And here comes Kia, hurrying toward the scene of the accident with Murphy hanging in her arms like usual.

Random follows, lagging behind a bit to make sure he doesn't accidentally trip over the cat. So he's not in the immediate area when the young cat falls over himself.

"Whoops." Random rushes forward to help and remembers his disguise when it gets in the way of crouching down. He shifts the cloth so he can gently pick up the young cat and set him back on his feet. "There you go."
