[ Cassian had been here for all of less than a week and he was starting to get that distinct impression. Most wouldn't think of luxury as suffocating but all of this - the finery and quality of the clothes they had been given, the access to whatever food and drink they wanted, the heralding of the Summoned being "special" in some way - it presses around him on all sides. He's only ever been a nobody that passed wordlessly through the shadows. To have this thrust upon them is overwhelming to say the least.

But at least here, talking with this man about something that he knew and had nothing to do with Thorne feels like something grounding in a way that he can't explain. Did he already miss home that much? ]

Spaceships only. Not physically.

[ As if he needed to clarify that. It's his attempt at humour though. ]

It's a useful skill to have where I'm from. Unless you want to stay grounded on a planet or rely on others for transport. I'm no captain though.
