Convention with Barry and Cisco

[childofrebellion]

Cassian's at the counter in his informal Willix outfit which resembles a simple blue suit that's more formal that what he normally wears.

He left a note for them about a chance to go see a lot of ships at the convention. Today's a good day for them to visit as its the busiest of the convention with the most tourists.

Cisco seizes the controls and takes off with a whoop.

He may have never flown an actual space craft before, but all the hours logged on video games do see to be helping him through this.

[childofrebellion]

The course is for showing off the ship so there's nothing that dangerous but some fun curves and a few obstacles.

The salesperson smiles at hearing that whoop, its always good to have happy engineers.

"Damn Cisco, you're actually doing pretty good," Barry comments, impressed.

While Cisco takes the curves and moves around obstacles Barry's head cants in the direction the ship is flying.

"Just call me 'Ace' Cisco declares, swooping around an obstacle. "Couple more sessions in one of these I'd so be ready for the real thing."

[childofrebellion]

The salesperson heads off to help someone else and Cassian says,

"Want to do a higher difficulty next time? Do you want a turn?" He asks Barry.

[makes_the_toys]

"Totally," Cisco says. "I got this."

[run_barry]

"Yeah, I guess I can give it a shot," Barry says with a quick nod, eager now to try it out.

[childofrebellion]

"Barry, why don't you go next and then I can put it up to a higher difficulty for Cisco after."

He says as he checks that they have the space pretty much to themselves.

[run_barry]

"Alright, cool," Barry says.

"Hop up," he says to Cisco, nudging him so that they can switch places.

[makes_the_toys]

Cisco gives his spot to Barry and asks Cassian, "So is there a high-score on this thing or anything?"

[childofrebellion]

"Not on this one but the ones at the cantina we go to together does,"

He's seen them on the Milliways' sims and doublechecks the sim.

[makes_the_toys]

"Well then, I guess that makes you the judge on who's the better pilot here," Cisco declares, putting a hand on Cassian's shoulder and giving it a shake.

[run_barry]

"Dude, you don't have to do that," Barry says to Cassian as he settles in and gets ready for the sim to start.

"Unless you think it's me, then you can totally say I'm the better pilot."

[childofrebellion]

Cassian laughs at them, "The sim's better for judging than me."

[makes_the_toys]

"It's me, right? You just don't want to hurt Barry's feelings," Cisco says, leaning over and confiding in Cassian at a volume that's totally easy for Barry to overhear.

[run_barry]

Barry rolls his yes and shakes his head.

"Alright, don't distract me now, I'm going to do this thing," Barry says as the simulation begins.

[childofrebellion]

"Barry has to take his run first."

Cassian reminds them then his smile shifts as there's a clomp of boots outside the booth walls.

[makes_the_toys]

While Barry goes through his run Cisco coaches loudly from behind.

"Turn, turn. Now swoop down. I said swoop!"

[run_barry]

"I'm doing it, I'm doing it," Barry says to Cisco's instructions.

The clomp of boots don't go unnoticed and Barry throws a quick look over his shoulder towards Cassian.

"We alright?" he asks, voice dropping a touch.

[childofrebellion]

As Cisco's yelling, Cassian moves over to glance past the exhibit walls to watch TIE pilots and an officer go by with their 'troopers.

He does a quick count and note of ranks before coming back and gives a small nod to Barry.

[makes_the_toys]

"Barry-- Barry-- pay attention!" Cisco says, slapping on Barry's shoulder and pointing as the ship gets dangerously close to crashing.

[run_barry]

Barry nods and then turns his attention back to Cisco and then the sim, jerking the controls just in time to save the ship.

"Oh. Whoop. Sorry, I got it-- "

He brings the craft back under control to finish the run.

[childofrebellion]

"Take another run,"

Cassian appreciates Barry paying attention but he doesn't have to all the time here.

[run_barry]

Barry throws Cassian a quick nod.

"I can totally do it better," he says, starting off again.

[makes_the_toys]

"Hey, it's my turn," Cisco protests.
