For [livejournal.com profile] colliemommie: "You don't pay me enough for this."



"You want what now?" he asked.

"A road train, for the Unlimited Category," she repeated. She brought up a sketch on her pad. "Engine, controls, crew quarters, and spares here in the main section. Each trailer will be just hydrogen tanks. It should be able to drive continuously for almost a month."

"The tires will never hold, unless you make them from Hull Material, and you can't make them from that without the Groupmind's permission."

"They'll be rubber, with cooling tubes to keep them from melting."

"I don't get paid enough for this."

"Who gets paid at all these days?"
