Bridge "Stephens goes everywhere prepared," Tawfeek says. "And it's not like you need a lock-picking set and 20 minutes to rupture a suit."
He Pooh Jihad had stayed on the dark side and was not immediately visible.
"Nudge us close enough to startle their suit," Tawfeek said. "And let us get a good look."
At the end of the most science-fictiony ball and chain ev-ahr!
"Just make sure we don't impact too quickly," Jessica said. "And you can plant it where you like."
It should be noted that, while travelling slower than a speeding ship through bread loaves, a hastey Mensk and Jessica would still make a very wet crater on the fragment.
And there would be no bowl of petunias to provide comedic relief.

I wonder if what these people call a basic kit includes anything like a spray can?1d20·1d20·1d100

Tabitha sat out the viewport, crossing her fingers under the console that things would work out

"Want me to buzz him," Flip asks. "Nothing keeps a guy busy like a collision alert."

Bridge"I was going to say to scoop him," Tawfeek answered. "But a buzz will do." Less BridgeMensk had a proper space suit on, with some microwave thrusters (real: www.nasaspaceflight.com/2015/04/evaluating-nasas-futuristic-em-drive/) to help in navigation. "Sure," Jessica said. She had twisted around and was looking at a ship behind them. "But maybe wait a little longer. We'll need a few more seconds of momentum."

"Roger that, Just say when." He responded preparing the thruster systems for a landing angle.

Flip can't help but get a bit cocky, that pilot's self confidence rising to the surface. "Don't worry MJ, I won't let anything happen to you," he says as he pushes the controls to force the ship towards the other ship. His face showing concentration and focus as he tries the maneuver, gritting his teeth as he does.

Bridge
"And my ship too, I hope," Tawfeek said.
Foreman almost didn't pull off the buzz of the EVA vehicle. In reality, it was only the other guy that kept things from being worse than they could have.
However, it had the desired effect: the pod had slowed considerably.
In the process, they had come to the other side of the rock. The pips that were Jessica and Mensk were very close to the rock, while the Pooh Jihad had slowed considerably.
"What are you up to?" Tawfeek mumbled. "Foreman, get between them."
In space
"Any time, now," Jessica said. She was still looking back at the opposite ship.
In no time, the Galaxy loomed into view, the small sun glinting cinematically across its shiney-for-the-purpose-of-being-the-heroes-in-this-story solar panels.

"Aligning us now...impact in 5, 4, 3, 2...1" he braced and did what he could to keep both him and Jessica from any harm while landing. It should be a matter of a few selective hits of the suits thruster units to slow and angle the landing.

"Yes and the ship too," he says flatly. "Mensk and Jess too, promise."
In response to the captain he says, "so you want me to get between the rock and the ship with the guns? Sounds like a great plan All right you too hang on."
He guides the ship to do what the captain asks. "Think the Pooh picked up our people on radar," he asks the Captain.

On the Asteroid
The pair landed on the rock with a bit of a thunk. Thankfully, they didn't philae across it and into a crater wall.
"Plant it quick," Jessica says, militarily. She was already re-orienting herself back towards the Pooh Jihad. "Until the claim is made, we're at risk."
On the Bridge
The Pooh jihad just sat there, in relative terms, facing down the newly aligned Galaxy.
"Do not change position," Tawfeek says. "Even if fired upon."
As he finished speaking, the ship's lock-down alarms sounded. Tawfeek was sealing the ship against a breach.
"Come on Mensk. Before be remembers he's a pirate."

"On it..Planting now. If I only had a Phonebooth and a bag of Jelly Babies...we'd be right at home here." he responded working and putting the beacon in a spot it would be safe and sound. It was kid of nice to get out the ship.
(Rolls to plant the device?)

"I knew I should have brought my trauma kit." McKenna sputtered, checking her belts were tightly secured.
