Stasis Page #3

-I want you to keep on driving.

-You can't get rid

of me that easily.

-Look, let me put this blunt to you, guy.

Stay away.

I never want to see you again ever.

-Fine!

If that's the way you want to be about it.

-It is!

-No, Matt! Don't listen to her!

How did I get in here?

Why can't you see me?

Look, I don't know what's going on,

I'm gonna try to find

out how to make it right.

-Don't be a stranger.

Excuse me, do you know the way

to the Piccadilly Circus?

Too late.

They've run out

of Blackbird pie.

-My God!

It is you.

-Hi, Lancer.

Surprise!

Wow, you hit the jackpot. Where did

you find that vessel?

-At some sort of fraternity

hazing ritual, gone south.

you know, and I thought my

vessel was young.

-Yeah, I know, drug overdose.

Can you believe?

-I'm sorry.

I mean...that's actually sad, poor kid.

-Yeah.

So, what are you gonna do?

I don't know, I

can't just leave.

Because the kid would be gone, and

the mom will come searching for me.

-And create a bunch of unwanted attention.

Exactly. You know HQ needs to

really work in refining the jump system.

I know selections are limited.

But this? This is ridiculous.

-Maybe somebody at

base camp will have some ideas. Hmm?

-Yeah.

-We should probably go check in.

-Yes let's go.

-You folks lost or something?

-Uh, is...is this the

way to Piccadilly Circus ?

-You're too late.

We're done run out of Blackbird pie.

-We'll come back yesterday,

before they're all gone.

-You must be new, I don't

recognize those skins.

-Agent Lancer.

-Agent Seattle.

-Agent Derby. Welcome to our

little corner of paradise.

-Um, we've seen worse.

-Don't get me wrong. It's

better than being Uptime.

But I heard that the Pacific

unit is in a mansion in Bel Air.

Bel Air!

Whose ass do you have to

kiss to get that assignment?

We should put this on the

list for the next jump..

-Let's get through this one first.

-Oh, you got stuck

with a kid, huh?

Too bad. You should ask the

captain for a new skin.

-You can do that?

-Well, let me tell you, I've

seen some really bad jumps over the years.

One vessel was

decapitated in a car accident.

That was messy

-OK, I get it.

-See? The kid thing is sounding

better and better all the time.

-Wanna trade?

-No, thanks.

-Agent Seattle? Agent Lancer.

-Sir.

-I'm Captain Suthers. Thank you for making

the jump on such short notice.

We're happy to help.

How is the 21st century

treating you so far?

-I can't complain, the air is clean.

-Oh, have you tried orange juice?

It's amazing.

-Enjoy it while it lasts.

Come on, I'll give

you the Nickel tour.

While some other

stations are more

of your typical bang

and burn operation,
