“We must be entering Harmonian airspace,” John said, and for some reason this made him laugh softly to himself. Such behavior in the face of imminent death paints a disturbing portrait of my one-time partner.

Fleur sauntered up and stood beside me. Her hand was hot on my thigh as she squeezed a coded message that we needed to hurry.

“Hey John,” I said. “After you restart the engines we’re gonna get some pancakes!” The man had a weakness for carbs.

“Pancakes?” he scoffed. “You think I’ll betray my orders for a mere plate of pancakes? Why, I wouldn’t restart the engines for anything, not even a tapestry of golden bees.”

“We have one of those, you know,” said Fleur. “Every Contrarian airship has a bee tapestry. That’s where the chef gets the honey to drizzle on the pancakes.”

“Honey-topped pancakes?” John said, intrigued in spite of himself. “Tell me more.”
