The lift doors open and you practically fall through the doorway with Eshami, both of you desperate to escape the now-awkward confines of the cramped elevator that brought you speeding up the shaft to the Control Room.
“Uh, sorry, Eshami,” you whisper, embarrassed.
“I hope you guys had a good honeymoon,” Olear laughs while waving a high-tech wrench at you teasingly. “We’ve still got work to do, so rest up and then get back out there!”
Olear was kind enough to prepare a corner of the room just for you two to rest. Your bedrolls are already laid out and extra rations are neatly piled.
“Thanks, Olear Dom,” you say, crawling into your bed for a quick nap before pressing onward. “You’re a good man.”
