<I don't know why her magic drugs want that either.>

"Okay, I unlocked it. I assume your magic drugs can do the rest."

"Yup! Sorry to alarm you, something I'm doing must be time-sensitive or I'd stay to explain more."

"No... problem."

<We're following them.>

<All of us?>

< - you, me, Feerian. Everyone else should get out of here, I don't know how they tracked us down but we shouldn't stay here.>

Pelape gives no sign of awareness of the tail as she heads for the shuttle, whistling and occasionally smooching Kefin on the cheek.

"I don't suppose there's any point in worrying you don't know how to fly alien spaceships."

"I would have expected an hiccup with that too! But apparently it's not an issue somehow. Maybe it's got really good autopilot."

"Okay." Kiss. 

The spaceship is cloaked and in a closed-off corner of a parking lot.

She walks right into it and finds the door. Nobody's looking. In she goes.

Sure.

Also some very unobtrusive insects.

Pelape considers the controls, of which there are... few.

"Well, I can't make heads or tails of this so I assume it's controlled telepathically and we were followed."

<Where are you going?>

"Uh - oh, you're not gonna like this. You're gonna hate this, I'm so sorry. I'm gonna go up to the same orbit as the big Yeerk ship and hail it."

< - that's a terrible plan.>

"Yes, you absolutely shouldn't try it when no one aboard is on a lot of magic drugs. But this time it'll work."

<I haven't seen any magic.>

"The only magic on her right now aside from the luck drugs is the translation spell and it's not the kind of translation spell where it's obvious it's magic, it'd be technically possible she just spoke every language you did."

<That would not be possible for a human.>

"I dunno, there's a human one of Kefin. Try me on languages if you like."

The computer starts playing ...audiobooks, apparently. 

Which she translates as they go.

<Do you have the translation effect too?>
