readingredheadOkay, so I'm writing this for me to understand how I want the next part of my story to go down, as they say. Kes is onboard a shuttle meant to take her to her friend who's already up at college. But the shuttle's going to get taken over by "space pirates." My problem? I don't know why these people are hijacking a silly little insystem shuttle which has to travel in real space and time because it doesn't have a warp drive anyway! But, here's a list of ideas...
--- the hijackers are stupid and don't realize that the shuttle lacks a warp drive -- their effort to take over the ship is just really inept.
--- they're terrorists
--- they're representatives of one side of a planetary civil war being fought elsewhere -- they hijack the ship because the leader of their opposition is going to be onboard and they want him dead or as a hostage
--- they're doing like pirates used to do -- take all the money and run
--- they are just about as out of ideas as I am
On a (probably) unrelated note, my left lower eyelid has been twitching for the last few weeks.
