Corgan stared at her for a minute, . He thought about Arccos. She seemed different than the girl he first met. Maybe it was just all the different bodies. It was disconcerting not knowing which body housed her original brain. He wasn't sure if being attracted to a Freespacer was such a great idea. A Nepleslian girl was easier to understand. Was he still even a Nepleslian himself with the mindware in him, or was he closer to a type three? He came back to the present and took another drink.
"The bunker.. doesn't have to be inside the hangar. Wait, that's backward, isn't it? The way I picture it there's a big cargo elevator leading down to the bunker, big enough for four or five vehicles. Maybe several elevators. The top is just the hangar and facilities to repair and maintain the ship. Then, the elevator leads down into the main base. Maybe a three-story structure, one at ground level and two under the ground. There's gotta be some way to get vehicles into the base from ground level too." He said, looking down into his glass thoughtfully.
A few seconds later he looked up again. "A tunnel in the side of the butte leading to the above ground level. We'll keep the vehicles, armory, engineering and control room on the bottom floor. Living quarters, bathrooms, kitchen, recreation and mess hall in the middle. Top floor will have the offices, fabrication, and maintenance. Maybe a hydroponics room to grow some food, so we don't need to get food deliveries every week?" He noticed she had spoken again, just not to him. Probably getting bored with his rambling about bases.
Looking around to see who she was talking to revealed Uso and a little farther down Errowyn, Cyrus's girl. He couldn't blame her. Those two were much more interesting than he was, even he would admit that. "Can't you kittens turn off your super kidney powers for a little bit?" Corgan called out curiously. "Why would you even want free drinks if you don't feel it?"
