Honey Lemon, tell me you're okay.

[ relieved ] Sí, you beat me to it. I heard your distress signal, are you guys okay?

We almost weren't. The Bishop is falling apart, but the First Breath came and covered us. As it stands, we're at minor burns and bruises, mostly.

Ay dios mio.

[ Honey Lemon is more inclined to speak in Spanish in times of great stress, but she sounds mostly just relieved. ]

We only got a little knocked around, honestly. We took some damage, but... I'm going to bake the crew of the First Breath a cake or something. I'm so glad you're okay, I don't think--

[ she doesn't finish it, but the "I don't think I could've handled losing you both" is pretty obvious if you know the situation. Which Hiro obviously does. ]

Do you need anything? I'm sure we could spare some... I don't know, parts, manpower, something if you need it.

I know. If it weren't for Tim... [he just sighs.] I'm glad he was there.

I think other ships are gonna end up needing the manpower. We have half the number of engineers that we do ships, and the Bishop has the Hamada Brothers [tm] to take care of it.

Okay. I'll put the engineering I've picked up in the lab to work over here for now.

[ It's not an insignificant amount, to be honest, especially when you add what she's watched the boys do here on the fleet. She's a quick study, what can she say? ]

Let me know if you need any help, though, okay, Hiro? Promise?
