Thar She Blows - [Closed]
Characters: Crow and 90s Kid for now; maybe more later
Content: One robot and one dumb kid go out space whale-watching...what could possibly go wrong?
Location: Starting at the Launch Deck, going outside
Time of day: Near evening
Warnings: None so far, but considering the pods' passengers, things will undoubtedly go wrong...
It wasn't that often that Crow (or Tom for that matter) bothered to go outside the Satellite. Mostly because, when you got down to it, space was kinda boring. But it definitely wasn't boring when there were space whales flying about! He knew Mike would never be up for something like this, as his own ventures in space had not ended well, but at least he was able to drag along that noisy 90s Kid!
The launch deck was now prepped for a subpod to head out. Crow sat in the driver's seat of the subpod, because at least he knew how to drive it. Not very well mind you, but at least it wasn't like Tom's driving. He bounced a bit with anticipation...his plan was to take pictures and make millions selling them to National Geographic, and maybe also pretend to be Space Captain Ahab for awhile.

"Dude what?" Crow sighed...and then caught sight of the massive whale in the ship's rearview mirror, fast approaching them. And most importantly, fast approaching them with its mouth wide open.
"WuuuuhhhhAAAAAAAAA! Immediate and prompt EVASIVE ACTIOOOON!" Crow yelled, and tried to steer the small subpod out of the way. Unfortunately for the both of them, the subpod wasn't quite as fast as the whale...at least at things like bank turns. Just as Crow was starting to get the ship to head out of the way, the whale caught up and closed its massive mouth right over the subpod.

"We're dead. We're dead we're dead we're dead we're so dead."
Then it slowly caught up to him. He didn't feel any different. There wasn't even any heavenly light he found himself approaching. Or any light, for that matter.
Slowly he lowered his hands, blinking his eyes open to see the headlights of the subpod staring down the whale's throat.
"Whoah..."

"Oh we're not gonna die. At least, I won't, I'm not organic and all!" He was pretty sure space whales couldn't digest robots, anyway. But Mike would probably yell at him if he didn't bring that kid back in one piece, so he should probably get them both out of here.
"Make sure you're buckled this time!" Crow warned as he locked the subpod's weapons. They weren't anything special -mostly used for blasting space debris that they could run into- but it would probably be useful enough here.
Just before the ship got to the back of the throat, Crow fired the ship's guns. The shot went into the roof of the whale's mouth, and they got a violent reaction as a result. The whale roared in pain, causing the ship to vibrate dangerously from the surrounding sound. However, the whale also opened its mouth to roar, presenting a path to freedom!
