But then they were generally a species who really liked their creature comforts, something that had only gotten more entrenched in the Tirolian psyche with the rise of the Robotech Masters. “Unfortunately,” Lisa agreed wishing she could stay in this bed all day as well - one of the really good things that you could say about the Tirolians was that they made the best beds in the entire galaxy. “Already,” he replied sleepily before doing that adorable – at least to her – joint yawn-stretch thing that he did every morning. “Rick its oh six hundred time for us to get up.” Rick’s blue eyes flickered open. “Rick,” she said drawing a soft groan out of him. Wishing she didn’t have to wake him but knowing that she had to as they both had duty this morning, though they both wouldn’t have to go on duty for nearly three hours yet, she gently reached over and shook his shoulder. It felt good to both of them to be sleeping with the other half of their soul once again – even if they technically were not married right now, though if they got their way that would change soon enough. Then she turned and glanced next to her to see the very welcome sight of Rick lying there as he had done for the last few days, ever since completing basic training and being assigned to a squadron, though in a surprising difference to the old timeline he was assigned to Wolf Squadron instead of Skull. Reluctantly she reached out and silenced the alarm before waving a hand over a sensor causing the rooms lights to slowly start coming on. Groaning slightly Lisa opened her eyes slowly and glared at the offending device on the bedside table, especially the flashing red characters that indicated that it was indeed oh six hundred hours. ~~~///~~~ Chapter Nineteen Senior Officers Quarters Hidden Robotech Factory Satellite Arcturus System The insistent electronic bleeping of an alarm clock echoed through the spacious quarters on the factory station that Lisa Hayes had claimed as her own, at least on a temporary basis while the stations systems had finally completed their nearly month long repair/refit/upgrade of the SDF-1 nobody had yet been cleared to go back aboard the battlefortress they were still learning the upgraded and newly installed systems – some of which were even new to the time travellers – as well as learning the new layout as the refit had almost doubled the size of the ship. So, without further ado let’s crack on with the story chapter events take place approximately two weeks after the previous chapter. Author Notes: Hi everyone guess you all thought that this story had been abandoned since it hadn’t been updated in over a year but good news it hasn’t been it just got itself stuck, once again, in the linguistic quagmire of writers block as I had somewhat backed myself into a corner story wise though in my last reread – which I tend to do from time to time especially if I leave a story alone for a while – I figured away out of it and this chapter was born. Thus, please continue to keep the legal attack dogs – also known as lawyers – firmly muzzled and on a leash as I have no money to give to anyone. Chapter Nineteen Second Chances Disclaimer: I do not own the characters that I am about to mangle around for my own amusement, sadly all Robotech characters remain the property of Harmony Gold, I am merely borrowing them and make absolutely no profit from their use.
