"So are we going to measure it, or wait for something to happen?"
Sidney looked to Trent expectently.

She nodded, following him.
"Alright."
Sidney had not yet had the time to fully unpack everything she had brought from Geneva, 90 percent of which was the stuff Trent had bought her.
"How long are we gonna be there?"

"Only for the night, we won't even sleep over there. It'd be a to and fro."
He rummaged through a bag.

"We should get some practice in first, then." Trent said with a smile as he pulled out a cardkey.
"The one I've got comes with jet travel as well.. though that part works on autopilot so you don't need to worry about that.

He handed her the cardkey.
"Do you want me to be there with you? I was thinking of taking a nap, and hoping you'd join me once you refreshed on your controls.."

"Yes, I would like it if you could."
Somehow, she felt that having Trent by her side would help to relax any tension she would experience.

"Alright. we'll nap together afterwords then." Trent said with a smile as he guided Sidney out tot he back to a fancy hovercar, its shell emulating that of old Americana 1950's 'electric razor' cars.
"I know it looks alittle tacky.." Trent admitted.

Sidney stared at it. She was unused to such wildly stylized vehicles, so she couldn't help but gape a little at the design.
"Its...wow..." she said. "You have...er, interesting taste."

"Heh.." Trent chuckled nervously.
"Well, the interior's still modern, so go ahead and hop in."
