George’s Terraformative notes:Adam and the others finally ping on a planet that could be paradise. He wants them to leave to give it one last shot.
…
“It’s humanity at stake, that’s all,” Adam said.
“No pressure.” Lucy glanced at Freddy.
“It is pressure. It’s the only thing that matters.”
Freddy scrubbed a knuckle over his scarred eyebrow. “We’ve been down this road before, Adam.”
“Then we give up?” Adam tossed out his arms. “What has our entire life been about if not this? This is all we trained for. This is all we know.”
NOTES:
FRicci: Would Lucy and Freddie be fighting Adam this hard? Or would they want to take this mission too? None of them even sound like this anymore. Maybe in the early books, but not now. UGH. I need George, but he said he was too tired today, and I’m running out of time. I have no idea what I’m doing. I can’t do this. Maybe I should just type one hundred thousand words of “all work and no play make Frankie a dull girl” and see if the publisher notices. I should just quit now before this got too far. I can’t do this alone.
HEvans: You’re being rather hard on yourself. Also, was that a movie reference? I thought you didn’t do movies.
FRicci: Who is this?!
HEvans: The deus ex machina ;p Did I just hear you yelp? I’ll give you one guess.
FRicci: Really, Harrison?
HEvans: How’d you know?
FRicci: Because it says HEvans.
HEvans: That’s because now you’re in heaven, love.
FRicci: If you heard that, it was the sound of gagging. And for the record,The Shiningwas a novel long before it was a movie.
HEvans: Ah, I would never know such trivia because I’m just a beautiful actor, too dumb to know about … what did you call it a nobel? Noovle?
FRicci: I never said you were dumb.
HEvans: Ah, so you think I’m beautiful?
FRicci: Such modesty. Just explaining how I got theall work, no playreference. I don’t live in a total bubble. Tell me you didn’t choose that username name on purpose?
HEvans: A delightful coincidence, I assure you.
FRicci: Back to the real issue, buddy.
HEvans: Books being made into visual media and the impossible expectations?
FRicci: Don’t distract me with a good debate. HOW DID YOU GET IN HERE?!
HEvans: No need to growl. Do I need to worry about you too, Frankie? You gave me a spare key. Remember two-week trial period?
FRicci: Too soon to make a joke about bad memory.
HEvans: You’re right. Showbiz has given me gallows humor.
