Meet Celeste at the Pilot's Station
I wait until tomorrow before heading to the Pilot's Station, both for my own safety and to avoid traveling late at night. But the second the sun is out in the sky on Gibson I'm making my way across the plains to Celeste. The station itself is half hangar and half barracks, I'm assuming for private training for pilots across the galaxy. Thankfully just because it is private doesn't mean they don't allow visitors I'm able to get past the entrance without any major problem. And thankfully...thankfully...
I see her.

Celeste can't help her mischevious grin.
She's sitting behind the receptionist desk, but when she stands up I can tell she's still just as fucking bad as she used to be. Perfect waist-hip-ratio, beautiful pair of lips and eyes, a chest while not as big as I'd want it to be has a set of perky tits I can see through her shirt.
"You actually did break out," she says when she sees me.
"And you actually remembered one of the incog planets."
{if celeste_rel >= 20}She moves herself from the desk and struts over to me, and for a second I think she's about to slap me. But her hands find my face and pull me in for a sensual kiss right in front of all of these other people.

That's my girl.
Her hand eagerly moves from my jaw to my chest, before pulling away with a harshness.
"We probably can't talk here."
"Yeah, probably."{endif}
{if celeste_rel < 19}She puts her hands on her hips and raises a brow. Before laughing to herself.
"We probably shouldn't talk here, huh?"
"Yeah, probably."{endif}
"Follow me, I know somewhere we can talk."
We end up at what I can only assume is her place. A small, nondescript apartment in the middle of the colony. I can tell she's holding herself back in terms of personalizing it, but it works for now. There, I tell her everything that happened hte past three years. Her brows raise when I bring up the Warden's wife. For a second I detect a hint of jealousy. By the end of it, I'm crossing my arms and leaning on the wall while she sits across from me.
"So, we getting out of here?"
"I don't know Sly..." she says, before standing up to meet me face to face, "What's your plan? You weren't always good at those."
"Plan's the same baby. Big scores. Getting enough credits to get out of the galaxy and to the outer worlds. For full total freedom."
"That's a pipe dream you know. Look where it landed you last time."
"Won't happen again. I made a mistake," trusted the wrong person, "But I'm here now. You're here. And we can get out of here."
She rests a hand on her chest.
"How do I know you aren't just going to get captured again? Leave me all on my lonesome," shit. I never really expected my capture to hurt her that bad. But Celeste was always the more emotional of the group. I need to convince her everything is still going to work out.
