Excerpt:
A frustrated Tilly was a difficult Tilly to be stuck with in a five by five room. Michael reached out a hand to take the communicator from her. "You're just going to piss off the commander if you call her one more time," Michael said honestly. Tilly rolled her eyes but relinquished the device.
"Just because you're right doesn't mean you need to be so… right," she replied, trailing off with a lackluster conclusion to her argument. Michael smiled regardless, that slight tip of her lips that was so endearing to Tilly. Letting out a sigh, Tilly turned and leaned her back against the lift wall so that she could face Michael fully.
"You checked the manual override, yeah?" Tilly blurted out. It wouldn't hurt to double check that they had done everything that they could on their end.
