Boundless - Engineering/Maintenance

The call for engines to come to full power rolls through the engineering section like a wave. Crewmen repeat it a few times in each section, a cascade that brings them all to a unified front. The thrum of the generators and power plants of the Boundless howl with power as the main reactor seems to almost crackle with energy. In fact it does as the main observation port, though heavily tinted to protect biological eyes, allows Lark to see the fusion reaction taking place inside the chamber. He knows that the reactor walls are more there to keep the heat contained, rather than the reaction itself which is conducted inside a magnetic bottle. Still, this is his first time seeing a fusion reactor this size this close. The tint colors the view of the inside taking it from a bright white to a searing gold, a miniature star held in the heart of the starship.

"Engineering, this is the bridge, we're bringing main sublight online."

Lark can hear the call from where he sits and watches as 'Debbie' hits a comm button. "Copy, bridge. Sublight and main hyperdrive is available." She clicks off the comm and a few scattered bits of applause echo around Main Engineering causing the Devaronian to look up with a sharp-toothed scowl. "Oh, yes, congratulate yourselves on not fucking up a launch. Get back to work." Apparently she is -that- kind of boss.
