"I think you are right, well you are the expert, take us safe to the ground." he said with a smile. His helmet was beside him, so his face was clearly visible.

He thought about her comment on sleeping, he only shook his head. "I appreciate the thought but I will be fine. I've always found it hard to sleep on a mission. Maybe I'll doze off while reading." he said pulling out the book once more. "Or finish it by the time we jump."<br/><br/>He resumed his reading while making small notes at the edge of the page, mostly of facts he thought interesting and worth investigating later. The pencil scratched lightly over the old page, the sound it did barely audible even to him over the roar of the engines. While reading, he idly tapped his thigh with the pencil.
