There was a dull shout and a sharper thump as Wash's body hit the floor of the cockpit at Leto's appearance through the open shuttle door.
"I'm awake! I'm not sleeping! It's thinking, really intense thinking!" Wash said automatically, his mind with Mal suddenly.
He rose from the floor and turned sharply staring for a bit at the luminescent blue eyes with his mouth open.
"L-leto! Right! The guy who called! About--yeah! The flyers! Okay. Yes. Come in. Sit," he said with a point to the seat next to the pilot's.
"Wash," he said, introducing himself needlessly with a hand out. "This is shuttle 2. I gotta think of a better name," he muttered sitting down and situating himself. He flipped small levers above his head and the small craft started to hum.
"Uh, you're new here, right?" he said looking at him with an expression of question.
