Oddball smiled at her again, noticing the box of books he knew in an instant that it must have been the girl he’d been speaking with. “I imagine ya couldn’ta. You must be Tanis then, yes?” He said then titling his head some. “I could help ya with those. Maa’dam… and there’s an easier way of getting’ them down the ladder too.” Since carry big ole heavy boxes weren’t an easy task necessarily anyway, and then even more so doing so down a straight ladder. The shiny engineers built the ship a little different than most. All the berths had both ladders leading from the top level down into the room, and had actual airlock doors on the second level of the ship. Most of the current crew didn’t use there’s, except in emergences, and he was sure some even forgot about them. Since the doors were, like a few other places on ship, hidden doors that had special mechanism to open them, those that didn’t know of them, would never guess at there existence; without an extreme close expectation. Many of the secret holds in the cargo bay floor and walls operated the same way. Although, using the other door, did mean carrying the boxes farther, but it would make it easier than lowering them down into the room.
