"Yeah, it is," she agreed. As they walked she could feel the tension rising, as if there was a megamont* walking along on a lead behind them, and growing larger. Her fingers figetted against his hand she suddenly realised, stopping it quickly. There was no way she could put it off for much longer - her mind whirling with the stories she'd heard come back across the space between the two vessels, events twisted and distorted by the retelling.
And then there were the facts. She had to wonder which version he had heard.
