Yerros
He barely noticed the heat now, quickly adjusting to the warm summer like heat.
Glen considered himself lucky he even remembered what summer on Earth had been like.
It wasn’t a major problem, all systems had at least two back up coolant lines hooked up in case anything happened, but it was better to fix it now then later.
E grinned as the blood rushed through his body and the rope bounced him up and down slightly.
He quickly found the offended coolant line and pulled on his work gloves.
It was then, as he gazed appreciatively at the mechanical marvel around him, that Glen realized something was very, very wrong.
Glen silently congratulated himself as he padded [s]silently[/s] down the hall. He was late, which was bad, but no one had seen him come in late so no one would call him on it, which was a miracle.
One more day late to work and he was going to lose his job for sure, and there weren't many jobs to be had on Mars ever since it become an outpost. There were even less transports to get you off the miserable planet if you'd made the mistake of staying when the last of the refugees were relocated to Yerros, the so-called new 'earth'.
Two steps at a time Glen made it to the air sealed door leading to the mechanic level. He punched in the code hurriedly and watched as the door unlocked and swung open. A wave of warm air washed over him. He stepped inside the airlock and waited as the door closed and he was thrown into total darkness for a moment. The low level lights of the airlock finally came on and with them the temperature began to rise.
He barely noticed the heat now, quickly adjusting to the warm summer-like heat.
Glen considered himself lucky he even remembered what summer on Earth had been like.
He didn’t stop and gape in awe as he had his first day here, [s]he[/s] because was past being amazed by the maze of walkways and machinery that descended downwards like some kind of upside down miniature skyscrapers.
Glen was glad he’d accidentally gone back to his rooms with his harness, if he fixed this now he could use it as an excuse for his late arrival.
