	That's because I've got forward momentum. There's no virtue in it. It's just a balancing act. I don't dare stop.

"You stole a groundcar from Imperial Security?" Miles chokes out, swaying slightly. Alright, so he's overestimated how easy walking would be, but dammit, he's ready to get out of here. He reevaluates just how pissed Simon is going to be after he hears about this whole affair and actually cringes.

"Nothing all that bad," he says, testing his weight, and finds himself steady enough, even if he hasn't yet caught his breath. "Fast-penta just does a hell of a number on me. I think we'd better get moving, eh?"

"I didn't steal it, I borrowed it," and she has the nerve to sound prim when she says it.

She nods, but waits a few moments more til he's steady on his feet. "There's what looked like a communications room not far from here, just down the hall."

It's an eerily quiet hall and tho Lara is sure she'd cleared the building, she still keeps the crowbar in hand.

Post-fast-penta and unarmed, Miles is not-so-secretly glad for the crowbar in Lara's hand while he's still catching his breath.

"Thought I saw that when they dragged me in here," he pants, limping alongside her. "If I can get any of the outgoing coms working -- I think I've got an override that'll work -- then we can get the hell out of here, and I can start filling out the paperwork for that groundcar." Because lord, will there ever be paperwork. Miles is struck with a sudden, hypo-hysterical giggle. "I really had hoped to introduce you to my boss under better circumstances, Lara, I promise."
