Work Text:

"I don't recognise that planet," mused Odin, "Is Algol supposed to have an extra planet like that?"

"I have no idea, Odin, because I have no idea where we are," Lutz sighed, "For all I know, we could be outside of Algol by now. We can't even get the thing to stop moving at top speed."

"Are you still sore at me about this plan not exactly working out? It made sense in theory," said Odin, "And we could still end up in Lassic's Palace!"

"We're going so fast, we're likely to crash into it before we see it."

"That's fine, right? We'd probably do a lot of damage to the enemy that way. Lassic certainly wouldn't expect it! And we can use the Magic Flute to escape. Probably. I mean, we don't know for sure it DOESN'T work in space!"

"Any luck talking Hapsby into going back on his usual flight path?" Lutz asked Alis.

She shook her head, "The main problem is, Odin got Myau to do it. Myau, of course, changed the robot's language to Cat. And now, Myau, of course, being a cat, is fast asleep and won't wake up."

"What an exciting adventure!" Odin declared.
