Snippet #2816173

The Oberon crew continues to stand as if under inspection, and Paul responds to the intruder's gesture by opening the inner airlock. He noticed the gravity as it pulled him rather suddenly down to the floor, but he couldn't imagine for the life of him why it had happened and preferred not to guess. He would understand in a bit. He motions toward his head and pantomimes putting on a helmet, asking the intruder if he and his crew may do so, as he assumes that they would want them out of the ship. He continues to telecommunicate with his crew, and again begins to feel slight panic that he does his best not to show.
