À la seconde

Successful intercept:

This mission zoomed from base to the wormhole entrance in Arlington
System,
via Davis Constellation, with only one mechanical. Made rendezvous
with
centurions in Lexington System, near a luna for the sale of plantoid
life forms.

The century peloton pursued its own pace while
Cloudbuster's pace was reduced by wormhole incompatibility, so the
rendezvous was brief, although Dreadflint kindly circled back to join
the rendezvous group. Then all headed to the fort for rations
provided by Metoikos (and rather unpleasant wings), plus ship exchange
and stunt rollerskating by the Fleet Admiral.

Successful intercept x 2:

Upon arriving at the fort for MRC, Retard found would-be centurion
Dreadflint gazing disconsolately at the fork and hull of
OneNightStand, the two having parted company at Concord System.
Forthwith the two pilots began an early intercept sortie, with
Dreadflint remounted on YerMom. Blazing a trail of lasers and groove
through the desolate suburbs, they met the century again at Concord
System. Plus they got cheesecake and key
lime pie.
