The sun shone modestly across the Earth, sending light refracting through the gaps in between the light clouds; despite the cloud cover of eight oktas, it managed to discover a ripple within the patchwork, and blind pedestrians. Escaping from the pew, being more formal than Corbin, and her elongated, dusky gardening boots- that had a mane of faux fox fur at its entrance- clicking at contact with the stone deck, she trudged through the kempt grass, wary to get ticks for they were in their apex (March to October) even though she knew that the cleaning staff had sprinkled a silty powder along the terrain to dehydrate them . All her life, she had despised the emotions and anxiety achieved when she encountered ticks and fleas, as they would summon nasty rashes: Corbin often joked about her being allergic to them when she proudly stated to medical employees that she had no known allergies. As she stepped along the pathway of greenery and onto the surprisingly steep terrace, where a rocket were to be nested, her footfall embedded light depressions into the flora. Using the launch platform as a shortcut to her place, she hauled herself up the towering, reinforced concrete stairs- pulling herself up with the copper railing at its side: it had bracelets of nails every decimeter. After scaling numerous stairs (about twenty) she appeared at the flat baseplate that was the top- the only noticeable difference being the tiles on the floor changing into an industrial white from the metals added to survive the heat from blasts- and scurried to the middle to decrease the chances of her being discovered up there and possibly threatened with a warning; this was technically trespassing, but it was like biking on the pavement- just respect pedestrians and people are okay with it. At the same placement a vessel would rest in a few months time, she stood, and stared mundanely at the bleak monolith, that she constructed and criticized rocket examples. It was segmented thrice like an upright ant, and, within the indents, floodlights dispersed from the claustrophobic cacophony of stairs, that connected each cube (that was like the shade of a carnivorous crow) to the other. To actually make it visible during dusk, the plumage system (pipes) were cladded in a plumage of neon orange paint, and acted as an outline; using them to support oneself, installers had spraypainted legal graffiti and symbols across the sides of the walls, only to abandon their projects for an indefinite amount of time.
