Long sense renowned for her firm but relatively gentle hand, Atlantis loved teaching. She loved sharing her knowledge with others. But this was was even she, with her endless patience, would consider "a hopeless case".
"Don't push off Tish, nothing will stop you unless your acted upon by an outside force!" She cried as said student pushed away from her and swung about violently before crashing into the wall.
"You can suit up in five minutes once you get the hang of it, Rudy." She said as the black kid struggled into his bulky white suit. She gave the arm a vigorous tug, allowing his fingers to wiggle their way out the end of the sleeve.
Out of all the tests, the chair was by far Atlantis' favorite. Some people passed, some didn't but almost all puked and she like her sisters took great pleasure out of watching them turn as green as a vegetable. "You've got 30 seconds Katherine." She said as she tightened the final strap.
"Understood." The human replied, giving her nose a pat.
Atlantis nudged her hand in response and backed away. "Start it up." She ordered the technician.
Slowly the chair began to spin, gaining speed with every rotation. "Come on Katherine you aren't a passenger now, you're a pilot!" Atlantis called. "Don't move your head left or right just concentrate on the stick."
Katherine pulled back on the controls. She'd stopped rolling but she still yawed far from side to side. "Come on Katherine, you can do it." Atlantis muttered.
"10 seconds!" The technician called out.
"Come on Katherine, fly it!" Atlantis cried.
Katherine tried to stabilize the chair but it was no use. Atlantis couldn't hide her disappointment as she ordered the technician to shut it off.
The human girl was glum as she stumbled out. She wasn't even pale, Atlantis had to give her that at least. Not many emerged from the chair the first time without looking at least a little bit off color. "I-I'm sorry Atlantis." She said.
"You'll get it." was the shuttle's stoic reply.
