Captain's log - 2011 AD, Feburary 24th - 0500 hours
I remember well the day when I first gained my superpower, when I met my guest for the first time.
The moon shone bright in the night sky, I think that was when things were decided the way they were. I could have gone down other paths.
But supported as I was by my friends on the chilly night, I gazed upon the moon and I found myself remembering when things were right. Of watching the moon landing video, of the discussions of Sphere's plans to build colonies in space, on the moon and further away.
I recalled the disaster, of the icarus tinker fallen.
I gazed at the moon and knew I desired it.
That was the start of everything.
A heady combination of powers, an otherworldly guest, and a desire to fly to the moon. And then I found out the things that I could do with my guest, of the necessary materials needed to forge the wonders to take me there.
Had it been that long? Had it been almost two months as I fed my dreams to my guest, and harvested motes of essence from the ambient emotions of my classmates?
My project was ready, and thus I find myself skipping school, or planning such. To stand here on this chilly dawn on the outskirts of the city and looking at the moon as it descended on the horizon.
The deployment of my flying fortress was a quiet affair, and I'm sure one that was noted by those who were looking to the north of the city.
My goblin friends were already manning their stations, when I stepped on to the bridge and sat on the captain's seat with a perfect view of my objective.
The silvery white half crescent of the waning moon filled the screen.
"Gentlemen, fly me to the moon~" I said with a laugh as The Alexandria lifted off from the hilltop.
As we soared into the heavens, the voice of a man long dead over a decade ago sang in the bridge. A mere recording, but it was appropriate.
o/~ Fly me to the moon
And let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars~ o/~
This was going to be the start of a good day.

Writer's notes : Ever wonder what it would be like if Taylor wasn't such a hardworker who wanted to be a cape in Goblin Queen?
Have a Taylor who hews to journeys and has maxed out the Way Grace instead of the Ring Grace.
Please note that this is extremely non-canonical and is more a what-if than an actual part of the story.
