She figured that there had to be something that they had that would help Fayre with anything that she needed. Poppy had a feeling that there were things that were going on in her life, which was why she wanted to be able to be free her from the torment that she had from her immortality. Poppy knew what it was like to be able to live forever when she knew what it was like to watch all of the ones that she loved and cared for grow old without her.
She let out a heavy sigh as she stared at the computer screen and scrolled through all of the ancient artifacts that S.H.I.E.L.D had in their storage. She knew that they had something that would help her friend with everything that she had going on, but the more that she went through everything, the more that she realized that it wasn't the case. That they didn't have anything that was going to be able to help her change what it was that had happened to her. There had to be something that she could've been able to do to help her, no matter what it was that she would've had to do in order to help her.
The woman glanced over toward the device that Carol had given her and she clenched her jaw. She knew that she would've been able to contact the woman and she would've been able to talk to her about what it was that she would've been able to do for Fayre. There had to be something that Carol could do for her, and she knew that there had to be something alien out there. Alien technology had to help them in one way or another, and if it couldn't, she didn't know what the hell she was going to do in order to help her friend – and if she couldn't help her friend, she felt as if she wasn't going to be able to help anyone that she cared about at all.

The dark-haired woman held the device in her hand and she pressed the device to call Carol, and when she watched it go through, her heart lept. She stared at the blonde-haired woman and she tilted her head to the side with a smile. Carol stared at her for a few seconds, before the other woman knew that there was something wrong and that she had called her for a moment.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "What's going on?" Carol questioned as she stared at the other woman, clenching her jaw for a few seconds. "Did something happen? Are you okay?"
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Poppy nodded her head as she stared at the other woman for a few seconds, before she cleared her throat, "I was wondering if you would be able to help me with something because I've hit a wall," Carol nodded her head as she stared at Poppy, and the dark-haired woman let out a heavy sigh. "My friend, Fayre, has been attempting to figure out a way to rid herself of her immortality, but we don't have any technology or relics in S.H.I.E.L.D's archives that can help us . . . so I was wondering –"
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "So you were wondering if I could go out and search for something that would be able to help you help her," Carol finished for her, and Poppy nodded her head as she stared at her. The two of them were in silence for a few seconds, and Poppy gave the other woman a small smile as she stared at her. "I can see what I can do, Poppy. I do have a little bit of downtime with the work that I'm doing with the Skrulls, so I'll see if I can figure something out for you."
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "Thank you so much, Carol," Poppy spoke as she stared at the other woman before she pressed her lips together for a few moments. She didn't know what to say to her for a few more moments, but she knew that she had to say something. She knew that she couldn't just leave the other woman hanging with what it as that she was thinking, but she knew that she had to say something about how she felt about the woman in front of her. But she knew that she had to say something to her in person, and she had to figure out how she was going to be able to see her. "Do you think, that you would be able to travel back to Earth for a day? So that I would be able to see you and talk to you in person? Don't get me wrong, I like these conversations, but I would like to see you."

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Carol stared at her for a few seconds, before she flashed Poppy a smile, "I'll try and figure something out for you, alright? But I should get a head start on figuring out where I can find that device to help Fayre. And I'll make sure to bring it to you myself."
Poppy nodded her head to the other woman for a few seconds, before the connection between the two of them was cut short. The dark-haired woman sat there in front of her computer and let out a heavy sigh, and that was when Goose jumped into her lap. The Flerken chirped as it rubbed it's head against her chest and Poppy glanced down to the alien creature. She couldn't help but reach down and scratch its ears and she smiled to herself as she pets the Flerken.
The S.H.I.E.L.D agent stared at her computer screen for a few seconds longer, before she began to log out of her system and she shut everything down. She sat back in her seat for a few moments as she stared at a framed image that she had of her and Carol and she clenched her jaw. There were a few moments as she was lost in her thoughts as she stared at the image and she let out a heavy sigh.
All she could hope for was that Carol was going to be able to find something, and quick. Because she wanted to be able to see her, as well as help Fayre, as quickly as she could.

Starlight Antiquities
There is a place in the galaxy that deals in antiquities of all kinds, human and non-human alike. Its inventory of artifacts is colossal as is its inventory of mercs who they hire to acquire any artifact a client may wish that is yet to come into their possession. The ill-reputable business is constantly rubbing against the changing tolerance of the Union's government, and there are many security officers who would love nothing better than to vaporize the whole place with its owners inside. Yet, there are many tasks that nobody can do better, especially in the vastness of deep space where Union law is worth less than the energy needed to display it. One of its jobs involves finding an artifact that may not only hold the future of the human race but may also disturb the balance of the whole galaxy. *** While waiting for the next season of Mandalorian and the Witcher, and rewatching Firefly for the gazillionth of time, I decided to write this space-based series. The series has some litRPG elements in it, but it does not read like one. So, you won't run into any blue screens here. Yet, I wanted to use litRPG to give another dimension to this whole story and make it as unique as possible. This is a work-in-progress. Hope to keep on improving and fixing my mistakes as I go along.
