Chapter 1: Taxi to Runway 22R, via 8L

Lapis Lazuli Riviera is the Captain of American Airlines flight twenty-five. At 5 A.M on a scheduled eighteen hour departure from Miami to Tokyo via Dallas, Lapis meets her curious co-pilot named Peridot Olivine. She also shares the company of a second officer named Pearl Rochambeau, and a third officer named Amethyst Valdez. Together, they endure the rigorous hardships of being in the dark about Camp Pining Hearts theories, not getting enough sleep, and desperately needing a better breakfast.a

Though the stupendously long flight would take a toll on their sanity, these four exhausted pilots just might make it work between themselves.
