Firstly, thank you for a really excellent comic and storyline. This is my 4th readthru and I am -still- picking up nuanced points!
This is why pilots eject in their seats. As much as anything it provides some protection on their rear. As a sideways note, the Convair B58 Hustler crew ejected in pods.
In context, it is probably a good thing that Dolly did not accompany Lynn. Gavin has enough firepower and paranoia that even Dolly might not have survived contact, and without a Q-drive to hand, or time/opportunity to use one, would have resulted in the permanent loss of Dolly. This is a point that might be made (much) later?
Thanks Again.
