Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away
If you can use some exotic booze
There's a bar in far Bombay
Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away.
Come fly with me, let's float down to Peru.
In llama land there's a one-man band
And he'll toot his flute for you.
Come fly with me, let's take off in the blue.
Up there, where the air is rarified,
We'll just glide, starry-eyed.
Once I get you up there, I'll be holding you so near
You may hear angels cheer
'Cause we're together, weather-wise, it's such a lovely day!
Just say the words and we'll beat the birds
Down to Acapulco Bay;
It's perfect for a flying honeymoon, they say.
Come fly with me! Let's fly, let's fly away.

Come Fly With Me, Frank Sinatra
written by Sammy Cahn and James Van Heusen
from the album Come Fly With Me (Capitol Records, 1958)

Power idea: Lets the Loon and one other person who he'd want to take on a honeymoon (i.e. Shadowwalker) fly to the closest of the three locations mentioned in the song, arriving at the song's end, and gives them both protection from atmospheric effects. Won't work for just Doug. Only works on Earth (no using this song to go from Lundmark's Nebula to Tellus in less than five minutes, for example). Ending the song early leaves Doug and Maggie in the air partway to the destination...

them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of
the same sovereign, servants of the same law."

Okay, important safety tip. Don't end the song midway through.

Workable, workable. I could see possibly using this, under the right conditions...
