OK - So where do you guys want to go now?
- You have got the ship working (ok, it's marginal - but it is physically working)
- You have not yet tried to remove the inserted software in the ships computer, but have reconnoitred it a bit. (Or you could go with just binning it and buying a new one)
- You have got a potential cargo and commission from Charlie Maputo (which has been ignored so far, with reason)
- You have Hebden's Stash (minus the items he's stolen back)
- Noor seems to be suspected of knowing something as a result of her Mother's role
- You have been attacked, searched, broken in to and appear to be on a kill list
How are you guys ever going to take control of your lives?
That's a really good question.

Sorry for being so absent, then coming back with a monster post.
The post on the main thread is IC, and the character’s concerns/grievance can be addressed IC. No PvP or party-splitting intended.
Nālani is annoyed that the ship was left uncrewed and only her paranoia put in place the little security we had. Now her paranoia is taking her too far. Probably.

Well, this should be interesting

Her hand stops as she tries to set it down, and she sighs deeply and closes her eyes. "Whatever else you are, you're not a quitter," she hears her mother's voice say in her head. It was one of her favorite homilies, and Indrani stares at the cabin bulkhead as she thinks about what to do next.
Interesting character revelations from this...
- Indrani has a mother - She wasn't decanted from a test tube
- Indrani hears voices. Or have I misconstrued this?

Um, no. She's remembering the many conversations. Regardless of her gestation method, I figured that she'd have some sort of mother figure in her life.

Sorry for the delay, I'm trying to catch up.
I'm reading in to all the games, and have the outline of my next post for this one. I'll insert some comments before Indrani goes to her room, then some to whoever is left in the commons.

I suck. Sorry about the absence. I'm recommitted, so if I'm still welcome, I'd like to post again.
The question I have for the queen is if that original VR stuff is still around. The one with the door and asteroid, if I recall.

Assana will confirm that it is.
And I'm glad you're still here!

I'm pausing Nālani's response to Indrani's hail to see how things go with Reven.

I'll need it. They like Running, Swimming, climbing...usually the Dog accompanies them for the first two (double win). This week it has to be me.
I wonder if you can text from A&E?

FYI - I have had a message from SpinwardMarch (a.k.a. Maggie).
She has determined to drop out of the game.
Henceforth, Maggie will be an NPC.
I'm looking into Thaco's continued involvement.

I believe Pranit's(?) Air/Raft was upside-down in the hangar after the boarding action. Is it usable? If so, is it faster than the Queen (for overtaking the train)?
