Colonial Dysfunction [1.25 Days Until Arrival | Malfunctions]
cromartini:
Bobby continiues to patrol the storage room
Juncoph:
Geo resignedly sighs, and attempts to stand. While dizzy, he manages to stay on his feet.
"The gas hasn't worn off, but I'll stay awake. It's quite obvious that the ship's run into issues, judging by what you've told me. Judging by the fact that we're still alive, it's safe to presume that the root of this situation wasn't someone--or something--with murderous intent. You- er, Jack- the ship's primary atmospherics systems probably aren't at any serious risk. My biggest concern is the cryonics- you two got out safely, but it was little more than luck that saved me. I can't say I actually remember it, but the scabs on my fingertips tell me that I was conscious in there at some point, and I realized that I needed to get out. It's possible that the cycling mechanism got caught in a loop somewhere, and as a result, I was taken off the gas for a while. Eventually, though, the cycling system self-terminated, and the pod resumed regular function... save for, of course, the actual cryonics."
He sighs again, with a slightly more exasperated demeanor, and continues:
"You two, statistically speaking, probably weren't the first to wake up. If there is an active crewman aboard already, we should initially assume that he's a threat, judging by the fact that if he exists, he's made few efforts towards reviving the rest of us. I suppose contingency states that I'm currently the big fish, so it's time to get to work, boys. We're going to go to automaton storage and get ourselves a small army of helpers, which we'll use to deal with the cryonics problem."
Man Of Greenish:
John strolls off to Conference Hall A after looking at the notification.
// i'm just curious, what is everyone wearing? overalls, jumpsuit??
Agent Legit 22:
"Sounds good to me", Jack nods.
SWAT One:
Bobby searches for another hour. Seems like no one has been through these crates, at least that he can see. By now, he has scanned around 94% of the floor. There is also an upper level catwalk that lines the walls about 30 meters up. It can only be accessed by a few ladders, with accompanying signs written in both English and AUVL, that say, "No Automatons." The catwalk also connects to a control room for the giant crane that lines the ceiling, and has a door at the back of it.
"We have no idea. To be honest with you, we only woke about an hour ago, maybe less. Well then, let's go." Bill walks with the others toward the tram line, taking out his data pad and tapping a few controls and buttons before Geo's watch display lights up. "Tram control is yours."
Bill's watch lights up just before they're about to round the corner.
"Hey wait." He says in a hushed tone. He makes a 'stop' motion with his hands and points around the corner.
John arrives at the tram, but it simply says "Manual Override". It won't respond to him.
(Every civilian wears a jumpsuit kinda thing. Shoulder patches indicate department, kinda like Star Trek uniforms. Military wears specialized jumpsuits.)
