[[rats. I wish I would have copied some of what I wrote down. I asked a good amount of questions and gave some answers. Let me get to a computer to respond.]]

But good to see you!

It is great to see you as well, little one. My how you've grown in such a short time.

When Francis explained what happened with the child, I was a little off-put. I don't even know where the turret might have come from. I'm glad you're saying they seem to be fixing up the child.

Francis @ 14/5/2015 9:38

Rin, how opposed would you be to meeting up with Aippaq's group instead? The fact that Aldo may be coming back to us makes me less keen on it, but it's still something I'm open to.

Well, as far as my group, we have a member there who can track the nearest person or group to them. I assume he has been tracking me this whole time unless I somehow got farther than another group. As for where they are, I just know they are south of here.

There was a plan to try to meet up, but that meant that they would have to backtrack and it wasn't a forgone conclusion that my pathway would lead back here. As you can see, it sure did, but we didn't know and with the whole fusion cell thing, there was a huge risk in backtracking.

As for my group, a handful of them wanted to come for me [Dain, RAMSES, Tesimal, Takeshi, Garthon [from what I remember]] and people like Matthieu really pushed to go the other direction. I will still never understand that boy, but he has a sternness about him. He has his mind set. I put myself in this position and I did it to help everyone. So I didn't want to risk anyone's life to just come back and find me.

Also Francis, Watts has declared he is able to revive the dead and they are currently working on bringing Aldo back to life. Right in time for puberty yah! Aippaq how'd you get here, what happened to you and your party?

[[not sure what happened with the whole update, but I had posted quite a bit to Francis]]

The room directly south of here was trapped, in a way. It was full of electric sparks and there was a crawl space with a fragile ceiling to crawl through. On the other side was a button to press to turn the sparks off. If no one chose to crawl through and press the button, someone would be electrocuted at random. I just felt I was best suited for the job and opted to crawl through figuring I would likely be separated from everyone else. Once I crawled through, sure enough, the ceiling collapsed and I was left apart from the rest of my crew. I explored two other rooms since then and for fear of hitting a trap or something, I went this direction.

Francis explained a bit to me about how everything went down, but I'm still so unsure about this demon child he keeps going on about. What is it?

And you trust this Izza bot despite that?

Frederic @ 14/5/2015 9:53

Very admirable that you did that for the group yah. I'm impressed with your gainz. We shall continue to achieve such gainz with the group you have right now. I'm unaware of Rin and Francis's abilities however I can keep us safe from wandering monsters as they cannot follow us. O'hara is an excellent map maker, I hope you both can share information yah. We shall meet with our old group in a little bit. We seem to have a good process going! Has anyone died from your side yet Aippaq?

I'm very glad. These monsters or whatever they are have been a big fear of mine. I did not want to get taken down by one.

As for meeting up with the other group, I say let's do it [even if they keep walking in circles] and we will see where we are at and what to do next.

Just to inform you guys of where I came from, just west of here, there is a room with multiple exits. It has a computer that is labeled "emergency escape pod". I didn't activate the computer because I wasn't sure if it would launch the escape pod right away or not and if one goes, that's one less person that gets off this ship. It didn't give me the opportunity to get inside it, so maybe I have to turn the power on first, but I didn't want to take any chances.

I'm still baffled someone would admit to so much bad stuff. Maybe, deep down, she has a good moral compass and something else is driving her actions. It's odd.

As for my group and useful actions, we have a tracker who can track the closest group or persons to them, we have a treasure hunter, a mechanic who can fix these random shuttles that are shut down around here, and then some vanilla crew members who can take the ability of someone who is deceased and make it their own. Someone claimed to be a "survivor" but I still don't know what that means.

Rin @ 14/5/2015 10:07

It looks like we have some repeat roles. We have one of those corpse absorbers as well, and a player-tracker.

Good to know. We had about 4 in our group who claimed corpse absorbing, so I think it's going to be a popular one.

Rin @ 14/5/2015 10:08

(What are the rules on copy and pasting things that were said in our public thread? Is that allowed, or no, because you guys weren't here/conscious?)

[[it's allowed as far as I'm concerned, you just can't straight copy something said by Mission Command that others didn't see]]

Ah! Now I remember what I was going to say. I told Francis this, but this room was raided because of my group. There was some armour, a shotgun, two shotgun shells, a plasma pistol, and fusion cells in this room about 4 phases ago.

Interesting stuff. Thank you, small notekeeper.

All win conditions are optional, yes. When I crossed that crawlspace, I got a new one as well. If I can save 10 lives and survive to the end of this thing, then I will win. We also got another win condition as a group, but I have to look and see what that is again. Let me fetch it.

Rin @ 14/5/2015 10:21

I peeked in Anna's notebook and all she was doing was doodling pictures of cats, so I decided to take some notes just in case.

Is that part of your ability?
