Can you blame them? Everybody was waiting for answers, but the ones we got weren't very helpful.
[ but yeah, fair. ]
It's not exactly mine, but I could probably figure it out with a little work. Even then, they made it sound like we were too far from the main hub for a message to be relayed quickly.
Didn’t say anything about blaming them. [ go on, get mad. it’s their prerogative! ] This place sounds like it’d be prime for the corporate red tape you hear about. Get past that and we might learn something.
[ hmmm ]
Wonder where it is. Space is huge, it could be a galaxy over or multiple.
It sounds like for some people this is a break from the insanity of their daily lives. If you can believe it.
[ he can. ]
Probably. It’d be up towards the front of the ship— [ hang on, he’s pulling up the map. ] Which could be anywhere, this seems focused in one what we have available to us rather than where we are in the overall layout.
I can believe it. [ but okay. map. ] You think it'll fill out more the more access we gain? There has to be an overall blueprint of the ship available that we can dig up somehow.
It filled out when this much opened up, but only the parts we have access to. If this is the pattern, we should see the next part when we get access to more.
How much do you think we're actually going to get access to next time? They're partitioning it supposedly because they're trying to get everything online, but...
Depends on the size of the ship. It’d be good if it was everything, but if the system’s broken in multiple places they might have to fix them as they go.
I guess like fixing a broken socket at a time in your house?
Sure. [ that's not quite correct but he's letting it slide. ] I thought about offering them help to get the systems back online and running, but I don't know if I could and I kinda doubt they'd say yes anyway.
I might still ask anyway. Give it enough time to let them bring their guard down about us being "new employees" and see if they'll allow me to try out different parts of the job. Beats delivering a bunch of boxes or whatever.
[ somehow he doubts it, but he nods nevertheless. ]
Supposedly we're all on this ship, so...if we have to we can just go and hunt them down ourselves and see if we can catch them. Shouldn't be that hard with so few places to go right now.
We'll see how it works. If anything, it'll also prove if they have access to other parts of the ship we don't, and maybe give us ideas of how to get there, too.
Right...I have a feeling we're going to have to try a few different things to get results. Better to rule stuff out now than assume for it later, I guess. [ ugh. ]

I think you might've been onto something with a comm station, but I bet it's behind one of the floors we won't have access to yet.

Yeah. You’re bound to run into one of them if you look hard enough. Or just find a space and wait it out until you see one of them wander by.
