Find Bubblegum.
[9] When you find Bubblegum, she's holding a Rivet-gun, using a drill attachment to drill a hole in order to bolt a thick sheet of metal to the wall. She glances back at you, for a moment, biting her lip, her eyes hidden under her goggles. She rivets the metal to the wall with a huge rivet, handing the gun over to someone else.
[4] She approaches, eyes still hidden as she gestures for you to follow her somewhere quiet and you do, slipping into a back alley. She brushes some sand off of her new grey army shirt.
[6 vs 5] She suddenly pushes you against the sandy adobe wall, muscles adding a little more force than necessary.
[2] [4 vs 4] She then presses forward, pulling you into a deep kiss, pressing her thin body against yours. Despite any reluctance on your part, you kiss her back.
[2] You feel a flaring pain in the back of your skull.
Commence turret-destruction, followed by a rush attempt at the open ports along with Avens.
If possible, only fire at any incoming projectiles and evade the rest.
Attempt destruction of turrets.
Kaylee[12 vs 10] The mech clicks, before slipping into speeds faster than light, your short-range scatter-shot flaring forth in the darkness of space, blowing a number of turrets to rubble as you skim the surface of the Hiveship, your mech's camouflager turning a deep, metal grey. [1 Kaylee's Turret's health]
[10 vs 12] You begin to fire on turrets with your missiles, the fiery missiles blowing through space, many missing, but many scoring shots on the turrets, not enough to harm them. You, however, don't notice a counterattack in time, your body slamming in your mech as the shield is impacted. [3 Aven's health]
[12 vs 4] Kaylee continues to circle the ship, blowing holes in the turrets, evading and shooting down a number of missiles, dodging blasts and dealing explosions. [0 Kaylee's turret's health]
[7 vs 3] Aven's proceeds to unload a number of rockets into the turrets, dodging blast by shifting aside every time a rocket gets too close. The ammo-barrel of your launcher rolls with each blast.
[9 vs 9] Avens continues to blast holes into the turrets, but the rockets fail to do any conclusive damage.
[13 vs 6] Finally, the last of her marked turrets explode into balls of firey death, leaving the Hiveship defenseless from boarding parties and enemy fleets.
[2+4+4] Kaylee and Avens begin to pull and tear at the numerous ports, but for some reason cannot pull them open, the scraggly steel putting up a fierce resistance, before finally tearing away.
Air begins to drain from the upper decks of the Hiveship. The ports are open.Magnus votes for Hayes, and tries to convince the members of the Asgardian Confederacy to vote with him
[8+2] Many members flinch, looking away from your steely gaze. Their hands crossing in their laps, fingers resting on the buttons.
[9] Not a single one seems defiant of you, in fact many of them seem outright terrified of you after rumors were leaked about what you did to the last member of the Confederacy who voted against you.
Making evolution your bitch.
[50-32-20=12] Twelve of the humans are seperated from the rest, herded into a containment cell, before they're executed without remorse and without mercy by your drones.
[Total Left: 38]
[10 Morale]
[9.5 rounded down: 9] Nine of group Blank are divided into group Beta after rigorous physical testing. The twenty-nine others are placed into group Alpha. Morale is good, people seeming to hope, to think, that this will end soon and they'll be let go.
[Alpha: 29]
[Beta: 9]
[10] Many of the tourists are apparently from a planet heavy on mining, their eyes dilating quickly and widely when light is removed and added. Many seem confused by the test, but stay silent.
[7] Seven Of group Alpha are determined to be the best regarding eye dilation and the amount of light reflected and used.
[2] Two of group Beta pass all tests, and are confined in the same cell to share space, due to lack of room within the cells. It seems both are miners on a mineral rich world with heavy gravity and frequent lunar eclipses.
[Alpha: 22]
[Beta: 9]
[Delta: 7]
[Gamma: 2]

22[acronym]+12+19] = 5713.4 pounds of food. Protein paste stores are back up and well. ((Good thing food is abstracted.))
The voting begins, the Planetary Governors signing the name of the ones they wish to rule over them and the Federation on the screens in front of them.
[
118:87+22+9] Maxwell Hayes' bar skyrockets in the first few minutes, many of the inner ring planets grinning, a few of the more backwater planets, grunt before slouching back and doing something of little to no interest, usually sleeping, smoking or cleaning their fingers with large pocket-knives.
[
50:42+7+1] Versen falls behind and stays behind in the election, taking home fifty votes, certainly not enough to beat Maxwell Hayes. More outer ring planets seem annoyed, or outright angry, a few lighting up a smoke or cigar and grumbling to their neighbors as the polls are tallied, re-tallied and re-read.
[~] A man stands up from the crowd, flicking an old-timey lighter, to light his cigarette. He snatches up his placard -- which reads The Garocony Empire -- and throws it at the holo-screen, so that it bounces off the statue behind it.
"Ain't servin' no nancy-boy like Hayes. Ain't servin' tha' Fed, if he'ss at their head."
Then the man leaves, clove scented smoke trailing behind him as he walks, hands in his pockets, boots tapping on the floor.
