[Caellath]

((Sorry. Time constraints. These last weeks have been particularly problematic, with anything that needs a minimum of thought elliciting groans from me after study sessions.))

"Hey, Gorat. What did you see there?" Milno asks as he notices his teammate leaving the memory, before completing with a question: "And have we decided on the next one we're infiltrating, by the way?"

[Knight Otu]

((Assuming the meeting with Milno happens.))

"Inconclusive, I'm afraid. The ship was feeling kinship with something down on a planet with Altered, and saddened after scorching the world, but whether these emotions were for the Altered or any humans left on that world, I can't say. Even though I tried watching twice. Either way, we should keep this memory in mind, it could be the one we're looking for.

But first, we need to plan our next step. Our top priority should be trying to go back to stealth again. The brute force approach we just used is likely to just kill us and our bodies if the ship decides we're an external threat. I suppose the best thing we could do is fake our deaths..."

[SeriousConcentrate]

"You don't have to worry about that. I have the strongest presence out of all of us. You four go ahead and continue exploring memories. I'll keep it focused on me." (Highest Charisma and Willpower, anyway. >.>)

[Knight Otu]

"I'd rather not rely on that. We've been flat-out told that if we were to get the ship's full attention, we will all die. We here in its memory scape, our bodies on the Haidal, everyone else on the Haidal... and you're suggesting getting its attention on yourself." Gorat would frown if he had a face.

[Caellath]

"Gorat is correct. That's the main reason I don't want a horde of clones walking around to distract the blobs." Milno says. "I used that trick only because the blobs were swarming the memory, but finding another way of moving around without being attacked by them is preferable."

[piecewise]

Ok, for the sake of everyone; you are now all hanging around together in an inconspquous form, currently not under attack by anything.

After all, you've still got many more memories to look at.

[Caellath]

"Let's pick and approach our next target already and see if it's swarmed in blobs. We can think on a strategy then." Milno suggests.

[Nikitian]

I'd rather check either the hiding face, the syringe or the nerve. Damn, I might pick something useful there. Maurice chuckled at the idea.

[Knight Otu]

"I'd be in favor of looking at the hiding face first, again."

[SeriousConcentrate]

"Whatever you guys want to do."

[Caellath]

"...Let's check the hiding face then."

Search for the hiding face with the group.

[SeriousConcentrate]

^ Same.

[Knight Otu]

Likewise.

"And let's try not to attract attention."

[Pancaek]

 "they're moving" "I noticed, try not to attract attention to yourself"

Idem ditto

[piecewise]

Team dust and memories wanders (Or whatever the correct verb to describe the movement of detached consciousnesses is) around until they find the hiding face. It's alone, sort of crawling across the surface of a miniature planet.  It drops off and starts slowly swimming through mid air like a starfish; it's eyes jerking wildly around and it's mouth working noiselessly.
