Calmly walk around putting my finger in each dead person in the room and adding a bloodstrain to a current one on my shoulder blade.

((Hmmm... Need Froggy's magnetic treads to repair that stuff...))

Check on hydroponics system. Make sure the insects haven't come back.

[6] You bash the last survivor as hard as you can, fracturing his cranium and halting all motion. In addition, you hear a click, but you're not sure where it's from.

[6] You add four more tallies to your shoulder pad--this adds up to five, which makes you remember that the first one disappeared. Ruined! You find a frag grenade in the pirate's lap to commit seppuku with--oh wait, the pin's actually missing!

What's worse is that you hear a loud noise reverberating throughout the hull, followed by the sound of buckling steel. You're familiar with the noise from old, painful memories. It's not pleasant to see a skytower going down...

[4] A few insects are still present, but you can already see dead bodies laying on the edges of the floor--most likely due to starvation. Without a food source, the rest of the ecosystem should collapse before the plants regrow. You keep the hydroponics bay sealed until that happens, though.

[5] (oh no)

Stuck between a door and... a door, you decide that you need to cause bigger damage in order to significantly affect the compartmentalized vessel. Forcing the dislodged door off of yourself and turning your back to the vacuous hall, you brace yourself firmly against the door and press your speaker array to the wall, shutting off your audio receptors as you begin dismantling the hull through sheer force. Pits and pieces of dislodged wall panels, floor grates, and support columns begin floating by.

If Anton could still shit himself, he certainly would.

[1] You reflexively dive away from the grenade, then turn around to dive back on top of it. It explodes before you can do this.

[3] You are a few meters away from the grenade when it explodes and are blown back. You feel your visor crack, but curiously your vision isn't affected.


Avis-Mergulus AKA Anton "Tosha" Teremnoi
Spoiler: Skills (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Cloud Status (click to show/hide)

[1] You fail to react in time, and the grenade explodes. Your suit's legs are torn off at the hips and fly off into the wall, sticking upright. You are sent barreling through the the central volume of the room, spinning uncontrollably.


Samarkand AKA Felicia Hasting
Spoiler: Skills (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Cloud Status (click to show/hide)

[3] You uncover some plans for a security drone that doesn't seem to be in the ship's catalog, despite being present in the database. Making some modifications, you come up with a variant that can be used to move pieces of steel and weld them, complete with magnets to attach itself firmly to the hull.

Unfortunately, the radiators are made of special materials. A preliminary study of the ship's schematics indicates that they are built out of carbon fullerenes, favored for their thermal properties. Since a fairly wide patch of them was blown out by the pirate battleship's laser attack, it will take a lot of materials to repair them to full condition.
You look at the enemy vessel and notice that its radiators are currently not extended. It's unlikely that a ship wouldn't have radiators, so there must be a control somewhere on the bridge that activates them.

New design: Repair Drone!
New Construction Option: Repair Radiators (Progress: 0/4) (Requires 40 Fullerenes) (Can be partially funded)

[2] You try to cut holes in the ship, but find it difficult to differentiate which parts are still attached to the ship's structure and which ones are free-floating. You cut apart some scrap and deal no damage to the ship.

"Computer, can you build me a repair drone. And you goons over in their ship. Before you blow it up, could you please check the state of the radiators? It'll be expensive to repair ours, much better to salvage theirs."

Visor is operational? I still can walk? Who has the toughest engineer body over here? I do!
- Alright, looting party time.

Activate magnetic soles, just in case. Collect the guns and all the other weaponry from the dead, then head to the main ship.

Anton sighs, waiting for the wall to meet what's left of his body.

-Teromo, I hear something about needing to extend this ship's radiators so we can salvage them easier. Also, could you drag me or something? This body is pretty wrecked, but I'm sure it's cheaper to repair it than build a new one.

He pauses.

-There ought to be a captain's log somewhere on this ship, too. That would be interesting to see.
