This imagery just hit my thinking.
Aubrey, try to get a bore working your side--as our systems back on ship are linked into the communication (visual/audio), I think all Kes needs is a bore on YOUR side of any size near any space the ship is...because it was a carrier--it can sense oncoming projectiles and stuff; treating you/your people/ejected into space folks who won't die instantly because that's a scientific fact as projectiles could really work with the computer.
Just unsure about the radiation part Draig mentioned.
Another problem is 'making it marketing' or something ._. The only way I can find to subvert this eccentrism is to catalogue it as 'military transport testing' with some advertising.
I just hope my last action isn't too crazy with Draignean. I mean it is marketing right?
...
I just wish the Reunion's systems could search for any viable bore-generating device on station and communicate or use it >_> and as far as I know, I can't hail any nearby civilian vessel under standard emergency protocol! Because there don't seem to BE ANY other than the not-cloaked ship nearby that blew up local security.
I'm not sure the Reunion being a carrier specifically is going to help with our current problem, but yes, if we can get the station to bore us very close to the Reunion, it could probably open a second bore to transport us inside the hangar.
The question is whether you/Aubrey have enough time to do that. None of our current problems are likely to wait very long.
If you need a way to trick the computer into doing something advertising-related, I assume at least looking at the bore drive would be handy for context-sensitive advertisements ("Heading into the Death Nebula? Give your loved ones something to remember you by with our affordable spa treatments!"). Actually taking control of it would be
rather aggressive from a marketing standpoint, but you just need a shell of an excuse to prod it along, right?
Oooh, and are we timeskipped in the future :3
I'd love to try negotiating TO GET A SHUTTLE from one of these crewdudes and shooting it in there.
Probably sending in a false flag that 'we signed up with Wilcox!' and 'this cloaked ship is hindering our comms!' and basically blaming everyone else for information as a reaction.
Sadly, I doubt the regular mercies are that gullible, if any are even still alive. The elite, possibly Apex troopers are almost certainly not going to buy it.
Obviously the same problem is getting the away team and other personnel into something space-worthy (even a container jettisoned by an outcoming explosion works!) and something to computer it there.
Hm, hadn't thought of stuffing everyone into an airtight container for the trip. I don't think we'll have anything airtight in a hotel, but it's worth keeping in mind.
Retrieval would still be a major problem, though. Keeping everyone alive for a few minutes gives the Reunion crew a few more minutes to come rescue us, but it doesn't solve our immediate problem.
Er
I guess I need to post an action
Say, tomorrow
Um, I need to think about what it is.

Damn, it's been a month since I updated my game. Again.
Given that Khate is largely responsible for everyone being seconds away from being sucked into space, it might also make sense to wait for Khate to figure out what happens now.
I mean, I could try to just
stop Varky, but that's a tall order and it doesn't solve our other problems. I feel like space riding is our best bet if we can pull it off.
Also: As has always been and shall always be.
