Sorry for not posting an action in time... Can we assume Aubrey followed Boris along?
edit:
DH – what do you want to do? We need to have an escape, ideally. We need to stop the piggybacking ship from attacking the Reunion, ideally. A bonus would be preventing the destruction of the freighter, as they are evidently concerned about it providing some kind of evidence.
I suggest a tactical path--part of why I shotgun-actioned was my worry and unfamiliarity with Draignean and his timing of turns/actions/plot/time, but a bit more familiarity and I can say that you're all clear here.
And interrogating those dudes can help too--you can ask me to splice if possible, because I can still reach you via signal. I could even try an action to boost whatever your electronics does, I think!
Or, you can try taking solid evidence of this whole thing and maybe getting out using the way those folks got into there and...something something 'killed a heavy creature' and 'evidence clearance'. Whatever is up, I do believe there's something automated about the PD system given that its a freighter.
"Clearly we must leave this ship, or disarm it. If we disarmed it and flew it back to the Reunion we might discover some interesting evidence. Or get shot on the way back."
Guess it didn't occur to Aubrey that Kari won't blow the ship up unless it really has to involve a big painful weapon.
I'm expecting 'that ship has a bomb in it and it'll ram into our hulk of a ship', but of course that's going to take a TON OF TIME given how space is. I'm expecting a bore, but given our carrier subsystem, and me betting that Ka-T's ship, while having Alpha-level mercs, is pretty OP to have Alpha-level ship whatevers. I mean I can believe weapons in the Alpha scale, but goodness if it's a full all-rounder for such a tiny ship!
I wonder if those dudes are actually friendlies in a way, not the people Ka-T knows and such. Just bop them out of commission or lay them queries, la/DH!
We're ALL literally counting on you guys, because I really cannot jump without anyone else on board.
Because it just has to be this scenario.
The Reunion - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Ka-T/Frieghter ships - - Shuttle/Sled - - - - - - - - - - - - - Flounder
(probably on the edge of the system)

What's bugging me is if anyone will target the shuttle/sled. :X I
SO do not want that to happen.
