Try to find the protective we need to reinforce those diving suits.
Just to clarify, did I get just insulation, or did I get the insulation we need to reinforce the suits?

Description
wearing a nice suit and glasses, and keeping well groomed gives Jakie a rather slick appearance. She has a very no-nonsense personality, and speaks with a slight tunnel accent. She comes of as very cold, with calculating and emotionless eyes that remind one of a reptile.
Backstory
Jakie Rede was born in a little tunnel town right outside the city. Jakie didn't like the lack of opportunity, so she made her own, in the booze business. Being as how these "operations" weren't entirely legal, Jakie learned how to protect her interests when the need arose, and the need arose often. But, getting too greedy, Jakie lost control of her turf, was muscled out and forced to skip town. Now, down on her luck, she wants to explore, see the world, and maybe find a nice place to set up a new "operation"
You got what you needed for the suits.

and that protective. Or rather you found some metal that would work for that protective. You'll need to form it into plates in the workroom.
If you were radioactive ENOUGH it could, but that would be very bad for everyone around you
"But I don't want people around me."
Empty the box of toxic radioactive powder. More specifically, empty it into myself. Free disinfection and radioactivity!
Then clean out any not needed for embalming and toss it to Joshua, who probably needs the tags to make a box of air rather than water for respiration or some dumb meatbag things like that.
Also, any free knowledge for being spirithandled around the Deep?
"I tried the poison again."
Verne then begins to muse contentedly on the possibilities of transhumanism.

In quest of:
Sniper rifle is probably 3 xstructural 4-containing 2, Transmitting 3 (got)
Explosives shells; Structural 3 (got), explosive 3, projectile 3 (got).
...ok.
You take this big box full of deady powder and up end it onto your head. It lands in a clump and poofs out literally all over the damn place like spilled flour, forming a radioactive, poisonous cloud of dust.
This is the point that I remind you that you're in a sealed hanger inside a sealed ship with circulating air. Air circulating through air vents. Like the ones the poison dust is currently starting to get sucked up into. And this is not the sort of thing you can stop with your bare hands.
Yeah, I'll give you 20.

Well, let's test how much it can take then. Keep doing the make some "distance -> shoot -> make some distance -> shoot" dance until it is swiss cheese, so to say

I'll spare you the rolls, but after a fair bit of backing up and shooting, including a close call of the creature almost getting a hold of you, you manage to riddle it with so many holes that it collapses.
Go pick up the worm and carry it around the bore to see if it reacts to anything. The engine, say.

After some time wandering it becomes obvious that the worm is seeing some of the deep sea. It reacts to things like the engine and the main core.
Nah, I'm good with just waiting stealthily. As Radio pointed out, Sifeebt's got a fair bit less transcend than the local monsters, and he doesn't have any Deep Sea weapon.

You might want to free your time up to deal with the dirty bomb in the hanger. Asap.
"I guess it's true what they say, no good deed goes unpunished... Eep!
HEY YOU, you better help me with your mess!"
Darnit, throw another deep sea ball to try and distract it/lure it away.
If it worked this time, you know the drill: abscond with ghostlad and hide (in the bore or otherwise).
If still not successful, à l'attaque!

With the second ball you manage to distract the creature and get over to sy. You grab is mind and absorb it into yourself.
