You idly tend to the bar - your patrons can always speak up.

1236USY.1d/1m.1900h

"An'der Wóda." Agustina mumbles, pushing the shot glass towards you. You glance at Chester, who glances at you and then Agustina, and returns to sipping of his sucrosol.

You pour the noble girl another shot of Wóda, and in the end you get to scan her credchip again. (+5c)

Today Earnings: 1097c
Monthly Earnings: 1097c


She looks into the glass and takes a sip afterwards.

1236USY.1d/1m.1908h

Chester suddenly drinks all of his remaining sucrosol in one go, putting his glass the very moment a soft 'thwup' comes from Agustina.

You see her face placed against the counter, and then you hear the quiet breathing.

"I must excuse myself. For a brief period of time. During which I will carry Miss Akrylla. To a sleep pod onboard Minuet." The android easily lifts the uncounscious noblewoman off the counter and over his shoulder. Slowly he carries her through the main gate and into the airlock.

1236USY.1d/1m.1915h

Chester returns the moment your biochip triggers a warning inside your brain:

[SLEEP PERIOD HAS BEGUN. SEEK A PREFERABLY COMFORTABLE PLACE TO SLUMBER UNTIL 0115 TOMORROW. NEGLIGENCE TO THIS MIGHT CAUSE YOUR ORGANIC COMPONENTS TO BECOME INEFFICIENT.]

"Miss Akrylla has begun slumber for next six hours. This should be sufficient for her body. To recover from drunkness. Hopefully her hangover. Will not be too difficult on her."

A) Explain to Chester that you must get some sleep.
B) "More synthol?"
C) Ask Chester some questions.

C - I doubt Chester will stay long, but I think we can afford to delay by perhaps half an hour. We can just set our wake alarm a little later

"I must get some sleep as well, my usual sleeping period has begun."

"You're closing the bar. For the night. That is what you're saying."

"Correct."

"Understandable. Have a pleasant slumber." Chester leaves for the airlock and you do a little sweeping of the counter.

1236USY.1d/1m.1925h

Having cleaned the bar, locked the main room and set up the alarm, you go to your sleep pod as well.

You set it for six hours, enter, and give in to the stimulated sleep.



Congratulations! Bartender Arnold earned 1097 Credits today! His monthly total so far is 1097 Credits!

A new day at Galactic Refueling Otupost 254831 begins...



1236USY.2d/1m.0125h

You wake up, your sleep not interrupted by any alarms.

You take a moment to plug yourself to the food replicator, letting the nutrient sludge be absorbed by your digestive tract.

1236USY.2d/1m.0130h

Walking behind the bar, you can see that both the command console and the security console are slowly blinking with their ping lights.

That's curious - either they weren't things important enough to interrupt your sleep, or something else happened.

A) Lets check security console first, it actually might be something important.
B) Command console blinking is most probably something breaking down and needing a fix - then again, that would trigger an alarm, no?
C) The alerts can wait. I need to prep the room for another day of work first.

You check the security console to see what's it pinging about...

Ship traffic logs, that's what.

Quote from: Ship Traffic Log
1236USY.1d/1m.2033h:
Unknown vessel enters Beta Carotenii system through Poseidonis Jump Gate. Heading: Gamma Urquanni Jump Gate.
Security Tag 74A83 attached to Unknown Vessel.

1236USY.1d/1m.2200h:
Unknown vessel (sectag 74A83) leaves Beta Carotenii system through Gamma Urquanii Jump Gate.

1236USY.2d/1m.0003h:
"Marco Polo", an Aviso-class Personal Delivery Craft, has left the vicinity of the station, heading in direction of Eta Coridani Jump Gate.

1236USY.2d/1m.0117h:
"Minuet", a Freedom-class Cargo Barge, has left vicinity of the station, heading in direction of Madagascar Jump Gate.

This means, you're all alone on the station, once again.

Such is a deep space bartender's life.

A) Let's start up the day - prep the bar, turn on the lights, get music going...
B) One more console left to check!

You check the command console next.
