Sure, you notice the Star Flare's scanners picking up a scan of the area from outside the system

"Negative. Accidental infection only occurable through one of them getting inside you. Marbo is working on a chemical that will flush out t he worms. Possibility of using capsacin from terran peppers to cause the body to go into overdrive, burn the creatures and cause them to flee the torsos.

Okay, the way I'm reading this, Marbo is responding to Darcy's question, on the bridge. Is that right?

Edit to add: This is a great argument for quoting posts you're responding to, isn't it?

Oops. My post is gone now. Theatrically? That's an awesome cut. "We're fine!" "Negative."

Yes, it was intended to reply to darcy, then i forgot to hit post, and sat at my work computer writing scripts for a bit, then realized i didnt hit post, so when i did there was new posts between it.

Cass decides she should probably go back to the bridge and stands up. "I agree with Darcy about checking the engines and weapons systems. If the pirates are out looking for the lost ship, chances are we're going to need both before too long. Let me know how we're doing."

Cass leaves the ready room and steps onto the bridge.
OOC:
Seems like this is a good time to not have us all in five different locations, in terms of clarity.

Want Moira to follow or go to the bridge?
Mar 13, 2019 12:30 am
OOC:
No she should go to Engineering, since she was ordered to. She can comm us with any findings.
Mar 13, 2019 12:36 am
OOC:
I thought as much. Moira will keep her comm open. Spinach, I'm going to roll Prepared and Expert to prep the ship for the next task, if that's cool.

Edit: How dead are we?

Kendall hits her communicator to reach out to Cass: "Commander, I noticed something on the long range scanners. Someone is scanning our area. We must tread carefully. Perhaps I can pretend that I am Captain Anell. Let me know how you would like me to proceed, Commander."

As Cass gets on the bridge, she is surprised to see Marbo there. Before she can react, however, Kendall's message comes through her comm badge. "Cassano here. Has the ship been hailed since you've been on board?"

"Also, have you found any information we could use to locate our missing crewmembers?"

"I found some information, but it is encoded in some strange language. It’s going to take some personal time to decipher. I did discover travel logs that may be of interest to you, though."

Kendall will share the following findings:
Quote:
However, there is some information that you can still discover despite this:
The ship's log has some previous locations that this ship has visited saved in it. Two of them seem particularly relevant to you: One is a nearby star system that was the place that this ship has come from right before arriving here. The other is farther away in the Zoura system, far away from any important trade route. This location catches your eye because the ship has travelled there many times, much more often than it has to any other place.
"To address the issue of the scanning ship, they haven’t hailed us yet. Should I prepare my best impression of that dead pirate bitch?"

"Unless you know how to speak Alien Click, I don't think you'll be able to do a credible impersonation. I suggest you transport back with the data as soon as possible."

Remember, the pirates communicate through weird clicking noises. It would be very difficult or even impossible to impersonate them due to this.

Moira, you get to Engineering and everything seems to be working fine. You run some diagnoses but no problems come up. The ship is ready

I've edited my previous post with extreme prejudice and embarrassment.

Terrible, you are.
Cass reaches out to Hortam. "We may be having company soon. Where are we on extracting information from the pirates?"
Mar 13, 2019 5:18 am
Hortam replies: "Commander, one of them wishes to speak to you personally. I told him that's out of the question but he says he's only going to talk to our leader. Nobody else."
