The sudden arrival of Kayla Hong, along with her notarized ship-share and claim to a crew position, has caused quite a stir. But the cold-berth passengers are gathering in the departures lounge, and the three Middle-Passengers will be coming along shortly, too. Too much to do to give this new complication the attention it deserves!
Rin and Said Ma prepare the cold-berths, and then escort the chanting religious piligrims in for medical prep, and then encapsulation. This is an exacting task, but not particularly complicated. And the 10 low passengers have gone through the process before and cause no trouble. The three middle-passengers arrive soon after the 'freezers' are activated, and it takes some time to get them settled in and oriented; safety briefings and meal schedules and all the rest.
Engineering is time consuming but easy enough. Jump Navigation is likewise time-consuming, exacting, but its all math and the computer could probably do it on its own, though the refinements and tweaks needed for the most efficient possible jump might lack.
Last minute bureaucratic details; Ships Log signed off and customs & immigration forms filed. Jump Plan updated. All is 'Go'!
Finally, departure time arrives and Tharrok eases the "Miss Fortune" out from its docking-ring. 'Control' assigns a departure route and warns of incoming and departing traffic. Then its 5 hours of 1G thrust (acceleratio/deceleration) to the jump-point.

OOC:
We need dice rolls from pilot, chief engineer, and navigator. Assistants can add +1 to the rolls but that assistance must be stated. One character can only assist with one task.
