[ The video feed shows Toshiko at her Comms station, looking exactly like every other resident of the ship who has gone for days without a decent night's sleep or a shower. Yes, she is still on duty. ]

Nice to finally have the lights and heat back, isn't it? I'd like to ask everyone a favor. If you happen to stumble across a little piece of equipment like this- [ She holds up a small, crude bundle of circuitry and metal ] -don't panic. It's just left from an attempt we made at tracking the source of those sounds we all heard over the network. A failed attempt, unfortunately, but you can't fault us for trying. In fact, if you find one, we'd be grateful if you'd drop it back by Communications for us.

And by the way, I'm seeing chatter about some changes to our decor. Do I even want to ask?

[OOC: Action for Comms folk is open, network only for everyone else until after Isaac has a chance to make her go back to her room. ]

[ Hey you can hug, you just have to watch out for men in horn rimmed glasses. ]

I still think it's a great idea for a long term project. Might be a useful asset to security too, so if you make any connections over there, they might lend you manpower to get it moving. Give it some thought, see where you can take the idea; just keep me updated so I can run the progress by Kirk sometimes. He loves to keep a finger in all the pies.

I'm not sure who's working Security, but I'll look into it soon as I can. There definitely should be cooperation between the two departments, seeing as we're the ones with the eyes and ears.

[ She loves the idea of a project that isn't just something she's fiddling with to keep herself busy. ] I'll work out my thoughts on it and get back to you, once I've had some sleep. Could I maybe borrow Auggie, if he's willing, to help out? He's got sharp ears and I think that could be really handy.

Tyke's my security contact, but doesn't have to be yours. See if there's anyone who jumps out at you off the crew roster as someone who might be cooperative and have some hours free.

And sure you can borrow Auggie, but give it another day before you throw yourself too hard at it. This mask stuff has got everyone buzzing, and the network needs to be kept from meltdown from the extra traffic.

I think I might have spoken to her just a bit, but I will do. A project like this might not be everyone's cup of tea.

Don't worry, I've already been ordered to have a sandwich and some sleep. Which I will do, once we have everything buttoned up here. I did notice the amount of chatter, could be a day or two before it's back to normal levels again, depending.

It won't. But if the results are something security or medical can use to get their people where they're needed promptly, then it's worth investigating.

It's nothing that's worth staying up insane hours for, at least. Unless the masks start talking on the network, in which case I'll let you know, and we can have another 96 hour house party.

Agreed. I know there are people around here who aren't keen on anything that smells even a little like it's invading their privacy, but someone has to keep track of what's going on. It could end up meaning the difference between losing another passenger and having the ability to send out a security team to find them before that happens.

Nathan, I like you, but I'm not leaving you to deal with even a quiet day here all by yourself. You're as tired as the rest of us.

[ Exactly his thinking. ] And what better people on the ship to keep that privacy to ourselves than us. [ Oh the irony. ] We'll do fine.

Oh no, I'm getting a half hour here and there. I might even try for two now. What do you think?

The best people to trust your secrets to are the ones who are probably going to find them out anyway. [ Just accept the inevitable, Tranquility. ]

I think you should let me keep an eye on things here while you go sleep for a couple of hours in a real bed.

A Captain always puts the needs of his team first. I'll sleep when everyone else has had at least two hours. That's how it works.

[ He squeezes her shoulder. ]

Drink that coffee up and finish up here, alright?

[ Tosh raises her eyebrows at that, but she has to admit it's exactly the same kind of thing Jack would be doing. ]

Promise you'll call if anything comes up?

I promise I'll call.
