[ TEXT ] in which cambridge makes a polite enquiry about her location

[ Hello, fellow crewmembers. If your device wasn’t on before IT CERTAINLY IS NOW! Cambridge - still nursing the mental wound of her power being so rudely culled and currently feeling obnoxiously disorientated - technopathically shoves a text transmission your way: ]

if somebody doesn't tell me exactly where the fuck I am then I am airlocking the whole bloody ship so help me god.

[ An idle threat, don’t you worry. If she had been at full strength then she might have attempted to slip her way through the ship’s systems but as it is she can barely switch a light off, let alone override the hundreds of security precautions that would undoubtedly stand between her and an airlock. Still, the impulse behind the threat is very real: uncertainty and fear mingled with a desperation to check that she wasn’t going mad and dreaming this all... ]

terribly tranquil indeed if all the crew are dead. the ultimate in tranquillity, you could say.

other than the prisoners this ship is quiet as the grave.

a mission in itself. I have a rather strong suspicion that this ship is larger than it appears.

[ all these endless reams and reams of wires and circuitry are certainly powering something larger that a yacht. If only Cambridge could really get a grip on the ship's systems; it's so infuriatingly unreachable... ]

[judging by the amenities and the spaciousness of the two levels immediately accessible to them. having over 500 pods had to mean something; though Jim hasn't figured it out yet.]
