SHE'S GOING TO GET THERE IF YOU DON'T STOP HER. TIME'S RUNNING OUT IF YOU WANT TO LIVE THROUGH THIS. BETTER HURRY. :)

[ if this is about what she thinks it is, arya politely requests a "shoot on sight" policy be instituted re: intruders in engineering. ]

The jump drive?

[rixatus]

you should hurry, arya.

[not going to reply. not going to reply. ... nope, he's not fooling anyone]

running out
you mean it hasn't already?

[rixatus]

you're still here, aren't you?

[iceboxed]

for now

she knows us but we don't know her
and she knows the original crew
is she like you?

[nightblogs]

WHY DON'T YOU HURRY fatass

[rixatus]

i won't do the work for you. :)

[nightblogs]

yea thats real inspirational bro
what else do u want me to do
bring u some lemonade

[briefly]

Well, obviously you have some idea of what will happen to us, but - what will happen to you?

[rixatus]

i wouldn't worry about that, poppy.

[briefly]

You... wouldn't worry about yourself.

[ He's not inclined to reply, not after last time. But he has questions now, and red text can't reach through the screen to get it, rendering discussion the one harmless thing on this ship. ]

Save your efforts of trying to convince me to help. You took your time intervening on my behalf, and I'm inclined to do the same for you, take my time, always time, but first you have to convince me it's time worth taking. Tick, tock.

For nothing will befall man more dread than dire necessity.

I have better questions now. We are who we always were, are and will be - yes, no, yes - but who are we? And what? You know what I am. Tell me.

[rixatus]

you're asking the wrong questions. :)

[cargojet]

[ Always the same elusive answers. Sometimes one try, sometimes more patience. Asking costs nothing, unlike some other things. ]

What happened to your face?

[lordof]

would you know, then, what will happen if she should accomplish what she means to do?

[more for the sake of knowing than actually seeking incentive.]

[rixatus]

i already told you. keep up, i hate to have to repeat myself.

it's b o r i n g. :)

[lordof]

i do not mean what would happen to us. that much has been made apparent.

what would happen to the vessel?

[skjalf]

[ what in the name of god?! ]

Charlotte, yes? Who is she?

[ addendum: ] And who are you, pray?

[rixatus]

a mistake.

i'm what i always am. :)

[skjalf]

[ that is not a nice thing to say. ]

Can you explain why you would say such a thing?

[ this is. so awkward. kind of scary, too. no, scrap that.

terrifying. ]

A ghost?

[catatonics]

so i was right? if she destroys the jump drive, we'll die?

[rixatus]

i already gave you the answers and cleared the way. i'd get moving, dana.

[catatonics]

i'm getting really tired of being told what to do by people i don't know. you're just lucky this is something i'd want to do anyway.

thank you.

If she destroys the jump drive, will it die as well? Will you?

[rixatus]

N O.

you aren't asking the right questions.

[faderbroderson]

Engineering has been inaccessible for two jumps. Now, suddenly this girl surfaces and gains access to destroy the drive, only to have you drive us all there in a mad rush to stop her.

Who's mistake is she?

[Yes, he's reading all the open conversations.]

[She presses her lips, trying to not overspill on her millions of questions.]

How much time do we have?

[rixatus]

i said hurry, didn't i? :)

[the_other_eight]

Who is she?

[She's already on her way to get lost in engineering.]

[tumbleweeds]

She knows some of us. Ward and Resnik didn't.

You said not to believe everything they tell us, but which ones?

[needsheadphones]

Whoa, hey, hold on -- is what's going on in engineering with the whole... looking freaky thing the same sort of thing that we saw on the bridge?

[ A+ words ]

And for that matter -- are you the one who locked the door?

[forgodssake]

they might succeed.
what's in it for you?

[sorrycharles]

some nurse.

[avengeful]

Should you really be adding a smiley face to something that serious?

[He's mostly just being a sassy little shit, ignore him.]

Get to where? The main engines?

[specialism]

How do you know?

So.

You're "Smiley", hm?

[vivelavenir]

[Ah. So this is 'Smiley', then.]

...Perhaps if you would guide us to do so, it may mean that it is the improper course of action, to prevent her.

After all; that would ensure your safety too, would it not?

[klutziness]

who's going where, smiles mcgee?

[wheeloffire]

Who are you?

[yardbird]

And you're telling us this out of the goodness of your heart, huh?
