WEEK 9
| the pygmalion. . . ONLINE  CAPTAIN'S LOG: WEEK (9) |
monday - thursday (21) survivors  Sunday's trial was only mere hours ago, but you find yourself faced with a new week on The Pygmalion. When you awaken, you will find the ship restored to its previous state, all areas interfered with during the murder looking mostly the same as they did before. Along with this, it appears there are new areas opened on the ship. It seems you have more exploring to do. The robot in the cafeteria has prepared another breakfast of various foods. (OOC: Please submit your murder proposals by 9 PM EST Tuesday.) taken list profiles private conversations setting rulebook murder proposals ENTER COMMAND_ |

So…that changes a lot. [He's still scanning, flipping his page over.] Mind if I copy this? [Too late, doing it already.] Guess that answers the question about if this really is the future.
We've also now got some kind of genesis that happened when our dear captain was seven years old. Reading all of this is sounds like something happened to all of the worlds to make it unfit for human life. Or at least Earth which a lot of us are from anyway. [Scribbling, scribbling.] The other thing this tells us is that the Cradle Project was dangerous from the start. If she had to undergo psychological evaluations…I mean, come on. Does that sound normal to you?
If the terraformation was meant to make a new planet and the Cradle Project was the alternative, why are we here? The crew from the Pygmalion obviously got destroyed so…how do we fit in? None of us signed up for a mission.
[Finally, he looks up at Jack again.] Just how long were you holding out on sharing this information?

[ Jack doesn't actually mind that he's not waiting for an answer, that said. He'd do exactly the same thing, so he really can't judge here. ]
But nope. Doesn't sound good at all to me. Got a few guesses, a few theories, but they're also pretty much just that. Because, I mean, I've got some experience here. Hyperion, the company I own? Based in a huuuuge space station. So. Got some good insight on how this kind of stuff operates, I'd say. You got a planet in that dire of a state? You're looking at straight up extinction. So, yeah. Where do we play in here?
[ He taps at the datapad, but it's just idle to make his point. ]
So, a word stands out to me, knowing that. Epidemiological. See, ethical, psychological, those I get. Makes sense. But epidemiology? That-- That is not what I expect here. But sure brings up a certain line of questioning. At least, so far as I'm concerned.
[ He sits back again, then shrugs. ]
As for your question? Found it last Wednesday. After our little zero-g problem, was feeling a little, uh. Anxious. Because dunno if you've ever experienced it, but I sure have. What happened there? We were probably about, I dunno, twenty seconds from dying? Max? I've been in space without an Oz Kit before. You never forget that feeling. So. Understandably, feeling a little more pressed to find answers when in danger of the ship venting at any goddamn moment.

Depends. I wanna know just how long we've been here. There's no way it's been 900 years. We answer that, we probably get on the right track to how we work into this.
[He leans back to reread the notes.] Epidemiology is…what, exactly? Sorry, not ringing any bells. [But there's a lopsided grin.] Think that freaked everybody out a little. [But all he does is shrug because while he hasn't exactly experienced being in zero gravity he sure has experienced dying and death.] I'm not really buying Alice's excuse either about it just being a power drain. So…what else could cause it?
