I believe we're waiting on Skip to choose between Ed, Gill, and Val as to who he wants to assist him in questioning Lilly.

The others will, by default, be on babysitting duty.

Sorry.  I've spent the last week moving.  Still got stuff to move,and have to clean the ild apartment.  Will get on a post today or tomorrow.

Good luck.  That's always a ton of work.

Yeah.  Now I'm back at work, too.  We have until the end of the month, but that is going to come up quickly.

Been incredibly busy lately. So who is doing what?

Andre is just waiting for feedback about whether or not we're going hunting for the cubes. He believes that there are other mystical magical supernatural creatures in these cubes and he believes that all of the people or things aboard the ship currently who have come out of the cubes fall into that category.

Gryf is the only one of those he's freely letting in and out of engineering. The kids just probably shouldn't be there and he has active distrust for Lilly.

I thought we agreed not to go back because it is bad and equals death.

Thought so too but Cap was saying it was an option so maybe we weren't clear IC.

Cap asked Andre to work on sensors and make sure ship is operating correctly. Nothing about going back. He even said "unless you have any better ideas" to everyone.

If you guys forget what was said, you can always scroll up and review the posts again when you're not sure.

100% up to you guys to decide. We're just waiting on whether you comply with the request or don't and suggest something else.

Ed, Gill, Skip, and Val need to split into two pairs as well and decide how to interview Lilly and the kids (together or separate and which pair is interviewing who).

Oh, I guess I interpreted it wrong as the only sensor work I recalled discussing was gearing toward cube hunting. My bad.

FYI, NPCs may not always have the information or motives you're seeking. NPCs act within the parameters of their knowledge and personality. If you're looking for something that's not there, you're just going to go in circles. Just keep that in mind when you question and negotiate with them. If they absolutely refuse to give you what you want, but aren't hostile, there's often a good explanation you just haven't thought of. (part of solving a mystery)

Yea like Lilly is a shape shifting alien creature with only passing knowledge of humanity.

In reply to Gill Rurry (msg # 348):

That is one possibility. She could also be:

• A supermutant who's mind is fractured due to the enhanced abilities.
• A clone with incomplete memory upload.
• A cyborg with incomplete memory upload.
• An AI inhabiting humanoid form.
• An ancient being ressurected destined to rule the universe.
• A spirit from another dimension taking human form.
• Just a normal woman, stop being so pushy, misogynist!
• It was all just a dream.

Soon she'll be asking Gill "Are you a god?" LOL

I JUST BECAME A GRANDFATHER!

Gratz!

Woohoo!

In reply to Skip Tracer (msg # 350):

Congratulations! Sorry I've been gone for a few days. Been a busy lately but I'm glad to hear the great news!

If someone wakes Andre and brings him up to speed he is going to have a couple theories and all of them are bad. This should be amazing!

Are the comms on the ship automatically two way?

Can the kids hear Lilly asking her question from the cargo bay?

By default comms feed directly into your ear link. You can turn them onto speaker mode so others around you can hear just like a phone. But it's always assumed to be private ear-mode unless you turn on speaker mode or the person on the comms is addressing a crowd (then it's assumed to be speaker mode).

Pretty much anything you can do with today's tech can be done in Starslinger + whatever is mentioned in the Setting section. Everything else you'll discover as the game unfolds.

So you've interviewed the passengers. Anything else anyone wants to do before moving on?

It may be worthwhile to have a moment to compare notes with each other?

Agreed.

Okay, everyone meetup in the mess hall. The aliens will go to their quarters quietly. Except Gryftrr who can now obviously go wherever he pleases.

Gonna snatch back that last post in engineering.
