Re: Forward Hold
"You're no fun, Mr. No-talk.", the Quarren replies to Rynn. "Has it ever occurred to you that maybe I am not a quarrelsome person, but rather someone to makes arguments for his own amusement, or to blow off stress? Under stress, like when about to get into a firefight, some people chew their nails, some people drink, some people clean their gun, and some people argue." As he talks, he moves through the cargo hold inspecting the cargo containers to see if they have been opened recently.
He stops at the hole cut in the floor that leads into the ship's superstructure. That gives him pause, not because it is so threatening but because it is something he had never thought of. "Huh. Got to hand it to them, that's pretty genius. We could have searched this whole ship and then done a spacewalk on the outside and never found them. No one is supposed to go into the space between the outer and inner hulls save maintenance crews in a shipyard. It's going to be tight and cold in there. Definitely not the comfortable place I'd like to spend the voyage in.", he comments about it.
