Fair enough but seems that would land him in a similar position to how the party almost acquired a new tank.

Though he is still in reserve if we need him.

In reply to Nightmare (msg # 22):

I don't think you're on the same page. Fiernas does not see any need to hurry home right now, as the Amg are dispatching help and there's little good Persephone can do that they can't.

The rest of the crew may or may not be anxious to get home. You'll have to ask.

In reply to The Watcher (msg # 23):

Roy may be forcing our hand if he says 'here is your ride home.  Take it or leave it'

Also Roy just gave Nightmare every reason to stay behind damn you.  All that information is exactly what she wants.

In reply to Nightmare (msg # 24):

Rebecca and Billy are on such different wavelengths.  everything roy says makes me trust them less.

In reply to Billy Laser Fist (msg # 25):

I never said I trusted him.  I just said that he has everything that I want.

team kamikaze is waiting on Xander?

In reply to Billy Laser Fist (msg # 27):

Yeah

In reply to The Watcher (msg # 28):

Alrighty, Team Space Trek can't proceed until Rebecca and Fiernas agree on a course of action.

Team Kamikaze is still waiting for their friendly neighborhood hacker to act.

In reply to The Watcher (msg # 29):

I'm going to wait on Fiernas.  I'll take my conversation with Gestalt to private shortly though.  There are new truths he is not realizing.

Gestalt doesn't know it, but with the obliteration of the near earth hub and revelation of the AoS mission statement, Billy's reasons to imprison Gestalt have mostly been reduced to his being a stupid tool.

I know thats what I'm trying to impress upon him.

In reply to Nightmare (msg # 32):

Xander, I believe you have to choose between hacking OR shooting. You're only able to take both actions in the same turn once the AI has been disabled or suppressed.

Staying out in this end of space right now would be just plain silly.

I'll stick with shooting for now

If somebody could re-secure that gun though, that would be awesome

That's what I tried to tell you back on Ceres!

In reply to Billy Laser Fist (msg # 37):

So long as we have food to scan/Fiernas every ring on the way home... then yes.

In reply to Nightmare (msg # 38):

Does your plan involve Fiernas not sleeping?

In reply to The Watcher (msg # 39):

sleep is for the weak.

In reply to Billy Laser Fist (msg # 40):

You said last time that it takes days for us to get back.  How many jumps are we looking at over that course of time.  15 jumps in 8 days is very different from 80.

I would plan on allowing him to sleep precisely 7.25 hours as this is scientifically proven to be the optimal amount of sleep for a standard human.  It appears that I need only sleep 2.2 hours over the same period of time, if I spend the entire day concentrating on a task.  That being said I plan to not work at that frothing pitch but will certainly be operating on a much slimmer margin than others.

In reply to Nightmare (msg # 41):

It's a few dozen jumps this time, but fewer than 80. Couple days is likely, though the gates are not evenly spaced. Sometimes there is a long stretch between jumps, and sometimes not. But there is never a "sleep-sized" stretch, if that makes any sense.

In reply to The Watcher (msg # 42):

It does.  How much would time would it add relative to the supplies we have?

In reply to Nightmare (msg # 43):

Depends. Do you plan on orbiting the next jump ring until Fiernas wakes up, should you encounter one while he's asleep? Or do you intend to wake him in such a scenario?

In reply to The Watcher (msg # 44):

Essentially yes.  I would of course plan it to the most efficient way where he would sleep during the longest of the stretches.  Of course if he is willing to be woken up then we can do it.  Also depends on where in Solspace does this drop us off?  If we get to Solspace then have to slog it 15 days to get a refill it changes my calculus.

TL/DR So long as the supplies holds out until we make it to Earth time is not of the essence for me, safety is.
