Chambers' quarters

A nice appartment designated for civilians. A medium sized living room, small kitchen, bathroom with toilet, and a master bedroom. There's all the furnishings needed to live comfortably, including king size bed and 65 inch multi-functional media wall monitor. It even has a state of the art gaming system with full immersive virtual reality.

Chambers' quarters

>>> Barracks: Mess Hall

Danny savored the moment he opened the door to his room, although he was upset, and had just made a fool of himself, no reason for this moment to be spoiled.

He mentally rose his cheeriness to about normal, and then opened the door.

What he saw actually made him stop moving, and his heart stopped too.

"Oh my god..." He started, taking a full minute to finish, "It's gorgeous!" he finished letting out his breath.

He was tempted to ask the AI if it was having another system glitch, but he didnt want to bother the AI too much...

"Welp. I guess I should move in" he said still in shock at the luxury of the room.

Mentally he was starting to cheer up, thinking about how easy this move was compared to a normal one back on the Earth.

All his things were already in the room.

His clothes were all stacked neatly in his drawers, and his possesions packed tightly in a box.

"Wow, this is like, one of those NostalgiaCrates from back on Earth" Danny said aloud.

To him, reopening all this stuff was like heaven, seeing all his favorite things for the first time in a hundred years, was like seeing a new toy, but in HD from the perspective of a child.

Danny closed his door, but didnt shut it completely.

It took him a half hour to unpack his stuff and place it around the room in seemingly random order...
Although the order wasn't random.

For Danny, everything he did was to make things better.

The order he used was like this: I want this to look as aesthetically pleasing as possible, and I want it to be practical, with room for changes when I feel like one.

He also set it up too look good and welcoming for someone entering the room, his little touch of genuine acceptance. 'Not like there'l be anyone in here anyway' he thought glumly, "Well until the breeding stage" he joked in his mind, while in reality, making gestures like he's the hottest guy in the world.

All this was in good taste, not really sexual or anything, just an inside joke.

Danny often practices up to hours a day, just to be able to pull off a smile.

When Danny finished it was almost 8:00, he still had some time first.

"I know JUST what to do..." Danny said aloud

He always did think of himself a little bit of an interior designer.

Although this little feature would be exterior...


Danny quickly pulled out a pen and paper, set it next to his Bed, and wrote a little note.

Using some tape, he stuck the note to his front door, it read "Hi friend! Knock, if I'm not busy I'll let you in" he added a little winky face to the end and had a laugh.


He then sat on his bed and started pondering the mistakes he made at Breakfast calmly, no need to be a crybaby.

After Danny was done figuring out his obvious failures to communicate, he knew he'd have to look into himself, and talk about the incident.

The thing is, when Danny had barely made it on the spacecraft, he figured, well I wont see any of these people for at least 5 or 6 years while I'm frozen... But I'll see them again


He figured, with the technology they had, he'd probably be able to make some personal calls, or something once in a while. He knew the Earth wasn't doomed for a while, so he'd have enough time to help save his species.


Danny had thought of so many possible ways it could go wrong, it stressed him out, but in the end he chose the option of going in.


Danny didn't have any loved ones per se, but he had had a lot of close friends..


it was around 8:30 am at this time, and Danny was getting deep into his psyche


'I assumed this was a possibility... Well there will be setbacks.' he thought calmy as he could be, 'Let's see... I know we'll probably find somewhere habitable before the ehnd of my life... God, I dont want to spend my whole life here...', he started thinking about the necessities for him if he were to be able to live with this.

The things he came up with quite quickly were these: I want to find a planet to live on, I know this place is nice, but Humans weren't meant to LIVE in space, maybe travel for a 150 years while frozen, but by the time our generation is done and old, things aren't going to be lasting...

He knew riots would start, inner wars would happen, maybe they'd all die.


He started thinking about the saboteurs for a while, before getting back on track on his list.


He also came up with; If we find a planet, I absolutely REFUSE to harm anyone who is native there.

He hated the idea, from the beginning, of Humans finding a new planet, and ruining it like the old one.


It wasn't hard to live VERY comfortably, and NEVER even harm a planet half the size of earth.



Although overpopulation would still be a problem...


He wouldn't live with himself if they arrived somewhere, and killed off intelligent creatures


He couldnt do that.




The third, final, and suprising thing he came up with was: I want a family.


Danny had always wanted to have a family, He knew having children was one of the most difficult things, but he knew it would be worth it.

Danny knew he would make a good dad.

Danny also knew he would want to settle down with someone, but was less eager about that one.



Danny drifted in sadness for a while, and then let his mind wander again.



After a while he was interrupted with an official-sounding voice telling people to buckle up if they wanted to, and that...

that...

We'll be leaving in 1 minute.



Danny was really happy to hear that, it was great to think they were making progress.

""It's all gonna be alright he said aloud, "Things will work out."


He put himself under his matress, just to be safe, knowing nothing would go wrong, but still preparing for the worse, and then he waited for the movement to begin.

He smiled under the weight of the matress, everythings gonna be alright, its gonna go fine, ill be ok, everyone will be happy, things will be good, its ok, its ok, its ok, its all okay.

After a few minutes Danny realised that the engines weren't going to cause an earthquake, he got out of his mattress, at this time he took his watch out of it's storage, and set it to 9:03 am.

Danny got up from under his bed, and shook off all his sad feelings, if he were to get back to his old self, he would need to be cheerful, empathetic, and attentive.

At the mess hall for breakfast he had talked so much nobody else was able to speak, that wass unlike Danny, he had listened to so many people's problems, he was pretty much a walking empathy dispenser.

He decided he would check on the injured guy he had helped earlier, and talk to him and stuff.

But first he got dressed in some bright clothing, this took a few minutes.

"Well, off I go..." he said to himself, checking his watch, it read 9:05 AM

From: medical facilities


Danny arrived at his dorm at 9:09 am, let himself in, then closed and locked the door.

He started rummaging for something to do in his stuff.


He was gonna re-read some comic books, but then wondered what games were on his TV


After turning on the TV, then the attached system, he searches Entertainment, narrows the search down to Games, and sees there are very few, he explores the console for another 5 minutes.

After that time has passed, he finds out he can download stuff from the E-Store, he quickly starts downloading a large game from Intense: MMORPG: Fantasy: Questing, that will take a few hours to finish Installation. Danny continues by getting some games under Casual: Time Waster, and after 3 minutes starts up the first one.

"Oooh, Jello Fighters XD, sounds gooood."

Danny sets an alarm for 9:55 am, and starts playing video games around 9:20 am.

It wasnt until 11 am Danny realised his alarm had failed to ring, probably due to a system glitch on behalf of Marco Polo (the main server for all games on the console)


To be exact, it was 11:04 am.

Once he realised this, he checked the clock on his wall for verification. He had not yet set it, so he checked the consoles clock... It said 11:04 am


Danny was unbelievably shocked, he suddenly was filled with dread, and anger.


It was rare for Danny to get angry, but he was changing in this new environment.

"Godammit." he said restrainingly.

Before he let out a string of very, very, rude curse words.

Quite a few he hadnt said in years.


"My first job in a hundred years, and I fail, what the hell AM I good for?"


he swore some more, enraged at everything.

He finished what he was playing (which had just been the same Jello Fighters XD (he had played the first 4 level packs out of 12, flawlessly, and gotten 100 trophies in each. He also had unlocked all the Common Characters, and found 3/4 secrets.))


He tidied up his room, at this time it was 11:11 am, he was so angry, he wanted to hit something.

He calmed himself down as he closed the door, leaving his room.

He headed towards the rec dec, still fuming how he had played vidoe games for 1 hour and 45 minutes.

After 30 minutes Danny wrote up 5 or 6 diagrams explaining all there was to know about his new building.

Basically, he was opening up the third floor, which would be the classy restaraunt

He would try and make room for a dozen people, give or take a few.

It would be open from 6-10, dinner, and late night styled themes.


He would talk to Mikoto about when she would perform,

and althouhg Danny was pretty good with interior design, he was a bit meak about sharing his taste, mostly cause he knew lots of people would call him fruity or something.. Possibly gay.

It would be open most days, and it would be a nice place to hang out.

To be honest, he wasnt sure what he would serve , he figured if he could top the Barracks, it would be considered Fancy, even though it would be more than well presented sandwiches, pasta, and the like.


He knew it would be mostly him running the place, and didnt plan to get much help, so the food would be slow coming, and you'd have to figure out everythng yourself. Danny was a people person, and good enough cook , he also knew how to make drinks. Though he had all the qualtiies, he knew he wouldnt have enough time to do everything. He figured Mikoto could help him, maybe some other newly awoken civilians might pitch in.

Overall, he would figure it out.


Once he finished it was 12:22, and he sat down to play some more Jello Fighters, which he had become addicted too.

It was a genre of game most peole called "OldPlay" because it didnt use VR, rather just basic controllers, which he had packed in his luggage.

He played that game until 2:51 and then got off and went to talk to Mikoto about her job.

From: Gym


Danny arrived at 3:31 pm, and started looking for his DataPad, it must have been with his stuff, and he lost it when he unpacked... He opeed it, and tried to find a way to download pictures, of the rest of the remaining people on his list ( Mike Schmidt, Richard Thornby, Stephen Cornell, Hans Fischer), he felt like a door-to-door salesman... if this failed, or took too long he asks Marco to download them for him.

Rick Thornby has just left his cryo pod and is on his way to decontamination, Hans Fischer is in medical, and Stephen Cornell in engineering. Mike Schmidt is at the cap;tainś quarters.

Danny, finished with the job, feels a bit creepy... whatever, I guess that's the internet for you...

He wrote down all the information he had gathered relating to the "mission" as he might call it, and went to go find Micaela Nieves, purely because she was the next in order on the list VanderBeek had given him...

It was now 3:38

Woah. That scared him. Danny had been playing this game for how long? Jesus, that was long.

Still smiling, Danny answered Eric "Mostly kitchen help, waiters and waitresses, someone who knows how to handle money, basically first-job stuff"

He tried to buffer his excited speech with a contemplating look, mostly succeeding, he continued his reply, "As for when to start, any day now, probably!" he finished gleefully.

Danny's answer was interrupted by the intercom, he made a soft sound of excitement, and then continued with his answer, "Whatever decent food we can make is what we will serve, it will probably start small, maybe a few hours every few days, where we serve food, and just provide a nice stay for our clients. I was hoping to have our on-board popstar perform,
 but she is... difficult, to say the least.

Danny laughed at Erics surprised, in a good-humored way, not in a malicious way.

"Yes, she is japanese... Fancies herself a princess" Danny said, not too rudely, but still uncharacteristically of himself., "Her name is Mikoto Mishida" Danny said, "but Im probably butchering it" he acknowledged
