Much better. Thank you for checking in director. It’s my first jump. Sorry for the scare yesterday.
No need to apologize. I’m glad you’re feeling better.
And I’m sorry for almost missing the ship!
Just don’t let it happen again, Ife.

Hello Chief @soomin. My name is Cameron, and I’m an engineering student with the Institute. We’re supposed to shadow a crew member this semester, and I’m wondering if I could follow you around?
No.
Oh, is there someone else I could talk to? Preferably someone from the engineering department.
Absolutely not. The last thing I need is another trainee underfoot.
Hey Cameron! I’d be happy to help. We got a lot of stuff to show off on this ship.
Oh, that’s fantastic! I’m looking forward to it.
@kenv, we have non-disclosure agreements in place for all passengers, yes?
Yes, but the Institute has non-standard ones. Why?
Oh, I see.
@prakash Don’t show anyone anything that will get us sued.
I have no idea what you’re talking about Kenji.
That’s what worries me.

hey @zalmux, if you had to pick one crew member to be stranded on a deserted planet with, who would it be?
Does your question presume a topology of isolation that allows for communication?
no comms: just you, them, and whatever grows on rocks
Soomin. Their capacity for systematic resource allocation would extend survival probability. Also, their conversational patterns exhibit lower entropy than most biological entities.
Fair.
