Since the first meeting did not work out, Daymar tries again for the second time.

Well if we're going onto the second meeting, same trick as last time.

3d6 <= 16 : 1 + 5 + 2 = 8 ... success
Then I say:
"Hi. Small bit of trouble handling the food; got my previous buddy blamed, so no suspicion there."
"A bunch of other people have been arrested; some of yours? Security was a little cagey about it."
"I should be ready to raid the armoury in the next day or two; I'll try to get you a weapon then."
"I think I'll have my powers in by breakfast time day after tomorrow."
"My buddy is up-stairs; do you think we should edit my buddy so she won't think to go looking for me when I'm not there?"

Daymar and Hua have both made it to the second meeting. However, at the time Pacifica is supposed to be at the second meeting, she is scheduled to be busy at work, surrounded by over two dozen people who will notice if she leaves. Is she going to make an attempt to get to the second meeting, or will she have to settle for the third (when she will only have Nejora has her companion)?

Hua and Daymar are having their meeting: Daymar has already met with Pacifica. (though if you want to have that conversation now, I have no objections)

Daymar catches Hua up on what has gone down in his section, "They're getting nervous and clamping down hard. I'm not sure how much time we have to take control of the ship. Pacifica suggested I try subverting some doctors, but I think the officers might be a better choice, but risky. If we can be in the same place, I could try subverting your buddy."

"I doubt they're going to turn around and change crew. Surely we still have, one or two weeks before we reach the front lines? We have time, but it might be tight."

"Well, do you have any particular officer in mind? Here's a half-baked plan; we find a period where an officer is relatively isolated. I turn invisible and wait for them. When they come by, I zap their brain and leave them dazed for a minute or three. You come by, make your edits and go on your way."

"Just out of curiosity, have you considered turning your whole section? Build up to a critical mass, then have your lackeys hold the remainder down while you made the necessary edits?"

OOC: Pacifica is working business as usual, hoping to meet with her team at a later time.

"As high-up as I can get, for officers. I'd be willing to give your plan a try. And I've considered turning my whole section, but it's risky. One person resisting could alert security and then I'm done. But yeah, that's worth a try, too. I already have several who are conditioned to not be suspicious of my actions."

"I've got an idea to get my buddy and you in the same place non-suspicious like. I go up one floor hang out with my buddy, then shortly after decide to return to our bunkroom. You go up one floor, and just when we're waiting for an elevator, you come out, accidental contact, and you make the adjustments."

That is enough of a success to count, should you choose to use it.
