Those voltmeters I broke to slow down the repairs.

Day just needs an opportunity to meet with the person he is set to replace, and preferably his companion. Is this something Pacifica can engineer?

Yes, I believe she can share the target's schedule with Day!

The depot is in deep space, not in hyperspace. You have to drop out of hyperspace to get there.


10 days to combat after the depot is more accurate than two weeks: each jump is about four days.



If we do need to run the suppressant game again, we can run it quickly with just a few rolls, as you've established you can do it.


Nijothu Thovuthi works shields, which means he's constantly running all over the ship on a less-than-deterministic schedule. That does mean once you find him on the job it will be just him and his partner. He's on third shift, which means he works when Daymar is supposed to be asleep, and is off when Daymar is supposed to be working, and sleeps during daymar's off hours. If you remember, Pothi established an excuse for the two of them to visit the shield mess whenever they want... within their existing shift.

Wow, that was a while ago. It sounds like Day's best chance is either to visit Nijothu on the job while Daymar is supposed to be asleep...or while Daymar is off and Nijothu is supposed to be asleep. The latter might make it easier to get Nijothu's partner, too, so I think I'll opt for that. Unless there's a chance there could be a slight overlap in the shield mess, at the end of Nijothu's shift and the start of Daymar's?

Hey, that's great news Erick! That note-keeping shining bright!

Could you share with us the information of the subverted officers?
Names, positions and schedule.

I would like to prepare a strategy to have the contact each other.

After this, I guess Pacifica will be all set for the meeting we have IC.

The most natural overlap in the shield mess is for daymar to take a really early lunch and thus land in Nijothu's dinner zone. There are two different mess halls shields use, but pacifica has discovered that Daymar has the "invitation" to the one Nijothu Thovuthi dines at.

1st mates work on pacifica's schedule (2nd shift), and 2nd mates work during the time none of you work (pacifica is off, Daymar and Hua are supposed to be asleep). Remember that Nichapu has been subverted differently than the rest, to remember committing sabotage.

The other person I need to try to subvert is Chiki, so if she encounters Nichapu their "memories" will corroborate one another's.

Chiki Bukuzo is a navigator in the third shift (after pacifica's), if you wish to seek her out.

As I've said before, the ship does not have radio or wireless communication of any kind. Specifically as a security precaution. If you had a gadgeteer you might be able to jury rig one.
