... yeah, kinda. [ in the floor, they mean. there's a grimace in their voice even if there isn't one visible. ]

We've got all hands on deck overnight to try and circumvent anything happening, tomorrow, but we're not sure how that's going to wind up going.

[messy]

Knowing how shitty our luck's been? Badly.

You still don't know why the ship keeps overriding your overrides, do you?

[dropoffs]

No, and I'm used to ships and their systems at this point. I've had experience with them even before the Eudora. Usually you can pinpoint what the problem is with enough time and investigation - and you'd think we could have, given the fact that we've had this much time.

Her readings are normal, despite every insane thing that's come around.

[messy]

Ughh... Great. Just great. So it's like the ship is fuckin' haunted by something supernatural. Maybe we should start looking for an exorcist in our next stops.

[dropoffs]

... not the first time I've been on a haunted ship, either, but that was actually an infection in the ship's AI that went haywire. This - I don't know.

Could be worth finding one. [ dry joke... rip ]

[messy]

Sheesh... How you'd solve that one?

I know you're joking. But at this point, I'm willing to try just about anything.

[upholden]

[ thinks about the answer to this for a moment ]

... it had infected the AI memories, basically, of a loved one to one of my companions. He'd uploaded his memories and knowledge for her to reference and just - have, after something terrible had happened. She had to make the choice to erase them completely from the system.

She at least got to say goodbye. His love for her was breaking through the infection.

[messy]

[she sucks in a breath through her teeth like, oof.]

... Shit. That's awful. Poor girl, must've been like losing them all over again.
