[ do not try to figure this out, because we're not trying to either. PCs will just blink and suddenly whatever the NPCs are eating or drinking will have some of it missing. hammerspace. ]
My helmet at least has a vent I can fit a straw through when it's opened. I don't know about the others, I'm not really ever up that close to them.
Only a month with just us eight, luckily. [ they take a drink through the straw, before setting the beer down. they can breathe recycled air!! ] We were a crew of 28 for the winter tour, when the eight of us joined up. The original twenty trained us, and then over the two months there were some transfers, retirements, and some people going on leave.
That they'll give us a proper response at the start of next week. [ ganymede has been trying to at least reassure people that nut & bolt means the best!
they sound doubtful and kind of miffed, now. ] It might be that they have red tape they have to get through, or sent that the moment they received our transmission, since it can take a lot of time for us to send messages back and forth.
Also, uh, not that I think we won't all die without him, but do the bosses know there's a twelve-year-old? With this many humans, you have to know how their lifespans work.
I'm familiar, as a human myself. [ drops that off for nodd to have. ] We have cryostasis that we can use to pause any aging, at least, during space travel. And fortunately our means of space travel are fast.
But... no, I don't think they do. We did send our concerns regarding that forward, though.

alexa, play keep your secrets by frodo.
Do you not take off your helmets around each other? You're going around headless, full time? How much are they paying you?
no subject
Also, it'd get gross in here if we did that, you know?
[ there's a soft swsh noise as the little vents do open up, and ganymede will order... un beer. with straw. very boring. ]
But I don't really look that closely at their helmets.

Three months is a long time for it to be just the eight of you.

No, nothing like this. Which is why we've been scrambling to figure out what's going on for you guys.
