Are you going to stay there for a while? I think it might be good for us to spread ourselves out. [ they'd agreed, initially, to keep their immortality quiet, but nicky figures-- they can pass it off as the nanites and if anyone has to die, it ought to be someone who can get up after. ]

i might try and take a power nap, so yeah, i'll be in here for a bit. spreading out is a good idea. we're probably better suited for this than most.

[ someone should probably tell nile that considering she's already gotten impaled in front of people... ]

That is what I think as well. That is why we do what we do. [ or part of the why, anyway. ]

carrying on as usual out in space too huh? not surprised.

they seem to be interested in straight up violence for the sake of it

Of course.

I can only assume they have some reason. Glory, power, money.

violence is a reason too

i haven't noticed them after our supplies yet, but pirate usually means they're looking for something to steal

For some people, yes.

I assume they are, yes. Resources, riches, other spoils of war. [ nicky has seen too much of the aftermath, too often, not to be worried now. ]

people and aliens, evidently

this ship ain't exactly rolling in the wealth. we gotta try and keep the supplies safe too or there won't be anything left for us to get by [ has nile only been here for like 5 seconds? yes. is she already going hard for the ship and people on it? also yes. ]

I am counting aliens under people.

Yes. And keep her from being so damaged we cannot go elsewhere to restock or for help. People, ship, supplies, in that order, I think.

good order. we can always find a planet to restock supplies. i've heard that happens often enough here.

dunno if i could help much on the ship front other than help defend the people making repairs or flying it.
