Lucid didn't pay that much attention to what people did in the moon base tbh, but she is excited by the possibilities that these new ships offer.
Castor's friend who can do J Drive magic is located on Miracle, so convenient! Castor does not have enough time to explain "The Path", it does not have 8 folds in it it. "A small group I joined during millitary service composed of psymsns. It's a telepath religion essentially, we all make it to the end of the road essentially... there's this figure who helped us build these interspatial roads, but there's somethings I didn't want to do, but we all build our own path. That sort of thing."
Peter [retends to be noraml, is not normal.
"Their man in the ksy is a great figure with 8 10s arms."
"That's as many as 80 arms! That's terrible."
With Castor chuckling nervouskly, we prepare to head to Miracle. Dot declines to join us.
We arrive on Miracle. Plays "Miracle" by Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding.
Peter also comes along to the Dokyard, to rustle up some engy types to help work on our ship. Peter managed to recruit 5 engineery workery types.
Castor's friend is hooking us up with a free J Drive. We're gonna get a big one for our big boy. We are also buying a Vac suit for Dr. Thorne.
Castor asks Alanna to join him for a drink to work out some spreadsheet shit. He is turned down very professionally.
We head back to Midgard with our new friends to get the J Drive installed into our new toy.
We will need to pay our new friends of course. Peter sits the engineers down for the Horizontal Power Structures Talk. Castor downs a bottle of soju and starts being catty with Lucid in the background. Lucid thinks everything Peter says is based, she just likes to make fun of the way his pants fit. Two of the engineers seem genuinely kinda interested. Lucid realizes that she should actually help him with this in the future, rather than being bitchy.
After an uncomfortable ride to Midgard. they are able to begin unloading all of the J Drive parts. on the moon base. It'll take 5 days to get the Legate Class ship Running. We need to bring 30 tons of "stuff" to midgard to get the other ships into jumping order.
To clean up the Harrier completely, will be 20 mil, just to fix it up with 12 mil. It won't take very long. We decide to get the Harrier Du Bois fixed up and tightened up.
