Before we submit a command like this, we need to determine what is in Marble's inventory to ensure that we don't lose anything important.
Marble started with an inventory of rusted skeleton (10), tablet (1), and translator (1). Later we traded the skeleton and tablet for 7 scrap, 5 wires, and a schadenfreude box. Later, Cea gives Marble all his items; a large magnet (2) and 10 glowsticks (1).
Before even calculating Marble's current inventory weight, we can see that she is currently carrying our translator, as well as all of the goods we got from our transactions with Pablo. Our translator is incredibly important, and if she were to get rid of our purchases, then all of our shopping with Pablo will have gone to waste. Why would you suggest she drop these things?
However, this is not a bad plan in theory, and perhaps we can continue with it without burning our important items. We don't know how heavy Andrus is, but luckily, the bulk of Marble's inventory was the skeleton which we ended up trading for fairly light things, so she should have a fair amount of space already.
Fairly unimportant things we can drop are Cea's things (although Cea might not be too happy), earning us 3 extra slots. This leaves us with translator (1), 7 scrap metal, 5 wires, and the schadenfreude box. We were not told the weights of these things, but we can calculate some of them.
As shown on our crew sheet, 10 wires weigh (1) while 5 scrap metal weighs (3). Wires are easy to calculate; if 10 weigh (1) then 5 also weigh (1), as they must weigh something. Assuming weights are rounded up though, scrap metal is a little trickier. If 5 scrap metals weigh (3), then scrap metal can weigh any amount from 0.4 to 0.6 (not including 0.4). For simplicity though, we can assume 1 metal weighs 0.5. Since we have 7 metal, that would be 3.5, rounded up would weigh (4).
The schadenfreude box we have no idea, but it was sold along with small music boxes so we can assume it weighs (1). This leaves (1),(1),(4),(1), meaning Marble's current inventory would be 7/12 after ditching Cea's things, if she even still has them.
Would Andrus then be able to fit in her inventory? We don't know Andrus's weight. However, we may be able to estimate this as well. The rusted skeleton can be our comparison, as it is about the size and weight of a person. It weighed 10 loads. This is likely around how much Andrus weighs.
This means that it looks like we won't be able to carry Andrus and our items in Marble's inventory at the same time. There is a chance of success with this plan, but we would need to leave behind many important items in a fire to burn. Even so, we also haven't considered if Andrus's inventory would add any extra weight that may but us above the 12 loads Marble is able to carry, meaning there might not even be a good chance of this succeeding.
Therefore, I say we do not do it. I'm going to second Fellow's plan of simply having Marble carry Andrus in her hands.
