>Also coordinate everyone's inventory

(this has been really enjoyable, nice soundtrack choices : D)

use mordis's room, cause why not?

>yo, lets check out the cockpit

Oh, you're captain, you should know this. That's the black box for when your ship crashes. You should go check on it.

> "Hykraw, that's funny and all, but we have limited power. Let's stay focused and try not to waste it on jokes."
> "What if someone thinks this is a prank distress signal?"

>Maroon: inspect the black box for ports, it might be worth it to know what was up before the crash

(>Kill Hykraw for joking about asses)
> Let's see where's Andy and Ray!

>damn it Hykraw not again!!
>go tell ray and andy about the news of electricity

>We're gonna do it, we're gonna get out of here.

>try to show that this is serious and keep inspecting

>Figure out how much you have to eat. Rationing is important.

Meanwhile, Ray headed into the ship’s storage area – which was only marginally bigger than a broom closet - figuring it would be a good idea to get a sense of what the crew had on board. Ray squinted in the darkness. Something littered the floor, but he had no idea what exactly. He wished he had batteries.



Suddenly, Andromeda entered the room, lighting up the area with his screen.









Ray looked around the now-lit storage room. There was the upturned plastic tub Maroon had brought, affectionately labeled “LOOT” with tape and a marker. Maroon had explained that he planned to fill the tub with any loot they looted from other planets, but on their way to the very first pit-stop someone decided to crash the ship. So it remained empty.









Ray walked over to a crumpled cardboard box labeled "RATIONS" and looks inside.

















Currently, both Maroon and Hykraw are eating three food rations a day, with Ray eating two daily instead. Ray can choose to limit their consumption to two a day - this increases the number of days the food supply lasts but could have effects on morale and spirit. What should Ray do?

> Make Ray limit his consumption, he seems fine with it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Limit rations, survival is best.

>Lowering the amount of rations eaten would give the crew more time to be rescued. That seems to be the most reasonable option.

A/N: ((Oh shoot, almost forgot, Ray can also limit one person's consumption and not both - like Maroon 2 per day and Hykraw 3 per day, or vice versa))

>Hykraw and Maroon should alternate days where they eat just two rations. Every third day they both eat two rations.
>Meaning that should extend to a fifth day where there is food, even though it would just be 5 rations.

>Do we have anything that could get us around faster? Maybe we should look into making the distress signal more powerful

>Ray and Hykraw would be the best combo imo. I have a feeling hykraw would be able to handle it better.

>Definitely limit rations. Ray's made this decision already, it seems, so it shouldn't be as risky for morale.

(if he does begin losing morale: talk to someone about it, Ray!!! bE a fRIenD!!!! They're here for you!!!!! They could split one of their third rations!!!!!!!! Picnic!!! AAAAAAA)

>Lower the amount of rations

>Hykraw and Maroon should alternate days where they eat just two rations. Every third day they both eat two rations.

>Ray and Hykraw would be the best combo imo. I have a feeling hykraw would be able to handle it better.

Ray decided to lower the amount of rations. Starting today, Hykraw and Ray would both eat two rations per day, while Maroon ate the regular three, and every third day all three of them would eat two rations. He also noted that the plan wasn’t final at all - he could change the ration plan at any time, if needed. The current plan would definitely minimize complaints from Maroon, who for sure would make a big deal out of it… Ray sighed. Sometimes he wished he was the captain of the ship instead. But whatever. You play the hand you’re dealt with.



He glared at the robot across the room. At least they got one good thing out of the AI – it didn’t need to eat. More rations for the rest of them.

>go tell ray and andy about the news of electricity

Not very totally destroyed, thought Maroon to himself.



Andromeda had forgotten just how many of these reminder sticky notes he had put up.



Ray didn’t really mind the current state of his room – the crash hadn’t affected much.



Uh...?

SpoilerShow

I don't necessarily need suggestions for the next update, but if you would like to suggest something (inspecting items in room?) anyway then feel free!

> Andy: Read the notes.

>Maroon, hug a poster for comfort.

>Hykraw: Huh. How odd. Your furniture has disappeared without trace, and there's a hole in the floor. Examine hole.

>Hykraw: Get Ray's help
>Maroon: Examine poster of dad, also the thing in the corner
>Examine the fridge

>Maroon: Examine el póster
>Hykrak: revise ese agujero en el piso con Andromeda
>Ray: Recoger algo de chatarra quede puede ser útil mas tarde
