OOC: As a side-note, that was the first post to include sections directly from the story version. As a rule, you'll be able to notice them by a slight formatting change caused by copy-pasting that I'm too lazy to fix.

Also, from now on, there's going to be multiple things going on in different parts of the ship, so different characters will see and hear different things. I have an idea of what goes on in all the various departments during the next 5 in-game days, but only some of that is going to make it to the story version.
I'm a bit tired from that WALLOFTEXT, so I'll wait an hour or two before I start the next one. No IC for now...
