After Earth

"Engines online and working amazingly well after all the time they have seen. Cnosos out" reply the technician from the engines room. He turns off the communicator, and turns to his droid. "You stay here and check everything is going smooth, if anything happens call me" Cnosos explain to Dorb befor he makes his way to the cabin
Once there "So we are almost ready to leave the nest ah?" he asks Damon and Mel

"Well, for now we'll be fine. I can treat anyone in their bed, but we may want to consider dragging one in here. I took the liberty of ordering a pharmicutial and chemical concocting stations; while not immediatly necessary they will save us on cost of buying pre fabricated medicines. Michael says, walking out of the storage room, "Currently we will be fine as far as medicines go; but if you'll excuse me "captain", I'm going to familliarize myself with the layout of the ship in the likely event that I have to rush to the helm or the engine room to tend Cnosos and Mel."
 

Damon gives his crewmembers on the bridge status updates as he runs his diagnostic routines, never looking up from his console. "Sensors online. Communications systems activated. There seems to be a glitch in our jamming equipment, but I can't quite get a handle on just what the error is."
 

"Looks that way, 'nosis," Mel replies absently as she inspects some recalcitrant gauges.

To Damon she asks, "Is it a problem?" Glitches ranged from merely irritating to catastrophically crippling, she well knew. "What subsystem? Just the jammer?"

She did a double take.

"We have a jammer?"
 

[sblock=OOC]I added a floorplan to your ship in the rogues gallery. And here's a map of the human colonies. One square in the map equals 100 light-years so this map shows an area of 300 by 300 light-years, which is only a small portion of the Rebuplic. The red colour means there is a home-planet of a race in said system (Sol being red because humanity's used to be there :] :uhoh: :heh: :lol: ). Blue is a system with human colony and green is just a link-gate. The green lines show safe jump-routes. If there's questions, do ask.[/sblock]

As Damon switches on the navigation console he gets on a holographic map of human colonies:

Damon glances at Melara and smiles. "Yeah, looks like it is just the jammer." He looks back down at his console. "Everything else is in the green." He taps a few keys, piping the nav display on to one of the forward screens. "Nav systems online and functioning within normal parameters; Nav display is up."
 

"For the 56th time, it's CNOSOS god dammit! You two are going to get some real troubles here if you don't change your attitude." the technician replies severely, like a father scolding his child.
"Now let's check that jam then. Oh, where is it? I'm kind of lost here, didn't really know how did I get here..." Cnosos asks
 

"Hold a moment, Cnosis," says Damon, smiling at the man's outburst. He quickly calls up a schematic of the ship's systems, indicating the location of the jamming system. "I've got the schematics showing the jammer; piping them through to engineering now."
 

"Damn," Mel comments, making sure it's not on the comm system. "He's sounding as old as this ship these days."

She then flicks her headset back on. "Looks like we're basically golden up here, Captain-sir. Are you gonna have us launch, or is this just a big tease?"

(Edit - Somewhere I started forgetting to use my color!)
 

Faris joins the others at the bridge "Alright, if you're all satisfied we're ready to go. Mel, you can take her out whenever you're ready. Just give the flight control boys a call first. Unless anyone can think of anything we really just can't do in flight."
