Plus, the "Get to know the Team over Coffee" scene... which took them over 30 minutes...[SPOILER]So, I slapped some gravity waves at them. AGL or Prone for the first one. One damage on the second, stronger, one. They also get hydrated, and make their first NDD rolls.Big all hands message from Mr. Bishop. (The obligatory intro text)Lugar, the skipper, and Grey, the mate, do maintenance. Kills the internal comms when they fail. 12d, no 6's...Next shift, docking time. Lugar docks... then the gravity wave hits.... breaks the docking connector, and she gets the thing stashed in the #1 Plasma Maw.They decide to go en mass... They cajole Drabinski into doing the EVA to string a cable from airlock to Airlock.Once in, they contact Warden Stykes; he's sending some Joes to escort them.They notice something from down the hall....Hedenström spots that it's a cat... with a squid-like thing almost its own size.Navarre coaxes the critter from the cat, notes the station ID reading "Adrien"...Squid-baby tries to flee... Heldenström grabs it!Lugar shoots it, Navarre seizes the gun,, shoots it again.It escapes into the vents. Adrien isn't exactly amused, and paws at the wall, wanting a lift up to the vent. The party are not obliging.Navarre immediately calls Stykes, asking for ventilation shut-off.... a little whinging later, Stykes agrees... shutting all the airtights to their compartment just in time for Hedenström, who's headed down the hall, to hear squidbaby splat against the airtight within the vents...Everyone rests for about 10 minutes, Navarre convincing them it's done for.

(Ejiri needed to; those gravity waves cause him a fall...)The critter, having recovered its hits as well, comes back for round two... the Joes aren't there yet.So... second fight!Navarre shoots it... graze!Hedenström encourages the cat, "Go, Adrien! Get It! Go!"Adrien goes. Adrien Hits. It loses its last hit point, and the crit is shredded... so adrien's bitten and front grabbed the cephalothorax, and uses his rear traction to dig off the tentacles...They pop another short rest after praising Adrien and examining the corpse.[/SPOILER]</blockquote>
