"Statement: I concur. Report: I believe it likely that the closest flightsuit may be located across the hall in one of the officer's personal quarters. Unfortunately, from my observation of this section's daily routine, I judge it probable that the quarters are currently occupied by its resident; a V-wing flight commander. The next closest probable location lies in this section's closest hangar bay's storage lockers. Conjecture: I believe covertly acquiring and returning here with either is feasible, given enough time. Unfortunately my return and our subsequent escape attempt may coincide unfavorably with General Davil's return here if we proceed immediately. This would be unfortunate if we were forced to battle he and his cohorts or if they were to discover you gone and raise the alarm.Statement of opinion: I believe our chances of successfully escaping this station would increase significantly if we had sufficient time to retrieve the needed items and adequately prepare you for the attempted egress. This would seem to depend however on waiting until after General Davil has concluded his visit. Statement of subservience: I of course defer to your wishes in this matter. Inquiry: What are your orders Mistress?" The diminutive probot droid waits to hear its mistress' decision, readying itself to spring into action whatever she decides.[sblock=OOC]Naturally, 1X wouldn't leave itself or Dofina in a position to be cut off from escape by a blast door. As for restraining Dofina, my plan was to simply punch a series of small holes in the bulkhead first to allow the area to depressurize without risking being sucked out a larger hole. Once most of the air has been blown out then 1X could go to work in cutting out a sufficiently larger opening by cutting along from hole to hole. How long would 1X estimate it would take to complete such a procedure? Would it be easier and quicker to cut through, say, a transparisteel window rather than a wall segment? That would also have the benefit of 1X being able to see its shuttle approaching while it's busy cutting.I'd just like to confirm that the outer bulkhead 1X is thinking about is well outside the estimated blast zone of the various explosives it has set about station. I just want to make certain that 1X isn't going to vaporize itself or Dofina inadvertently by detonating the permacrete detonators (or the power relays they're attached to) in the flight control center or the officer's residential section. If it seems at all risky then, 1X must naturally choose an external bulkhead or window a little further away as its intended point of egress.Dofina is around what, fifteenth level? She must obviously know a trick or two if she's managed to live this long; that's a lot of survived challenges. Maybe the war's just been really rough on her. <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/nervous.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":heh:" title="Nervous Laugh    :heh:" data-shortname=":heh:" /> [/sblock]</blockquote>
