I figured you wouldn't want the comfort and reassurance of a lie.

[ Jim would always take the truth over literally any other option. And in this situation, there is absolutely no reason to lie to a grown man who is fully capable of helping in an emergency situation that might call for all hands on deck.

But yes, he fully agrees with Kirigan's assessment, and he shares those concerns. They can't even get out of here in space suits, since the airlocks won't work, and if Viveca can't or won't transport them out of the station should an emergency situation arise, there's every possibility that they would all perish along with the station.

... not at all a horrifying thought. ]


The things I talked about were more related to the day-to-day on a ship, or station. The kind of routine we should keep, how to keep track of time and dates. Dealing with the lack of sunlight, the lack of room that could lead to muscle atrophy, the lack of the same food supplies that might end up in malnutrition. It's not the kind of thing we usually worry on the ships I'm more used to, but here we are much more limited in all aspects of our daily life. Even if we do spend long periods of time away on missions, it's important to keep some kind of pattern, a routine. At least to the average Human, it's the best way to keep both our physical and mental state in peak condition.
