Hello, um...hi, Miss Hypatia? I'm sorry to bother you, but um, my name is Jin Tian. I was wondering if maybe I could have access to one of the shuttle bays? I'd like to take a look at the surrounding space and the exterior of the station. Um, I won't need to use any special equipment for that or anything, so your equipment won't be in danger. And, I don't intend to go down to the planet or anything. I'd just like to see if I can get a better sense of where in space we are and stuff? Um, thanks in advance just for even, um, listening to my request.
[Jin looks exceptionally tired.]
Hellooo. Just, um, just thought I'd update on the uh, scanner situation? I think I'm about a third of the way done! People have been really helpful in finding parts and stuff. So, if things keep going at this pace I should be done with it in...a month or two? Then I can start studying the rift and after that I might finally be able to start trying to manipulate it! But, um--[yawn]--I don't want to get ahead of myself, so, just one step at a time, right? And I still need help, so if anyone wants to do that, that'd be great!
Oh, also, um. [Yawn.] This might be a bit random, but I was wondering if there was anyone on the station who might, like...want to spar or something? At some point? Like, um, with weapons. It's just, I know I should be working on the scanner the whole time, but I'm worried I'll get out of practice.
