"Ugh finally," Jana muttered as she pretty much picked a door at random and stumbled into the medbay.
a voice sounded in her head.
"Shut up, for all you know, I am... unsympathetic b*****d," she muttered right back in response, not caring that she was speaking out loud while the gun in her hands was speaking telepathically. Half the people on this raid typically talked to themselves, what was one more?
Glancing around at various scattered medical equipment, Jana grabbed something that looked like it might help and aimed it at the gash in her arm.
Unfortunately, it seemed like the damn thing was out of power. Or something. Either way, it didn't really work. Her arm was still bleeding pretty badly. Looking around, she spotted another person in the medbay. "Oi. Which one of these things actually works?"

Fortunately for October, there was nothing terribly wrong with him. Minus the fact that his uniform now looked like it had gone through a twenty-first century painting machine, he had come out rather fortunate in that he only had a few minor scratches here and there, as well as a large bruise on his temple.
His glasses, thankfully, had made it. They weren't strictly speaking necessary - eye correction had been fixed decades ago - but October liked them for their vintage feel anyway. And he kind of liked the way he felt with them on, even though a pair of goggles sat on the top of his head.
He'd need to find something else to wear, but October was, unfortunately, caught before he exited the room by a duty roster shoved into his chest.
Name//October Flynn Species// Human with cat robot AI named Tuesday Status// "You currently have a lot of blood on you. Thankfully most of it doesn’t belong to you. You have some injuries that hurt, however most of them are scratches and bruises. You do not need to go to the medbay."
It didn't take Aksaja long to find the Weapons System, the amount of smoke pouring out of a doorway a good indication of where it was. His lips lifted in a snarl as he saw the actual state of the room, wiring sticking out of panels and sparks everywhere. Well, this looked promising.
Setting his own weapon aside, the reptilian creature knelt by a panel and attempted to start re-wiring it. Thankfully, it seemed to be similar to something he had worked on before and he made fairly good progress.

October was currently engaged in what was possibly his least favorite activity ever.
Work.
"I didn't ask for this," he mumbled, slouching along the corridor towards the panels, looking more morose than ever. Beside him, Tuesday made a high pitched trilling noise; her sound amplifiers were still slightly off, her metallic tail flicking back and forth with little clicks.
"I never asked for this," October moaned, as he slumped before the frayed, sparking panels, wondering why he was here in the first place. He reached out a hand and pressed a few buttons at random, then decided it was too much effort to keep his hand raised.
He'd pulled a few cords. Now seemed a great time for a nap.

“This is nothing! I’m unstoppable,” wheezed Bing-Bing. She pulled herself along the floor, leaving a long trail of blood. She couldn’t remember the last time she had eaten. This minimized her normally impressive strength. “So hungry,” she whined as she gnawed on a pipe. She released the pipe from her fangs then continued to crawl.
“Stupid legs. Get your act together! I need you working so I can get to food faster!” Her ears went down as she admitted to herself that she needed to go to the Medbay. “Hello! Can someone tell me where the Medbay is? And bring me some dinner… About a dozen courses will do.” She sighed and crawled her way towards the Medbay.

QUICK REMINDER: This is an alternate universe/AU RP, meaning that the content in this RP is stand alone -- events, RPs, character histories, etc. Think of it as transplanting your character's name and personality into a different body and setting; all memories have been left behind.
If you have an idea that you wanna do (for instance, Molten Tigrex's decision to attack the generator instead of repairing it and/or kheleksul's decision to attack the life support systems), please shoot me a PM and run it by me! After all, we're all telling a sci-fi story together yeah? c:
Alsoooo don't forget to fill out your posts! Your posts help shape the story, as well as what happens! Failure to fill out your post in time means it won't be taken into account when the next GM update comes along and... well. Would it help to say that the ??? prize at the end has been updated to Quills? As in plural. :,D

To any casual passerby, it sounded like someone was hard at work repairing the systems. Anyone who bothered to step in, however, would probably assume Lucky was fixing it until they realized that hitting something over and over again with a large wrench was not] how you generally fixed things, despite popular video game belief.

The Captain gave a brief nod of acknowledgement to Kyle, her hand nudging the control stick slightly to guide the ship around a piece of space debris.
In regards to the computer...
The computer screen went dark. The machinery fell silent, clicking softly before the humming increased. A large segmented circle filled the screen, sections lighting up and darkening in a circular pattern before disappearing to reveal several icons.
Actions
Click on the icon that looks like a square, but with a line running through it horizontally.
Click on the icon that looks like fancy blue crescent.
Click on the icon that looks like a square with a small orange circle in the upper-right corner of it
Click on the icon that looks like a tiny spaceship.

Upon being poked and pressed, the buttons made a strange series of bloops. The lights in the room soften, then grow in intensity as a shower of sparks arks up from the systems! The screens indicate that the shields are back online, however Ern and Zelfos both take damage.
Ern/Zelfos have been bumped up to the following injured status: You’ve sustained an injury! It hurts, but you’ll live. You have many scratches and are bleeding enough to where if left untreated for a long period of time, you'll likely faint from blood loss. It is optional whether you’d like to go to the medbay or not, however it is unwise to go without it for too long...
Buuut now the Shield Generator has gained +20 HP!

Upon opening the create, 1YAR-1 found a piece of alien technology! It looked like a sonic multitool of some sort. Unfortunately for 1YAR-1, these sorts of multitools were color-coded to indicate their use and this particular one seems to have been caught in the crossfire of her ability. Perhaps she should try using it on various things?
Please add the following to your RP posts to keep track of it:

The soft sigh of doors sliding open and closed announced the fact that someone had heard the Ctarl-Ctarl's shouts. They carefully stepped over the long trail of blood that Bing-Bing left behind, moving in order to stand in front of her. "You'll find it if you keep going straight, then hang left at the end of the hallway." The second-in-command crossed their massive arms, adding, "And after you've gone there the dining hall is right behind you. Do you need to be dragged to the Medbay or can we expect to see you in sixteen jump cycles...?"
Maybe if he tried hard enough to not actually try hard then he would actually accomplish something.
Or maybe he could just press more buttons to see if he could get the same results.
October shuffled over to the control panel again, frowning at the circuitry underneath the metal covering. It all seemed a little bit of a conundrum to him; but on the flipside, if they managed to repair the weapons system, they'd have some sort of defense, which was good when all one wanted to do was take a nap undisturbed.
He reached out and tried to see about shifting some of the wiring into place.

"Ahh." Sin rubbed the back of his neck, on the way while exploring the ship. The alien ship with the technology that killed most of his crew.. with a few survivors, including himself. There was the question of what ranked as a higher priority--
Given the energy system or the weapon system..
/ Uwah, why can't you go somewhere nice and safe? The cargo bay, or the sleeping quarters / His AI was quick to ask.
"Ahahaaa, what's a little danger here or there? Life wouldn't be very much fun without it." / You want to go to a place with alien weaponry that can kill you? /
"Well, do you want to go to the energy branch where a single leak could probably kill us? I'd rather have some weapons in the case of stray aliens.." Sin wasn't idiotic enough to believe that they had wiped out the enemy aliens. In fact, he wouldn't be surprised if they were attacked again.. considering he couldn't get rid of this apprehension.
Arriving at the area of the weapon technology, Sin cheerfully waved at the person who beat him to it. "Yo." He waved at October.

Tria swelled at the feeling of accomplishment as the lights flickered. Tria must be doing a GOOD JOB. She hummed as she absorbed more metals. Awakening from their last dormancy cycle had been rough, as always, but, again as always, increasing tensions and violence in the solar system left much debris just lying around. What kind of a Lanius would she be if she didn't do her best to help clean up the galaxy? The flotsam and detritus of selfish coalitions of organics over the millenia would pollute the system. And where would the beauty of that be?
No, no. It is good for Tria to continue as she always had. Making the solar system a beautiful place.
She kept on absorbing. Bria would be proud of her.

"Electricity hurts!" Zelfos yelped loudly tripping over himself backpedaling away from the faulty wiring. Ern yelped letting go of the dials, his hands both raw and red from the shock.
"What was that!?" the boy shouted, his limbs going numb and his heart hurting a good bit. Zelfos shook it off a bit quicker and braced himself against Ern's legs to help keep him upright.
"Ern lad...we need to get you looked at," the rockman rumbled. He sighed bitterly as Ern pushed off of him.
"I will. Just let me secure these so that they stop sparking.I don't want anyone else to get hurt. Just...help me ok?" Ern stated looking for something rubber to protect his hands from the sparking. Zelfos grunted and pulled himself to the dials, trying to reroute the flow if he could.
Name//Ern Species// Human with a tiny rock golem (like the Rockmen but small) companion Status// Covered in a large gore splatter on his right side and a decent bruise to both shins tripping over Zelfos. Got attacked buy some rogue wires and is now hurt pretty bad.

Tria wondered why enemy units have not come to greet her, as was typical of infiltration assignments. Interesting, though, that they would just let her continue. Perhaps her crewmates were doing an admirable job distracting them?

When she didn't really get an answer from the other person, Jana shrugged and chose another device at random. Sooner or later she'd find one that worked. Nothing in here should make her feel worse at least. Right? Hopefully??
Aah yeessss. She sighed gratefully as the cut finally closed up and a good bit of the pain disappeared. Now she was actually ready to do something useful.
Heading out of Medbay, she started wandering a little bit at random before a loud banging noise caught her attention. Frowning, she poked her head into a doorway to see another human woman banging on something with a big wrench. "Uh. Are you fixing it, or breaking it more??"

The lizard-like alien glanced up as a couple of humans came into the weapons room and started messing around with things. With how big he was, they were all going to run out of room fairly quickly. Made it harder to work on anything. Turning to start on another panel he "accidentally" swept his tail against both their legs. Whoops. If they tripped or something because of it, that wasn't his fault. Humans were clumsy and useless for the most part. Tch.
Lips lifted very slightly on one side of his mouth, Aksaja muttered, "If you're going to be in here, be useful." Then he attempted to test out one of the smaller panels.

October was still messing around with things, tugging absently at the wires. He turned his head slowly at Sin's approach, blinking dolefully at him and squinting slightly, like he was trying to figure out who he was again.
Maybe he'd forgotten. It was October, after all.
After a sluggish moment, he said politely, "Hello, Sin. What are you doing - "
Whatever else October was going to say was shortened by the fact that he had just been deliberately tripped, October faceplanting onto the ground where he stayed there, quite content to not move at all from where he'd landed. Tuesday clinked over and sat beside his head, meowing metallically.
" - here?" October finished, as though there'd been no interruption in the conversation at all.
