"Hmph." She does a overly animated "about face", then gets to her duties in the engineering wing.\n\nTsunadere to the end. that's <<$engineer>> for you.\n\n"I heard you guys fighting like cats and dogs again" A young man's voice echoes at the end of the pilot's corridor. He walks closer to reveal a carbon fiber eyepatch over his left eye. "You know you got a crush on her."\n\n"I can't tell her that" I whisper to him as we both look at the sihoulette of <<$engineer>>'s brickhouse features. "Her ego would become the size of Olympus Mons."\n\n"Too true." he snickers.\n\n\n"So, how far away are we from the excavation site, pilot <<textinput $pilot ?>>
The brightness of the Sun awakens you from a seemingly long slumber. As you open your eyes for a glance at your surroundings, it all come rushing back...\n\n\n\n\nYou and your crew crashed here.\n\n\n\nIt all started when an seemingly simple issue turned problematic back on the ship...\n\n[[Continue|1]]
"Hey, captain. Want to go for a smoke?"\n\nI've told that woman a million times not to smoke in an oxygen rich environment. "I thought I told you..."\n\n"Ha, gotcha!" She exclaimed with a small rectangular rod in her hand. "these are the new OSR's I bought just for this moment." She takes a puff of the one in her hand. "See? No flame to be found."\n\n"What about our carbon emissions, they'll be through the roof the way you puff on those things," I retort. "Might as well call you Huff the Haptic Dragon."\n\n"Oh but thats the good part", she beams. "Check this out."\n\n"I stare intently at her pouting lips as she takes a decent pull off the OCR. My eyes widen as she exhales. The water in the air is freezing whereever she's exhaling at!\n\n"You don't breathe out carbon like most Siphoning Respirators," she says proudly. "You breath out high temp grade nitrogen...cool right?" She smirks at her accidental hilarity. \n\n"Ok, ya got me. Thats pretty damn sweet." I motion to the engineering wing, "Now get back to work, engineer <<textinput $engineer Okay...>>\n
All I see is sand.\n\nWhat lies ahead is for me to discover.\n\n\nI barely remember my name at this point...\n\n\nCome to think of it,\n\nWhat is my name?\n<<textinput $captain Roger_That!>>\n\n\n\n\n

"We got a bit of time before the site is even in view." <<$pilot>> says. Then sporting a michievious grin on his face he says, "Well I know you and the engineer have some things you guys need to talk about...behind closed doors...oof!\n\nI give him a light jab to the stomach as he continues on, laughing and coughing at the same time, "...maybe I could find some scented candles for the occassion..."\n\n"What occassion?"\n\nOh, <<$engineer>>! \n\nMe and <<$pilot>> stood up in unison as staight as spears. The pilot elbows me to respond to her question.\n\n"Oh...uhh hmm," I clear my throat as I think up a response. "Nothing in particular...just men being men..."\n\nShe looks at <<$pilot>>, then back at me. She clearly doesn't buy it.\n\n"Anyways," Her face wears a more serious expression. "We have a problem. Come with me to engineering, Captain."\n\nAs we are walking past <<$pilot>> he whispers, "You are the man, <<$captain>>!\n\n[[Next|Thank You]]\n\n
