Type: Text J. TEMPLE: Ty? Jeong? You there? {EXPLETIVE}, what's keeping them? The centrifuge is still offline - we're running out of time. C. DANVERS: No Riglink contact since they left, Chief. They're gone, aren't they? J. TEMPLE: But we armed them with everything we had! They'd have sent word if there was trouble - what, did they fall down a {EXPLETIVE} hole? {EXPLETIVE} There's a full tectonic load hanging off our ass... C. DANVERS: What if we turn off the gravity tethers? Drop the load - buy ourselves time? J. TEMPLE: I tried. Unless I rip out half the ship's wiring, it takes a CEC board member's override to drop all that ore. Can't risk {EXPLETIVE} off the shareholders. And without that centrifuge to balance the ship, we're talking planetfall in... hours. If we're that lucky. |
