Starwalker

Ship’s log, 19:39, 30 April 2213 Location: Grisette system Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol   I had to give them the list. I had to put the facts out there for those in charge to see – namely, the captain, Dr Cirilli, and Elliott. Not that my Elliott is in charge in any way [...]

Ship’s log, 22:53, 28 April 2213 Location: Grisette system Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol   Investigations into the sabotage are progressing in a disturbing fashion. I had to ask Elliott and then the captain for access to all of the archives from the first Starwalker. They were reluctant to open everything up to me [...]

Ship’s log, 21:41, 26 April 2213 Location: Grisette system Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol   So we’re still swinging around Grisette. It looks like we’re going to be here for a little while – Wong is fixing the filament that was broken when I opened that last portal, and Lang Lang is still working [...]

Chief Engineer’s log, 21:19, 23 April 2213 Location: Grisette system Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol   Chief Engineer’s report, following the ‘let’s stick something in a portal and see what happens’ experiment. You’d think they would have figured all this stuff out already, but no, apparently not. Maybe next week, we’ll do the ‘let’s [...]

Ship’s log, 17:54, 21 April 2213 Location: Grisette system (unverified) Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol (unverified)   Elliott just contacted the captain to tell him that the sensor array is ready. After three weeks spinning around this star, we finally get to do something different. It’s time to find out when and where we [...]

Ship’s log, 19:09, 19 April 2213 Location: Grisette system (unverified) Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol (unverified)   Someone on board this ship killed me. In a very real way, that person made me into the half-coded creature I am now. He or she sabotaged the pilot’s chair and murdered Danika Devon, and Danika became [...]

Chief Engineer’s log, 22:24, 16 April 2213 Location: Grisette system (unverified) Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol (unverified)   Just when I think I might be able to take a break, put my feet up for five minutes, Starry goes and comes up with a project for me. Typical, just typical. Worse than that: I [...]

Ship’s log, 17:52, 14 April 2213 Location: Grisette system (unverified) Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol (unverified)   Lang Lang and I haven’t been the only ones pondering the problem with the charts; talk in the Mess often turns to speculation about our situation. Alternative dimensions have come up more than once – maybe when [...]

Ship’s log, 14:36, 12 April 2213 Location: Grisette system (unverified) Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol (unverified)   Calling the crew together to tell them about what I am is the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Beyond taking control of the systems and disabling the safety protocols. Even beyond completing the Star Step. I was [...]

Ship’s log, 20:02, 9 April 2213 Location: Grisette system (unverified) Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol (unverified)   It has been a difficult week. First the hidden datastore was exposed and thrust into the light, and then there was all the questions. What happened, why did I shut down, how do they know it won’t [...]
