Oh. God. You think? I don't feel bad, or anything. No headache, no nausea, nothing like that.
In fact -- apart from the whole "lost in space" aspect of things -- I actually woke up feeling really good this morning.
It's just... green spit IS a little weird, huh?
Man. I sure hope it's not radiation poisoning. It'd be tough finding a matching bone marrow donor around here.
Anyway, rat pellets don't taste much better.
...but I gotta do SOMETHING to get this weird flavor out of my mouth.
Let me choke down enough of these to keep body and soul together.
[Taylor is Busy]
Well, that was... "delicious" isn't quite the word I'm searching for.
Maybe "sustenance" is. And maybe just barely.
But it should hold body and soul together for today's field trip.
Should be plenty of time to go check out that strange peak to the north...
...and still make it back to the Varia well before nightfall.
Just one more pass over the ship, make sure everything's locked down...
[Taylor is Busy]
Back to where my escape pod came down. Looks like it rolled over during the night.
I guess the wind caught the 'chute and dragged it a little ways?
Damn. Must've been some pretty high winds. It moved probably ten feet.
But, hey, that's only -- what -- three meters? Three doesn't sound so far.
Things are less freaky in metric.
[Taylor is Busy]
Damn! Looks like the path I was on is blocked off.
I was tracing this shallow canyon, but I hit this huge boulder. Way too big to climb over.
What do you reckon... should I look for some quick way around it?
Or back out of the canyon and try another path altogether?

If you came here from Stick with rat food. or Get some shut-eye. and decided not to explore the galley but explored the lab.

...and then I'm packing some rat food and water, and heading out.
I'll keep you posted along the way.

Storyline C: Get some shut-eye.[]
If you came here from Get some shut-eye. and decided not to explore the galley nor the lab.
Oh. God. You think? I don't feel bad, or anything. No headache, no nausea, nothing like that.
In fact -- apart from the whole "lost in space" aspect of things -- I actually woke up feeling really good this morning.
It's just... green spit IS a little weird, huh?
Man. I sure hope it's not radiation poisoning. It'd be tough finding a matching bone marrow doner around here.
Anyway. Wish I'd found any kind of food yesterday.
Not just because I'm weak as hell and my stomach is starting to eat itself...
...but because I'd love to have something to get this weird taste out of my mouth.
I'm gonna poke around one last time, see if I can find anything at all to eat.
There's that corridor that branches off to the lab and the galley (the door to which is burnt pretty severely).
Or else I can keep hunting through the rest of the ship.

Subchoice A: Keep powering the pod.[]
This is additional dialogue that appears whenever you choose the option Keep powering the pod. and keep Captain Aya alive.
Well, that was... "delicious" isn't quite the word I'm searching for.
Maybe "sustenance" is. And maybe just barely.
But it should hold body and soul together for today's field trip.
The generator's still humming along happily, powering the stasis pod...
...and Captain Aya's still stable inside. I'd prefer "healed," but oh well.
I guess when it comes to miracle technology, you take what you can get.
Anyway, with her stowed safely away, I can step out for a few hours.
Should be plenty of time to go check out that strange peak to the north...
...and still make it back to the Varia before nightfall.
Just one more pass over the ship, make sure everything's locked down...
Subchoice B: You need that beacon.[]
This is additional dialogue that appears whenever you choose the option You need that beacon. and power the beacon over Captain Aya.
Well, that was... "delicious" isn't quite the word I'm searching for.
Maybe "sustenance" is. And maybe just barely.
But it should hold body and soul together for today's field trip.
The beacon's still broadcasting, but screens show no traffic in a day's range.
So I've got time to go check out that strange peak to the north...
...and still make it back to the Varia well before nightfall.
Just one more pass over the ship, make sure everything's locked down...
