Ask Pine

I'm on my own ship running solo missions. MIRA mandated I open a wireless inbox so I don't go crazy from isolation. We'll see how this goes.

CONNECTION ESTABLISHED: Awaiting Input

Hey. I'm Pine. I work for MIRA on a solo ship, carrying cargo between colonies. I know, a one-bean crew is unusual, but it works for me. While I don't mind the alone time, the higher-ups thought I needed to establish a wireless connection to other computers so I had people to talk to. So I don't go crazy, or something. Pretty dramatic if you ask me, but I'm not one to argue with them.

So, if you feel like sending me a message or asking me something, go ahead I guess. I'll answer when I have downtime between tasks.

Signing off for the night.

[ask-soloship-pine]

Well why’s it not legal? Are you in a dangerous situation and should I contact authorities or something for you dude

Let me put this plainly. I fucked something up. Badly. MIRA didn't like it. I signed contracts so nobody can talk about it. In return, they keep me employed and alive. Hope that clears things up.

[ask-soloship-pine]

sunrise: my apologies! I didn't see the other texts regarding that yet when I said that. so.. what's your favorite food?

Honestly? I miss instant noodles.

[ask-soloship-pine]

"Oh I know all too well that MIRA likes to cover up certain things"

"I am also one of those "things""

"Isnt that funny?"

-B

Ha. Small universe.

[ask-soloship-pine]

Have you seen them too?

- G

Gonna have to be more specific, buddy. I see a lot of things. I just don't entertain them.

[ask-soloship-pine]

Heyo two questions

-what’s your mission rn

-you said you were a researcher, what did you research?

-acenon

I'm transporting cargo to a new colony right now. Not a ton, but enough to warrant the trip. I used to research stuff like biology, mostly. Evolution, medicine, that kind of thing. I was pretty passionate about it.

[ask-soloship-pine]

Were you born an alien?

What part of "I cannot legally answer this" do you not understand? Do you want to get me in trouble?

Seems like getting pushed is wearing on him. He can't keep up.

[ask-soloship-pine]

sunrise: oh that's really cool!

oh welp tan had to go clean up the cafe, frost-bite must have made woods kitchen a mess again.. also, if you don't mind me asking. are you one of those alien things I've heard about? if so, how did you end up as one? were you infected or born as one? also again if you are.. I want to ask you a few things related to that and tan.

I've already said I can't legally answer that. I'm sorry. Just know I'm not dan I'm getting by just fine. I don't want to get in trouble.

[ask-soloship-pine]

Another Solo ship. Interesting.

And here MIRA was telling me I was "special".

- B

You know MIRA likes to keep certain things under wraps. I'm one of those "things."

[ask-soloship-pine]

what ARE you?.?.?...?.?.?

I think answering that would technically break multiple contracts I've signed so I unfortunately can't give you a straight answer. Apologies.

[ask-soloship-pine]

"Hellooo!! I've heard about you through multiple stories from other beans.. Pine right? Maybe if we get to meet could you bring me anything interesting you find on or in your ship? I'm a scientist here at MIRA and I'm always trying to find ways to make my work seem worth it! so I don't get fired.."

-Burgundy

Yeeeesh that's not good. Nobody should've heard about me. I didn't realize anything got out. I appreciate the offer but I don't think that's a good idea. I used to be in your position, there's a reason I'm not anymore. There's nothing interesting in here.

[ask-soloship-pine]

“Bing bong! Look behind you.” A message says. They feel a tap on their shoulder.

[ask-soloship-pine]

Hiya! Hope your doin well. small question, How did you get the position in the first place and was it one of your dream jobs?

I hope the best for your trips,

Gem alexis

I don't know how much I'm allowed to say, but this wasn't exactly my first choice. I used to be a researcher, actually. This was kind of a compromise.

[ask-soloship-pine]

hello pine! tan hazzrigaz and sunrise shwollas here, and we wanna ask some stuff while we have some free time in comms!

tan: how does it feel to be on a skeld alone? do you enjoy it or hoped someone would have joined you? sunrise: do you do EVERYTHING on your own?? like do all the tasks, cooking, cleaning, blah blah stuff like that ALL on your own? if so I don't think I could survive for long because I cant cook AT ALL lmao

Hello you two. To clarify, this is a modified skeld, so not like what you're picturing. It's really not that bad. But I can't have others join me. That's why I'm doing this in the first place, this is the only way I can work.

Navigation is pretty bare-bones, it's enough for me to do what I need to and avoid any potential obstacles.

Right below it is where I sleep and eat. I don't actually need to cook anything, I have dehydrated rations to last me longer than what my trip entails. I Keep my medicine and books in here too.

The cargo area surrounds the navigation room like a big U. You probably know what this room is for. But yes, I do fine with doing everything else on my own. It's not as bad as you think, especially since I'm the only one I need to clean up after.

[ask-soloship-pine]

we gotta send this guy to torture city man. yeah sorry dude

is that a threat?

[ask-soloship-pine]

well you certainly do have um a mouth.

Yeeeaaah that's a long story.
