That would make things.... difficult.

Specifically, it would make it difficult to pilot a shuttle with an Avatar thrashing about madly, disrupting the Centre of Mass.

So, he shocked everyone? Including People who weren't going to fight, wounded, and General Miyamoto?

Everyone but pilot.

I was not expecting that.

((Great. My plan worked. Less people to bribe.

I'm assuming that the shocking includes people in this shuttle only.))

"Now that all noise is gone dear Pilot, what would you say about 4 tokens to go grab Xan's brain for me right now?"

"I got a message a few minutes ago in response to a request I made to Hephaestus. The Doctor wants his brain for an experiment. Just got to drop it off at the infirmary and the nurses there will take care of the rest. And, if all goes well, give us something very useful in return."

Err... Ok. I guess.

Go pick up Xan.

It's technically an MCP-II.

Hmm... The MCP series is made of metal right? Wouldn't being completely covered in metal make the suit into a faraday cage, which would insulate the wearer from electrical arcs as long as there is somewhere for the electricity to go?

I think the MCP series is made of metal, anyway. I can't find the relevant information on the wiki or the Tinker thread.

I'd rather appreciate it if you guys don't shoot me.

If you do and I somehow survive, I'll turn the shuttle around and go back to the planet.

Peter was in his cabin, strumming on is acoustic guitar. He had stuck the music sheet he was using to the music stand with adhesive putty after the sheet floated away mid tune earlier. Every three hours or so, he had looked over the reactor readouts, trying to spot anything unusual, anything that might become a problem if left unchecked. So far, everything was well within normal bounds.

Peter would have to watch it more closely when the Wilhelmina launches, at least for the first week, because so far the reactor has been running at its minimal power setting and Peter has not seen it run at any higher setting yet. When your main coolant is also your reaction mass, you can't really keep a reactor running at more than that while not using the engines, the external heat exchangers can only radiate so much heat.

When the announcement came that the vessel was about to launch, Peter was simultaneously relieved and nervous. He was relieved that the period of waiting was almost over, and nervous because he was about to embark on a long journey with a crew of people he did not really know. He had met the others when they came on board and worked with them when preparing the Wilhemina, and first impressions were good, but Peter was always slightly nervous around people he didn't know.

Of course, everything should be fine. The reactor is in good condition and practically runs itself.
