I think we already made the SHODAN allusion. The computer has assured us she is legit, though. Nothing could possibly go wrong now, right?
The GM already confirmed that this is inspired by Space Station 13, so unless it's malfunctioning nothing will go badly, and if it was indeed malfunctioning, it would already have siphoned the room to brutally murder us. Apropos, do note that in SS13 (in some servers, others use Asimov's laws) A.I.'s have slightly different set of laws from the ones we've learned from Isaac Asimov:

Of course, this might only be inspired by SS13 and I might be horribly wrong leading us to our doom. Either way, sounds Fun.

We asked if Titania was an insane computer that would ultimately kill us. This was after the Red Dwarf allusion, there on pages one and two.

Crazy AI is far too common in science-fiction for that to be an allusion to SHODAN's character. Calling each humans insects or fleshbags and wondering if the computer has a superiority complex would be a SHODAN allusion.

You move like an insect. You think like an insect. You ARE an insect.

Take care not to fall too far out of my favor... patience is not characteristic of a goddess.

Check the medic lounge for emergency kits and portable lights. Acquire six month old magazine.

Medical Lounge

You proceed towards the medic lounge. Disappointingly, there seem to be nothing related to medical here save for the health safety posters. However, you see an emergency locker which contains a fire extinguisher, an oxygen mask, a heavy oxygen tank, and a flashlight.

A table in the centre of the room has piles of magazines on it, and a bowl of Mars. Leafing through the pile of Playboy and WetUnathi magazines you find a copy of the Tau Ceti Times.
You also find Galactic Geographic, but it seems less useful. Hey, at least it's not a sexy alien magazine.

Ask TITANIA to open any locked doors, if possible.

> JANICE MORDECAI: Hey, Titania, can you open any locked doors, if possible?
> TITANIA: I would answer yes, but from your location and where you have been earlier I can guess that you meant opening the doors in the Medical Wing, which I can't.
> TITANIA: Something seem to have locked me out of interfering with its controls.

[...] Unathi [...] Tau Ceti [...]
Yup, definitely the Space Station 13-verse.

Check the date on the newspaper. It's probably old, but it'll give some pointers. Probably not the canon date as the newspaper should be named Tau Ceti Daily

Grab the emergency equipment. The fire extingusher is excellent for bashing shmucks' heads in, making the floor slippery and propulsion in space or on wheeled chairs. Oh, and extinguishing fires.

Find a medical records computer and search for own file. If the computer denies access, ask TITANIA to unlock it. Specifically, look for own name and blood type.

Check the medical monitoring computer for locations and injuries of people. Turn on own suit sensors if they're not already, so TITANIA can keep track of self.

Ask TITANIA for status on any robots and/or cyborgs on board. TITANIA said it killed the crew, not mentioning any of these.

Hey, any thoughts on me turning this into a pure suggestion game?
Isn't this already one? Players vote on the actions of a single character the success of which is then determined by rolls?

I guess I haven't been paying enough attention because it isn't.
