6-059: Merchant Freighter Spanial – Control Room


Karmen nods, seemingly happy at Lia’s candour and mollified by her charm, “For sure, I understand,” gently she says, “you performed the maneuver just fine.  You just need practice with the interface, I think.”

She touches a button and an interface opens on Lia’s screen, “Review the online training manual.  In particular, the part about how to access the online training manual.”

She stands, “I hope Kwint is ready with Hio.  I will see you at Mundo Zargo.  You have the Watch.  Any questions before I go?”

Lia would infer that ‘You have the Watch’ is a formal hand-over of responsibility and probably requires a formal response.  She would have used something similar in the past, although aerospace pilots usually use ‘your spacecraft/my spacecraft’ to hand over responsibility.

    Since I assume the Watch involves sitting in Control for hours monitoring things, is she allowed to do some reading while it happens? Cos otherwise she’ll be bored to tears…

    She is again, a little startled.

    “I have the Watch now? Are you leaving already?”
