230th Message
Allen > What am I supposed to do? I feel so useless now. <
229th Message
Maria > No, don’t say that. The only thing that’s keeping me from totally breaking down is that you’re OK. Don’t take it away from me. <
228th Message
Allen > So what! At least we would’ve been together now. I would give anything to be there with you. <
227th Message
Maria > And then what? Have no money until some other captain had an opening? These jobs are far and few between since the blockade. <
226th Message
Allen > That’s not the point. You didn’t need to get on that ship. We should’ve just taken leave last month. <
225th Message
Maria > It’s not your fault, Allen. Who could’ve seen this coming? I mean, aliens? Yeah that was top on my list of crap that could happen. <
224th Message
Allen > It’s my fault. I should’ve stopped you from going on this tour. We could’ve gotten married and be on our honeymoon by now. <

Maria > I can’t believe this is happening. <
222nd Message
Allen > Nothing will get there in time to make a difference. <
221st Message
Maria > What about an Alliance ship? Hell, how about a Consortium ship for God’s sake! <
220th Message
Allen > There’s not a ship close enough to you, Maria! I’ve tried, but no independent wants to go close to you after what happened. <
219th Message
Maria > What do you mean no one’s coming? You’re just leaving us out here? <
218th Message
Allen > …Maria… No one’s coming. <
217th Message
Maria> Wait, Allen, your last message got cut off. When’s someone coming to rescue us? <
216th Message
Allen > I’m trying to find a ship but there isn’t anyone close and the rumors about the Safeguard and Madrid are making it hard to… <
215th Message
Maria > About three days. We’ll need to have that pickup soon. When’s the next ship coming? <
214th Message
Allen > Partial atmosphere? How much air do you have left? <
213th Message
Maria > All that’s left is partial atmosphere here in the hold. The rest of the ship’s in hard vacuum. <

212th Message
Allen > I’m here, Maria. Glad to see you’re still there. Um, how much did Engineering lose? <
211th Message
Maria > Allen? Are you there? David and I are in the cargo hold. Engineering’s lost atmosphere, but I was able to patch in comms to here. <
210th Message
Sandeep > Nothing. You won’t need to. They already know what’s going to happen. <
209th Message
Allen > What am I gonna tell them then? <
208th Message
Sandeep > Again, I’m sorry Obermeyer, but there’s nothing we can do. Their life support won’t last. <
207th Message
Allen > And what about them? <
206th Message
Sandeep > It’s of the utmost importance it is retrieved especially after what happened on the Montserrat. <
205th Message
Allen > You son of a bitch. Friis is gonna go get what’s in the Montserrat’s cargo hold, isn’t he? <
204th Message
Sandeep > Yes, we can’t. But at least we can have another ship recover their bodies when the cargo’s salvaged. <
203rd Message
Allen > Wait, but I thought you said we couldn’t reach them in time? <
202nd Message
Sandeep > No, Allen. We’re not going to leave them there. <
201st Message
Allen > So then you’re just gonna leave them there? <
200th Message
Sandeep > What, you’re kidding, right? The San Andreas is almost a week away at best. No, there’s no one close enough. Not even the military. <
199th Message
Allen > No, that’s not true. What about the ISS San Andreas? <
198th Message
Sandeep > I said they’re dead already. Don’t you realize it? There’s no way we can get another ship out there in time. <
197th Message
Allen > What did you say? <
196th Message
Sandeep > They’re dead already, Obermeyer! Can’t you see that? <
195th Message
Allen > Are you just going to leave them out there? I’m not gonna leave her out there to die! <
194th Message
Sandeep >And how many more ships should we send, hmm? We’ve already lost three, not including whatever the hell else is out there. <
193rd Message
Allen > You’ll see what you can do? What the hell’s that supposed to mean? We need to send a ship out there now! <
192nd Message
Sandeep > Ah, I see. I’ll see what I can do. <
