It's been a good day.
I finally learned the trade secrets of armour modification. Not just the optional hull reinforcement packages — Selene Jean already taught me that — but the entire armour. Secrets Jean wanted to keep to herself. We were working on Nyx all night, still haven't finished yet but it's good enough as is. To be honest, we ran out of materials, but it's mostly finished, just rough around the edges. Needs some polishing, is all. I can do that back in the Bubble.
Component-wise, it wasn't that different from hull reinforcement, really. We still mostly used refined minerals and manufactured components such as core dynamic composites, but the technique was all new. It's a whole other proccess when one can't just do things partially or on a smaller scale as one can do with hull reinforcement packages. No, I had to be much more careful here, especially since one fuck-up could mean compromising the hull integrity of the entire ship and not just a part of it.
In any case, I haven't heard any news about Marsha Hicks and honestly I'm feeling a little bit homesick, so I think with this done I'll conclude my business in Colonia and start heading back towards the Bubble. Tomorrow.
Comrey out.
