Good Cause Simulator: BARiTONES (saturday)

[ You’re in a sleek room full of all kinds of sci-fi dials and knobs. You feel like you’ve been here a long time with these people around you, and that you have a lot longer to go before this is all over.

You can hear the distant sounds of the station creaking due to shockwaves from the fighting outside. What is going on in this galaxy? Well, it’s not very important to you. What’s important is surviving.

You have a job to do. ]

...our state of affairs has worsened.

Why do they want our taxes so badly?

Lets run away!!

Cowardly, isn't it?

Well I have no desire to run an asteroid for no profit and likely death. We could steal the tax collector's ship.

I do not see why not. Saddling ourselves with burden will only weigh us down, if not utterly kill us. A risk is fine.

Yet somehow we are still getting promoted and are 'healthy'.

Someone is trying to arrest us for withholding our "taxes."

[ Absinthe is not zombied but he IS making this face, shivering bodily as he tries to wrap his arms around himself for warmth. ]

Come cuddle.

[ he's putting on Dawn's overcoat before stepping over to shamelessly lean against him, shivering full-bodied still but at least getting warmer. ]

[He will come join in the general warming up removing his coat and tossing it over his shoulders as well.]

[ he dons that coat on top of the OTHER coat and passes him a shaky nod of thanks as well, currently pressed up against Cosmo for warmth. ]

If the tax collector wishes to join us on a plague infested population, he's welcome to come. Pity if he would also get infected.

I rather fancy the idea of changing career to space pirate or something of the like. But that has its own risks.

We could weaponize the plague as terrible as it sounds as a means of combat. Or at least a deterrent.

But it seems a quarantine is in order first.

If we change careers we may have a better chance of living but not necessarily a better chance of being paid.

Our population should be protected as much as we can...

We either take it or strike out on our own as space pirates it seems. But we should use our current job ability to our advantage this round.

Space pirates would not change our chance of dying in the least, actually.

And it's more risk-based profit. Could be bigger. Could be nothing.
