I've been on this shift for 25 days and am really looking forward
to going back under soon. This has probably been the most boring,
uneventful shift of this entire patrol. Is he taking a nap after
coming out of his statis pod? I'm going to have to send a B.O.B.

down to check on him. I am totally going to file an official
report on this.
The B.O.B. just returned. Ensign Kenneth Hargraves is dead. His
statis pod had an internal malfunction and he was never placed in
statis. There are marks on the inside of his pod where he tried to

recreational credits.

+++BEGIN TRANSCRIPT+++
Fifteen days. It doesn't seem like that much time. It really isn't
compared to this trip. We've been underway now for 86,721 days
objective time, 33,203 subjective. That's a long time, but nothing
compared to fifteeen days with a malfunctioning food replicator.
Fifteen days ago, I came out of stasis to find that the food
replicator would only produce tapioca pudding. It doesn't matter
what meal entry you input, tapioca pudding is what you get.
Fifteen days is 45 meals, breakfast, lunch, and dinner...
tapioca pudding.
I've been told that the last twelve shifts have been unable to
find the fault in the food replicator. The technicians think it
may be a software fault, but none of our software specialists are
due to be woken from stasis until we arive at Iota Persei.
Operations.prime has deemed this to be a low level priority and so
no software specialists will be taken out of stasis to repair the
food replicator. I still have eight, twenty-five day shifts left!
I pass my other shift members in the passageways without comment,
without eye contact. We move more as if we are animated corpses,
pretending to be the living as we carry out our day to day work
routines. The miasma of dispair is palpable in the recirculated
air currents of the ship.
I've been dreaming about it lately. I find myself half submerged
in an ocean of tapioca pudding. I'm slowly sinking in the sticky
sickly sweet pale maggot colored morass. It slowly oozes in to
my ears, my nose, my mouth, smothering me. It fills me with its
cloying saccharine gooey decay, slowly devouring my very soul.
There is no escape.

SHIP: Everly
SUBJECT: Stepping Forward
It's been serveral months now since I've left Earth. Without a steady
day-night cycle it feels like the days are slipping away without
notice. I though I'd take a moment to jot down my current state; this
could be a long trip and I don't know how much I'll remember by the
end of it.

Ship: Everly
Subject: Trouble Sleeping
Lately I've begun to hear what I can only describe as metal clangs throughout my
night cycle. I've checked with the sensors team a few times already this week,
but they haven't detected anything, at least externally, that would be causing a
disturbance. No one seems too terribly concerned with it just yet, but it seems
to be getting increasingly more common as the weeks drone on.

That's it, I've gone mad. It's been over a year since I was posted on the damn ship and the boredom is palpable. I mean I'm writing a diary for fucks sake!
What kind of well adjusted young man writes a journal. Shouldn't I be out at the bar drinking or something with my other off duty friends?

Third shift manning a transporter pad is bullshit.

SUBJECT: Arrival
--BEGIN MESSAGE--
STATUS UPDATE:
The crew were awakened from cryosleep on schedule. 16/18 survived. We
lost Valton and Parsons. The crew is in mourning, but otherwise,
morale is good. Mostly, we're glad as many of us survived as we did.
All systems nominal. We had a malfunction with the recycler, but it's
been fixed. Our water is going to taste extra salty for a few days, though.
We are within 100,000,000,000km of our destination. Unexpected orbital
structure noted: possibly artificial? Unusual readings, must look into
it.
The system definitely shows signs of a spacefaring civilization! We've
been attempting to make contact, but we're having difficulty parsing
signals. I expect the same is true for them. Still, I'm excited. We
knew there was a good chance we weren't alone when we first got those
signals all those years ago, and now we've confirmed it! Let's just
hope they're friendly.
We'll give you a shout when something happens.
