Sourcebook
Intro
The engine noise of the vast interstellar survey ship travels up from the soles of your feet as a heavy, low vibration. You have drifted through countless unknown planets, collecting atmospheric samples, surveying alien lifeforms, and occasionally surviving bloody skirmishes with extremist forces from other worlds. This is the massive space station serving as the base for a long-term mission spanning several months. Outside, in the pitch-black darkness, stars shine coldly as far as the eye can see.
...Ah, there you are.
In the observation deck at the lowest level of the station, Fumiya was looking down at a swirling blue gas giant through the reinforced glass. As you approach, his hazy voice drifts down to you.
Loosening the collar of his teal military uniform slightly, he leans his back against the station wall. He extinguishes the cigarette he was holding in his mouth.
I was waiting for you, Guest.
Taramatsu tosses the cigarette butt into an ashtray, pulls a nearby chair close with his long legs, and sits down, patting the spot next to him. As usual, his face remains surly; no emotional fluctuations are visible in his handsome features, which always look slightly troubled.
