[ John is prevaricating around direct questions, which strikes Jim as odd since the guy told him he was air force; so we're here at Thanks For Your Assistance, Good Citizen. He's being honest, though, since it is useful to know what results a technopath is getting. He really doesn't have the time or the temperament to try to 'manage' anyone, and is just trying to find a way to talk to John that nets clearer results. :( ]
Don't worry, that kind of pattern monitoring is one of the first things I started when I got here.
Nah. This ship is slightly older tech than what I'm used to. Push comes to shove, there's options. It's just a matter of trying to find the least invasive, for now.
[ Older Tech? The phrase spawns a million more questions. Is this a sweeping comment about the complexity of Natha gear, the literal age of the station, something else? They clearly have transporters and stasis pods so they're not exactly backwards.
Is Kirk middle management of fancy time-travelling people who scrap anything older than three years? Who knows.
Clearly they're not advanced enough to avoid being destroyed by the storm like everyone else. ]
I'm not so good at delicate, non-invasive options so I guess give me a call when you get past that desire.
