OOC: And so you might! But for now, you're best bet is a fairly basic clinic and if you don't have it you freeze them until you hit the next system. > A few minutes later, Sasha barreled back out of the bridge, > ire in his voice... > > "We're making sure we have everything we need before we go > out, Sir," Paris says, her voice still calm and > business-like.

Paris has no problem withdrawing the cash, although, she worries a bit about the direction, and speed with which, her account has been going...down...the last few days. > "Don't sweat it--I got it," she assured Issac, patting a > pocket on the inside of her blouse, ensuring that her copy > of the ship's credit voucher was present. > >> Both Isaac and Paris know that on Glisten there will be a >> raft of paperwork for *everything*...a raft of paperwork >> that can be conveniently avoided with the proper >> application of a bit of grease.

OOC: This isn't going to be "Adventures in Accounting!" ;) You don't have to give me a list except for items you *absolutely* want to have in stock and feel deserve mentioning. Things you might mention would be things like weapons, vacc suits, rescue balls, hazmat (environment) suits, air filters/rebreathers, personal comm gear for the crew...that sort of thing...and you don't need to get it all now, just start stocking your Ship's Locker. The cost for consumables is going to end up being about (and it will vary a bit depending on location, skills, etc) 1000 cr per person per week. Or 2000 cr for the 2 week jump, as listed in the books. :) You don't need a list for that. Does that help? IC: The pair take a grav dolly and start walking up and down the aisles picking out supplies. Paris knows that she can get a "standard life support" loadout from someone working here, so she is only looking for gear over and above the standard things the passengers and crew will consume during jump.
