Entry #004

I have been running numerous simulations for the upcoming expedition. I have had to revise my previous calculated prediction of our team succeeding of 14.7% down to 12.8%.

Perhaps there are other factors that I have not taken into account yet...

Okay, Numberman, so what can bring that number up???

Disregarding Akutagawa's safety brings up the percentage by a significant degree.

fuck you, not an option, try again

I'm sure I've made it clear before, Mukahi, you are not my type.

Stop being pedantic. Seriously, what can we do preparation-wise to make sure you all make it out alive?

Unless you can turn Akutagawa into a 70% functioning adult within 12 days, very little.

I mean, there was a drug Atobe gave him that kept him awake, but it made him really manic.

As I have noted below. It would result in a faster death. If it was a workable solution, I would have mentioned it.

Okay, so what you're saying is...you are real good at giving out pessimistic numbers, but actually have no good solutions or solutions.

Not at all. I find solace in putting numbers to the reality, regardless of what they may be and work with those expectations. Rather than your own tendency to sink into pessimism immediately.

This isn't about me. It's called a self-fulfilling prophecy. If you don't think outside those numbers, of course they're going to come true!

A 12.8% chance does not mean it will fail, Mukahi. Simply that it is unlikely to meet all of the required parameters for success.

I don't think I like that plan.

Maybe I should ask Atobe for some of that stuff that kept me awake before.

....You know what, that might actually work, as long as your objective becomes "Kill crawlers" and not "small IT projects",

I mean, not many IT projects I can do in a cave system.

so we just need you to do some weapons training.

I can do that!

Unlikely. Your body would likely give out after 4 days and result in a faster death.

Hmm... what about this spray he used on me that made me more alert for a few hours? Something like that to microdose me enough not to fall asleep.

If that was possible, why have you not looked into it in the past few months?

I don't like Atobe. Besides, my sleeping doesn't impact my daily life here much.

Then I would be unwilling to trial something like that on an expedition where you would be far away from medical intervention.

I mean, we could test it up until we leave if we have to.

If you wish to do that, you would have to talk to someone within the Medbay. I am not a medical doctor.

Seems worth a try.
