Entry #001

I have catalogued the cargo that arrived with me in the trip over.

If each person eats one 100 g serving of red meat a day and combines it with a 150 g serving of chickpeas to achieve the requried recommended intake of protein; given the current size of the Yomi base, our red meat and chickpea supplies should last 3 months. I have already placed in another requisition order for more red meat and chickpeas to arrive in a timely manner two days before this supply is finished.

The shipment also includes significant amounts of staple foods, with a large supply of tea.

Engineering - the pallets of metal and parts I assume are for you.

There is also a significant amount of wedding gifts for Yanagi Renji and Sanada Genichirou - Kyoujyu, while this goes against my data, congratulations on your marriage and on being unpredictable for once.

My name is Inui Sadaharu. I look forward to working with you.

I see. Nevertheless, it is good to see you are well.

Please let me know if you need assistance in setting up.

Likewise. The updates coming from Yomi suggest it is a lively placee.

I did not predict you would be here, or I would have brought gifts.

It is, indeed. There will be plenty for you to do here.

It was... a bit of an impulsive decision.

I plan to work first on my milk-synthesis. It is a useful staple that doesn't travel well.

I see that Genichirou makes you throw away your usual careful planning.

The more practical way, as I see it, would be to use mammary cells -- but synthesis has always been your favoured method.

There were unforeseen circumstances.

I will leave that method to the biologists. And they can debate the ethics of using mammary cells. Macromolecular synthesis does not have the same baggage.

You should have gathered more information before acting.

You certainly have been very successful with your approach.

I did not have the luxury of time.

52% of the time.

The human gestation period is still 9 months.

In comparison to your contemporaries.

That fact is irrelevant to my decisions.

I predict 1 week until I have milk in production here.

I had seen you the night before you left, you could have asked.

I wish you success in your endeavours.

Asked what, precisely?

I'm considering the possibility of making cheese. Reports seem to indicate that is a high value item here.

My office and lab were always open to you, Kyoujyu.

Yes. If you are able to make it, you'll become quite popular here.

I appreciate that. You were always very generous to me. That is neither here nor there, however.

I've never been one to care about the opinion of most people.

I see. Perhaps I miscalculated and reached false conclusions.

You will have to spend the next five years, at least, with these people.

The probability is 90%, as you like to say, but not in the manner you likely think.

Spending 5 years wih colleagues does not require popularity or producing items that would increase that. Doing so would be a choice.

I am recalculating.

As you like, Sadaharu. You always did have your own ways of doing things.

Take your time.

The consideration you pay to the 5 year contract does explain your affable nature towards a number of people here.

My bias may have skewed the analysis of facts.

It is my duty to communicate and coordinate with all members of the colony.

It is a mistake we all make.

I see your sudden decision to leave brought about more changes than expected.

Rarely.

Or perhaps you know me less than you thought.

No data is infallible.

I considered the possibility and concluded it was unlikely.

Other people's data, perhaps.

Have you been practising your shogi skills, Renji?

Such hubris, coming from you, Sadaharu. I would have thought you'd know better.

Yes.

It was a reflective 3 months alone on the shuttle.

Would you have time for a shogi game tonight?

I see.

I suppose I'd best make time.
