Moongray escape brainstorming

Record of the Move Eleven discussion about how to remove Remi and the mothlings from Station Moongray.

Italic text indicates a solution that appears to have consensus support (and Ashari's blessing).

What excuse should the party give for its precipitate departure?

• Ashari's art project was accidentally destroyed and they need to visit the rift for new inspiration.
• Set the station on fire, or trigger the fire alarms.
• The unfortunate illness (poison) of some important people.
• Ashari enthralls an official and persuades them that departure makes sense.
• The Rahal instruct the ship to leave because of apparent calendrical rot triggered by a rift/mothling interaction, heretics, or some combination thereof.

How should the party remove the mothlings from the station?

• Trigger the habitat's release from the station and tow it behind the Wasp.
• Claim they should be placed in proximity to the rift as a science experiment (probably won't work because there is no control group).
• Insist they are inspiration for the next version of Ashari's unfortunately ruined art project.
• Insist they are causing calendrical rot and must be removed.
  • Or collected as evidence in a heresy trial. The mothlings will be transported inside the Wasp.
• Sedate the mothlings and take them through station security in boxes, mixed with real supplies.
• Sedate the mothlings and take them across the surface of the station in boxes using drones.

How should the party remove Remi from the station?

• Insist he is inspiration for the next version of Ashari's unfortunately ruined art project.
  • Insist that as the dance soloist in Ashari's project he needs to visit the rift to interpret it correctly.
• Insist he is causing calendrical rot by looking after the mothlings, and must be removed.
  • Arrest him for heresy.
• Have Remi tell the Nirai he is spying on the party to learn more about the Wasp's drive.
• Sneak him across the surface of the station.

How should the party deal with the other ships near the rift?

• Have a good excuse for being near the rift, too.
• Hack everything.
• Arc by the rift while ostensibly on the way to somewhere else.
