I'm very much interested!

I love the mechanics of the player-driven solution–I thought Bump in the Dark was really, really fun, and would love to play more of that type of game.

Sadly the Victorian London horror setting isn’t one I’m particularly familiar with, but it looks super intriguing. I have listened to a couple of actual plays of The Between (I particularly enjoyed the Ain’t Slayed Nobody one with Jason Cordova as the Keeper), and it’s such a fantastic, mood-driven game... I’ve been eager to PbF this for some time!

Part 2

There is a buzz of excitement around Moonbase Alpha. While no one would actually be travelling in the Eagle back to Earth just the thought of passing on messages to loved ones was giving a moment of satisfaction to all Alphans.

Tac was continuing his efforts to collect the messages to loved ones.

In the Eagle Land Bay Dai was leading the team re-fitting an Eagle for it's flight to Earth, this would involve stripping it of weight and life support, and fitting additional thrusters. Fellow pilot Marcus approaches Dai and ask him to delay stripping out the life support.

Marcus "There are a few of us that feel it is not right that the Commander gets to rule on this. We're taking a petition for the option to be on the Eagle put to a vote." Dai is wary, and says that although he doesn't know the calculations, he's sure that there any additional weight cannot be accounted for. Marcus is disappointed and says he will take it up with Commander Koenig.

Isabel continues to work with Professor Elsa Mycroft on the calculations required to slingshot the Eagle around the gravity anomaly.

Joseph is called to investigate a break-in at the food store, the door controls were over-ridden. A woman was seen running from the scene, but nothing was taken.

Tac is down in Nuclear Control collecting messages. Sarah airs some concerns, much like Marcus, that the Commander should left people have a vote on leaving for Earth. Out the corner of his eye he can see that Hiroshi is trying to give Sarah a signal to shut up. Tac says nothing but reports his finding to Paul Morrow and Commander Koenig.

A short time later there is another reported crime, Joseph attends. Doctor Russell reports some missing

Commander Koenig call his senior staff together including Paul Morrow, Dai and Tac.
The commander says he is not changing his mind on allowing Alphans to be on the Eagle. He asks Tac to increase security measures and those who have made suggestion of rebellion have been confined to quarters until the Eagle launches.

The night before the launch is a celebration. People are drinking, dancing and singing in the recreation rooms, discussing where is the best place to get a view of the Eagle's launch. Tac gets chatting with Alice, a nurse who works with Doctor Russell. Tac feels his drink tastes funny, feeling it has been spiked. Alice says she can test for it in the Medical lab, Tac goes with her. Only Dr. Mathias is on duty.

Tac does see Marcus sneak in behind him, "Okay, I don't want to do this, we just want to be heard." Tac realises Alice must also be in on the plot, turning around Marcus is holding a Stun Gun. Tac manages to hurl a char at Marcus, who does shoot but misses. Marcus is defeated and Dr. Mathias come sot assist. Security arrive and confine Alice and Marcus to quarters, Marcus was already meant to be under observation but had slipped by security with the help of the journalist Lucas, the last of their rebellious party. With his allies now under guard Lucas would lay low and take no further action.

On the day of the launch Dai does not turn up for duty, it turns out he had failed to spot his drink being spiked by Alice the night before. He awakes with the effect of a hangover to find Tac, Joseph and Doctor Russell standing over his bed. Doctor Russel; ask if Alan Cart should pilot the Eagle instead, this spurs Dai to shake off his hangover and ready himself for the day

The Alphans crowd the windows of Moonbase to watch the launch of the Eagle piloted on Remote by Dai. He successfully manoeuvres the Eagle but is slightly off on his approach to the anomaly, but is able to correct it before turning the Eagle into the slingshot and activating the thrusters. In less that two minutes the Eagle is beyond the sensors of Moonbase Alpha with rapturous applause from the Alphan crew.
