–After some time–

Taylor sent a message, “Geez, this was much further than I expected. My legs are like jello, and I don’t even know if I’m halfway there yet.”

“Great, now I’m thinking about jello.”

Taylor is now busy.

Chang Xiuya was happy to receive a message under an hour thinking that they wouldn’t make players wait for that long, but was utterly disappointed upon reading the message.

Turns out he was just doing a quick reply and going back to being busy right after.

There was nothing she could do other than wait.

It had finally been an hour, and Taylor sent another message, asking Chang Xiuya if he should go to the cockpit or the crew area.

Chang Xiuya remembered that it was previously hinted that she should check for survivors, then choosing to enter the crew area.

Then, Chang Xiuya and Taylor started chatting again. The pace of the story was really well done, cutting off right before something important was about to happen. Everytime that happened, Chang Xiuya was dying for Taylor’s reply.

Moreover, the story progression was decent, not too fast nor too slow. There were crucial moments allowing Chang Xiuya to make decisions among the all the clowning around Taylor did.

Under Chang Xiuya’s guidance, Taylor explored the spaceship, searching for food and shelter.

Taylor asked, “I want to go to the tail of the spaceship to set up my tent. It should be warmer there. However there’s a radiation source there. Could you look up if I would die of a night’s exposure of 150 rads? My suit says that the radiation is about that much.”

Chang Xiuya was shocked, “Huh? I need to check the amount of radiation?”

It seemed like a crucial moment in the story, Taylor could choose the warmer tail of the spaceship filled with radiation or the colder radiation free body of the spaceship.

Chang Xiuya didn’t know which to pick either, how much was one hudnred and fifty rads?

Feeling that it was a crucial decision, Chang Xiuya decided to search up, “one hudnred and fifty rads”.

“Absorbing 150 Rads shouldn’t have any short term side effects.”

Chang Xiuya replied, “Go next to the reactor.”

Taylor replied, “To be honest, I’ve been feeling really guilty.”

“What I want to say is, thanks for helping be today. This must be the worst day of my life.”

“Which is why I chose to believe you that this amount of radiation is fine. I guess I’ll know tomorrow morning.”

“With this happy thought at the back of my mind… Goodnight, no matter where you are. Here’s hoping that tomorrow will be better.”

Taylor is now busy.

Chang Xiuya tapped on her screen, and there was nothing else she could do.

“Do I really have to wait till tomorrow? I feel like I won’t get a good night’s sleep…”

Chang Xiuya was quite worried, although one hundred and fifty rads shouldn’t be a big problem, but who knew for certain that it wasn’t a trap? It was too late to worry anyways, it seemed like she had to wait a few hours for Taylor’s reply.
