There's been a change of plans concerning former crewman Ploiatos.

I'm sure most people have heard about him by now, but with Mana disconnected from the ship and him asserting control, we can't allow him to take over. Especially as the effects are so dangerous to the current crew.

So we can't wait for him to stand trial. We need to quarantine and dispose of him. [And for this, he has some sympathy for their current captains. They spoke highly of the man Ploiatos was before he changed, and even knowing that he's not what he was making the decision to murder once loyal crew isn't an easy one.]

If this wasn't absolutely necessary I wouldn't advocate it. It sets a bad precedent. But this isn't just a case of killing a crewman that's become a danger to us without exploring other options. Ploiatos has been on board for over a year and during the entire time remained a consistent, pervasive threat.

So to stop what is happening to the ship we have to do what we have to do.

We'll need affected areas of the ship quarantined until he's removed and we'll need non-combatants placed out of range of the ship. Since there's nowhere to dock currently, we're looking at using transporters. And once Ploiatos himself fully contained we need to dispose of him. There should be several options open to us and given that there has been significant changeover in crew, a lot more we don't know about. [Considering how many people have their own special abilities.] Remember that Crewman Ploiatos is confused by large numbers of people and we can use that to our advantage. That's how he was contained the first time.

After that... well we can focus on repairing his damage.

I can certainly offer some assistance. I've been making some headway with a certain... issue of mine, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem. In fact, it might even be an asset.

Barring that, though, I'm always up for a fight. We ejecting him out into space?

Pretty sure the rest of the ship isn't worried about setting bad precedents.

[ Venom's voice over the feed is as steady as ever, despite the topic of quarantine. History repeats itself, even in space. ]

What's the minimum number of personnel we're going to need on this?

I'm afraid I'm rather new here and know very little of the problem at hand. I'd like to gather a bit more information before offering assistance with anything.

Might I ask about more details regarding this Ploiatos person and how it is he's able to affect the ship?

You're going to need someone to secure a perimeter.

I'm not up to full strength yet after my injury, so I don't think I can help with the fight, but I can definitely help with the evacuation effort.

Tell me where you need me.

[ If that's anywhere at all. Snake isn't sure how much good he'll be in this situation. He doesn't have any special abilities that could stop Ploiatos. All he's got are guns, and they've already established that shooting him won't work. It's going to take something a lot more powerful and a lot more supernatural to put him down.

Snake's not a pilot, either, which means the most he can do is try to make sure that people stay out of the way while this all goes down.

Still, Miller's putting himself on the line by organizing all this, and Snake will do whatever he can. ]

I don't suppose we can take a couple of days break after the husks. [She knows the answer to that, so this is really just grousing before getting down to anything.]

[She had been wondering how long it would take to come to this. While she hated the idea of ending a life that could potentially be saved, the imminent danger that Ploiatos posed to the ship, especially given the current status of things, couldn't be ignored. They had to think about the lives on the ship and what was best for them, as much as she hated what that meant.]

How can I be of assistance, Mr. Miller?

If he's been such an ubiquitous threat, I am surprised he's lasted this long.

[Dorian clearly has no qualms of conscience when it comes to potential threats.]
