Second Mission: The Delivery (Part 1.3) - "The Crossing" #Amalgaverse
The jumper leaves the shuttlebay and swings toward the cruiser. The black hole’s pull keeps dragging it off its line, and O’Neill has to keep correcting to hold course.
Data informs Jack: “Colonel, I am detecting fourteen fragments of debris from the cruiser’s damaged thrusters on an intercept course.”
“Shields gonna hold?” asks Jack.
“Without a doubt,” responds Data. “Provided we do not hit anything.”
Jack considers this, then shoots Data a look: “Was that a joke?”
“More of a wry observation,” answers Data. A beat. “Colonel Carter says my timing is improving.”
“Here’s a tip for you,”says Jack. "Never take comedy advice from someone who tells physics jokes.”
Data, deadpan: “I am reading a book about anti-gravity. It is impossible to put down.”
Jack sighs. “Gonna have a talk with Carter when we get back."
How to proceed?
A) Punch through. Ride the shields and take the hits to save time, but at the risk of damaging the jumper.
B) Thread it slow. Plot a course around the debris while the cruiser drifts ever closer to the event horizon.
C) Clear a path. Launch drones to blast the wreckage, but every drone you spend now is one fewer you’ll have later.

“Pussycat,” after Lily’s nickname for Herman Munster. He’s moved into the terrace, lives among the cats, follows me everywhere, & doesn’t destroy my plants unlike the other wandering chickens 🥰🐓
I used a promo image rather than the movie for this one. The Twonky film was supposed to be sci-fi satire, but, to me, it’s an accidental dark comedy probably because it was based on The Twonky by Henry Kutter & CL Moore published in Astounding Science Fiction Sept 1942 which was definitely sci-fi horror. A “fun” read if you’re into “appliances” becoming sentient & taking over 🤔😉
