The arrival at Space Station Utopia was interesting, they had travelled for a few days in relative luxury on the airship, before arriving at a spaceport, and loading into a fairly cramped ship. The station itself was in near earth orbit, and as they approached, 209 thought she was looking at some sort of sea creature at first, the design aesthetic prevailiant on the airship, the mio-mechanicle, apparant on the outer hull of the station.
Once everyone had docked, Sue laid claim to a room, the station was still being renovated, so not many noticed as she took some peices of computer equipment and wired up her own rig. She didn't need a rig anymore really, hadn't since her transition. But she had a level of nostalgia, plus now that she had a physical body, she didn't always want to have to dive.
She finished up her algorythm on the rig as she got up and went to the cryostasis pod she had against the wall, entering it, she let the cords and wires attach to points along her spine, and her vision spread as she saw from the eyes of the pack of drones released from the cargohold of the docked ship, and set to work. 4 drones were set to erecting the satellites to form and connect the station's network to the worldwide grid. one she sent to the moon, most of her attention was on number 5.
and the months rolled by...
