<t>"We could stack these crates a bit higher and wider so sitting, crouching and standing are allowed, move some people to other ships so it's less crowded and food and water crates near you guys for when they need to be used. I get it may not be the best and entertainment would have to be your guys...

"Hello. How's it going?" Derik walks into the ship he heard noise coming from.

"Interesting... I'll go and check. Thanks for the help." Derik pats Tyra's shoulder. "Good luck with them." With that, Derik briskly walks to the docks.
