AMICITAS FLIGHT THREE – MISSION DAY 193
ARES III SOL 192

[09:31] JPL: Mark, have you, Starlight and Dragonfly had a chance to look at the engine testing procedures we just sent?

[09:56] WATNEY: We regret to inform you that the Ares III Hab is closed for business, as we are observing a Day of Mourning for Sirius Black. In the interests of efficiency we are also mourning Chuck Cunningham, James Evans Sr., and Cousin Oliver Brady. Normal business operations will resume at 08:00 local time tomorrow.

[10:22] JPL: Mark, according to Google, Oliver Brady didn’t die.

[10:47] WATNEY: That’s what we’re mourning.

[10:49] WATNEY: And Starlight just slapped me upside the head and refuses to explain why. Did you know it hurts like hell to get slapped by a hoof?

Author's Notes:

Yeah, this is all I have.

And yes, I went there.

I've been on the road all day, I'm tired, and there is no buffer, so this is what there is.

Next Chapter: Sol 193 Estimated time remaining: 18 Hours, 57 Minutes
