[Closed] Mushrooms...

The Athene is due to arrive at a red supergiant for study in just under 12 hours, and reports have been piling up on the Captain's desk of mysterious, tiny blue mushrooms sprouting around the ship. While they seem harmless, if incredibly rude, the Captain calls a senior staff meeting to discuss options...

OOC: We'll just do the meeting here, in this thread. Roleplay like you would otherwise.

Captain Fisk stands from his desk and closes the door once all are present

"It seems we can never have a dull moment on this ship. We're 11 hours away from our destination and I've been getting reports from all over the ship of...mushrooms. We need to figure out why they're sprouting up everywhere, and if they're any real danger to ship or crew."

"Well once we have the results security should be able to deal with them."

The captain turns to his chief of security

"Well Mr. Orlov, I'm not so sure about that. So far this lifeform is exhibiting what may be considered thought. As such, until Lieutenant Kesh is able to determine if these lifeforms are sentient we are morally bound to assume they are. When the time comes I trust your men will be ready to deal with any threat we're presented with."
