Muzaka exhaled as he left the boiler room, the towel cool against his skin. Hmmn, she seemed to be lasting a bit longer after the tweaks he'd done, so that was good. But it was going to eventually happen again... His fixes wouldn't last for that long either. The place really was falling apart, no matter what they did.
He walked into O2 and took a few steps in before he slowed. He took in a deep breath but didn't smell blood, or see any. So why did it feel like there was something different about the room?
He peered around. Everything was where it should be. The big tree, his bucket of water packets, the...
Muzaka tilted his head up towards the branches. Oh.
"Yo," Muzaka said, waving a hand at the person sitting up on the branches, leaning back against the trunk. "You good up there? Kentas, right?" His suit was close to the same colour as his hair. Which seemed to have its own gravity field. Or lack of one, with how it seemed to stick straight upwards.
Kentas dipped his head at him in greeting. "Yeah. Muzaka?"
"Yep." He settled down at the base of the tree, the bark cool against his skin as he reached for a water pack. "You like high places?"
"Hn. It gives a good vantage point." He paused. "And it smells nice here."
Muzaka chuckled, opening a pack. "Aside from the cafeteria, it's the best smelling place out of the entire base."
Kentas smiled. "I'm sure." The smile slid off his face as he turned his head upwards again. "Are the leaves normally like this?"
"Like what?" The tree looked about the same as it normally did.
"They're starting to yellow," Kentas said, and Muzaka chilled, knowing what Kentas was going to say next. "The trees we use for oxygen are evergreen."
Muzaka studied the leaves now that he knew what to look for, and he could see the shift from green to a more sickly yellow as the leaves reached the edge of the branches.
How hadn't he noticed it before? Was it because he saw it so often, he didn't see the slow change?
"No, they were all green when we first arrived," Muzaka said faintly. Were they running out of oxygen...? If the tree died, they would have to rely on other means of converting more oxygen.
Kentas nodded, jumping out from the tree and landed next to Muzaka. "I think I know what I can do to help," Kentas said.
Muzaka grinned, relaxing. "That's good to hear. If you need help, let me know."
And hm, oxygen generation was something they would have to consider for the dropship as well...
Maybe he could talk to Kentas about that later.
