(OOC: Just putting this out there, but attempting a system reset should be made a relatively difficult task, Emerald, as not even Kiru has that access. The only crew member who has those codes is Itsuki.))

(OOC: I don't even remotely expect Nanashi to be able to do it. Just letting him fiddle around a bit.)

Shinwa cooly raises an eyebrow.
Viruses? What's a virus....is the system sick? Aren't Viruses the tiny kami of physical illness? I thought no one on the Warren was subject to disease. This sounds like something I missed. His thoughts race, but he hides them from his face. Well, mostly.
"Nanashi-san," he says slowly. "What, exactly did you do?"

Nanashi looks nonplussed. "I was scanning the planet, like you asked, for life signed and the rest. But the interference was bad and difficult to break through. But those probes down there are collecting info from the surface and sending it back to its home location. I just connected to one of them, fiddled around with it and found that the girl in the ice cube is 'alive'" he says while making air quotes with his fingers.
"But more importantly I found out where the information was being sent. The prob kept trying to open a Two Way webcam between the Warren and the World of Dreams. When I realized what it was trying to do I jaked out. But there were a lot of pop ups and really bad coding. I just wanted to clean the system in case I missed anything."

Shinwa sighs. "Can you disconnect the communications and scanners from life support, engines, and navigation, at least until Itsuki can perform an exorcism?"
"Where are the probes now? Are any of them following us?"

Nanashi turns back to the screen.
"I should be able to. There are a couple of probes around the ice block but two look like they are missing. One being the one we picked up. The other....no idea."

"All right. Do that then. Make sure that the life support, navigation, and engines are completely clear of these "viruses". I would put us into motion now, either to the World of Dreams following your lead, or to a Crane outpost to research Asahina Hana, but if these "viruses" have spread we may have to put in with a Phoenix world if there is a serious enough issue. If Kiru finds out, he might not be happy either. Too many directions to go, and only Itsuki can Open the Way. Making sure the ship systems haven't been compromised is our first priority here and will keep Kiru happy."
He considers.
"We should proceed assuming that the remaining missing probe is tailing us. This could be to our benefit if we can find it...we can lay a false trail, or send Kakashi after it to confirm, or even retrieve it in order to have a different probe to study to see if there is more information we can learn. You can send Kakashi to see if he can find it if you see him, but it might be challenging to keep him from playing with it. Other than that, we may have an evening here. We're hidden well. Something is wrong with Kiru-san, and I suspect I won't find out specifically until tonight. And I don't know where Itsuki-san went. We are probably stuck here until morning."
He hears a kerr-thunk from behind him...someone engaging the airlock doors below. He hadn't heard it from the showers, but he's been on this ship for several years, and all its sounds are familiar.
"Someone is looking at the probe in the airlock. I will go check."

(OOC: Could Nanashi try to set a destination and have the Warren head in that direction at slow speed while he tries to clean the systems? Does it work that way? Or does there need to be a pilot at all times?)

(OOC: There is autopilot functionality, but as just explained to Nanashi via fb, nobody on the ship other than Itsuki or Kiru has been cleared/given permission to fly The Warren before. Mostly for spiritual reasons.)

Nanashi taps the coms on the panel. "Hey, Itsuki-San, we need you up here. We need to get the ship moving." Nanashi sits back down at his station and tries to protect the important systems. Protecting the important systems: 5d10o10k3 19

"Acknowledged." Itsuki's voice sounds distant, amplified through the comms.
Nevertheless, a minute later, he arrives on the bridge...wearing a set of resplendent Shiba armour that nobody has seen aboard The Warren before. He wears a full daisho now, not just his wakizashi.
"Hai?"

It's hard to say if Nanashi looks more confused, surprised or concerned the the pilots appearance.
"So I tapped into one of those probes down there and we have a good lead. The World of Dreams. I'm going to clean the systems in case anything bad snuck by me while I got the info. We need you to get us out of here. Just in case."
Nanashi is actually slightly impressed with the Phoenix. He didn't know the Pilot even owned a set of armor.

Itsuki, inconfident, shy little Itsuki, offers Nanashi a deadpan stare, devoid of his typical friendliness. "You had better explain that again."

Shinwa is just heading down the ladder rungs to reach the airlock when he hears Nanashi over the comms calling for Itsuki. Kuso.
That starts him climbing /up/ the ladder rungs again. "Please, Nanashi-san, let the shugenja sleep, will you?" He calls up. "How is he supposed to walk the way with...."
He bumps into Shiba Itsuki at the entrance to the bridge. "Itsuki-san..."
Kuso, he silently swears again.

Did I stutter?
"Shinwa asked me to scan the surface and see if the Asahina was still alive. The interference was thick so I tapped into one of those probes. I got the info I needed and found out that they are transmitting to the World of Dreams. I'm also pretty sure that one of those probes is missing."
Nanashi takes a breath and motions toward the pilots chair. "Now can we please move the ship to....anywhere else?"
"There were a lot of pop ups so while you pilot im going to make sure no Virus snuck passed me." Nanashi gives Itsuki a look that he hopes will get the party moving.
