Isaak Nagata, The overwhelming remorse #46 [Icarus - run italiana]

Interpretato da: M. S.

Toggle Work Group description

“Icarus is a discovery on-the-going, and we are a new world’s explorers.”


Even though Icarus station is a fully functional and sustainable structure, the asteroid itself is far from being completely explored, secured or safe. This, along with the need to keep the quality of the extracted ore within acceptable standards, forced Kowmang to keep an advanced science lab up and running. The primary task of the science lab personnel is to fully explore, map and secure the deepest areas of Icarus, places where one could find valuable ore deposits and dangerous hazards, like unstable or highly radioactive cave walls or pocket of poisonous and corrosive gases. Only when a sector has been mapped and secured the mining teams are allowed to operate there. When they are not actively involved in exploration activities, Science lab personnel is also tasked with performing routine checks to ensure the purity of extracted uranium ore complies with company standard.
Exploring the inner parts of the asteroid requires constant research and lots of commitment, and is one of the most dangerous activities carried out on Icarus. That’s why science lab personnel are highly motivated, competent and fearless professionals.

DEDICATION - CURIOSITY - EFFICIENCY - BRAVERY

Teaser:

Nagata’s five senses differ from the ones of other human beings.
The first is the sense of duty, and it's fundamental to fill in the gaps of other scientist colleagues, achieve objectives and set an example.
Cunning is the second sense. Some people think intuition is a gift, but Nagata always believed it's an exercise in perception, showing it off while leading an important RnD team on Earth in the past.
The third is the sense of justice. Nagata learned that during the exile in the Belt. Belters, Earthers and Martians have the same red blood in their veins, and therefore they are all equals.
To face bouts of depression, Nagata had to find and develop a fourth sense: humour. The scientist found it at the bottom of a bottle, and developed it through crunching powerful drugs. It’s true that with a big smile on your face life just surprises you every day.
Last but not least is the sense of guilt. It is the most important of all. It grew up from a serious mistake in Nagata’s past, living at the scientist side ever since, despite no one being emotionally equipped to carry the guilt for so long. And now Nagata is on Icarus station, leading a new team of scientists, and needs all these senses again, especially the last one.

Relations:

Wolf   is a clever colleague, but impatient. There are too many mistakes in the hurry, and Wolf did already one.
Aki   claims to be recognized as a brilliant researcher. Too much self-esteem can sometimes be dangerous.
Keller   is a good second, maybe too attentive, sometimes too surly. Nagata would drink and chat with Keller.
Leon   is always kind and ready to give words of help.
Soyinka   is the belter spouse of an earther friend on Ganymede, guested Nagata in his/her house when in need, and is a good belter with no hatred towards inners.
Voyakin   is a kindred spirit, but is also a person who brings unwanted attention.
Back on Earth Nagata had the chance to meet Connor  : the two worked in the same facility for a short time, but it didn't lead to a very close relationship.
Laing   is quite weird and seems interested in getting to know Nagata better, maybe for professional reasons, or maybe to feel less lonely?
Elliot   has all the negative traits an Earther could possibly have, and being in the Earth Commission made Elliot a dangerous person. Like a shark, Elliot is always on the move and always searching for prey, and prodded Nagata more than once showing a brazen racism.
