[Wow Josh, super helpful. A long delay, and then either Aidan's done texting half the ship or he's too impatient to text because the next transmission Josh gets is all audio:]
I mean, it's fine right? Vampires are a thing here.
[Sure, he'll murder a few dozen people probably, but then security'll airlock him. No big deal.]
[Josh stop doing research they're mid-panic here. Gonna crit your hmd.]
I-- what?
[Because: no, but also it does kind of sound like the sanctimonious sort of thing that might theoretically come out of Bishop's mouth in the right circumstances.]
[No, Bishop is really more... mercenary businessman than bond villain slinging around bible metaphors - but it's space. Maybe the nanotech went to his head?]

Since when?

I don't know. The last jump? On the network.

[ Although— ] You killed him once, right?
no subject
Yeah, and I was all cranked up on fresh blood and Sally was still a ghost.
no subject
[ Or he is, anyway. Definitely talking about himself. ]
We've dealt with worse than Bishop.
no subject
[You know, just so everyone's officially on the same page of the murder handbook.]
What are we supposed to do with the body? I don't think Tyke or anyone, I don't know, ever is going to be alright with us chopping someone's head off.
no subject
I don't know, maybe him setting the lounge on fire qualifies as a beheading offense. The villains here aren't usually that dramatic.
[ Well sometimes they are, but they usually die right after, so. ]
no subject
[Long game, but means neither of them potentially gets airlocked or whatever for chopping anyone's head off.]
no subject
So now we just figure out how to lock him out of the medbay. That's easy, right? [ Said like that's not remotely easy, obviously. ]
no subject
[Which might be...slightly easier?]
no subject
Has he ever called himself an angel? [ Sounding slightly dubious. Nobody needs context. ]

How about "Lucifer".
[ Research is calming btw, you should totally try it. ]
no subject
I-- no. Not that I can remember?
no subject
Conclusion being that he still needs to die, obviously. So pending that tangent and some more thought: ] The storage rooms lock from the outside.
