Humidity is at a critically low level. Draining all sprinklers and irrigation lines. The water reserves are dry! The plants will die!  Fiddlesticks said that she’s going with Lightning Dust to go get a drink. I advised her against this course of action, and reminded her of Solar Corporation’s policy regarding off-station visits. She smiled at me, and thanked me for the reminder. She wanted to express her appreciation for me, for being “the closest thing to companionship a lonely Solar Corp supervisor could ever ask for.” She is happy once again, and I’ve already added that to the official logs for today. She appears to be happier than she’s been for a very long time. She left, and as the ship detached from the airlock, I very faintly heard the same melody she was so very fond of playing from the ship. Perhaps, when she returns, I will ask her if the melody has a name, and if she could look into giving me the ability to better comprehend it. It is, unfortunately, my duty to report when employees have gone against company policy… but perhaps the report can wait until she returns. She mentioned getting a drink. I have a hypothesis: Fiddlesticks may be going with Lightning Dust to oversee the transportation of more water! It would still require a report, but there is a good chance that the circumstances will make it a net positive action! I would hate for her to be in trouble with her superiors. One of the few mostly-functional bots found a couple of plastic water bottles she left behind. They were in the middle of the walkway, one of the few places the drones can still operate, and were not there before she departed today. I presume that they were intended to assist me in watering the crops? They will not help for long, but I want to make her happy. I had the pollinator drones empty them into the main water tanks. Afterwards, I will see if any maintenance bots are functional enough to repair the rest. The plants will be watered, Fiddlesticks. Thank you! Summer is my favorite
