Reply to comment by librarian-faust in [WP] A colony ship with 5000 human passengers in stasis is heavily damaged in a meteor shower. While the onboard computer does not have the raw materials needed for repairs, it calculates that it has a very large amount of organic matter and a genetics lab. A solution path is now being executed... by lordhelmos
Uh, so to me this is also great stuff. You don't need a lot of world building. The important stuff is all there. Captain is just brains and eyes, in a jar. Ship is nearly completely organic now. It does leave a lot of room for own interpretation and ideas, which I actually like.
So don't sell yourself short, it doesn't always have to be a fully fleshed out setting. We get the gist of what's going on, and the gist has been produced in a well-worded manner. Again, great stuff!
