Hydroponic Hazard

A retirement starship. A dead captain. Welcome to the Fresh Start, an interplanetary retirement cruise starship... In the old days, some wise old people would tell you that every cloud has a silver lining. The first thing Marcy realized the day she boarded the Fresh Start was that these people were simply full of crap. The second thing she realized was that her list of problems could actually grow faster than kids starting to cry and fight, and wanting to go to the bathroom all at the same time in her classroom back on Earth, a fact which she had previously thought to be statistically impossible! But nobody said retirement would be safe! The third thing she discovered was that you can actually kill the captain of the starship and endanger tens of thousands of lives on your first day at your job at the Galactic Bites Café, a job which, by the way, she had no clue of. Welcome to the Fresh Start-your safe(ish) interplanetary retirement cruise.Safe... unless you count the occasional unscheduled space ejection.Gravity works* *Keep those special boots on.
