Leaving the bridge, Nevanlinna made her way to the nearest hull breach. She found the section of the ship where the breach was located sealed off... though thankfully, as far as she could tell, no one had been present in that particular section when the breach had occurred.
...thankfully. Huh, a scant few years ago she wouldn't have concerned herself with sympathy for other species. How things have changed, haven't they?
Now... it was time to get into that section and fix that breach. Most would have needed a pressure suit, but Threshlings were not so fragile to require such things--unless severely deprived of energy, the vacuum of space was but a trivial thing to withstand. It wasn't pleasant, by any means, but it was certainly convenient.
Preparing herself, she entered the code to open the door, and as she did, the air in the hallway she was in began to rush past her, being sucked out into the endless vacuum of space. Using her ki to manuever, she made her way to the breach, reaching it just as the wild torrent of air died down. Being in a vacuum was... eerie... the cold was unlike anything else, and the utter lack of sound lent an uncanny valley sort of quality to the experience.
Mmm, now, she had an idea on how to restore the atmosphere, but she needed to find a way to temporarily seal the breach. The ship should have energy shields to do such a thing, but... ah yes, they were indeed non-functional. She could restore them, but... ah! Now there was an idea.
Holding out her hand, she mentally chanted an aria, a threshling magical array forming in front of her.
Boundary of Air.
Guided and shaped by her will, the Boundary of Air molded itself to the breach. It was a magical spell that would expel--and keep out--the air from a certain area, creating a true vacuum. And that meant that the Boundary could be used to keep air in, as it would not allow it to pass. An ironic usage, and one that had only just occurred to her. Ahh, her genius was without compare, at times!
Next, she floated over to the wall opposite the breach and lightly touched its surface. With a slight bit of concentration, a full-fledged portal to Vaikuntha opened itself and, immediately, the pure, natural air of the dimension--eternally renewing--rushed out and filled the section. And, to no surprise, the Boundary of Air worked splendidly as a temporary seal.
Manuevering over to the breach, Nevanlinna opened her tookit, removed what she needed and, after a few scans with the diagnostic tool, got to work. She, of course, had performed all her own maintenance on her ship, so she was well-aware of how to go about this, and soon enough, the breach was sealed in a rather more permanent way. Dispelling the Boundary of Air and closing Vaikuntha, she waited a minute or two to monitor the air pressure and flow... while also working to restore function to a few more damaged systems in the area. Ultimately, everything came up clear, and she moved onto the other breach, which was thankfully relatively nearby and fixable using the very same methods.
When she finished, she stood and admired her work for a moment, then activated her comm. "Mr Pantaloon, the breaches have been sealed--hull integrity is at... 67% and 72%, respectively--atmosphere restored, and I even took the liberty of repairing any damaged systems I could find in the area. Everything seems clear on my end... how are the readings on yours?"
