Picking Azara because we missed a session where we could've gambled with Sunny (who's dead now)

Owusu because he's best boy, also I want to get the favor over with

Nazaret because she's someone we haven't interacted properly yet, also fellow mystery novel lover

Finally, I went with the Redeeming option because fellow pirates, also it's in addition to making it up to Owusu (at least it is in my head)

I don't feel like I want to fix the relationship with Amani just yet, maybe next time.

Seriously, don't piss off your mechanic, we need to have machine at tip-top condition to survive this against newtype plot armour.

Pick three options from the following list:

[ ] Azara ropes you into gambling with your squad
[ ] You see if Cam feels any better about this fight than the last one
[ ] You see if Ryan thinks any better of you, now that you've fought pirates together
[ ] See whether Owusu has any hard feelings toward your crew as a whole
[ ] Take Nazaret up on their book talk request

I'm favouring these 3 to keep the crew coheasion running.
 
The more I think about it, the more I'm for that Redeeming option, not just for the sake of making up past mistakes. I see it as something like Kana's thing to go participate in pirate interrogation

It's a testament of Kana's interpersonal skills and social competency that all three options to earn favor with someone are technically actually about fixing things between her and someone she has already pissed off.
 
To elaborate more on how I generally think about it.

[ ] Azara ropes you into gambling with your squad

Azara's fun to hang around. We missed a vote at the beginning where we could've had a bonding session with her and Sunny (which pretty much cost him there). Now we get back to it, this time with Azara and Kitty (also makes her feel better for her fuck-up)

[ ] You see if Cam feels any better about this fight than the last one

I really want to pick Cam. I really do. I like her character. I'm also curious about her opinion on SRI and our downed reputation. Unfortunately, the other options are just more shiny this time.

[ ] You see if Ryan thinks any better of you, now that you've fought pirates together

Ryan, I kinda do wanna hang out with (not as much as Cam). Just not for those reasons.

[ ] See whether Owusu has any hard feelings toward your crew as a whole

This one is a matter of obligation since we owe Owusu big here. Because we asked him a favor to help us protect Kana, he was obligated to stay with the squad and save Kitty from her fuck-ups. Otherwise, you can bet that last update, he would've been in that hangar trying to save as many of his subordinates as he could.

[ ] Take Nazaret up on their book talk request

Because there were two moments in the past updates where we COULD'VE done this and we DIDN'T. I'm pushing hard for it this time

Now for the bonus one

[ ] Redeem yourself a little to your superiors by acting as a go-between with the captured pirates
[ ] Help keep the uneasy peace by coming to an "understanding" with Lieutenant North
[ ] Throw Yorke a bone by doing something for him, you can't piss your mechanic off all the time

I was more torn on this one generally because I don't know how "productive" I wanted Kana to be this time. Reading this again, I'm more okay now about the mechanic, but I still want to go pirate-on-pirate. I don't think it's time yet though to go chatting with Amani (god I hope this doesn't come back and bite us later)

Don't really care what our ship's leadership thinks of us as long as it's not "throw Kana out of an airlock", and we shouldn't have to go and patch things up with the mechanics every time they get irate at us for breaking our mech.

You have to use plan voting.
 
Consider the following: We helped give Kitty and Azara the push they needed to get together. By reaching out to North, we can help patch up the misunderstanding between her and Jay, and thus cement the trend of Kana meddling in other people's relationship problems while neglecting her own. :V

Just because North used to be the Protag doesn't mean we should make nice. But reminding the people in charge we are more than an okay mech pilot and a complete obnoxious shit seems like a good idea. Our mechanic doesn't seem like their going to be happy for a long time regardless so we should give them someone to vent at guilt free!
