Lending equipment to people aboard is a current proposal that the owner has tentatively kept. Some people need the one thing you fight with. Dorn has built a receiver that can listen to a single pressure panel deep in the station, but it needs a splitter — the same kind of part sitting in your weapon rig. Yeva has rebuilt a packing bench that can pack canisters with more usable air than an ordinary refill, and it needs the same part.

Lending it is a real trade. Seat the splitter in Dorn's receiver and you get one pressure reading from the panel behind his seal. It drifts and then settles back, which is not what he expected — and he says at once that a failing sensor would look exactly the same from here. The reading proves nothing about the section or whether it is safe. It is a very good reason to go and inspect that panel yourself. Move the splitter to the bench and the canisters you pack there carry more usable air out with you. Take it back before you leave and you keep both results — the reading you heard and the canisters you packed — with your rig whole again. Leave it seated and the bench keeps working, but that part is not in your rig on this trip.

The same part can serve both projects before you reclaim it for departure. Seat the splitter in Dorn's receiver and you get one pressure reading from the panel behind his seal.

The cost is time aboard and, if you choose, a part you do not carry. The payoff is a concrete change: better air in the canister you are about to rely on, or a reason to go and look at one specific panel.

Using both projects and reclaiming the part costs time aboard; you retain both the packed air and the pressure reading. If you leave the part seated, it stays aboard and is unavailable in your rig for that trip.
