I don't have a terminal preference either, so if we can make the Ruins work out I'm a-okay with that. And we can always take some extra time to set up the four-person thread at the terminal and just start with the buddy threads, if we need to!

Thinking about it, we could always see if the other folks are cool with the idea of this group technically getting to the Ruins first, but having to abandon the terminal and end up somewhere else in the area as a consequence of dealing with The Spice and such. Getting unwittingly teleported directly from Aldrip does give us that option, at least.
