Ardent was the one who wanted to be there in the first place. Gavia was just trying to retrieve Ardent and go home.

Kugai:
There is that.

But it seems to me that now that several days/weeks have passed and Gavia has SITLL got no response, the idea that they may be there for a seriously long time, maybe forever, has not truly sunk in for her.

FunkyTuba:
I wonder if Gavia's nanotech is self-renewable or if it has some kind of lifetime that can sunset

Zebediah:
Hm... Self-replicating nanotech has all sorts of potential problems. There are ways around that - Gavia may have an artificial organ that produces her nanotech in the way that bone marrow produces blood cells, for example.

But still, the energy to power the nanotech has to come from somewhere. And floating around all the time has to require a huge energy budget. Either Gavia eats a whole lot, or her nanotech is more efficient at deriving chemical energy from food than a normal human digestive tract, or she's getting her energy from somewhere else. Or she's been running on battery power and is about to crash, hard.
