Does it grow alongside a tribe's numbers?

In a manner, yes. We can choose to change the ship in different ways, depending on whether people enjoy watching us. Some of them do change the ship's size, although not always in the same way.

[Bitterness and doubt are more than justified, in Shirley's book.]

I wouldn't say any of this is deserved...but there are some things that make our situation more bearable.

I hope company will be among those things.

Of course. I'd hate to be on this ship alone. And there are other ships with more people, too, for better or for worse.
