I lived! Holy shit I survived, I was not expecting this.
Before I started I made sure every part of my body was covered and protected (safety first!)
Hydrazine is extremely toxic. You breathe too much of it and boom you get lung problems. You accidentally splash some on your skin and you'll have nasty chemical burns for the rest of your life. Now you see why I wasn't taking any chances with this shit.
I turned the valve until I had a tiny trickle of hydrazine, it dripped into the bowl I had set up and sizzled before disappearing. Wow how exciting! This is what I wanted though because I just freed hydrogen and nitrogen.
I have an abundance supply of bags and duct tape. Duct tape is like magic, it fixes everything. I cut some bags up and taped them together to create a small tent to cover up my little lab.
Next I had to sacrifice another hose to my survival plan. It's honestly a great thing Fiddleford isn't here. I cut a hole in the bag tent and duct taped the hose in before using some more thread to hang the other end of the hose up back in the main tent. I just made a chimney, take notes people you never know when you might have to do this one day.
The hard part will be creating fire. I purposely banned fire from this trip because Fiddleford and I are a complete mess and we will end up burning something down by accident (there's a hidden room in the shack to prove this).
Thankfully, there are wooden crates outside.
I'm pretty sure I can find batteries and wires to create a spark but a spark isn't enough to ignite wood. Wow I've never been so happy to be surrounded by these awesome Martian trees! I just gathered up some bark and rubbed two sticks together creating enough friction.
I'm joking. If you think there are trees on Mars please go back and retake a science class because you obviously need it.
I did something way cooler, I vented pure oxygen at the wood and bam! It lit up like a fucking match. With my pieces of burning wood in hand I returned to my chimney and started a slow hydrazine flow. Soon I had bursts of flames sputtering through my little chimney.
Great news, the process worked!
Each tank holds enough hydrazine to make 100 liters of water. I'm limited with my oxygen production so I'll have to stop halfway through the tank. Though I'll have 50 liters of water by that time. I'm so excited for this!

It took all night but the job is done.
I could have finished everything faster but I figured that if I wanted to live I should proceed with caution.
The main tent now feels like a jungle. It's about 30 degrees Celsius in here right now and fucking humid. This is to be expected considering I dumped 50 liters of water into the air along with a shit ton of heat.
Not sure if I mentioned it or not but I vandalized an extra suit I had found. It's now holding the water that the original container I had for water can't hold. So all day I've been carrying buckets of water to fill up some high tech suit. I shouldn't be complaining since this is great news! I'm actually making water! I have a major chance of surviving.
I'm so tired right now. I don't even know how I can legibly write. You all can actually understand what I'm writing, right?
I don't care, I'm going to bed. Hey at least I'll go to sleep the happiest I've been since being stranded here.
