That was weird behavior from him. oO Isn’t he into that Henri fellow? Oo oO That’s what our spreadsheet says, but didn’t someone say Henri’s a hologram? Oo Jania decided to file it for further investigation. @Jania Nis has a spreadsheet because there is so much gossip on our ship 2 3 Quote
Jania Nis Posted January 22 Posted January 22 Quote Overwhelming grief hit him like the biggest monetary loss he could possibly make. The first time I start to feel bad for a Zet and he comes out expressing his grief like this lol lovely cultural detail there 1 1 3 Quote
+ Sevantha Posted January 22 Posted January 22 Woke up to an absolutely lovely sim from @Arturo Maxwell taking in the suffering of the Danni people, quoting some of the lines that really just struck me that shows the depth of his compassion, empathy, and resolve to help people he just met. Quote If this utter devastation wasn't the worst, where children looking as young as three or four were having to help shift rubbish and debris, or try to drag tiny little carts along, then Max truly felt for those in other areas. A short ways ahead, Max could see a row of bodies carefully laid out. Some looked as if they were simply enjoying a peaceful nap, others bore clear signs of injury from building collapses or impact-injuries from being swept away. Not all of them were adults, and all shared in the final indignity that the survivors didn't even have any rags to cover them over with. Max stared at the row for a long moment, mulling over the unfairness of it all. And Quote Maxwell: How about we give those folks a wee bit ae dignity? Kilik/Herrick/Richards/Tano/Salo: Response Max took up one of the blankets and stepped over to the first in line. Nothing seemed out of place, unless one looked closely to find the livid purple mark just inside the hairline by her temple. Max looked at her peaceful face for a moment, judging her to be around eleven. Not much younger than Milly. He heard footsteps behind him. Kilik: Her name was Alena. She was my daughter. Undoing the blanket, Max carefully draped it over Alena before standing and placing a hand upon Kilik's shoulder. Maxwell: I'm sorry, Kilik. 3 1 2 Quote

Alora DeVeau Posted February 1 Author Posted February 1 Quote Promontory: (to the prince) Let me level-set: we believe in community and doing good, et cetera, but we also believe in non-interference. You say the Danni have requested Zet rule, and they have a ruler now. (he held up his hands anticipating the objection) Even if that ruler might be illegitimate, we don’t believe in coming in and eliminating a ruler we don’t like in favor of a friendly one. Such an action would be anathema to everything the Federation stands for. Oh crap, was he giving an inspiring monologue? Ug. He had been a command officer for too long. You're in too deep. You're stuck now. 1 Quote
Alora DeVeau Posted February 1 Author Posted February 1 Quote Avander was still disinclined to escalate to a battle but 1) the Zet didn’t know that and 2) he was starting to get frustrated enough that he kinda wanted to blow something up. Uh oh. 2 Quote

Lhandon_Nilsen Posted February 2 Posted February 2 "@Josh Herrick It seemed like they’d been dealt a hand of bad choices; interfering in geopolitics seemed to be best left to diplomats. An image of Nilsen popping in his mind almost made him chuckle aloud given how brash the man had been in some of their meetings. But maybe this would be the proving ground for if he deserved to be on the command track." Meanwhile Nilsen be like: 1 Quote
Lhandon_Nilsen Posted February 3 Posted February 3 Quote oO Oh Good, this is why we have a captain… nope, captain is a prisoner… ok… so we have this brand new Diplomatic Officer… nope they’re missing… Ok, so there’s the second officers?… Nope he’d relegated to dealing with the intruder, saboteur, dead king’s son… Ok, so they’re leaving this up to the guy who kinda found a loop hole around taking diplomacy 101 at the academy…Oo This thought from @Toxin Arlill is the current state of the mission Captain: Captured! First Officer: Barley holding the ship together. Second Officer: Captured! Diplomatic Officer: Missing and has a five star wanted level. Whose now leading negotiations?: The Operations Chief! 2 Quote

Alora DeVeau Posted February 4 Author Posted February 4 Quote Of course they did, what did the Zet not do. Jack had heard of the different Zet but he had not actually seen or encountered one that could fly on their own. oO If only we had an ACME Flyswatter with us. Oo On sale today! 1 Quote
Lhandon_Nilsen Posted February 8 Posted February 8 (edited) Quote For someone who was shorter than him, Promontory projected some very tall energy. Maybe it was the hair. Caras knew in that moment why Promontory was in command. Yes @Morro Caras is absolutely right, it's the hair. It's @Avander Promontory 's superpower. Edited February 8 by Lhandon_Nilsen 2 Quote
