Very interesting things happened yesterday. First of all, I was contacted by Iona in the late afternoon to meet her in the Newcastle system, near Planet Darlington to precise, as she wanted to "show me something". This something happened to be an Atmospheric entry point of this planet, leading to one of its upper atmosphere levels. What I saw there was too stunning to describe in full details, but it was a huge nomadic city, built right there in the planet's atmosphere, right there in controlled House space. I'm not sure how welcomed our presence was, as the BAF had already sent a Dunkirk down there, together with a built up Research Station. Seems the Bretonian Military has already known about this place long enough... Blackbox records and camera shots are in the attachments.
Later this evening, after meeting up with Troy, we got to know a person called "Fairchild". After some simple small talk, she began telling us more about her backstory under six eyes, which was in fact very interesting to learn about. To sum it up,
she claimed to be a scientist of Cryer, involved in a special project and in the creation of a special drug. Who wants to know more should read the whole log, as the person herself can explain better what's it all about than I can. At the end of the day,
my brain hurt anyways. Blackbox records in the attachments again
[16.04.2017 20:19:09] "Fairchild": What?
[16.04.2017 20:19:18] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Apologies.
[16.04.2017 20:19:21] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Hello, pilot.
[16.04.2017 20:20:03] "Fairchild": *sniffs* Accepted. But please be careful, this Scimitar is fragile as hell.
[16.04.2017 20:20:08] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: But ... why does it feel weird Troy? I mean, some time has passed already and all...
[16.04.2017 20:20:34] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Well... It's just weird. I can't forget things as easily as you do, I suppose.
[16.04.2017 20:21:37] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Hm. I hear a sound that's somewhat more common in Taus and Omicrons.
[16.04.2017 20:21:39] "Fairchild": Who are you 'Forlorn' lot anyway, out of sheer human curiousity?
[16.04.2017 20:22:03] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: I guess it's time to sum up things again.
[16.04.2017 20:22:12] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: You're the boss, so you explain.
[16.04.2017 20:22:29] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: I'll just enjoy being a lazy underling with no duties.
[16.04.2017 20:22:47] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: We're a private mercenary company, specialized in a few things, from escort work to military scale actions.
[16.04.2017 20:23:06] "Fairchild": "Private mercenary company". Aha.
[16.04.2017 20:23:10] "Fairchild": Well that didn't require that much explaining, did it.
[16.04.2017 20:23:11] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Yes.
[16.04.2017 20:23:21] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: So, you wanna know more huh?
[16.04.2017 20:23:28] "Fairchild": Well I don't know, I met some group of freelancers like that some time ago.
[16.04.2017 20:23:35] "Fairchild": 'Auxesia' they called themselves.
[16.04.2017 20:23:58] "Fairchild": Kinda sad they turned out to be non-human garbage of the worst sort.
[16.04.2017 20:24:02] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Except, our main strength is the beauty of our women. Not how crazy they could be.
[16.04.2017 20:24:07] "Fairchild": "Trans-humans" *spits*
[16.04.2017 20:24:20] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Many thanks, Troy. *She chuckles*
[16.04.2017 20:24:46] "Fairchild": Smooth.
[16.04.2017 20:24:55] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Though, they DO get pretty crazy sometime.
[16.04.2017 20:25:13] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Crazy is my second name. *She laughs*
[16.04.2017 20:25:17] 5th|LNS-Odyssey: James:Maytland!
[16.04.2017 20:25:25] 5th|LNS-Odyssey: James:Stop there for a second
[16.04.2017 20:25:31] "Fairchild": Where are you lot based off, anyway?
[16.04.2017 20:25:37] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Liberty.
[16.04.2017 20:25:43] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Obviously.
[16.04.2017 20:25:46] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: That's not a target...
[16.04.2017 20:25:52] "Fairchild": Quite specific, really.
[16.04.2017 20:26:10] Death: RNS-"Duelist" was put out of action by LNS:USS-ESS_ESS (Gun).
[16.04.2017 20:26:37] 5th|LNS-Odyssey: James:Maytland cut your engines!
[16.04.2017 20:27:19] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: I suppose we all have our own favored locations.
[16.04.2017 20:27:31] "Fairchild": I don't have one. I don't think so at least.
[16.04.2017 20:27:55] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: I like that new butique burger sho? in Trenton, for example.
[16.04.2017 20:28:29] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: And Elena likes to shop for shoes. A lot of them.
[16.04.2017 20:28:42] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: There's a lot of shoes to be bought on Manhattan.
[16.04.2017 20:28:47] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: *sigh*
[16.04.2017 20:28:51] "Fairchild": Sounds... vain. Extremely so.
[16.04.2017 20:29:16] Ypsylon.Lambda: So much peolpe/
[16.04.2017 20:29:19] Ypsylon.Lambda: Greetings
[16.04.2017 20:29:26] Forlorn|-Akuma.Kotegawa: Konnichiwa.
[16.04.2017 20:29:28] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: At least she didn't yet start to pirate people for designer clothes, like those girls in Kusari.
[16.04.2017 20:29:33] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Hello, Kotegawa.
[16.04.2017 20:29:47] "Fairchild": Eh, generous calling GC "girls".
[16.04.2017 20:30:01] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: They are not women?
[16.04.2017 20:30:12] "Fairchild": For some very broad definitions of "women" I suppose.
[16.04.2017 20:30:29] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Oh? Do they pack something extra? *raises an eyebrow*
[16.04.2017 20:30:43] "Fairchild": Tsk.
[16.04.2017 20:30:51] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Hey Akuma.
[16.04.2017 20:30:52] "Fairchild": Something extra orange, maybe.
[16.04.2017 20:30:54] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: What's your name, anyway?
[16.04.2017 20:30:59] Forlorn|-Akuma.Kotegawa: Hey Elena.
[16.04.2017 20:31:26] "Fairchild": Mine? Well, I've been calling myself Fairchild for a while now.
[16.04.2017 20:31:29] "Fairchild": Might as well stick.
[16.04.2017 20:31:41] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Don't wanna tell me your other name? Suit yourself.
[16.04.2017 20:31:49] "Fairchild": Which "other" name?
[16.04.2017 20:31:58] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: The one that's not Fairchild.
[16.04.2017 20:32:13] "Fairchild": There are two that aren't Fairchild. But no, not really.
[16.04.2017 20:32:20] "Fairchild": Besides, it's more complicated than that.
[16.04.2017 20:32:21] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Oh well.
[16.04.2017 20:32:24] "Fairchild": Fairchild is not one person.
[16.04.2017 20:33:19] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Are you carrying an invasive alien being within yourself?
[16.04.2017 20:33:29] "Fairchild": That's supposed to be an insult or something?
[16.04.2017 20:33:44] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: What am I supposed to understand from what you're suggesting?
[16.04.2017 20:33:57] "Fairchild": I've killed Nomads, Outcasts, GC and assorted orange menace for long enough to think about words like that as such.
[16.04.2017 20:34:24] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: And? I really don't care what you take it as. Though I speak literally, don't need to think too hard.
[16.04.2017 20:34:29] "Fairchild": Heh. Maybe what they say about the abyss and killing dragons is true.
[16.04.2017 20:34:31] "Fairchild": But no. You're wrong.
[16.04.2017 20:34:51] "Fairchild": It's been a... well, a favour for someone dear to my heart.
[16.04.2017 20:34:53] "Fairchild": Long story.
[16.04.2017 20:35:21] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: I have a lot of time, especially for interesting long stories.
[16.04.2017 20:35:31] "Fairchild": It might be the time, but it's definitely not the place.
[16.04.2017 20:35:40] "Fairchild": I would not like to blow my cover that quickly, especially considering there's Navy here.
[16.04.2017 20:35:50] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: And I have the freedom to move anywhere I wish.
[16.04.2017 20:36:05] "Fairchild": Pick a different place then.
[16.04.2017 20:36:24] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Not 10 clicks over the sun, maybe?
[16.04.2017 20:36:43] Death: Rediska was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[16.04.2017 20:36:46] "Fairchild": I don't know if I trust you enough to go 10K above the sun with you, if you catch my drift.
[16.04.2017 20:36:59] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Why, what could I do to you?
[16.04.2017 20:37:26] "Fairchild": I don't know. And unknown is something I don't really like.
[16.04.2017 20:37:36] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: You killed nomads, sniffers, and all kinds of assorted things. I bet you can handle me.
[16.04.2017 20:37:54] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: No comment.
[16.04.2017 20:38:05] "Fairchild": *chuckles* Fair enough. If you think of yourself so low.
[16.04.2017 20:38:08] 5th|LNS-Odyssey: Radio operator:Sir we just recieved orders from Admiral Sader.
[16.04.2017 20:38:09] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Well, you have been quite silent, Elena.
[16.04.2017 20:38:14] "Fairchild": See you there.
[16.04.2017 20:38:18] 5th|LNS-Odyssey: James:Send it to my screen.
[16.04.2017 20:38:19] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: I had an incoming message from Nick.
[16.04.2017 20:38:26] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Could my friends follow as well?
[16.04.2017 20:38:30] 5th|LNS-Odyssey: Radio operator:Aye!
[16.04.2017 20:38:37] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: They might be bored otherwise. If they want to come, that is.
[16.04.2017 20:38:48] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Sure, I'm good at listening to stuff.
[16.04.2017 20:38:53] 5th|LNS-Odyssey: *he looks down to his screen reading the orders*
[16.04.2017 20:38:57] 5th|LNS-Odyssey: James:Well then. Mike.
[16.04.2017 20:39:08] \Scuslem/: oh, wow! hello
[16.04.2017 20:39:08] 5th|Mike:Anderson: Aye sir?!
[16.04.2017 20:39:36] 5th|LNS-Odyssey: James:R&R is over. Grab a guardian and we are to head down to Planet Erie orbit where we will pick up Admiral Sader.
[16.04.2017 20:39:39] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: *takes a swig from a bottle
[16.04.2017 20:39:47] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Urgh... Don't tell the cops, please.
[16.04.2017 20:40:06] "Fairchild": Eh. Sure.
[16.04.2017 20:40:16] "Fairchild": Well, you wanted to know about me. What exactly?
[16.04.2017 20:40:16] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: *takes another swig*
[16.04.2017 20:40:34] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: You said you have an interesting story to tell. I like to listen to them.
[16.04.2017 20:40:49] "Fairchild": Well, as I said... I don't think I trust you enough to tell it all.
[16.04.2017 20:40:54] "Fairchild": But, I guess a bit of it might be in order.
[16.04.2017 20:41:00] "Fairchild": You ever heard of a company called Wisp Innovations?
[16.04.2017 20:41:08] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Don't worry, we're good at building up trust with others.
[16.04.2017 20:41:13] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Hm... Nope.
[16.04.2017 20:41:16] "Fairchild": Yeah, that's what I'm scared of.
[16.04.2017 20:41:17] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: It's kinda our business after all.
[16.04.2017 20:41:29] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: The only thing is ... we don't lie about trust.
[16.04.2017 20:41:44] "Fairchild": Well. *scratches her cheek* Wisp is a subsidiary of Cryer that I worked for.
[16.04.2017 20:41:52] "Fairchild": Well, it used to be. It no longer exists as far as I know.
[16.04.2017 20:42:05] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Ahh...
[16.04.2017 20:42:16] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Those stabiline producers... And baby pills.
[16.04.2017 20:42:22] "Fairchild": Yeah.
[16.04.2017 20:42:26] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: I should have gotten those damn baby pills, yes.
[16.04.2017 20:42:34] "Fairchild": But Wisp didn't deal in that. They made... more... powerful things.
[16.04.2017 20:42:59] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Like... weapons of mass destruction?
[16.04.2017 20:43:11] "Fairchild": No, gods, no.
[16.04.2017 20:43:17] "Fairchild": More advanced drugs.
[16.04.2017 20:43:18] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Troy ... always interested in that stuff. *She laughs*
[16.04.2017 20:43:21] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Well, I am tryna' think big.
[16.04.2017 20:43:48] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Hmm... Drugs.
[16.04.2017 20:43:52] "Fairchild": We've engineered something called Vergil. Cryer now calls it a recreational drug, but Vergil is something much, /much/ more.
[16.04.2017 20:44:02] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: A ... recreationial drug?
[16.04.2017 20:44:06] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: *She raises an eyebrow*
[16.04.2017 20:44:09] "Fairchild": Well, you see.
[16.04.2017 20:44:17] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: If it gets you high, they call it recreational, Elena.
[16.04.2017 20:44:29] "Fairchild": That's the thing. It doesn't get you high. Quite the opposite actually.
[16.04.2017 20:44:31] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: I'm Rheinlandian, don't blame on me.
[16.04.2017 20:44:53] "Fairchild": Some time ago, through some contacts in the Omicrons, we managed to find a species of alien bacteria.
[16.04.2017 20:45:04] "Fairchild": Turned out that this bacteria had some special properties.
[16.04.2017 20:45:09] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Ooh, alien bacteria ... always a dangerous thing.
[16.04.2017 20:45:25] "Fairchild": Not really dangerous. Useful as hell, though. Or so I was told.
[16.04.2017 20:45:40] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: If there's a chance for things to go things south, they always do.
[16.04.2017 20:45:57] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: So what happened with this drug of yours?
[16.04.2017 20:46:02] "Fairchild": Well, long story short. A professor at Wisp, and a good friend of mine, figured out that these bacteria-
[16.04.2017 20:46:17] "Fairchild": -could be paired with nanites to create something quite extraordinary.
[16.04.2017 20:46:26] "Fairchild": Specifically, an interface to the human brain.
[16.04.2017 20:46:54] "Fairchild": Wisp worked with some top scientists from Ageira to make this happen and it did, eventually.
[16.04.2017 20:46:59] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Wow... So I could mind control Elena, finally.
[16.04.2017 20:47:06] "Fairchild": Well, you see. No.
[16.04.2017 20:47:12] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: You always wanted that, didn't you?
[16.04.2017 20:47:20] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: My most secret desire.
[16.04.2017 20:47:22] "Fairchild": We've worked as hard as possible to make sure this doesn't happen. There were... casualties.
[16.04.2017 20:47:51] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: I see.
[16.04.2017 20:48:03] "Fairchild": But eventually, yes. We engieered a secure system which, essentially, allowed you to launch an instance of nexOS-
[16.04.2017 20:48:05] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Wouldn't you want to be one of those casualties, Troy?
[16.04.2017 20:48:07] "Fairchild": -literally in your head.
[16.04.2017 20:48:08] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: //me*
[16.04.2017 20:48:26] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Let me think... Nope... I'd not want to be one of those casualties.
[16.04.2017 20:48:43] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: You under my control ... man, a killing machine.
[16.04.2017 20:48:59] "Fairchild": You lot seriously have strange fantasies.
[16.04.2017 20:49:10] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Elena is a playful one, simply.
[16.04.2017 20:49:12] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Strange only when Troy is around.
[16.04.2017 20:49:33] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Don't mind her. She's teasing. She's in a very healthy relationship with another guy.
[16.04.2017 20:49:43] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: You got it. *She laughs*
[16.04.2017 20:50:32] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Well. Reviewing what you said, it's incredibly... well... scary.
[16.04.2017 20:50:41] "Fairchild": Depends how you spin it.
[16.04.2017 20:50:48] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: What happened to that thing?
[16.04.2017 20:51:03] "Fairchild": But soon after Vergil was released, some... problems started.
[16.04.2017 20:51:14] "Fairchild": But, well, before that.
[16.04.2017 20:51:27] "Fairchild": I was the first subject on which Vergil was tested fully.
[16.04.2017 20:51:32] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: So you literally released a drug?
[16.04.2017 20:51:55] "Fairchild": It's... well. It's available for consumers, yes.
[16.04.2017 20:52:01] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: So, uh... How does it feel?
[16.04.2017 20:52:14] "Fairchild": Could probably venture out into any Cryer-operated drug store and get it.
[16.04.2017 20:52:31] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Uhm ... alright.
[16.04.2017 20:52:33] "Fairchild": My experience is different, and from what I know it's different for everyone.
[16.04.2017 20:52:36] Death: Enma.Loyola. was put out of action by Actually.Chuba (Gun).
[16.04.2017 20:52:42] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: How was it for you then?
[16.04.2017 20:52:49] "Fairchild": The integration, while generally painless, is quite interesting though.
[16.04.2017 20:52:56] "Fairchild": It's... personal though, so I'd rather not talk about it.
[16.04.2017 20:53:07] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: *She nods* I see. That's alright.
[16.04.2017 20:53:14] "Fairchild": But, well.
[16.04.2017 20:53:27] "Fairchild": There was a problem in Wisp after Vergil was finished.
[16.04.2017 20:53:34] "Fairchild": Something Cryer called "corporate restructuring".
[16.04.2017 20:53:38] "Fairchild": Something I would call a "hostile takeover".
[16.04.2017 20:53:54] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Uhm... *She frowns* ... what the hell?
[16.04.2017 20:54:05] "Fairchild": Basically all of the assets of Wisp were bought out and seized by Cryer.
[16.04.2017 20:54:28] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Ah... Well... so you mean to say that there's a drug out there which installs an operating system in people's brains and which-
[16.04.2017 20:54:34] "Fairchild": The professor who led Vergil, Nikita Nagrebetskiy, was outright refused any rights to his research.
[16.04.2017 20:54:44] "Fairchild": So, well, he asked me for help.
[16.04.2017 20:54:46] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: in turn allow those people to be mind controlled or something?
[16.04.2017 20:54:52] "Fairchild": No, no, gods.
[16.04.2017 20:54:57] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: I am somewhat tipsy, sorry.
[16.04.2017 20:54:59] "Fairchild": Mind control is impossible. We made sure of that.
[16.04.2017 20:55:14] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Still sad about that, Troy?
[16.04.2017 20:55:18] "Fairchild": There always is a 'master override'.
[16.04.2017 20:55:34] "Fairchild": This is the reason why casualties happened.
[16.04.2017 20:55:54] "Fairchild": One, specifically, some expendable Outcast we found too close to Atrka.
[16.04.2017 20:55:58] "Fairchild": //Atka*
[16.04.2017 20:55:58] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: I am not sad. It's simply nice to be a drunk.
[16.04.2017 20:56:11] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: That's true though. Being drunk is funny.
[16.04.2017 20:56:24] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: I see.
[16.04.2017 20:56:38] "Fairchild": We had to investigate brain patterns for various negative emotions, like panic, terror, extreme fear, et cetera.
[16.04.2017 20:57:35] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Uh...
[16.04.2017 20:57:41] "Fairchild": It would require very deep, wetware programming to change these patterns. Not something anyone would be able to do.
[16.04.2017 20:57:43] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: That's not so ethical, is it?
[16.04.2017 20:57:53] "Fairchild": Well, depends who you ask.
[16.04.2017 20:57:57] "Fairchild": Of course, it violates human rights.
[16.04.2017 20:58:02] "Fairchild": Such experimentation that is.
[16.04.2017 20:58:22] "Fairchild": But Outcasts aren't humans. At least they aren't for Cryer.
[16.04.2017 20:58:28] "Fairchild": They aren't for me either.
[16.04.2017 20:58:52] "Fairchild": Nobody who voluntarily puts themselves under the influence of Cardamine is human.
[16.04.2017 20:58:58] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: I have a soft spot for animals as well. But uh... I guess such happened anyway, no need to argue about it now.
[16.04.2017 20:59:14] "Fairchild": Well.
[16.04.2017 20:59:16] "Fairchild": Regardles.
[16.04.2017 20:59:26] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: So, what would happen if I decided to go to a pharmacy now, and swallowed some of those drugs?
[16.04.2017 20:59:34] "Fairchild": I couldn't tell you.
[16.04.2017 20:59:39] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: In fact, I just might. Because you won't tell me.
[16.04.2017 20:59:49] "Fairchild": Neither me, nor Nagrebetskiy knows what they changed.
[16.04.2017 20:59:55] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: I wouldn't risk that to be honest.
[16.04.2017 21:00:10] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: You don't want me to be your personal toy of destruction?
[16.04.2017 21:00:22] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: I'd rather like to see you safe.
[16.04.2017 21:00:24] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Also, wow. Am I just a killer toy for you, Elena?
[16.04.2017 21:00:30] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: And not on a complete killing spree.
[16.04.2017 21:00:37] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Oh, for a second, I thought you thought weird things about me.
[16.04.2017 21:00:40] "Fairchild": They may have removed our overrides. Who knows.
[16.04.2017 21:00:48] "Fairchild": Maybe Cryer is indeed planning mind control on a massive scale.
[16.04.2017 21:00:51] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: No I wouldn't ever.
[16.04.2017 21:01:10] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: I wonder what else you're not telling me, Fairchild. Because this info is massive.
[16.04.2017 21:01:17] "Fairchild": Well.
[16.04.2017 21:01:22] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: And you told me that you'd not tell me everything, before.
[16.04.2017 21:01:37] "Fairchild": We still have the original code for Vergil.
[16.04.2017 21:01:59] "Fairchild": And the nano-replicator recipes for the nanobots.
[16.04.2017 21:02:25] "Fairchild": We don't have any of the bacteria, but that requires just an expedition to the Omicrons with appropriate equipment.
[16.04.2017 21:02:33] "Fairchild": And, of course, an AR lab to produce the clean version of Vergil.
[16.04.2017 21:02:40] "Fairchild": That's what we want to do, in a nutshell..
[16.04.2017 21:02:51] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: "You"?
[16.04.2017 21:03:02] "Fairchild": Oh. I haven't told you something, yeah.
[16.04.2017 21:03:11] "Fairchild": Nagrebetskiy, the professor who made Vergil, right?
[16.04.2017 21:03:16] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Right.
[16.04.2017 21:03:23] "Fairchild": He... Well, he became ill. After all, he was an old man.
[16.04.2017 21:03:57] "Fairchild": But thanks to Vergil, he undergone a quite dangerous operation, he called it 'Brain-in-a-jar'.
[16.04.2017 21:04:16] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Uhm ... I guess I can imagine what happened.
[16.04.2017 21:04:16] "Fairchild": Do... Well, do I have to tell you what that might have been or is your imagination good enough to envision that yourself?
[16.04.2017 21:04:32] "Fairchild": Yeah. And, thanks to Vergil, we are now... well... connected.
[16.04.2017 21:04:33] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: But that's just ... oh well, weird I guess.
[16.04.2017 21:04:45] "Fairchild": He sees with my eyes, hears with my ears, feels with my skin.
[16.04.2017 21:04:46] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: You are ... -connected-?!
[16.04.2017 21:04:51] "Fairchild": This is why I said, Fairchild is not one person.
[16.04.2017 21:04:55] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: My god.
[16.04.2017 21:05:06] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Uh... I suppose it would feel very weird to the old man if you ever had a lover.
[16.04.2017 21:05:24] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: *She sighs*
[16.04.2017 21:05:24] "Fairchild": I couldn't know, we don't share memories.
[16.04.2017 21:05:44] "Fairchild": You see, once you start Vergil for the first time, your memories are kind of separated.
[16.04.2017 21:05:45] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: It's like a switch? He can just become you, at times, or something?
[16.04.2017 21:06:07] "Fairchild": You obviously keep your human brain as normal, but what you see and hear goes into Q-coherence storage.
[16.04.2017 21:06:19] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: So is it like a nomad incubus or something ... can he take control over you at times?
[16.04.2017 21:06:21] "Fairchild": Your thoughts, if you so desire, as well.
[16.04.2017 21:06:23] "Fairchild": No, of course not.
[16.04.2017 21:06:28] "Fairchild": Only if I agree.
[16.04.2017 21:06:34] "Fairchild": It's /my/ body after all.
[16.04.2017 21:06:40] "Fairchild": But there are certain implications of this.
[16.04.2017 21:06:46] "Fairchild": Indeed, I was the one who performed the surgery on his brain.
[16.04.2017 21:06:52] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: That's actually ... woah. Mind blowing
[16.04.2017 21:06:56] "Fairchild": Having /absoultely no idea/ about neurobiology.
[16.04.2017 21:07:04] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: *She laughs*
[16.04.2017 21:07:11] Death: saxz was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[16.04.2017 21:07:13] "Fairchild": Imagine that./
[16.04.2017 21:07:32] "Fairchild": Well, bloody hell. I've said a lot more than I meant to.
[16.04.2017 21:07:43] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Yeah, I have such an effect on people.
[16.04.2017 21:07:45] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Yes ... yes you did. *She sighs* And my brain hurts now.
[16.04.2017 21:07:56] "Fairchild": But now that I've told you this.
[16.04.2017 21:08:02] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: But it is quite interesting, ma'am. I am glad I heard it all.
[16.04.2017 21:08:13] "Fairchild": I guess I'd have to join up with you, eh?
[16.04.2017 21:08:18] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Uhh..
[16.04.2017 21:08:21] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Oh why, do you think so?
[16.04.2017 21:08:28] "Fairchild": Well, you can help me out with my mission.
[16.04.2017 21:08:34] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: That's up to the bosses, I suppose.
[16.04.2017 21:08:43] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Oh, and what's your mission again exactly?
[16.04.2017 21:08:57] "Fairchild": Provide the 'clean', early version of Vergil, open-source to anyone who desires.
[16.04.2017 21:09:17] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: To be honest, this Vergil sounds really troublesome to me.
[16.04.2017 21:09:26] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: We're not exactly ... the people to produce drugs, so I wonder why you think we could even help you?
[16.04.2017 21:09:41] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: It sounds like a revolutionary, yet still dangerous idea
[16.04.2017 21:09:46] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Like, sure, it certainly does SOMETHING to your brain. Which surely /won't/ allow you to be mind controlled. But what-
[16.04.2017 21:09:50] "Fairchild": You're mercenaries and freelancers.. You've got contacts, probably.
[16.04.2017 21:09:57] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: advantages does it bring to a person, you never tell me.
[16.04.2017 21:10:03] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Or provide, that is.
[16.04.2017 21:10:14] "Fairchild": *sighs* You ever used a computer. Or a console, or a PAD or anything like that?
[16.04.2017 21:10:25] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Yes we did.
[16.04.2017 21:10:35] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Oh yes, why don't you tell me that? I was expecting that explanation from the start.
[16.04.2017 21:10:43] "Fairchild": Imagine skipping the entire "chair, keyboard, monitor" process.
[16.04.2017 21:10:51] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Oh wait.
[16.04.2017 21:10:57] "Fairchild": Vergil is an /interface/. It uses your brain to communicate with the console.
[16.04.2017 21:10:58] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: *She raises both eyebrows in awe*
[16.04.2017 21:11:14] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: That's ... *she whistles* ... something!
[16.04.2017 21:11:40] "Fairchild": There are many ways to do this.
[16.04.2017 21:12:05] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: You know what, I'll make sure to talk about this with the other leaders.
[16.04.2017 21:12:07] "Fairchild": I, for example, have a subdermal chip implanted somewhere, uh... Here.
[16.04.2017 21:12:11] "Fairchild": *she points to her neck*'
[16.04.2017 21:12:27] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Cause, if I hear right, this actually could become a great and enduring business.
[16.04.2017 21:12:28] "Fairchild": That chip is basically a low-end quantum console which I can use through Vergil.
[16.04.2017 21:12:40] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: thats actually really no bad RP
[16.04.2017 21:12:44] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: oh?
[16.04.2017 21:12:46] "Fairchild": Well. The code you aren't going to get for yourselves.
[16.04.2017 21:12:49] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: We'll definitely go for it
[16.04.2017 21:12:54] "Fairchild": The code is for everyone.
[16.04.2017 21:12:59] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Of course.
[16.04.2017 21:13:01] "Fairchild": But, if you get a head start on pumping out
[16.04.2017 21:13:21] "Fairchild": -clean Vergil nodes and cores, then you might get a lot of clientelle.
[16.04.2017 21:13:22] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: So, my blackbox is recording that conversation anyways. I'll make sure the others gonna see it too.
[16.04.2017 21:13:35] "Fairchild": My eyes are recording as well. Don't worry.
[16.04.2017 21:13:44] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: *She whistles again in surprise*
[16.04.2017 21:13:45] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: I am fine with her joining us. The more the merrier, huh?
[16.04.2017 21:13:45] "Fairchild": We both have ways to blackmail each other I guess.
[16.04.2017 21:13:59] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Oh, she doesn't necessarilly have to join us.
[16.04.2017 21:14:02] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: But, it's up to these three, very choosy, Knight Captains of ours.
[16.04.2017 21:14:05] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Cooperation would be just as fine.
[16.04.2017 21:14:10] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: But we'll see.
[16.04.2017 21:14:18] "Fairchild": *sniffs* Quite a name, "Knight Captain".
[16.04.2017 21:14:25] "Fairchild": Reminds me of the Core. *she chuckles*
[16.04.2017 21:14:26] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: We're not as choosy as Troy thinks we are though.
[16.04.2017 21:14:36] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: We're anything but the Core, ma'am.
[16.04.2017 21:14:36] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Very, very fancy, these show ponies are, I tell you.
[16.04.2017 21:14:52] "Fairchild": Good, because Core is a bunch of incompetent idiots.
[16.04.2017 21:15:10] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: We are neither incompetent nor idiots.
[16.04.2017 21:15:17] "Fairchild": I figured.
[16.04.2017 21:15:24] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Though I guess we all have our "phases" at times, at least that's the case with me.
[16.04.2017 21:15:26] "Fairchild": Else I wouldn't have told you my story, eh?
[16.04.2017 21:15:34] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Not sure about my competence, but I sure want to be flashy.
[16.04.2017 21:15:42] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: You're competent, Troy.
[16.04.2017 21:15:48] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Don't doubt that. *She laughs*
[16.04.2017 21:15:50] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Oh, you're making me blush.
[16.04.2017 21:15:57] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Didn't intend to.
[16.04.2017 21:16:25] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Anyways, I must thank you for the information you gave us, they all sound very interesting to me.
[16.04.2017 21:16:47] "Fairchild": Don't mention it.
[16.04.2017 21:16:51] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: If only you could give us your comm details, so we can message you directly over a private channel?
[16.04.2017 21:17:06] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: We're good at keeping secret stuff secret, ma'am.
[16.04.2017 21:17:10] "Fairchild": Sure. *sends the communication codes*
[16.04.2017 21:17:17] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Very well.
[16.04.2017 21:17:41] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: I swear, Elena, you really are not that good at keeping secret things secret.
[16.04.2017 21:17:52] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Do you know what I heard from this Mary Dross, person?
[16.04.2017 21:17:52] Death: CNS-Affondatore suffered a self-inflicted catastrophic decompression.
[16.04.2017 21:17:56] "Fairchild": I would watch out if I were you, with sharing this information.
[16.04.2017 21:18:10] "Fairchild": Pick the people you share this with carefully, you're in possession of Cryer's trade secret now.
[16.04.2017 21:18:14] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Uhm, what?
[16.04.2017 21:18:31] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Nevermind. I have no idea how she knew that.
[16.04.2017 21:18:50] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: *She sighs* Starting with stuff but not ending it. Typical.
[16.04.2017 21:18:56] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: And, pilot, I'll keep my mouth shut, don't worry.
[16.04.2017 21:19:11] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: I will so as well.
[16.04.2017 21:19:34] "Fairchild": Fair enough. *salutes* Catch me on the Net if you wish to help out.
[16.04.2017 21:19:39] "Fairchild": There's probably cash in it too.
[16.04.2017 21:19:41] "Fairchild": Farewell, for now.
[16.04.2017 21:19:49] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: We'll sure do.
[16.04.2017 21:19:50] Forlorn|-Troy.Augustin: Have a safe flight.
[16.04.2017 21:19:56] Forlorn|-Elena.Voigt: Farewell to you as well, See ya around.
