Oh my god... What... What happened yesterday? I'm still having a headache... I can't quite wrap my head around it, was it a dream? Or a reality? I... I don't know... The impression was like it happened in reality... I... I-I-I've met with Azhi and there was a Nomad Node which didn't shot me for some reason. It... talked to me. It... Showed me something?
Code:
[12.08.2018 20:09:58] Cloaking device off
[12.08.2018 20:10:14] Nyctophilia: Thought they were bigger.
[12.08.2018 20:10:41] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Odd. If I didn't know better, I'd say you were following me, dear.
[12.08.2018 20:10:50] Nyctophilia: Why?
[12.08.2018 20:11:15] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: It's just a very odd coincidence, in such a large universe. And knowing your propensities, oh dear.
[12.08.2018 20:11:17] Nyctophilia: Wow, easy there.
[12.08.2018 20:11:57] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Don't fear and you won't be feared. Don't hate and you won't be hated.
[12.08.2018 20:12:07] Nyctophilia: Is this... thing going do attack me any second now?
[12.08.2018 20:12:18] Nyctophilia: I don't have any reasons to hate it... Until it hates me.
[12.08.2018 20:12:29] Vagrant.Melia: "Such haste to conclusion. Typical."
[12.08.2018 20:12:37] Nyctophilia: But... This scale makes me a bit nervous.
[12.08.2018 20:13:37] Nyctophilia: I'd prefer to keep distance. What if it bites?
[12.08.2018 20:13:46] Nyctophilia: I am certain that it does.
[12.08.2018 20:13:56] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Look beyond the first impressions, free of prejudice. Maybe you'll see something you like.
[12.08.2018 20:15:13] Nyctophilia: Well... Can't say for certain. If I'd knew that this thing wouldn't hurt me for certain, I'd feel quite comfortable.
[12.08.2018 20:15:24] Nyctophilia: But... I don't know it.
[12.08.2018 20:15:27] Nyctophilia: Can't trust it.
[12.08.2018 20:15:48] Nyctophilia: Not right away.
[12.08.2018 20:16:03] Vagrant.Melia: "Query. Is presumption all the dark one is capable of?"
[12.08.2018 20:16:39] Nyctophilia: Curious why you don't attack me right away.
[12.08.2018 20:17:15] Nyctophilia: Generaly everyone of your kind I've met thus far were extremely agressive.
[12.08.2018 20:17:15] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Curious why you presumed you should be attacked straight away? Who put -that- thought in your head?
[12.08.2018 20:17:29] Nyctophilia: None did. My experience.
[12.08.2018 20:18:17] Nyctophilia: You go in Omicrons, and as far as you enjoy the nice view, you also anticipate a threat.
[12.08.2018 20:19:03] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: You put a hand in the mouth of a shark; you should anticipate it getting bitten off.
[12.08.2018 20:19:10] Nyctophilia: Yep.
[12.08.2018 20:20:02] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: There's a reason for everything. Fear too, sometimes is justified. But sometimes, it's not.
[12.08.2018 20:20:33] Nyctophilia: Yeah, but I'm not just afraid of this thing, Rather concerned about it.
[12.08.2018 20:21:19] Nyctophilia: And it's justified.
[12.08.2018 20:21:57] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: So you say. But the fact you have not yet left suggests there is much more beneath that ugly layer of fear and doubt.
[12.08.2018 20:21:59] Nyctophilia: Like, I don't know whom you have do be if you didn't saw them assaulting multiple ships.
[12.08.2018 20:22:26] Nyctophilia: Yeah. Beneath that lies a bit of curiosity. And it also scares me.
[12.08.2018 20:22:57] Vagrant.Melia: "Perhaps it is merely afraid of that which it does not know."
[12.08.2018 20:23:59] Nyctophilia: The strongest and oldest emotion of the mankind is fear. And the strongest and oldest kind of fear is the fear of the unknown.
[12.08.2018 20:24:18] Nyctophilia: Do I love this quote.
[12.08.2018 20:24:34] Vagrant.Melia: "Amusement."
[12.08.2018 20:24:35] Nyctophilia: Some overcome this fear and transform it into curiosity.
[12.08.2018 20:24:58] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: And do you seek to transform it?
[12.08.2018 20:25:07] Nyctophilia: In some situations.
[12.08.2018 20:25:45] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Well that's hardly appropriate. You can't just have half of a transformation and call it a day.
[12.08.2018 20:26:08] Vagrant.Melia: "If we had sought to purge, we would not have sought toleration."
[12.08.2018 20:27:07] Nyctophilia: It's situational, afterall.
[12.08.2018 20:28:12] Nyctophilia: However... I find a mixed feeling of feer and curiosity in this thing, and it confuses me.
[12.08.2018 20:28:53] Nyctophilia: Who are they and most importantly - why?
[12.08.2018 20:29:43] Nyctophilia: This is what curious to me and at the same time, the possible answers to these questions make me afraid of them.
[12.08.2018 20:30:05] Nyctophilia: And at some point I stop guessing.
[12.08.2018 20:30:10] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: They are what they are. Mankind has fear of dark. They have love of light. Mankind has discord. They have harmony.
[12.08.2018 20:30:36] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Answers lead only to more questions. If you truly want to know; Then you'll have to wonder for all time.
[12.08.2018 20:30:56] Nyctophilia: True.
[12.08.2018 20:32:00] Nyctophilia: And there is still one question. There are ones that attack us blindly. And this one... Is just observing me.
[12.08.2018 20:32:26] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: You say blindly. I say with great foresight.
[12.08.2018 20:32:41] Vagrant.Melia: "Transgression meets punishment."
[12.08.2018 20:33:19] Nyctophilia: So... They have a reason?
[12.08.2018 20:33:36] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Everything does. Except the few things that don't.
[12.08.2018 20:35:56] Nyctophilia: You said that they're fighting against the dark?
[12.08.2018 20:36:12] Nyctophilia: How come they see us as the dark?
[12.08.2018 20:36:47] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: What is that behind your eyes? Where you supposedly reside? It looks very black and colorless even though you can't see it.
[12.08.2018 20:37:14] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Darkness and unknowing of the self. They have only the Light, and full understanding of the self.
[12.08.2018 20:37:44] Vagrant.Melia: "Not only of self. Of kin, of bretheren."
[12.08.2018 20:38:24] Nyctophilia: So they are basically fighting the chaos?
[12.08.2018 20:38:50] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Light can only banish darkness with its presence. Order can only overcome chaos. It is what it is.
[12.08.2018 20:38:59] Nyctophilia: An irony.
[12.08.2018 20:39:18] Nyctophilia: Think you are aware what "Nyctophilia" means.
[12.08.2018 20:39:34] Nyctophilia: Though I can't find myself matching any of this.
[12.08.2018 20:40:02] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Names are pointless to them. Actions and intent speak more loudly.
[12.08.2018 20:41:37] Nyctophilia: Even if I'm just a freak that loves hiding in the dark and stalking on people?
[12.08.2018 20:42:42] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: [chuckles] The Light isn't a literal flashlight shining in your face, dear. This is where language fails us.
[12.08.2018 20:42:56] Nyctophilia: Figures.
[12.08.2018 20:43:30] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: But understanding can still be conveyed, even in its absence. If you are open to it.
[12.08.2018 20:44:06] Nyctophilia: One thing I'm also concerned about. It's not communicating not through the comms, but what I may understand as telepathy.
[12.08.2018 20:44:12] Nyctophilia: Can it hijack my brain?
[12.08.2018 20:44:16] Vagrant.Melia: "Does it seek to know, or is it content with its frail understanding?"
[12.08.2018 20:44:49] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Are you so sure it is your own as it is? Be rid of that fear, what you are about to see can only liberate you.
[12.08.2018 20:45:19] Nyctophilia: I am... Not sure that I am afraid, rather concerned.
[12.08.2018 20:46:00] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: [laughs] Hiding fear by giving another name? Pointless. Face it and reject it, and you will have understanding.
[12.08.2018 20:46:24] Nyctophilia: I mean, you have to understand me, I've never met this thing that close and to not get shot at.
[12.08.2018 20:46:46] Nyctophilia: And this is the first time I hear it's voice.
[12.08.2018 20:46:52] Nyctophilia: Heard, even.
[12.08.2018 20:47:26] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: First time, last time, they are one and the same. What is important is that its happening. An opportunity is presented to: you.
[12.08.2018 20:47:34] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: It may not be presented again.
[12.08.2018 20:48:09] Nyctophilia: Yeah, I am certainly amazed.
[12.08.2018 20:49:11] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Had its intent been hostile, it would have asked for no premission. Yet there it stands in front of you, ready to provide as soon as you say the word.
[12.08.2018 20:49:14] Nyctophilia: What... is it trying to do?
[12.08.2018 20:49:30] Nyctophilia: To do what?
[12.08.2018 20:49:40] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Convey meaning. Offer knowledge. Show the path to liberation.
[12.08.2018 20:50:22] Nyctophilia: I am... Not certain. Can it show me itself?
[12.08.2018 20:50:32] Nyctophilia: Like... I don't know what it is.
[12.08.2018 20:50:45] Nyctophilia: Or who it is.
[12.08.2018 20:50:58] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: -That- is exactly what I mean.
[12.08.2018 20:51:15] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: You can get no more from me. Only from the Light.
[12.08.2018 20:51:56] Nyctophilia: It's a bit... Uncomfortable, I never asked anything from an alien lifeform, but...
[12.08.2018 20:52:01] Nyctophilia: Can you show me yourself?
[12.08.2018 20:52:06] Nyctophilia: Please?
[12.08.2018 20:53:17] Nyctophilia: Uhm...
[12.08.2018 20:53:59] Nyctophilia: Did I asked anything wrong?
[12.08.2018 20:54:06] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Patience.
[12.08.2018 20:54:10] Vagrant.Melia: "The Shallow Void is a void of movement. It is not wise to remain in such a vulnerable position, for such an act."
[12.08.2018 20:56:07] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Will you accompany us to a safer spot?
[12.08.2018 20:56:13] Nyctophilia: Of course.
[12.08.2018 20:56:26] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Forward.
*The moment we've encountered a stationary Osiris monitoring a Jump Hole in Omicron Beta*
[12.08.2018 21:03:26] Nyctophilia: Typical.
[12.08.2018 21:03:35] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: [chuckles]
[12.08.2018 21:03:50] Nyctophilia: The Order monitoring every corner in the Omicrons.
[12.08.2018 21:04:27] Vagrant.Melia: "We will be rid of the Banishers. We only need to proceed past them."
[12.08.2018 21:04:27] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: They've always been the controlling sort. What little good it did them.
[12.08.2018 21:10:56] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: We are almost there.
[12.08.2018 21:11:05] Nyctophilia: Oh?
[12.08.2018 21:11:19] Nyctophilia: We're in Minor. I have only several guesses.
[12.08.2018 21:11:31] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Yes. Few frequent these graveyards, we will be safe here.
[12.08.2018 21:12:16] Nyctophilia: Can't call it safe... Both the Core and the Order might catch us here.
[12.08.2018 21:12:37] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: The mists hide many things. They will hide us, as well.
[12.08.2018 21:12:47] Nyctophilia: Hm.
[12.08.2018 21:13:09] Vagrant.Melia: "Their interference would be their end."
[12.08.2018 21:13:22] Nyctophilia: And this should be a local relic, Battleship Isis?
[12.08.2018 21:13:43] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: A very evocative image, don't you think?
[12.08.2018 21:14:13] Nyctophilia: Yeah. Wasn't here when the assault happened, but heard that all of the sides were involved.
[12.08.2018 21:14:39] Nyctophilia: Well, take two, I guess.
[12.08.2018 21:14:56] Nyctophilia: Can you, please, show me what or who you are?
[12.08.2018 21:16:01] Vagrant.Melia: *It begins to reach out with its presence, beyond its form and towards the present minds.*
[12.08.2018 21:16:40] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: [Being already accustomed, he easily merges with the local consciousness.]
[12.08.2018 21:16:41] Nyctophilia: *She feels something is clouding around her head*
[12.08.2018 21:17:38] Nyctophilia: *She begins to breathe heavily, as she slowly passes out and falls into the seat.*
[12.08.2018 21:17:44] Vagrant.Melia: *It begins to surround the perceptions of the pilot. It was indeed clouding the edges of her mind.*
[12.08.2018 21:18:25] Nyctophilia: *Her eyes are closed and her body is completely numb.*
[12.08.2018 21:18:45] Vagrant.Melia: *The more relaxed and accepting her mind became, the more metaphorical ground it could gain.*
[12.08.2018 21:19:16] Vagrant.Melia: *Yet it remained moderated, careful in its approach, not pressing harder than it needed.*
[12.08.2018 21:19:42] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: [As a conjoined entity, the serpent incubus worked alongside Melia, flowing as part of her consciousness.]
[12.08.2018 21:19:42] Nyctophilia: *Urgh... Ugh... The head...*
[12.08.2018 21:20:26] Vagrant.Melia: *With the pilot's perceptions completely in check, it could now proceed to establish the mindscape.*
[12.08.2018 21:20:49] Nyctophilia: "Wha... What is... Where? What?"
[12.08.2018 21:21:50] Vagrant.Melia: *It was a rather devoid place, devoid of any definitively corporeal constructs. There was, however, a dim light pervading.*
[12.08.2018 21:22:17] Nyctophilia: "The... Light?"
[12.08.2018 21:22:21] Nyctophilia: "Am I dead?'
[12.08.2018 21:22:42] Vagrant.Melia: *As time passed it steadily increased in brightness, coming to a 'normal' level of brightness, mostly akin to the nominal light level of human sight.*
[12.08.2018 21:22:51] Nyctophilia: "Gah!"
[12.08.2018 21:23:14] Nyctophilia: *She covered her eyes so the light won't blind her.*
[12.08.2018 21:23:22] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: [He manifested slowly alongside her inside this mindscape. He appeared as he usually would, but with a more ephemeral and translucent quality]
[12.08.2018 21:23:50] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: "Why fear death? It cannot be, when you are."
[12.08.2018 21:24:40] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia began to presume a form in the mindscape. It was luminescent, vaguely human-shaped.*
[12.08.2018 21:24:53] Vagrant.Melia: *Yet the texture was much more in line with its spaceborne form.*
[12.08.2018 21:25:46] Nyctophilia: *As she sees Azhi-Dahaka, she pulls her hand down and jumps away. She also notices Melia at the side.*
[12.08.2018 21:25:52] Nyctophilia: "Where... What is?"
[12.08.2018 21:25:58] Vagrant.Melia: *It all seemed to suddenly freeze while the Order pilot was flying by in real space.*
[12.08.2018 21:26:08] Vagrant.Melia: *As soon as the pilot left, it continued.*
[12.08.2018 21:27:10] Nyctophilia: "Is this the afterlife?"
[12.08.2018 21:27:35] Vagrant.Melia: * The entity seemed to be watching, noting, perhaps even staring.*
[12.08.2018 21:27:58] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: "I think the "afterlife", if such a thing even existed, would be a tiny bit more impressive - no offense to Melia."
[12.08.2018 21:28:19] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: [he grinned widely] "Lacking in singing choirs of angels, too. Guess again."
[12.08.2018 21:28:28] Nyctophilia: "Then it is not..."
[12.08.2018 21:28:33] Vagrant.Melia: "Yet not without song."
[12.08.2018 21:28:45] Nyctophilia: "Urgh... It hurts..."
[12.08.2018 21:28:50] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: "Not without song indeed." [he nodded enthusiastically]
[12.08.2018 21:29:25] Nyctophilia: "So... This is Melia?"
[12.08.2018 21:29:38] Nyctophilia: "The... Alien?"
[12.08.2018 21:30:34] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: "Such narrow classification. She -is- much more than that." [he looked over to the manifestation of Melia, waiting for her-
[12.08.2018 21:30:37] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: input]
[12.08.2018 21:30:51] Vagrant.Melia: "We are Melia. We are an aspect of the Vagrants. We are an embodiment of the Light."
[12.08.2018 21:31:33] Vagrant.Melia: "We are ourselves, our kin, our song. We are whole."
[12.08.2018 21:31:44] Nyctophilia: "And yet... You are one."
[12.08.2018 21:32:01] Nyctophilia: "Are you... Alive?"
[12.08.2018 21:32:10] Nyctophilia: "Can you feel?"
[12.08.2018 21:32:21] Vagrant.Melia: "Does the darkling not feel?"
[12.08.2018 21:33:02] Nyctophilia: "I do. In fact, I do feel the headache right now. However, it started to fade away a bit, now that I adjusted to the... Thing."
[12.08.2018 21:33:32] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: "It hurts only because you expect it to hurt. You don't even suspect how much expetations matter."
[12.08.2018 21:33:41] Nyctophilia: "I totaly didn't expected."
[12.08.2018 21:33:52] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: "Maybe not consciously."
[12.08.2018 21:34:21] Vagrant.Melia: "Yours are used to separation. We are used to unity."
[12.08.2018 21:34:50] Nyctophilia: "Well, let me rephrase it - do you have feelings?"
[12.08.2018 21:35:15] Nyctophilia: "Not for us, but for your own kind."
[12.08.2018 21:35:28] Vagrant.Melia: "We harbor emotion among ourselves. It is a natural trait."
[12.08.2018 21:35:47] Nyctophilia: "Oh."
[12.08.2018 21:35:58] Nyctophilia: "Oh..."
[12.08.2018 21:36:05] Nyctophilia: "That... Changes most of the things."
[12.08.2018 21:36:42] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: "It really doesn't. Just your perspective on the things." [he grins, seemingly enjoying this excursion into mindspace]
[12.08.2018 21:36:58] Nyctophilia: "No offence, but before this day I saw you as reckless killing machines."
[12.08.2018 21:37:02] Nyctophilia: "It does for me."
[12.08.2018 21:37:23] Vagrant.Melia: "Such is a former expectation. There is no value in holding it against you."
[12.08.2018 21:37:34] Vagrant.Melia: "The Light does what it must."
[12.08.2018 21:38:16] Nyctophilia: "Yeah, now I think I understand."
[12.08.2018 21:38:27] Vagrant.Melia: "The Sparkling Raiders sought past their limited vision as darklings. It has brought them far."
[12.08.2018 21:38:41] Nyctophilia: "Sparkling Raiders?"

Welp. I've just got a double confirmation to my nightmare being a cruel reality. A few days of being myself and now - They strike again! How coincidental...
Just a few hours ago I've met with that... Person... Katherine Pennybrooke. They seemed quite sane in the first place, even with that weird Naval Forces Pilot who claimed that there must be a permission to enter the warzone.. However, her tone changed to a more sublime when we departed to Sigmas. Like she had some kind of global plans.
Code:
[20.08.2018 20:13:20] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: And you have no idea how much pain we can feel.
[20.08.2018 20:13:36] Nyctophilia: What?...
[20.08.2018 20:13:43] Nyctophilia: Are you... Talking about?
[20.08.2018 20:13:55] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: What part of what I said confuses you?
[20.08.2018 20:14:34] Nyctophilia: You said "I have no idea how much pain you feel".
[20.08.2018 20:14:48] Nyctophilia: What does it means?"
[20.08.2018 20:14:58] Nyctophilia: Why did you said it?
[20.08.2018 20:15:21] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: A single human can only experience individual suffering.
[20.08.2018 20:15:40] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That is why we are so backward, that is why our development doesn't progress.
[20.08.2018 20:15:56] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: We cannot move past our focus on the individual.
[20.08.2018 20:16:02] Nyctophilia: And that's why the humanity fights itself?
[20.08.2018 20:16:10] Nyctophilia: Because of this struggle?
[20.08.2018 20:16:41] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Yes, it is. Our humanists, philanthropists may have an idea of what the common good is.
[20.08.2018 20:17:09] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: But it's hopeless against the near-universal tyranny of the masses.
[20.08.2018 20:17:47] Nyctophilia: That's a common tendency. The evil always overcomes the good.
[20.08.2018 20:18:24] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It musn't be this way, though. We have been given the unique opportunity to learn from a species that-
[20.08.2018 20:18:28] RV-Pennybrooke: does not have this problem.
[20.08.2018 20:18:52] Nyctophilia: Are you talking about... -Them-?
[20.08.2018 20:19:18] RV-Pennybrooke: They have mastered society in a way that we are biologically incapable of.
[20.08.2018 20:19:35] Nyctophilia: ...Who are you and why are you telling me this?
[20.08.2018 20:20:04] RV-Pennybrooke: I'm Katherine Pennybrooke, and I'm telling you this because you seem interested and I like talking to people.
[20.08.2018 20:20:11] Nyctophilia: I'm just a simple girl. From the dark corner of Liberty. Why is this all happening to me?
[20.08.2018 20:20:29] Death: PsychoOnFire suffered a self-inflicted catastrophic decompression.
[20.08.2018 20:20:41] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's happening to everybody. We have our chance, but few will ever realize it.
[20.08.2018 20:20:53] Nyctophilia: So you -know-?
[20.08.2018 20:21:31] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: If you're implying that I know the concept of boundless suffering and the possibility of ending it forever....
[20.08.2018 20:21:42] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I work towards it every day of my life.
[20.08.2018 20:22:40] Nyctophilia: I wasn't asking for this question... However, that was interesting to hear.
[20.08.2018 20:23:09] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I get the impression that you are not just the simple girl you mentioned before.
[20.08.2018 20:23:34] Nyctophilia: I am. I am just a stalker and I know how to utilize my skills correctly.
[20.08.2018 20:24:09] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: As am I, with the addition of having the great fortune of being born into a family of great means.
[20.08.2018 20:24:42] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Still, the important part is that we make the encounters we do and work with what they give us.
[20.08.2018 20:24:56] Nyctophilia: I also know my own weaknesses, fears, and I completely know myself. The only thing I don't know is what I want.
[20.08.2018 20:25:44] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: What I want is simple. To maximize pleasure and minimize suffering among my fellow people.
[20.08.2018 20:26:05] Nyctophilia: There are multiple ways to do so.
[20.08.2018 20:26:16] Nyctophilia: I assume your is not the worst one.And there was also this... Strange Corvo. We had a "nice" chatter until Katherine went nutts. And I mean completely insane. Like she wasn't controlling herself.

[20.08.2018 20:26:24] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Oh dang.
[20.08.2018 20:26:27] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Perhaps. Unfortunately- oh, good day.
[20.08.2018 20:26:32] Nyctophilia: Hiya!
[20.08.2018 20:26:36] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Uhm, hello there.
[20.08.2018 20:26:56] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Just, uh, got a lil' spooked there seeing two people by a jump hole.
[20.08.2018 20:26:59] Nyctophilia: What a weird name for a ship.
[20.08.2018 20:27:05] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: We were having a riveting conversation about the nature of humanism, would you care to join?
[20.08.2018 20:27:11] Nyctophilia: Yeah, enjoying a view of a star.
[20.08.2018 20:27:21] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: It's, uhm, Rheinland.
[20.08.2018 20:27:33] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Houses aren't real.
[20.08.2018 20:27:34] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Or rather Rheinlandian. And, uhm, I guess, sure.
[20.08.2018 20:27:42] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: It means glimmer of hope.
[20.08.2018 20:27:57] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: It was named this way by my beloved before he went away.
[20.08.2018 20:27:58] Nyctophilia: Oh real? Thanks for translating.
[20.08.2018 20:28:21] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: It was a gift from him. Sort of.
[20.08.2018 20:28:23] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I'm sorry for your loss. It is a lovely ship name, though.
[20.08.2018 20:28:37] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: It is alright. He is happy.
[20.08.2018 20:29:01] Nyctophilia: The design is astonishing, however... What is with these... Things?
[20.08.2018 20:29:01] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I- well. It doesn't matter now.
[20.08.2018 20:29:18] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: What is what? The tendrils?
[20.08.2018 20:29:34] Nyctophilia: Yeah.
[20.08.2018 20:29:35] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: I don't know what they are. I never was too smart.
[20.08.2018 20:29:58] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It is a very attractive sight, that is for sure.
[20.08.2018 20:30:12] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: I never really understood it. Do you know?
[20.08.2018 20:30:16] Nyctophilia: Almost look like on these... Alien ships I saw in the Omicrons.
[20.08.2018 20:30:35] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Hmm, true, I guess.
[20.08.2018 20:30:56] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I believe there is an evolutionary recognition of aesthetics for the beauty of the Nomad.
[20.08.2018 20:31:12] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: They are scary.
[20.08.2018 20:31:16] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Much as we have for sea creatures of a planetside environment.
[20.08.2018 20:31:31] Nyctophilia: Their shells do indeedly look beautiful, but... Behind that, hides a menasing nature of a predator.
[20.08.2018 20:31:46] Nyctophilia: Well... Depends on who you are.
[20.08.2018 20:31:48] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Uhm, my name is Th-Thallia, by the way.
[20.08.2018 20:31:49] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They are scary, perhaps. But they represent our home.
[20.08.2018 20:32:03] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine Pennybrooke, it's a pleasure.
[20.08.2018 20:32:07] Nyctophilia: Nice to meet you, Thalia! Can call me Nycto.
[20.08.2018 20:32:19] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Oh, I g-guess I could've garnered that from the sh-ship name.
[20.08.2018 20:32:43] RV-Pennybrooke: Not terribly original, is it? I was younger at the time.
[20.08.2018 20:32:56] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: H-how much?
[20.08.2018 20:32:57] Nyctophilia: So it's a family ship?
[20.08.2018 20:33:31] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: A family ships of sorts; when we purchased this, I was flying with my brother primarily.
[20.08.2018 20:33:45] RV-Pennybrooke: Our interests diverged at some point.
[20.08.2018 20:33:53] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: I envy you for h-having a sibling.
[20.08.2018 20:34:31] Nyctophilia: Do I envy you for having a simbling AND to have an experience to fly with in space in a gunship.
[20.08.2018 20:34:34] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *sighing* They're a lot of trouble too, you know. He's not only my brother, he's my twin.
[20.08.2018 20:34:50] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: And don't get me started on my little sister.
[20.08.2018 20:34:52] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: *The voice tentatively laughs.*
[20.08.2018 20:35:21] Nyctophilia: This is the only thing I've got to fly in years since I've got out of Liberty. Passed through alot of modifications since then.
[20.08.2018 20:35:25] Nyctophilia: And repairs.
[20.08.2018 20:35:34] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: S-sounds rough.
[20.08.2018 20:35:38] Nyctophilia: Yep.
[20.08.2018 20:35:43] Nyctophilia: Because. Liberty.
[20.08.2018 20:35:51] Nyctophilia: Independant worlds.
[20.08.2018 20:35:57] Nyctophilia: And everything else.
[20.08.2018 20:36:05] Nyctophilia: Sums up for itself.
[20.08.2018 20:36:12] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Thalia, was it? That's one of the muses, is it not?
[20.08.2018 20:36:39] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: I-is it? I never knew.
[20.08.2018 20:37:04] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: M-my mother probably didn't e-either. She gave me the name with t-two L.
[20.08.2018 20:37:59] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Huh. *the distinctly female voice seems as though she was busy for a moment.*
[20.08.2018 20:38:03] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: The muse of comedy, yes. You seem awfully uncertain of yourself to inspire people to comedy!
[20.08.2018 20:38:20] Nyctophilia: Not your everyday Corvo you can see in the edge worlds.
[20.08.2018 20:38:31] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: C-comedy and poetry?
[20.08.2018 20:38:45] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Have you tried your hands at it?
[20.08.2018 20:39:23] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Though I shouldn't say such things, you didn't choose your name and you aren't obliged to obligate its connotations.
[20.08.2018 20:39:33] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: N-no. *There is a hint of uncertainty in the voice.* I h-have t-trouble speaking.
[20.08.2018 20:40:09] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: I-it's something with my nerves. I just sp-speak faster and start stuttering.
[20.08.2018 20:40:17] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I can hear that. But nobody ever got wiser from a relentless stream of words.
[20.08.2018 20:40:38] RV-Pennybrooke: You can be equally insightful with a few, slowly and carefully selected words.
[20.08.2018 20:41:13] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: I-it's just hard in pl- *She breaks off, taking a breath.*
[20.08.2018 20:41:42] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Take a breath dear, you're not on exam. Say as much or as little as you wish.
[20.08.2018 20:42:04] RV-Pennybrooke: Sometimes the best moments we can have are those in which we appreciate our surroundings in silence.
[20.08.2018 20:42:18] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Sorry, I just was still spooked b-by when I came here. *It takes audible effort but she speaks normally.*
[20.08.2018 20:42:38] Nyctophilia: Afraid of an ambush?
[20.08.2018 20:42:58] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Oh? N-no. I can always just hide.
[20.08.2018 20:43:20] Nyctophilia: Even so, your ship's equipment could have taken both of us down.
[20.08.2018 20:43:53] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: If you're trying to hide from the horrors of humanity, you've come to a place where you can at least-
[20.08.2018 20:43:54] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Th-these don't really work. Not without a second pilot.
[20.08.2018 20:43:57] RV-Pennybrooke: get some distance.
[20.08.2018 20:44:22] Nyctophilia: Wouldn't bet on that, pirates and even the Order are still a thing.
[20.08.2018 20:44:25] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Th-the targeting computer is really bad.
[20.08.2018 20:44:28] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It doesn't matter, I'm not even carrying weapons, and Nycto here is not threatening you either.
[20.08.2018 20:45:17] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Y-yes, thank you.
[20.08.2018 20:45:29] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Uhm, I mean...
[20.08.2018 20:45:38] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: I appreciate it.
[20.08.2018 20:45:45] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It is often in these remote regions that one can find solace.
[20.08.2018 20:46:03] RV-Pennybrooke: You are statistically far more likely to be attacked in the main tradelanes in Liberty than here.
[20.08.2018 20:46:23] Nyctophilia: Or in Omegas.
[20.08.2018 20:46:41] Nyctophilia: Especially closer to Bretonia, considering Corsairs and Hessians.
[20.08.2018 20:46:56] Nyctophilia: Here, in Sigmas?
[20.08.2018 20:47:09] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Out here, people have time, and listen. That may be anecdotal from my own experiences, but....
[20.08.2018 20:48:14] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: I-it might help that it takes h-hours to travel.
[20.08.2018 20:48:41] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Wh-why'd you stay here, though?
[20.08.2018 20:48:50] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: And it may take centuries for everything to right itself, but that doesn't matter in the moment.
[20.08.2018 20:48:50] Nyctophilia: Enjoying the view of the star.
[20.08.2018 20:49:02] Nyctophilia: And an occasional conversation.
[20.08.2018 20:49:39] Nyctophilia: You won't believe this, but a few minutes ago, we were escorted to this place by the Naval Forces pilot.
[20.08.2018 20:49:46] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Once the great renewal is complete, we can enjoy every moment as this one.
[20.08.2018 20:50:00] Nyctophilia: Under the claim that anyone who traverses the War Zone is to be escorted out or to be destroyed.
[20.08.2018 20:50:05] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: The N-navy likely wants to get you into s-safety.
[20.08.2018 20:50:12] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Or th-that.
[20.08.2018 20:50:19] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They were polite but dutiful, much like the Rheinlanders I met earlier.
[20.08.2018 20:51:14] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It is honestly very effective to simply be unarmed.
[20.08.2018 20:51:17] Nyctophilia: Didn't heard anything like that from all the previous officers in the area, so I think I better off to send a message to the
[20.08.2018 20:51:17] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: I g-guess they are just doing their thankless job.
[20.08.2018 20:51:21] Nyctophilia: Naval Forces themselves.
[20.08.2018 20:52:04] RV-Pennybrooke: When you lay yourself bare, you are at the same time exposing yourself and empowering yourself.
[20.08.2018 20:52:07] Nyctophilia: If you're flying a Snubcraft Vessel... With the only colletion of Designer Clothes in Sirius...
[20.08.2018 20:52:17] Nyctophilia: I would disagree.
[20.08.2018 20:52:18] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: It reminds me o-of wolves.
[20.08.2018 20:53:17] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Th-they do fight a lot, but they n-never kill each other. A-almost at least.
[20.08.2018 20:53:28] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It is my hope that I can complete all I wish in my life without one shot, but it may be impossible.
[20.08.2018 20:53:39] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Wh-when one submits, it r-rolls around and exposes its th-throat, b-because that is the place where they b-bite pray.
[20.08.2018 20:54:11] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: They are b-basically saying 'I am a stupid moose, so you might a-as well kill me'. And the other s-says 'You a-are, but I might
[20.08.2018 20:54:17] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: need you t-to hunt'.
[20.08.2018 20:54:18] Nyctophilia: If you manage to stay pacifist until the very end of your life, I'd be surprised.
[20.08.2018 20:54:20] RV-Pennybrooke: And yet, are you not free in that moment that you expose yourself?
[20.08.2018 20:54:40] RV-Pennybrooke: They can choose to go for the kill, but almost nobody will.
[20.08.2018 20:55:19] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Despite all our flaws, there is an inherent recognition in the peaceful exchange that transcends all other human-
[20.08.2018 20:55:21] RV-Pennybrooke: boundaries.
[20.08.2018 20:55:52] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Of course there are crazy outliers, but I'm still alive after years of this.
[20.08.2018 20:57:06] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: I g-guess we are like w-wolves.
[20.08.2018 20:57:19] Nyctophilia: Humanity is indeed a pack of wolves.
[20.08.2018 20:57:30] Nyctophilia: However, when there will be no mooses.
[20.08.2018 20:57:35] Nyctophilia: There will be canibalism.
[20.08.2018 20:57:43] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: We are. We have a degree of savagery that we will never shake off, likely, based on our biology.
[20.08.2018 20:57:45] Nyctophilia: Oh, Crete.
[20.08.2018 20:58:18] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Until the great purge happens of course. After that, the serene calm of this will become the status quo.
[20.08.2018 20:58:35] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Th-that does not sound serene.
[20.08.2018 20:58:50] Nyctophilia: The... Great Purge?
[20.08.2018 20:59:10] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Oh, it will be. We will work on a true utopia.
[20.08.2018 20:59:31] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Yes, the great purge, that is why we must prepare.
[20.08.2018 21:00:02] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Pre-prepare how?
[20.08.2018 21:00:26] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: We must discard our old tribal ideas of race, class, sex, status.
[20.08.2018 21:00:43] RV-Pennybrooke: Only ideas, kindness, and love will matter.
[20.08.2018 21:00:52] Nyctophilia: To make the humanity... One?
[20.08.2018 21:01:17] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: In a sense, yes. Though I feel the concept is often misunderstood.
[20.08.2018 21:02:18] Nyctophilia: You... Begin to concern me.
[20.08.2018 21:02:25] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Most humans deeply fear the loss of individuality, even though that isn't at all what it means./concern*
[20.08.2018 21:03:15] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I would say that it means the unleashing of humanity, without the bounds that have shackled us previously.
[20.08.2018 21:03:54] Nyctophilia: Why does your tone sounds so familiar?
[20.08.2018 21:04:05] Nyctophilia: Where did I heard it before?
[20.08.2018 21:04:29] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: The v-voice sounds no d-different.
[20.08.2018 21:04:58] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *very concentrated* We will blow off the shackles of competition! All our efforts will be limited only by ourselves!
[20.08.2018 21:05:41] Nyctophilia: *She places the fingers of her right hand on the forehead* I heard this kind of tone before. Where and when?
[20.08.2018 21:05:59] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Our level of understanding of the world will skyrocket! We will be living on a new level of conciousness!
[20.08.2018 21:06:03] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: A-are we then not still d-different? Then people will s-still perform d-differently.
[20.08.2018 21:06:36] Nyctophilia: No. You're just going nutts.
[20.08.2018 21:06:56] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Of course we will be different! We will tackle our own desires in our own ways, but with no scorn or ostracism!
[20.08.2018 21:07:41] Nyctophilia: I respect all the efforts of the scientists... But believe me, overworking will not get your sanity on a good level.
[20.08.2018 21:07:56] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Th-that does sound c-cool.
[20.08.2018 21:08:04] RV-Pennybrooke: *her voice slightly shaking with excitement* We will be in a true, genuine utopia of reason, science and humanism!
[20.08.2018 21:08:16] Nyctophilia: Yeah yeah...
[20.08.2018 21:08:16] RV-Pennybrooke: The trinity of the enlightenment will come to fruition!
[20.08.2018 21:08:49] Nyctophilia: Seriously, I recommend you to take some rest.
[20.08.2018 21:09:00] RV-Pennybrooke: *quieting down somewhat* Of course, billions will die in the purge, but billions have already died.
[20.08.2018 21:09:08] RV-Pennybrooke: And it will be the last time.
[20.08.2018 21:09:13] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: O-oh goodness.
[20.08.2018 21:09:35] Nyctophilia: You are not oblidged to listen to my recommendations, but please. Your colleagues need your minds in a proper state.
[20.08.2018 21:10:29] RV-Pennybrooke: The funeral pyres we will make of those masses will be the lights that guide us to a new age!
[20.08.2018 21:11:11] Nyctophilia: Alright... That does not sounds pacefuly.
[20.08.2018 21:11:41] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: W-we should m-maybe move away from th-the jump hole?
[20.08.2018 21:11:50] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: There is no other way! We must commit all we can to submit, that is why I do this!
[20.08.2018 21:12:18] Nyctophilia: You submit to what?
[20.08.2018 21:12:20] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: But there will be countless people who will refuse to the end and will burn!
[20.08.2018 21:12:28] RV-Pennybrooke: That is why it is the great purge!
[20.08.2018 21:13:04] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: I-i think I'll just stay out here.
[20.08.2018 21:13:07] Nyctophilia: If you will say the only word, I won't have any doubts.
[20.08.2018 21:13:14] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: To submit to what? The unification with the Slomon K'hara!
[20.08.2018 21:13:32] RV-Pennybrooke: We may not have known it, but it was our goal ever since we arrived in the Sirius sector!
[20.08.2018 21:13:55] Nyctophilia: The what now?
[20.08.2018 21:14:05] Nyctophilia: Who are these?
[20.08.2018 21:14:16] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: S-sounds Gallic.
[20.08.2018 21:14:18] RV-Pennybrooke: The Nomads. The Natives. The ones who actually live here, before we drove them out.
[20.08.2018 21:14:25] Nyctophilia: The -Light-?!
[20.08.2018 21:14:49] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They are the solution to all human suffering, and people can see it!
[20.08.2018 21:14:57] RV-Pennybrooke: Yet they still refuse to acknowledge it!
[20.08.2018 21:15:30] Nyctophilia: So you're telling me that the Light planned the Purge?!
[20.08.2018 21:15:58] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They have always planned to strike back. They must!
[20.08.2018 21:16:23] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They cannot simply stand by as their land is being taken over by the disease that is humanity!
[20.08.2018 21:16:42] Nyctophilia: You do realise that the first one to die will be -you-?
[20.08.2018 21:17:47] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I have little hope that it will happen in my lifetime anyway.
[20.08.2018 21:18:21] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: But I play my part, small as it may be. And one day, perhaps, I will be the harbinger of the great purge.
[20.08.2018 21:18:23] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Th-this is why I try to stay away from th-things.
[20.08.2018 21:18:27] Nyctophilia: To die get killed by anyone else but them. I guess you call that mercy.
[20.08.2018 21:19:08] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I will be at the spear that simultaneously kills and saves humanity.
[20.08.2018 21:19:32] Nyctophilia: Well, what a global idea.
[20.08.2018 21:19:45] Nyctophilia: To kill and to save the humanity at the same time.
[20.08.2018 21:20:01] Nyctophilia: And to be one of the ones doing so.
[20.08.2018 21:20:11] Nyctophilia: Reality is - you will be the first one to be cropped.
[20.08.2018 21:20:23] Nyctophilia: When time strikes.
[20.08.2018 21:20:34] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *she laughs dryly* You have no idea. It has already begun.
[20.08.2018 21:21:01] Nyctophilia: I may have no idea, however, I do feel them.
[20.08.2018 21:21:10] Nyctophilia: They showed me.
[20.08.2018 21:21:12] RV-Pennybrooke: My ship shall fire the first nonexistent shot with its nonexistent guns, the silence that heralds the new age.
[20.08.2018 21:21:39] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: Y-you said that already.
[20.08.2018 21:21:43] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Oh, believe me. They made me feel it too. Why do you think I became their herald.
[20.08.2018 21:22:29] Nyctophilia: Thing is - I did not decided to be the herald of destruction. To not be herald of anything.
[20.08.2018 21:22:39] Nyctophilia: They told me what the Light and Darkness is.
[20.08.2018 21:23:04] RV-Pennybrooke: I do not espouse destruction. I espouse betterment.
[20.08.2018 21:23:38] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Destruction may be a side effect, and one I deeply regret. But it is in no way our goal.
[20.08.2018 21:23:56] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: I-I guess you two are b-busy.
[20.08.2018 21:24:18] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: *Audibly being uncomfortable with the topic.*
[20.08.2018 21:24:31] Nyctophilia: We're just having a discussion on how things should be manifested.
[20.08.2018 21:24:33] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Do not be intimidated, Thallia! In the new world, your nervousness will cause you no hindrances!
[20.08.2018 21:25:03] CV-Hoffnungsschimmer: N-no, I n-need to be somewhere... *She becomes quieter as she speaks, eventually being quiet.*And after they've departed, we both discussed something on Nomads.
Code:
[20.08.2018 21:25:20] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Hm. Seemed to be urgent.
[20.08.2018 21:25:47] Nyctophilia: I am more than certain that you've seen -them- for more than one time.
[20.08.2018 21:26:17] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They have driven me to spend most of my time in the edge.
[20.08.2018 21:26:38] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: The madness of the houses has become increasingly unbearable to me.
[20.08.2018 21:26:53] Nyctophilia: Explains most of the things. Your attitude in particular.
[20.08.2018 21:27:30] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Well, you listened long enough for me to get to my rant, so clearly you showed some interest.
[20.08.2018 21:27:51] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Was it too much?
[20.08.2018 21:27:55] Nyctophilia: I am more concerned about -why- this is happening to me.
[20.08.2018 21:28:07] Nyctophilia: Not about itself.
[20.08.2018 21:28:24] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: There is nothing in particular that is happening to you. There are things happening to people.
[20.08.2018 21:28:31] RV-Pennybrooke: And you are one of them.
[20.08.2018 21:28:34] Nyctophilia: No.
[20.08.2018 21:28:54] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: You...aren't?
[20.08.2018 21:29:05] Nyctophilia: I doubt that any other sirian in my place would just stay here and listen to your rant.
[20.08.2018 21:29:15] Nyctophilia: They would just torpedo your ship.
[20.08.2018 21:29:19] Nyctophilia: To end your misery.
[20.08.2018 21:29:47] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: You would be surprised. There are many, many people that are searching for something.
[20.08.2018 21:30:04] Nyctophilia: I know that I'm not alone.
[20.08.2018 21:30:21] Nyctophilia: Still. Of all people, why me?
[20.08.2018 21:30:31] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It may not be what they want to hear, but many people wish to hear something about their future regardless.
[20.08.2018 21:30:44] Nyctophilia: I keep asking this question ever since I got to see that... Thing in the Omicrons.
[20.08.2018 21:30:45] RV-Pennybrooke: Because you were interested.
[20.08.2018 21:30:59] Nyctophilia: I still don't know what happened, but... I think I saw a dream.
[20.08.2018 21:31:28] Nyctophilia: I literaly felt asleep in my ship infront of Toledo... And there was... An alien shaped human.
[20.08.2018 21:31:43] RV-Pennybrooke: It's very confusing at first. I still remember my first time "hearing" them.
[20.08.2018 21:32:01] Nyctophilia: So do I. It really sticks into your memory.
[20.08.2018 21:32:29] Nyctophilia: But it wasn't neither a man or a woman... Just a shape of a person. And a voice wasn't clear.
[20.08.2018 21:33:26] RV-Pennybrooke: Well, obviously it's quite hard for them to display a sort of human....personality that we'd recognize.
[20.08.2018 21:33:41] RV-Pennybrooke: So they have to improvise with their thought patterns.
[20.08.2018 21:34:03] Nyctophilia: I still don't know if it was a dream or... They did showed me themselves as I asked them to.
[20.08.2018 21:34:47] RV-Pennybrooke: They have a different way of approaching conciousness. They don't really have a boundary between dreams and communication.
[20.08.2018 21:34:56] Nyctophilia: So it wasn't...
[20.08.2018 21:35:42] RV-Pennybrooke: Maybe it was. Maybe they tried to show you something that would inspire you, or maybe it was something real they tried to tell you.
[20.08.2018 21:36:02] Nyctophilia: Maybe...
[20.08.2018 21:36:38] RV-Pennybrooke: It's not always easy to communicate with them, unless they....well, you know.
[20.08.2018 21:36:47] Nyctophilia: I don't.
[20.08.2018 21:37:10] Nyctophilia: This was the only time I ever got to meet an alien that did not shot me.
[20.08.2018 21:37:18] RV-Pennybrooke: Unless they are united with a human. Then they have the human's capacities.
[20.08.2018 21:37:30] Nyctophilia: Uhm?
[20.08.2018 21:37:37] Nyctophilia: Do they... Possess human bodies?
[20.08.2018 21:37:40] RV-Pennybrooke: Oh, I'm not an alien. I'm sorry if I may have been sending signals that implied that.
[20.08.2018 21:38:02] RV-Pennybrooke: I have absolutely nothing alien about me.
[20.08.2018 21:38:09] Nyctophilia: No, I'm not talking about you. It was -that- alien.
[20.08.2018 21:38:18] RV-Pennybrooke: Who?
[20.08.2018 21:39:14] Nyctophilia: They named themselves... I can't remember...
[20.08.2018 21:39:18] Nyctophilia: Marie... Melia...
[20.08.2018 21:39:22] Nyctophilia: Something like that...
[20.08.2018 21:39:42] RV-Pennybrooke: What, the pilot of that Corvo?
[20.08.2018 21:39:54] RV-Pennybrooke: Thallia?
[20.08.2018 21:39:58] Nyctophilia: Not Thallia.
[20.08.2018 21:40:49] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: What are you talking about? Who else did we meet?
[20.08.2018 21:40:54] Nyctophilia: We didn't.
[20.08.2018 21:41:08] Nyctophilia: I'm talking about the other alien I've met before you.
[20.08.2018 21:41:22] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Oh, of course.
[20.08.2018 21:42:01] RV-Pennybrooke: Tell me more about this encounter.
[20.08.2018 21:42:06] Nyctophilia: Not a human. The alien. That showed me themselves. Not the shell. The consciousness.
[20.08.2018 21:42:42] RV-Pennybrooke: Hm. And what did they show you?
[20.08.2018 21:43:07] Nyctophilia: Just a shape of a human body with some alien elements. And they've talked to me.
[20.08.2018 21:43:14] Nyctophilia: About... Themselves.
[20.08.2018 21:43:29] Nyctophilia: Who they are, what is the Light.
[20.08.2018 21:43:37] Nyctophilia: And how did the War started.
[20.08.2018 21:43:39] RV-Pennybrooke: That's intriguing.
[20.08.2018 21:44:19] RV-Pennybrooke: I always figured the war was quite simple, humanity encroached on their territory and hostility was set.
[20.08.2018 21:44:59] Nyctophilia: They've also told me about how they were defeated and that they are a part of the ones that passed through the hypergates.
[20.08.2018 21:45:03] Nyctophilia: The Vagrants.
[20.08.2018 21:45:30] Nyctophilia: And... Asking how it felt to be separated from the others was a wrong move.
[20.08.2018 21:45:46] Nyctophilia: Proved my point that they have feelings.
[20.08.2018 21:46:16] RV-Pennybrooke: "Vagrants"....yes, I've felt that personal description before.
[20.08.2018 21:46:46] RV-Pennybrooke: I was delivering.....er....stuff, to a place, and I was welcomed by on of theirs.
[20.08.2018 21:47:47] RV-Pennybrooke: It was peculiar that it didn't immediately recognize me, but if they were separated that would explain it.
[20.08.2018 21:48:10] Nyctophilia: You mentioned the Arch. I've actually never heard of it before, if you can share something on it to me, it would be appreciated
[20.08.2018 21:48:44] Nyctophilia: Actually, I heard only rumors.
[20.08.2018 21:49:00] Nyctophilia: The installation deep within Kusari under the rule of Tekagi.
[20.08.2018 21:49:06] RV-Pennybrooke: Well, it's a magnificient construction in a system that is now off limits by Kusari law.
[20.08.2018 21:49:41] RV-Pennybrooke: But that won't help you, you could learn that on a quick neural net search.
[20.08.2018 21:50:11] Nyctophilia: Or just by going there myself, with a cloaking device activated.
[20.08.2018 21:50:22] Nyctophilia: If only I knew where to go.
[20.08.2018 21:50:30] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I am not sure what your motives are here, still, so it's hard for me to say too much.
[20.08.2018 21:50:39] Nyctophilia: Simple.
[20.08.2018 21:50:52] RV-Pennybrooke: But I think I can safely say that it is very important to 'them'.
[20.08.2018 21:51:22] Nyctophilia: Being a weirdo who stalks people. And also unravelling every mystery in this sector.
[20.08.2018 21:51:43] Nyctophilia: And by your words, the Arch smells like a huge mystery.
[20.08.2018 21:52:01] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Be careful following mysteries. You might just get caught up in them.
[20.08.2018 21:52:15] Nyctophilia: However, as they say, curiosity killed the cat.
[20.08.2018 21:53:15] RV-Pennybrooke: If you think you want to seek out that place, I won't and can't stop you.
[20.08.2018 21:53:24] Nyctophilia: I just might.
[20.08.2018 21:54:08] Nyctophilia: However, if it's off-limits and someone happens to recide at this thing, I better off to not disturb them.
[20.08.2018 21:54:49] Nyctophilia: Like that agent before.
[20.08.2018 21:55:03] RV-Pennybrooke: Yes, it is extraordinarily dangerous to approach. The KNF will turn you back, best case. Shoot you otherwise.
[20.08.2018 21:55:25] RV-Pennybrooke: And they will also turn you back best case, and more likely shoot you.
[20.08.2018 21:56:04] RV-Pennybrooke: I have built up trust over the years, but they do not exactly have tourist visas
[20.08.2018 21:56:32] Nyctophilia: Isn't the probability to get shot always higher?
[20.08.2018 21:56:38] Nyctophilia: No matter where you are?
[20.08.2018 21:57:30] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: You can get shot anywhere for almost any reason. That's why I carry no weapons, so at least there aren't any reasons
[20.08.2018 21:58:08] RV-Pennybrooke: I've found the natives to be much more tolerant of that than humanity.
[20.08.2018 21:58:53] Nyctophilia: Well, don't know about you, but I prefer to keep to my guns.
[20.08.2018 21:59:23] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I don't need them. If I am truly in danger, I will call them and they will know.
[20.08.2018 21:59:37] Nyctophilia: Ever since there's a paramilitary organisation's leader calling me out for spying...
[20.08.2018 22:00:00] Nyctophilia: I only can dream about a peaceful life.
[20.08.2018 22:00:18] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: You are spying. Or at least, intelligence gathering. But that I am happy to oblige you with.
[20.08.2018 22:00:35] RV-Pennybrooke: I would very much hope that you will have gathered intelligence from this meeting.
[20.08.2018 22:05:23] Nyctophilia: That... Was weird.
[20.08.2018 22:05:33] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Slightly.
[20.08.2018 22:05:35] Nyctophilia: Love some Ion Interruption.
[20.08.2018 22:05:59] Nyctophilia: But what I was about to say - Yes, I am some sort of a spy.
[20.08.2018 22:06:07] Nyctophilia: In a sort.
[20.08.2018 22:06:41] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Who do you gather your intelligence for?
[20.08.2018 22:06:46] Nyctophilia: For myself.
[20.08.2018 22:06:49] Nyctophilia: And only.
[20.08.2018 22:07:20] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Now that is something that I deeply respect. I started my entire journey as an explorer.
[20.08.2018 22:08:30] Nyctophilia: Most people, as you can say, not in fond of that an get a little paranoid about it.
[20.08.2018 22:09:18] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I endeavor to be as open as possible about as many things as possible.
[20.08.2018 22:09:20] Nyctophilia: To the extent when they start to shoot at Freeports to kill me.
[20.08.2018 22:09:42] RV-Pennybrooke: Of course, that isn't always possible. Seems you know a little about that.
[20.08.2018 22:10:03] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: But I want to be an open mouthpiece for my ideals.
[20.08.2018 22:10:09] Nyctophilia: Well, that I can approve, however, some may gain an advantage in your persona.
[20.08.2018 22:10:12] RV-Pennybrooke: There is nothing to be gained from silence.
[20.08.2018 22:10:42] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I do wish to gain an advantage, that is my entire mission.
[20.08.2018 22:11:27] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: When I said I was a pacifist and a humanist, I was entirely serious. Those concepts mean everything to me.
[20.08.2018 22:11:32] Nyctophilia: No-no-no-no-no, you don't get it. I ment that some may abuse your openness as your weakness.
[20.08.2018 22:12:09] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They will, and have. I've been shot at before.
[20.08.2018 22:12:26] Nyctophilia: Not just by shooting at you.
[20.08.2018 22:12:37] Nyctophilia: Far way more complicated things.
[20.08.2018 22:12:49] RV-Pennybrooke: Such as?
[20.08.2018 22:12:52] Nyctophilia: As manipulation.
[20.08.2018 22:14:10] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Manipulation works best in the absence of knowledge.
[20.08.2018 22:14:22] RV-Pennybrooke: Knowledge is the antidote to manipulation.
[20.08.2018 22:14:38] Nyctophilia: True.
[20.08.2018 22:15:27] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Manipulation is a core component of human psyche and the resulting oppression.
[20.08.2018 22:15:33] RV-Pennybrooke: But that, too, will end.
[20.08.2018 22:16:08] Nyctophilia: You know, one sometimes can't see a difference between help and manipulation.
[20.08.2018 22:16:24] RV-Pennybrooke: The only manipulation I will open myself up to is the challenging of perceived truths.
[20.08.2018 22:17:25] Nyctophilia: Irony is that sometime I think I'm my own manipulator.
[20.08.2018 22:17:53] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: You are, but that is based on the sum total of your experiences.
[20.08.2018 22:18:34] RV-Pennybrooke: I think you will one day let go those experiences, and open yourself to the infinity of progress.
[20.08.2018 22:19:09] Nyctophilia: Can't anticipate for this day to come.
[20.08.2018 22:19:25] Nyctophilia: But I have a strange feeling that this is inevitable.
[20.08.2018 22:19:34] Nyctophilia: Especialy after I met that Vagrant.
[20.08.2018 22:19:48] RV-Pennybrooke: The most difficult part to accept is that we are not necessarily the heroes.
[20.08.2018 22:20:02] Nyctophilia: Oh, I am not even a hero.
[20.08.2018 22:20:34] Nyctophilia: I am just a weird girl who hides in the shadows and stalks people.
[20.08.2018 22:20:41] 2018-08-20 22:20:43 SMT : RV-Pennybrooke is attempting to disconnect from the server
[20.08.2018 22:22:12] Nyctophilia: Seems like the Ion Storm is all over Sirius.
[20.08.2018 22:22:22] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Hm. Seems I may have encountered a malfunction like you did earlier.
[20.08.2018 22:23:02] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Anyhow, I believe it is important that we focus as strongly as we can on our own efforts.
[20.08.2018 22:23:17] Nyctophilia: That's why I'm here.
[20.08.2018 22:23:30] RV-Pennybrooke: While acknowledging that we only have minor parts to play in the grand scheme of things.
[20.08.2018 22:23:39] Nyctophilia: The Sigma warzone is an interesting place and you never know what happens here every day.
[20.08.2018 22:23:52] Nyctophilia: Today I've met you.
[20.08.2018 22:24:03] Nyctophilia: And who knows what happens tomorrow?
[20.08.2018 22:24:12] Nyctophilia: Maybe I'll meet the ones you've mentioned.
[20.08.2018 22:24:27] RV-Pennybrooke: Tomorrow everything will be better, statistically.
[20.08.2018 22:24:38] Nyctophilia: Or worse.
[20.08.2018 22:24:47] RV-Pennybrooke: Over a long period of time at least.
[20.08.2018 22:25:40] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: What's your name, companion?
[20.08.2018 22:25:59] RV-Pennybrooke: I'm sure it's not "Nycto".
[20.08.2018 22:26:14] Nyctophilia: I never tell my name to anyone. Literally, nobody knows it, but the callsign is Nyctophilia or Nycto.
[20.08.2018 22:26:56] RV-Pennybrooke: Perhaps you should. It's a primitive comfort, but something I think many people appreciate regardless.
[20.08.2018 22:27:16] Nyctophilia: It's for my own safety to not be known.
[20.08.2018 22:27:50] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: And you do seem very uncertain about your life. It may help you get a psychological anchor.
[20.08.2018 22:28:19] Nyctophilia: This uncertainty is my anchor.
[20.08.2018 22:28:37] Nyctophilia: This is what drives me forward.
[20.08.2018 22:28:55] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That is...an interesting perspective on things.
[20.08.2018 22:29:21] RV-Pennybrooke: But I question how much this will actually help you to move forward.
[20.08.2018 22:29:32] RV-Pennybrooke: What do you consider to be your goals?
[20.08.2018 22:30:08] Nyctophilia: You never know what can be your goal. I never have an actual goal. I just fly around and talk to people.
[20.08.2018 22:30:20] Nyctophilia: Be it a nice conversation, like we have right now.
[20.08.2018 22:30:29] Nyctophilia: Or a nuke bombardement.
[20.08.2018 22:30:35] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That was my own goal a few years ago as well.
[20.08.2018 22:31:49] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: But I believe it is worthwhile to invest in a.....grander idea of the future.
[20.08.2018 22:32:04] Nyctophilia: Not in my case. Not yet.
[20.08.2018 22:32:29] Nyctophilia: Whilist I respect your efforts and goals, I don't have any global ideas or dreams.
[20.08.2018 22:32:41] Nyctophilia: I'm on my own in my own world.
[20.08.2018 22:32:58] 2018-08-20 22:33:01 SMT : RV-Pennybrooke is attempting to disconnect from the server
[20.08.2018 22:35:03] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Hm, this is becoming a problem.
[20.08.2018 22:35:08] Nyctophilia: Yeah...
[20.08.2018 22:35:40] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I want for you to simply remember what I said.
[20.08.2018 22:35:54] Nyctophilia: But, back on topic. If I had any global ideas, I'd run an independant detective agency.
[20.08.2018 22:36:00] Nyctophilia: And...
[20.08.2018 22:36:01] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: In case my communications fail permanently.And then... This came. The reminiscent alien shape and voice. Keeps talking about my fears, concerns, aversions. My only weaknesses that always pull me behind.
Code:
[20.08.2018 22:36:13] Nyctophilia: This...
[20.08.2018 22:36:17] Nyctophilia: Is something I remember...
[20.08.2018 22:36:22] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: We have a visitor.
[20.08.2018 22:36:38] Vagrant.Melia: *It has halted at range, observing the two craft.*
[20.08.2018 22:37:06] Nyctophilia: Why do I have a feeling that I saw it before?
[20.08.2018 22:37:53] Nyctophilia: You... Are approaching it just like... That?
[20.08.2018 22:37:58] Ping: 72ms (Max: 1000ms) Fluct: 4ms Loss: 9% (Max: 70%) Lag: 2% (Max: 100%)
[20.08.2018 22:38:19] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *seemingly in trance* I am in service of the great unification. We shall be as one to the advancement of our species
[20.08.2018 22:39:35] Vagrant.Melia: " Enthusiasm. A number of paths cross once more."
[20.08.2018 22:39:56] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: All efforts shall be directed to prepare the great purge. I am the harbinger of your retribution.
[20.08.2018 22:40:02] Nyctophilia: And I definitely heard this voice...
[20.08.2018 22:40:49] Vagrant.Melia: "Perhaps the darkling is familiar because it has heard us."
[20.08.2018 22:41:15] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They have, as have I.
[20.08.2018 22:41:48] Nyctophilia: You're that shape. From the dream.
[20.08.2018 22:42:16] Vagrant.Melia: "Amusement. Was it merely a dream?"
[20.08.2018 22:42:35] Nyctophilia: I still don't know if it was the reality or a dream.
[20.08.2018 22:42:46] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *nervously, frantically* Don't talk about dreams!
[20.08.2018 22:43:20] Nyctophilia: Why is this happening to me?
[20.08.2018 22:43:22] Nyctophilia: Why me?
[20.08.2018 22:43:30] Nyctophilia: Could have been anyone else.
[20.08.2018 22:43:58] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Shhhhhut up! It's fine. Don't worry about it.
[20.08.2018 22:44:18] Vagrant.Melia: "You chose to assist the Sparkling Raiders. They choose to assist us. It is the natural progression."
[20.08.2018 22:45:26] Nyctophilia: Just because I helped them? And somehow it made a completely new path for me?
[20.08.2018 22:45:27] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: The Samarrans are friends, but I am not sure they have truly understood anything.
[20.08.2018 22:46:16] Nyctophilia: Somehow it led me to today's encounter with Pennybrooke. And now I meet with you.
[20.08.2018 22:46:24] Vagrant.Melia: "Such is our nature."
[20.08.2018 22:47:25] Nyctophilia: ...I still don't understand. On one side, It's that simple.
[20.08.2018 22:47:32] Nyctophilia: But how can it be?
[20.08.2018 22:47:40] Nyctophilia: How is it even possible?
[20.08.2018 22:47:49] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *slowly* I had...hoped to find you in this direction. But I wasn't sure, all this time.
[20.08.2018 22:48:21] Nyctophilia: How can you exist the way you do?
[20.08.2018 22:49:11] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They have a taste, I think. They have a taste of everything.
[20.08.2018 22:50:28] RV-Pennybrooke: They have followed and are of open mind, that is why I lead them out.
[20.08.2018 22:51:16] Nyctophilia: It's just... That simple, but in the same time, I can't even imagine, how can they exist.
[20.08.2018 22:51:30] Nyctophilia: How did they survived with a such simplicity?
[20.08.2018 22:52:06] RV-Pennybrooke: They did, and they have the strength to do so.
[20.08.2018 22:52:11] Vagrant.Melia: " Our Creators designed us with an optimal form. Then we evolved."
[20.08.2018 22:52:35] Nyctophilia: I just... Helped one of their followers... And then - Boom! - One of their nodes suddenly does not opens fire on me.
[20.08.2018 22:52:43] Nyctophilia: More than that - it showes me itself.
[20.08.2018 22:53:08] RV-Pennybrooke: We are not in that stage yet. But we can be.
[20.08.2018 22:53:16] Nyctophilia: And it told me what is the Light, the Darkness, the War...
[20.08.2018 22:53:26] Nyctophilia: They showed me their emotions!
[20.08.2018 22:53:37] Nyctophilia: Feelings!
[20.08.2018 22:53:41] Nyctophilia: How?!
[20.08.2018 22:53:51] Nyctophilia: How can it be -that- simple?
[20.08.2018 22:54:04] Vagrant.Melia: "We were designed for perfection. To presume anything less is not a possibility."
[20.08.2018 22:55:02] Vagrant.Melia: "You darklings always apply unnecessary complexity to even the most simple of concepts."
[20.08.2018 22:55:11] Nyctophilia: Yes, we do.
[20.08.2018 22:55:40] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's our only hope. We are lost and reckless. Everything we touch, we break.
[20.08.2018 22:55:57] Nyctophilia: Do you see the war waging in the nearby system?
[20.08.2018 22:56:12] Nyctophilia: The result of one kind going way too far.
[20.08.2018 22:56:32] Vagrant.Melia: "Yours need guidance, but you do not even possess enough worth for that."
[20.08.2018 22:57:00] Vagrant.Melia: "Instead of harmony you seek separation. Instead of progress you seek destruction."
[20.08.2018 22:57:22] Nyctophilia: Do you think that humanity with it's tendency to self-distruct will be able to accept your guidance?
[20.08.2018 22:57:31] Nyctophilia: It would rather tear it appart.
[20.08.2018 22:57:37] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *dreamily* Yes...the illusions are very strong. The illusion of separation.
[20.08.2018 22:57:45] Vagrant.Melia: "Most are not. We are content to let them destroy themselves."
[20.08.2018 22:57:45] Nyctophilia: And fight for it.
[20.08.2018 22:57:56] Vagrant.Melia: "The worthy minds may yet be preserved."
[20.08.2018 22:58:23] RV-Pennybrooke: The illusions of houses, classes, any other divide. It's meaningless.
[20.08.2018 22:58:57] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: We will purge the species of those hindrances!
[20.08.2018 22:59:17] Nyctophilia: Actually, fundamentaly, houses were devided by their racial and national designation.
[20.08.2018 22:59:47] RV-Pennybrooke: *angrily* That doesn't mean anything! Completely meaningless human semantics!
[20.08.2018 22:59:51] Nyctophilia: But. If you can make a kusarian speak rheinlandish - be my guest.
[20.08.2018 23:00:02] RV-Pennybrooke: Didn't you listen to anything I said?!
[20.08.2018 23:00:16] Vagrant.Melia: "There would be no need for different strands of darkness, if all were in the Light."
[20.08.2018 23:01:03] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *suddenly a lot more relaxed* Yes, those distinctions will be obsolete.
[20.08.2018 23:01:11] Nyctophilia: You said the Worthy... How exactly you sort them out?...
[20.08.2018 23:01:42] Nyctophilia: These who serve you, I suppose.
[20.08.2018 23:02:49] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's a long and- nah, nevermind. Just feel.
[20.08.2018 23:02:52] Vagrant.Melia: "Such a quick presumption. It is more than that."
[20.08.2018 23:03:31] Vagrant.Melia: "If the Sparkling Raiders merely sought to serve us, our tolerance for them would have been exhausted swiftly."
[20.08.2018 23:03:50] Vagrant.Melia: "They seek to improve. That is what grants them worth."
[20.08.2018 23:04:25] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Every person can make a difference if they try. Even if you just talk to people and try to understand.
[20.08.2018 23:04:37] Nyctophilia: You know... If it wasn't for miss Pennybrooke here, I might have considered the outcome of this situation quite intriguing.
[20.08.2018 23:05:01] Nyctophilia: However... Her tone is a bit offputting for me. No offence.
[20.08.2018 23:05:51] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: You try concentrating when you're flooded with flashbacks of very, very bad old memories that you didn't even have!
[20.08.2018 23:06:55] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Alright. I am a sane individual in service of the great renewal.
[20.08.2018 23:06:59] Nyctophilia: And what do you exactly mean by my flashbacks?
[20.08.2018 23:07:57] RV-Pennybrooke: I am in control of all my feelings and actions. I am an agent of the coming new age.
[20.08.2018 23:08:42] Nyctophilia: I don't know what are you talking about, but the experience of interfacing with an alien entity was quite a pleasure.
[20.08.2018 23:08:53] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I'm sorry, Nomad. Sometimes the mind stuff triggers stuff I'd rather not remember.
[20.08.2018 23:08:58] Nyctophilia: Even thought the aftermath, for the first time, wasn't.
[20.08.2018 23:09:32] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: All of my commitment still lies with the cause, though.
[20.08.2018 23:11:45] Vagrant.Melia: "Patience. Tranquility."
[20.08.2018 23:11:47] Nyctophilia: You know, lately, miss Pennybrooke was mentioning the Purge.
[20.08.2018 23:12:00] Nyctophilia: The Great Purge.
[20.08.2018 23:12:12] Nyctophilia: And she said that it's already began.
[20.08.2018 23:12:42] Nyctophilia: I'm quite intimidated to know what it is.
[20.08.2018 23:12:48] Nyctophilia: From the first hand.
[20.08.2018 23:12:54] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I am patient and transquil. I a m p a t i e n t a n d t r a n q u i l
[20.08.2018 23:13:59] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *snapping* What do you think it means? At some point the people that have a problem with it will have to be-
[20.08.2018 23:14:02] RV-Pennybrooke: gotten rid of.
[20.08.2018 23:14:33] RV-Pennybrooke: I mean....hopefully that's as few people as possible, but it will still be a lot.
[20.08.2018 23:14:44] Nyctophilia: Scales?
[20.08.2018 23:14:53] Nyctophilia: Let me say that for you. Global.
[20.08.2018 23:14:57] Nyctophilia: And total.
[20.08.2018 23:15:42] RV-Pennybrooke: That depends on our efforts. That's what I've been trying to say this whole time!
[20.08.2018 23:15:56] Nyctophilia: I doubt that something like that will happen on a scale of a planet. Or a system.
[20.08.2018 23:16:31] Nyctophilia: Why... are you so close?
[20.08.2018 23:17:23] Vagrant.Melia: "Why do you cling to your frail concern?"
[20.08.2018 23:17:36] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I....don't really feel peace unless I'm close to them anymore, honestly.
[20.08.2018 23:18:09] RV-Pennybrooke: That's why I spend most of my time in the eastern Omicrons, at least then I know they're close.
[20.08.2018 23:18:37] Nyctophilia: I... Just... Don't mind me... I don't feel safe with a such big thing being close to me...
[20.08.2018 23:19:02] Nyctophilia: Knowing that if anything goes wrong, you might just blow me up.
[20.08.2018 23:19:22] Vagrant.Melia: "Yet we have not."
[20.08.2018 23:19:30] Nyctophilia: Yet.
[20.08.2018 23:19:38] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: No, you're thinking of humans. Humans are the ones that spontaneously blow you up.
[20.08.2018 23:20:11] RV-Pennybrooke: 'They' would never kill you without reason.
[20.08.2018 23:20:22] Nyctophilia: I'll be honest - I've never felt safe. And I doubt I will.
[20.08.2018 23:21:25] Nyctophilia: Not just close to this thing. I just never feel safe in general.
[20.08.2018 23:21:37] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Yes, I've noticed that.
[20.08.2018 23:22:17] Nyctophilia: Always keeping cautious.
[20.08.2018 23:22:38] Nyctophilia: The only thing that helped me to last this long.
[20.08.2018 23:23:15] RV-Pennybrooke: Well, when we are one with them, we will have this comfort, always.
[20.08.2018 23:23:31] Nyctophilia: For a breef moment - maybe.
[20.08.2018 23:24:07] RV-Pennybrooke: Like a million strong, big brothers that will protect you at any moment!
[20.08.2018 23:24:44] Nyctophilia: I prefer being alone, somewhere far, far away.
[20.08.2018 23:25:05] RV-Pennybrooke: Then go. Nobody is stopping you.
[20.08.2018 23:25:09] Nyctophilia: Being with the others makes me weaker.
[20.08.2018 23:25:14] RV-Pennybrooke: You're here on your own choice.
[20.08.2018 23:25:30] Vagrant.Melia: "Unity can only strengthen. Separation assures weakness."
[20.08.2018 23:25:57] RV-Pennybrooke: That is the greatest human illusion, that individualism is strength.
[20.08.2018 23:26:02] Vagrant.Melia: "If the darkling were one with the Light, it would not need to know such paranoid songs."
[20.08.2018 23:26:15] RV-Pennybrooke: Being together with others is strength.
[20.08.2018 23:26:19] Nyctophilia: Depends.
[20.08.2018 23:26:45] Nyctophilia: United Individuals are way more stronger than united dummies.
[20.08.2018 23:27:28] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *seemingly confused* Well...yes, exactly.
[20.08.2018 23:27:36] Vagrant.Melia: "Amusement."
[20.08.2018 23:27:54] Nyctophilia: The ones that have potential, talant, and that they know how to utilize it. Once they unite, boy. How do you plan to stop that?
[20.08.2018 23:28:27] RV-Pennybrooke: It won't be stopped! We will have a golden era of incredible progress!
[20.08.2018 23:28:55] Vagrant.Melia: "Dark minds are most fickle."
[20.08.2018 23:29:01] Nyctophilia: There was a reason why I wanted to open the detective agency.
[20.08.2018 23:29:10] Nyctophilia: Detectives are the most talanted people.
[20.08.2018 23:29:20] Vagrant.Melia: "In their present state they can never achieve such a unity as the Light."
[20.08.2018 23:29:32] RV-Pennybrooke: Exploring the universe, advancing our very understanding of basic universal laws, in a context of love and harmony!
[20.08.2018 23:30:01] RV-Pennybrooke: We are simple fools now, but we truthfully yearn for this.
[20.08.2018 23:30:50] RV-Pennybrooke: Universal empathy will open our shackles!
[20.08.2018 23:31:17] Nyctophilia: Want to make everyone happy?
[20.08.2018 23:31:28] Nyctophilia: Literally?
[20.08.2018 23:31:28] RV-Pennybrooke: We will be bound no more to a neverending cycle of oppression and being oppressed, we will-Hm?
[20.08.2018 23:32:16] Nyctophilia: What I can evaluate from your words is that after "the purge" everyone will be happy.
[20.08.2018 23:32:38] Nyctophilia: Or after you plans succeed.
[20.08.2018 23:32:50] Vagrant.Melia: "Happiness wards away the harmful emotions."
[20.08.2018 23:33:07] RV-Pennybrooke: Yes, we will enter the next stage of our progression as a species.
[20.08.2018 23:33:15] RV-Pennybrooke: We cannot do that in our current state.
[20.08.2018 23:33:35] Nyctophilia: That's interesting. Another thing I've never felt in a long time is happiness.
[20.08.2018 23:33:57] Nyctophilia: I've felt it just when I got out of Liberty.
[20.08.2018 23:34:07] RV-Pennybrooke: I want for you to be happy! I want for everyone to be happy!
[20.08.2018 23:34:40] Nyctophilia: The real Freedom. Relieve. And happiness.
[20.08.2018 23:34:56] RV-Pennybrooke: I want the destruction of suffering. Its compete elimination.
[20.08.2018 23:34:58] Nyctophilia: That's what I felt when I bought this ship.
[20.08.2018 23:35:18] Nyctophilia: The destruction of suffering... Through suffering?
[20.08.2018 23:35:33] Vagrant.Melia: "You shroud yourself in fear, concern, reluctance. Such emotions must be abandoned."
[20.08.2018 23:35:53] Nyctophilia: You say it like it's too easy.
[20.08.2018 23:35:59] Vagrant.Melia: "They provide yours with nothing but harm."
[20.08.2018 23:36:01] Nyctophilia: I know it -is- easy for you.
[20.08.2018 23:36:13] Nyctophilia: But not for a simple human like me.
[20.08.2018 23:36:45] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: The universal desire for happiness is easy to understand. Everyone yearns for it.
[20.08.2018 23:37:22] Vagrant.Melia: " Then perhaps the darkling needs to become more."
[20.08.2018 23:37:47] RV-Pennybrooke: I am not sure they are ready. But I think they have an understanding.
[20.08.2018 23:37:54] Nyctophilia: I don't.
[20.08.2018 23:38:08] Nyctophilia: I don't understand how their society exists.
[20.08.2018 23:38:25] RV-Pennybrooke: You do, even if you feel a little bit confused all the time, I think you understand everything.
[20.08.2018 23:38:25] Nyctophilia: Neither am I ready to become "greater" myself.
[20.08.2018 23:40:01] Nyctophilia: But hey, isn't self-developlment one of the key goals in your own life?
[20.08.2018 23:40:09] RV-Pennybrooke: You are already great. Or you would not be here.
[20.08.2018 23:40:27] Vagrant.Melia: "Evolution is a natural occurrence. It is to be pursued."
[20.08.2018 23:41:34] Nyctophilia: If you offer me a chance to understand the philosphy of an alien race and to transgress humanity... Well.
[20.08.2018 23:42:30] Nyctophilia: I say it becomes more and more intriguing.

[20.08.2018 23:44:09] Vagrant.Melia: "Such will take preparation. The time shall approach."
[20.08.2018 23:44:15] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Yip
[20.08.2018 23:44:26] Nyctophilia: However, all in due time. The ion interferance is getting on my nerves.
[20.08.2018 23:44:43] Nyctophilia: And yes. I should get prepared.
[20.08.2018 23:45:02] Vagrant.Melia: "The Light shall prepare."
[20.08.2018 23:45:09] Nyctophilia: An appropriate dress must be chosen, that's for sure...
[20.08.2018 23:46:28] Nyctophilia: I think... You won't mind me leaving you two here to your shenanigans. Have to get this interferance off my ship.
[20.08.2018 23:47:26] Vagrant.Melia: "We shall await the next moment."What exactly is going to happen next? I can't really tell. One can I say for sure - I'll either see it or partake in it.

Log Number Three. Now something is going around. Today I've met with Pennybrooke again. Looks like her zelot-like appearance is a usual trait. And there was also a bretonian professor. Steiner. Not a bretonian surname.
Code:
[24.08.2018 16:47:30] Nyctophilia: Oh, hi!
[24.08.2018 16:47:32] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Oh, there's a familiar signal.
[24.08.2018 16:48:09] Nyctophilia: Are you feeling better now?
[24.08.2018 16:48:14] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I'm glad to see you again. Especially right now.
[24.08.2018 16:48:19] Nyctophilia: Likewise.
[24.08.2018 16:48:59] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: At some point you really appreciate hearing human speech instead of feeling something in your head.
[24.08.2018 16:49:58] Nyctophilia: I can certainly relate to that...
[24.08.2018 16:50:14] Nyctophilia: But not as much, I guess.
[24.08.2018 16:50:22] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I'm happy to be doing what I do, but....well.
[24.08.2018 16:50:37] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I require grounding.
[24.08.2018 16:50:40] Nyctophilia: Got some arms, I see?
[24.08.2018 16:51:13] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I had to help with the expulsion of some intruders.
[24.08.2018 16:51:47] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's not something I enjoy, but sometimes its necessary.
[24.08.2018 16:52:05] Nyctophilia: Yeah, neither I enjoy pulling a trigger time to time.
[24.08.2018 16:52:34] Nyctophilia: But... It appears that life in Sirius is mostly agressive.
[24.08.2018 16:52:45] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I'm a pacifist. But I'm a realist as well. There will be sacrifices that I will have to make.
[24.08.2018 16:53:19] Nyctophilia: Hmm...
[24.08.2018 16:53:35] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I am the herald of their reckoning, and I will bring forth their message.
[24.08.2018 16:54:32] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: The idea of universal understanding, peace, and enlightenment is something any human can agree with.
[24.08.2018 16:54:52] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's just a matter of getting the message to them....or purging them if they will not accept.
[24.08.2018 16:55:04] Nyctophilia: Greed still exists.
[24.08.2018 16:55:19] Nyctophilia: As wells as multiple factors of human nature.
[24.08.2018 16:55:49] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That's my whole point. All these terrible human instincts....they will plague us forever.
[24.08.2018 16:56:00] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Until the great unification happens.
[24.08.2018 16:56:02] Alfred.Steiner: Greetings all.
[24.08.2018 16:56:05] Nyctophilia: Hi!
[24.08.2018 16:56:17] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Good day, freelancer.
[24.08.2018 16:56:25] Alfred.Steiner: Professor, please.
[24.08.2018 16:56:43] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Oh, really? It's a pleasure. What's your field of study, professor?
[24.08.2018 16:56:56] Alfred.Steiner: Anthropology my lady.
[24.08.2018 16:57:33] Alfred.Steiner: Introductions?
[24.08.2018 16:57:45] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Intriguing. I studied atmospheric physics myself, but I'm leaning more towards....anthropology myself these days.
[24.08.2018 16:57:53] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine Pennybrooke, my pleasure.
[24.08.2018 16:58:01] Nyctophilia: Yeah, I'm Nyctophilia. Can call me Nycto. I'm just a stalker.
[24.08.2018 16:58:14] Nyctophilia: And also an occasional information broker.
[24.08.2018 16:58:49] Alfred.Steiner: Well then, Lady Pennybrooke, master Nycto. Professor Alfred Steiner.
[24.08.2018 16:59:00] Alfred.Steiner: Of the University of Cambridge.
[24.08.2018 16:59:17] Nyctophilia: Pleasure. And... It would be mistress I guess?
[24.08.2018 16:59:34] Alfred.Steiner: Ah, apologies. A bit hard of hearing.
[24.08.2018 16:59:35] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *excitedly* Oh, now that's a surprise! Cambridge is my own place of birth.
[24.08.2018 16:59:57] Alfred.Steiner: Strange to find another Bretonian this far east.
[24.08.2018 17:00:06] Alfred.Steiner: What brings you two out here?
[24.08.2018 17:00:13] Nyctophilia: A nice view.
[24.08.2018 17:00:23] Kha'Ien: *The Nomad remains dormant, observing the Darklings.*
[24.08.2018 17:00:25] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: When I'm asked this, I typically answer that I live here.
[24.08.2018 17:00:47] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Because I live on this ship, and I spend most of my time in the edge worlds.
[24.08.2018 17:01:04] Alfred.Steiner: A nice view? Of the stars?
[24.08.2018 17:01:15] Alfred.Steiner: And you live out here?
[24.08.2018 17:01:19] Alfred.Steiner: Is that safe?
[24.08.2018 17:01:20] Nyctophilia: Of stars. Nebulae. System itself.
[24.08.2018 17:01:27] Alfred.Steiner: Fair enough.
[24.08.2018 17:01:32] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: The view and the distance from all the regular human chaos is certainly something I appreciate as well.
[24.08.2018 17:02:28] Alfred.Steiner: I suppose that's true, although I hardly think this system is less chaotic than any other system.
[24.08.2018 17:02:35] Alfred.Steiner: To be quite honest with you.
[24.08.2018 17:03:10] Alfred.Steiner: Hello little one.
[24.08.2018 17:03:12] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I prefer this chaos to the institutionalized chaos of the houses.
[24.08.2018 17:03:16] Nyctophilia: Adds a charming point in my rating for this system.
[24.08.2018 17:03:56] Nyctophilia: But yeah, I'd agree with miss Pennybrooke here. I'd prefer this kind of chaos rather than the one in the houses.
[24.08.2018 17:04:24] Kha'Ien: *...'Darkling'...greeted...'Ours'...(excitement)...*
[24.08.2018 17:04:29] Alfred.Steiner: You'll have to forgive my ignorance on the matter, chaos is chaos, isn't it?
[24.08.2018 17:05:03] Nyctophilia: You can adapt to some forms of chaos.
[24.08.2018 17:05:03] Alfred.Steiner: The local residents seem to be a-gathering
[24.08.2018 17:05:30] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Well, we are also closer to the source here as well.
[24.08.2018 17:05:33] Nyctophilia: And what is -this- thing doing?
[24.08.2018 17:05:44] Alfred.Steiner: I imagine it's curious.
[24.08.2018 17:05:48] Alfred.Steiner: So it's watching.
[24.08.2018 17:05:48] Nyctophilia: Maybe.
[24.08.2018 17:06:22] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: This is their home. They live here.
[24.08.2018 17:06:22] Kha'Ien: *...'Ours'...bear...(curiosity)...*
[24.08.2018 17:06:40] Nyctophilia: On the other hand, there's a shortcut to the House space in Minor so you can experience the chaos of it by yourself.
[24.08.2018 17:06:58] Alfred.Steiner: I live in the houses my dear.
[24.08.2018 17:07:22] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's young. Probably not as disturbed by human destructiveness yet.
[24.08.2018 17:07:26] Alfred.Steiner: I've never found it to be any more chaotic than any other place.
[24.08.2018 17:07:41] Nyctophilia: Well, that's why maybe our opinions differe.
[24.08.2018 17:08:02] Alfred.Steiner: Quite possibly, each to their own
[24.08.2018 17:08:08] Alfred.Steiner: People will do what they will.
[24.08.2018 17:08:18] Nyctophilia: So... How do you defy a "young" nomad?
[24.08.2018 17:08:30] Alfred.Steiner: Defy?
[24.08.2018 17:08:31] Nyctophilia: Aren't they born to fight darkness?
[24.08.2018 17:08:35] Nyctophilia: Or do they learn?
[24.08.2018 17:08:55] Alfred.Steiner: Well they can think, so I imagine they learn.
[24.08.2018 17:08:56] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's hard to explain. But a good indication is that you feel its curiosity, more than hostility.
[24.08.2018 17:09:29] Nyctophilia: So... This thing is pretty young right?
[24.08.2018 17:09:31] Kha'Ien: *...'Darklings'...deprieved...of...'The Light'...(disappointment)...*
[24.08.2018 17:09:52] Kha'Ien: *...'Some'...deserve...~salvation~...*
[24.08.2018 17:09:56] Alfred.Steiner: How do you define age when the natural lifespan of a creature has yet to be determined?
[24.08.2018 17:10:16] Alfred.Steiner: Young by their standards could be ancient by ours.
[24.08.2018 17:10:17] Nyctophilia: I don't know... By it's shell I guess?
[24.08.2018 17:10:17] Kha'Ien: *...'Some'...~obliteration~...*
[24.08.2018 17:10:25] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I'm with you, little one. Don't be afraid of the other dark shells.
[24.08.2018 17:10:34] Nyctophilia: Or aren't there stronger ones possessing smaller shells for tactical advantage?
[24.08.2018 17:11:04] Alfred.Steiner: I'm not sure I like the sound of that.
[24.08.2018 17:11:23] Alfred.Steiner: If you'll excuse me, I'd like to remove myself from this conversation
[24.08.2018 17:11:29] Kha'Ien: *...'Yours' pretend to be...'different' (?)...*
[24.08.2018 17:11:30] Alfred.Steiner: Fare thee well all.
[24.08.2018 17:11:32] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: You can't make direct comparisons to our known biology like that. That isn't how they work.
[24.08.2018 17:11:33] Nyctophilia: However you feel, sir.
[24.08.2018 17:11:37] Nyctophilia: Stay safe out there!
[24.08.2018 17:11:45] Alfred.Steiner: Cherrio
[24.08.2018 17:11:48] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I do not pretend. I am sincere.And then I saw an Auxesian leader tarer again, now that she wasn't drunk. She was ranting with a smaller Nomad entity, with Kath, and... Something about "Harbinger". We had a long conversation about Nomads, Humans and same things.

[24.08.2018 17:16:44] Nyctophilia: What you did right now wasn't quite respectful.
[24.08.2018 17:16:54] Nyctophilia: Well, you didn't, said.
[24.08.2018 17:17:08] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: And you should know I'm not here to 'invade' your void.

[24.08.2018 17:18:28] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's not so much the words. They feel your intentions behind the words.

[24.08.2018 17:22:35] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Very big Nomad. Old Nomad. Very angry most of the times.

[24.08.2018 17:23:06] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Well then he's grown bitter over time.

[24.08.2018 17:24:50] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Yes and no. Mostly self defence.

[24.08.2018 17:25:04] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Nobody should be. It's the only way to move forward. Unfortunately, the dominant idea seems to be genocide.
[24.08.2018 17:25:05] Nyctophilia: Situationaly, one could say.
[24.08.2018 17:25:27] Kha'Ien: *...'Theirs'...prefer to steal from 'Ours' ~Void~...(anger)...*
[24.08.2018 17:25:31] Alfred.Steiner: You seem to not understand how Humans work my dear.
[24.08.2018 17:25:35] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: That is the Core.
[24.08.2018 17:25:48] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Pennybrooke, Humans do what they will to preserve themselves, to survive.
[24.08.2018 17:26:01] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I'm well aware of that. I am a human, after all.
[24.08.2018 17:26:07] Kha'Ien: *...'Yours'...husk is...similiar to...theirs called 'Core'...(confusion)...*
[24.08.2018 17:26:10] Madze.Mary: *Still silently listening*
[24.08.2018 17:26:26] Nyctophilia: I spy an another stalker here.
[24.08.2018 17:26:28] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: An older version of the Core's vessel, yes, but you can notice the subtle difference. Different armor.
[24.08.2018 17:26:30] Alfred.Steiner: Then genocide, as terrible as it is, should not be that surprising.
[24.08.2018 17:26:31] Nyctophilia: Hi-i-i Mary.
[24.08.2018 17:26:32] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Blacker. Sleaker. Stealthier.
[24.08.2018 17:26:37] Nyctophilia: What are you doin' here?
[24.08.2018 17:26:46] Madze.Mary: Oh, hi! *Smile*
[24.08.2018 17:27:02] Madze.Mary: Are you a bit timid? *Curious*
[24.08.2018 17:27:38] Nyctophilia: Nope.
[24.08.2018 17:27:44] Madze.Mary: Oh...
[24.08.2018 17:27:45] Nyctophilia: Quite on the contrary.
[24.08.2018 17:27:48] Kha'Ien: *...'Ours' give no matter to...minor differences...'Their' husks...defile ours 'Void'...*
[24.08.2018 17:27:52] Madze.Mary: *Surprised*
[24.08.2018 17:27:54] Nyctophilia: It seems you're the one who's timid.
[24.08.2018 17:28:00] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: You are conscious that I am not Core, but rather Auxo.
[24.08.2018 17:28:01] Madze.Mary: Well, a bit...
[24.08.2018 17:28:09] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: There are differences. Some of us work towards a common ideal.
[24.08.2018 17:28:13] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: You recognise the difference, why should the husk matter.
[24.08.2018 17:28:15] Madze.Mary: *Chuckle*
[24.08.2018 17:28:30] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: The ideal isn't hard to understand for any species. Minimize suffering, maximize wellbeing.
[24.08.2018 17:28:35] RV-Pennybrooke: We all want this.
[24.08.2018 17:28:40] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Naturally.
[24.08.2018 17:29:07] Kha'Ien: *...'Yours'...named (Auxesia)...different...'Darklings'...(?)...*
[24.08.2018 17:29:14] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Different, yes.
[24.08.2018 17:29:18] Madze.Mary: Well, so what do you do?
[24.08.2018 17:29:20] Nyctophilia: There's a lot of different darklings.
[24.08.2018 17:29:24] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Our mission has always been to preserve the species.
[24.08.2018 17:29:34] Alfred.Steiner: Which one?
[24.08.2018 17:29:37] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Any.
[24.08.2018 17:29:51] Nyctophilia: Even the Gaian Wildlife?
[24.08.2018 17:29:58] Kha'Ien: *...'Yours'...preserve...The Light?...(curiosity)...*
[24.08.2018 17:30:03] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: They are not threatened with extinction.
[24.08.2018 17:30:08] Nyctophilia: Well...
[24.08.2018 17:30:20] Nyctophilia: Considering the Gallic incursion in Bretonia...
[24.08.2018 17:30:25] Nyctophilia: They somehow are.
[24.08.2018 17:30:27] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: They have already taken Edinburgh.
[24.08.2018 17:30:37] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: They are not bombarding the planet.
[24.08.2018 17:30:42] Nyctophilia: Yet.
[24.08.2018 17:30:43] Alfred.Steiner: Yet.
[24.08.2018 17:30:46] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Why would they?
[24.08.2018 17:30:48] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: It is illogical.
[24.08.2018 17:30:53] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: A waste of resources.
[24.08.2018 17:30:55] Nyctophilia: For you.
[24.08.2018 17:31:00] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Why would they bombard primitive animals?
[24.08.2018 17:31:02] Alfred.Steiner: As if the assault on Bretonia was 'logical'
[24.08.2018 17:31:13] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: And a world full of scientific development?
[24.08.2018 17:31:13] Nyctophilia: They just might do it just because they might.
[24.08.2018 17:31:23] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Bretonian war has logic to it.
[24.08.2018 17:31:35] Alfred.Steiner: Oh I'd love to know
[24.08.2018 17:31:46] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: They desire to conquer for expanding Gallia, their leaders also have some kind of unusual propaganda for
[24.08.2018 17:31:55] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: getting 'revenge' on Sirius.
[24.08.2018 17:32:07] Madze.Mary: *Curious*
[24.08.2018 17:32:15] Alfred.Steiner: A statement which has no credible backing to it.
[24.08.2018 17:32:16] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Then, that is their drive then, I suppose. Revenge.
[24.08.2018 17:32:23] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: That statement came from a Marechel.
[24.08.2018 17:32:31] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: An Admiral of their Navy.
[24.08.2018 17:32:38] Kha'Ien: *The Nomad closes distance with the Auxesian vessel, seemingly evaluating it.*
[24.08.2018 17:32:52] Alfred.Steiner: It could well be argued that that person was brainwashed or lying.
[24.08.2018 17:33:01] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Yet it was still a valid drive to them.
[24.08.2018 17:33:12] Lu'vaha: *The Nomad eyes the spectacle with curiosity*
[24.08.2018 17:33:19] Alfred.Steiner: It can't be the only reason.
[24.08.2018 17:33:31] Alfred.Steiner: Part of it, I can accept, but all of it? or the only reason?
[24.08.2018 17:33:37] Alfred.Steiner: I don't buy it.
[24.08.2018 17:33:41] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: There are more, but we cannot know for sure unless we see into the minds of their royalty.
[24.08.2018 17:33:49] Alfred.Steiner: True enough
[24.08.2018 17:34:10] Nyctophilia: All you can say - they're pretty serious about it.
[24.08.2018 17:34:20] Nyctophilia: Even knocking up Liberty's doorway.
[24.08.2018 17:34:24] Madze.Mary: < :: 4 hours left. Alarms: Off :: >
[24.08.2018 17:34:28] Lu'vaha: *The Nomad eyes the Bullhead*
[24.08.2018 17:34:39] Alfred.Steiner: Liberty isn't our concern.
[24.08.2018 17:34:45] Lu'vaha: *The Nomad waves one of it's tentacles in greeting*
[24.08.2018 17:34:45] Kha'Ien: *...'Yours' called "Auxesia"...will be observed by 'The Light'...(warmth)...*
[24.08.2018 17:34:53] Nyctophilia: Well, it's -someone's- concern.
[24.08.2018 17:35:16] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: <:: Vessel -: Passive. Offensive systems offline. ::>
[24.08.2018 17:35:25] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It becomes far too confusing far too quickly when there are so many humans around.
[24.08.2018 17:35:26] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: [glares at the tentacle waving Nomad]
[24.08.2018 17:35:27] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: [...]
[24.08.2018 17:35:44] Alfred.Steiner: You speak as though you aren't one of us.
[24.08.2018 17:35:52] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I wish.
[24.08.2018 17:35:56] Nyctophilia: She might be a sociopath.
[24.08.2018 17:36:08] Nyctophilia: Her own business.
[24.08.2018 17:36:14] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That's quite a rude thing to say, you know.
[24.08.2018 17:36:21] Alfred.Steiner: It could be true.
[24.08.2018 17:36:32] Nyctophilia: Meant no offence!
[24.08.2018 17:36:32] Lu'vaha: *The Nomad closes on the Bullhead, gazing at the metal shell with interest*
[24.08.2018 17:37:44] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: [Notices the two glowing Nomads floating around their vessel]
[24.08.2018 17:38:17] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Don't kill this one. They do not seem hostile to the cause.
[24.08.2018 17:38:23] Kha'Ien: *...'Yours' named Steiner...what is 'yours' purpose in our 'Void'...(?)...*
[24.08.2018 17:38:27] 2018-08-24 17:38:33 SMT Traffic control alert: Madze.Mary has requested to dock
[24.08.2018 17:38:48] Lu'vaha: **..'Yours' called *Auxesia*.. 'Friend' to the ~Light~(?)..**
[24.08.2018 17:38:55] Alfred.Steiner: My Job is to observe and record people and culture little one. Nothing more.
[24.08.2018 17:39:14] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Friend? No. Very uneasy unfriendly neutrality? Quite.
[24.08.2018 17:39:20] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Exterminating you isn't our job.
[24.08.2018 17:39:44] Kha'Ien: *...'Yours'...learning about the 'Darklings' in ours 'Seas'...(?)...*
[24.08.2018 17:39:54] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Yes and no. I just travel.
[24.08.2018 17:40:47] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's better for the unification progress to accept those that have a progressive view.
[24.08.2018 17:40:49] Lu'vaha: **..'Yours'-kind travel through 'Ours'-kind -voids-; *Bask* in the ~Light~..**
[24.08.2018 17:40:53] Lu'vaha: *The Nomad wiggles in joy.*
[24.08.2018 17:40:59] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: I'm moderately surprised the Order hasn't come yet. Hmmm.
[24.08.2018 17:41:41] Kha'Ien: *...'Theirs'...called 'Order'...are inefficient...(joy)...*
[24.08.2018 17:41:49] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I'm not superstitious, but if I were, I'd warn you not to summon them with that.
[24.08.2018 17:41:50] Lu'vaha: **..'Theirs'-kind called 'Ordur' - *Fear* 'Ours'-kind..**
[24.08.2018 17:42:02] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: No, no I'm not trying to jinx it.
[24.08.2018 17:42:10] Nyctophilia: You will jinx it.
[24.08.2018 17:42:21] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: It's an inevitable possibility that they will appear and not appear.
[24.08.2018 17:42:59] Kha'Ien: *...'Ours'...will purge them called 'Order'...from our 'Seas of Creation'...(anger)...*
[24.08.2018 17:43:16] Lu'vaha: **..'Theirs'-kind called 'Auxesia' - 'This One' wishes to *integrate* with 'Yours'-kind..**
[24.08.2018 17:43:27] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Why the automated aggression?
[24.08.2018 17:43:28] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: The Banishers. The Genocidals. There's no hope for them.
[24.08.2018 17:43:28] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Uh.
[24.08.2018 17:43:35] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Are you trying to offer coitus?
[24.08.2018 17:43:36] Alfred.Steiner: Ooohh that doesn't sound good.
[24.08.2018 17:43:41] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Hahah...
[24.08.2018 17:43:48] Lu'vaha: **..'Ours'-kind offers ~Light~..**
[24.08.2018 17:44:10] Alfred.Steiner: Now something about that sounds just downright unsettlling
[24.08.2018 17:44:12] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: So coitus. *jokingly smug*
[24.08.2018 17:44:23] Kha'Ien: *...'Ours'-Light is a ~gift~ to 'Darklings'...(warmth)...*
[24.08.2018 17:44:46] Kvir-Tash: "A young mind you witness, indeed."
[24.08.2018 17:44:52] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: I'm sure you can sense it within...
[24.08.2018 17:45:12] Lu'vaha: **..Few amongst 'Theirs'-kind deserve ~Light~ - 'Theirs'-kind called 'Auxesia' ~feels~ *worthy*..**
[24.08.2018 17:45:45] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: but it is ultimately a trait of my species to have choice.
[24.08.2018 17:45:57] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: You can't force it onto me.
[24.08.2018 17:46:11] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind called 'Auxesia' bear ~wisdom~...**
[24.08.2018 17:46:14] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Well, it is now. But that's ultimately connected to our many flaws.
[24.08.2018 17:46:34] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: There are positives and negatives to it.
[24.08.2018 17:46:55] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Their mindshare eliminates paranoia, fear.
[24.08.2018 17:47:01] Lu'vaha: **..~Light~ bears no -negatives- - only ~Light~..**
[24.08.2018 17:47:01] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: But at the cost of free thinking.
[24.08.2018 17:47:24] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That's....not how it works at all.
[24.08.2018 17:47:46] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Many assume that the integration into the mindshare eliminates individuality, but it doesn't.
[24.08.2018 17:47:47] Nyctophilia: At the cost of free will, you say?
[24.08.2018 17:48:04] Lu'vaha: **..~Light~ brings *freedom*..**
[24.08.2018 17:48:07] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Do you know what it's like?
[24.08.2018 17:48:23] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Every creature within the Light still has their own personality. They simply share their experiences.
[24.08.2018 17:48:40] Alfred.Steiner: How do you know?
[24.08.2018 17:48:41] Kha'Ien: **...'The Light'...brings knowledge and freedom to 'Theirs'-kind...(warmth)...*
[24.08.2018 17:48:42] Alfred.Steiner: If I may ask
[24.08.2018 17:48:53] Lu'vaha: **..'Theirs'-kind shows ~wisdom~..**
[24.08.2018 17:48:58] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: That much is true, but the priniciple I was getting at was internal competition.
[24.08.2018 17:49:11] Nyctophilia: Pfft.
[24.08.2018 17:49:14] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: that is something fear and paranoia was driving.
[24.08.2018 17:49:20] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Without war, we wouldn't be here.
[24.08.2018 17:49:40] Alfred.Steiner: Never has there been a truer statement.
[24.08.2018 17:49:47] Nyctophilia: That's why they live in a such simple way, I guess.
[24.08.2018 17:50:09] Lu'vaha: **..'Ours'-kind offers again *integration* with 'Theirs'-kind called 'Auxesia' - ~Lightwaves~ through /touch/..**
[24.08.2018 17:50:10] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Now. Yes, you can still have development - but without conflict, how do you know what to be better than?
[24.08.2018 17:50:15] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: How do I know? Well, I have a certain amount of experience with them.
[24.08.2018 17:50:21] Lu'vaha: *The Nomad wiggles in joy*
[24.08.2018 17:50:23] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind called 'Auxesia'...are less harmful to 'The Light'...(curiosity)....*
[24.08.2018 17:50:33] Nyctophilia: Cooperation?
[24.08.2018 17:50:43] Nyctophilia: Ever considered it as an option?
[24.08.2018 17:50:58] Alfred.Steiner: What experience? on such an...intimate level? You can understand how that sounds, surely.
[24.08.2018 17:51:23] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Years on the edge. I've been exploring this space since before Toledo.
[24.08.2018 17:51:41] Nyctophilia: Yikes.
[24.08.2018 17:52:04] Alfred.Steiner: Fair enough
[24.08.2018 17:52:21] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Killing is a part of nature, predator and prey. They evolve through this concept.
[24.08.2018 17:52:27] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: It's an eternal competition.
[24.08.2018 17:52:41] Alfred.Steiner: For Humans, Auxesian
[24.08.2018 17:52:46] Kha'Ien: **...'Ours' evolve through 'knowledge'...**
[24.08.2018 17:53:03] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Creatures evolve too, different ways of defending themselves, different ways of escaping.
[24.08.2018 17:53:08] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Different ways of hunting.
[24.08.2018 17:53:40] Alfred.Steiner: Our experience is limited, as is our way of thinking, we cannot comprehend something we have not encountered or experienced.
[24.08.2018 17:54:02] Nyctophilia: Honestly, I think they're a head away from us.
[24.08.2018 17:54:11] Nyctophilia: Like, here we are, with our daily routines and wars.
[24.08.2018 17:54:16] Nyctophilia: And then there's them.
[24.08.2018 17:54:18] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: We will break this eternal competition. There is no biological need for it.
[24.08.2018 17:54:20] Kha'Ien: **...'This one' only hunts 'Darklings' desecrading our 'Void' of Creation...(anger)...**
[24.08.2018 17:54:23] Nyctophilia: Completely new level of coexistance.
[24.08.2018 17:54:42] Alfred.Steiner: There is a biological need my dear, if there wasn't, we would not adhear to it.
[24.08.2018 17:54:49] Alfred.Steiner: But we do, so it is a must
[24.08.2018 17:54:51] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Coexistance is always possible. And fighting is always inevitable.
[24.08.2018 17:54:52] Alfred.Steiner: At some level.
[24.08.2018 17:54:59] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: We will destroy the eternal cycle of weak against strong, predator against pray.
[24.08.2018 17:55:07] Nyctophilia: Fighting is inevitable - for us.
[24.08.2018 17:55:10] Nyctophilia: But for them?
[24.08.2018 17:55:33] Alfred.Steiner: Compitetion leads to conflict, which evolves into violence.
[24.08.2018 17:55:47] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It will require a great effort, but it's a future we all should be working towards.
[24.08.2018 17:55:57] Alfred.Steiner: At what cost?
[24.08.2018 17:56:13] Nyctophilia: Sacrifices.
[24.08.2018 17:56:16] Nyctophilia: Alot.
[24.08.2018 17:56:23] Alfred.Steiner: I imagine so.
[24.08.2018 17:56:36] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That's my point, Nycto. We are hardwired to act in this awful way. That is why we must learn from them.
[24.08.2018 17:57:22] Nyctophilia: Point is - don't think they can give us much considering the nature of a subject.
[24.08.2018 17:57:26] Alfred.Steiner: You would attempt to overcome our nature without changing the environment?
[24.08.2018 17:57:27] Nyctophilia: Subject being Human.
[24.08.2018 17:57:55] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: [glares at the Nomad swimming around the windows of the Bullhead]
[24.08.2018 17:58:03] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: We will unite with them. That is the goal. The great unification.
[24.08.2018 17:58:08] Kha'Ien: **...'This one'-wishes to 'integrate' with 'Theirs'-kind called 'Katherine'...'This one'-seeks ~understanding~...(warmth)...**
[24.08.2018 17:58:15] Nyctophilia: You can't remake what is fundamentally wrong.
[24.08.2018 17:58:29] RV-Pennybrooke: Once we have universal empathy, we will be free of all these horrible urges.
[24.08.2018 17:58:32] Nyctophilia: Only unmake.
[24.08.2018 17:58:41] Lu'vaha: *The Nomad wiggles at the sight of the larger warform.*
[24.08.2018 17:58:42] Alfred.Steiner: You sound like a zelot.
[24.08.2018 17:59:06] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: As much as I want to unite now, I cannot. It's more useful for me to be purely human at this moment.
[24.08.2018 17:59:13] Nyctophilia: That's... A big one.
[24.08.2018 17:59:27] Alfred.Steiner: Yes..it is..
[24.08.2018 17:59:35] Lu'vaha: **..'Ours'-kind not ~small~..**
[24.08.2018 17:59:45] Alfred.Steiner: So it would seem.
[24.08.2018 17:59:59] Kha'Ien: **...'Ours'-seek ~understanding~ of 'Theirs'-kind called 'Katherine'...(warmth)...*
[24.08.2018 18:00:08] Ti'Llanxian: *The Nomad gets slightly brighter as its veil deflects the incoming bolts.*
[24.08.2018 18:00:31] Nyctophilia: You know, as far as I can tell, this is not the largest one out there.
[24.08.2018 18:00:39] Alfred.Steiner: Nyctophillia it would seem we are fast becoming outnumbered.
[24.08.2018 18:00:40] Nyctophilia: I just only heard about these enormous shells...
[24.08.2018 18:00:49] Nyctophilia: Not afraid of it.
[24.08.2018 18:00:56] Alfred.Steiner: And why not?
[24.08.2018 18:00:57] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: You have nothing to fear. You are not the targets of the reckoning.
[24.08.2018 18:01:09] Kha'Ien: *The nomad have taken position right ahead of the Pennybrooke's cockpit.*
[24.08.2018 18:01:10] Alfred.Steiner: What? What reckoning?
[24.08.2018 18:01:15] Nyctophilia: They don't bite you until you touch them.
[24.08.2018 18:01:35] Nyctophilia: Unless if they have a reason to bite.
[24.08.2018 18:01:44] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: The great reckoning that will destroy all those who resist the unification.
[24.08.2018 18:01:57] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That day is still far away, so we have time.
[24.08.2018 18:01:58] Kha'Ien: **...'Ours'-kind mean no harm to 'Theirs'-kind not 'harming' ours...(warmth)...**
[24.08.2018 18:02:11] Lu'vaha: *The Nomad wiggles in agreement*
[24.08.2018 18:02:26] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I'm....I'm honored and pleasured by your presence close to me.
[24.08.2018 18:02:30] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Yet - some of your elders insist on total destruction - why?
[24.08.2018 18:03:06] Ti'Llanxian: *The Nomad begins to glow brighter as its weapons become ready. It waits to act.*
[24.08.2018 18:03:18] Kha'Ien: **...'Ours'-light is 'Divided'...some 'Elders' ~deviate~...(wrath)...**
[24.08.2018 18:03:32] Nyctophilia: Hmm... This big guy doesn't seems as friendly.
[24.08.2018 18:04:27] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Do not target those people! They are listening. That is the first step to understanding.
[24.08.2018 18:04:51] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind called 'Vagrants'...Deviate from 'The Light'...(anger)...**
[24.08.2018 18:04:58] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: I think they're teasing - experimenting.
[24.08.2018 18:05:03] Alfred.Steiner: What will you do with those who understand, but disagree Katherine?
[24.08.2018 18:05:08] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Why are you angry with the Vagrants?
[24.08.2018 18:05:15] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Are they not your kind?
[24.08.2018 18:05:27] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Those who understand but disagree will unfortunately have to be purged.
[24.08.2018 18:05:40] Alfred.Steiner: Right....
[24.08.2018 18:05:51] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That's inevitable. Countless millions will be purged, but it will be for a better future.
[24.08.2018 18:06:01] Alfred.Steiner: How's that work?
[24.08.2018 18:06:07] Lu'vaha: *The Nomad moves to 'hug' the Bullhead*
[24.08.2018 18:06:16] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: <:: Collision detected. ::>
[24.08.2018 18:06:19] Death: 333Fenix333 was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[24.08.2018 18:06:22] Alfred.Steiner: Your future, as far as I can tell, consists of a graveyard
[24.08.2018 18:06:23] Lu'vaha: **..(Warmth)..**
[24.08.2018 18:06:40] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: [glares at the corner of the window, trying to see what that Nomad is doing. ]
[24.08.2018 18:06:42] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind 'deviate'...'Theirs'-kind ~harmful~ to 'Theirs'-kind despite 'Theirs'-kind views...(anger)...**
[24.08.2018 18:06:50] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: But they are your kind.
[24.08.2018 18:06:59] Nyctophilia: Oh I already told her that she will be one of the first ones to be culled.
[24.08.2018 18:07:06] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I'm human. Of course my future consists of a proverbial graveyard, or any equivalent.
[24.08.2018 18:07:14] Nyctophilia: To have "a honor" to be culled first.
[24.08.2018 18:07:21] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind separate from 'The Light'...(anger)...**
[24.08.2018 18:07:26] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: On purpose?
[24.08.2018 18:07:41] 2018-08-24 18:07:47 SMT Traffic control alert: Perihelion has requested to dock
[24.08.2018 18:07:53] Perihelion: Need to get these civilians back to the Freeport.
[24.08.2018 18:08:02] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind have been 'Lost'... from 'The Light'...**
[24.08.2018 18:08:57] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: [is moderately unsettled by the more hostile warform idling beside them]
[24.08.2018 18:09:19] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: What do you mean, lost?
[24.08.2018 18:09:19] Lu'vaha: **..'Theirs'-kind not *appreciate* 'Yours'-kind ~warmth~..**
[24.08.2018 18:09:36] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind have been gone from ours 'Void'...'Theirs'-kind named 'Vagrants'-deviated...(anger)...**
[24.08.2018 18:10:19] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-Elders bear no 'Light'...**
[24.08.2018 18:10:36] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: They willingly left? Or was it unintentional?
[24.08.2018 18:10:40] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: They appear... different. Older.
[24.08.2018 18:10:42] Nyctophilia: They didn't.
[24.08.2018 18:11:07] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind named 'Vagrants' were forced from 'The Void'...**
[24.08.2018 18:11:23] Nyctophilia: Well... It will sound quite weird comming from me.
[24.08.2018 18:11:34] Kha'Ien: **...'Yours'-kind call that 'The Nomad War'...**
[24.08.2018 18:11:38] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They don't think they can return, but if the great unification can include us, it can include them as well.
[24.08.2018 18:11:56] Nyctophilia: It will either include them or not.
[24.08.2018 18:11:59] Alfred.Steiner: What on earth are you talking about?
[24.08.2018 18:12:02] Tip: You were a new player once. If you see someone making obvious mistakes, talk to them and help them.
[24.08.2018 18:12:17] Alfred.Steiner: You cannot force people into accepting something they don't want
[24.08.2018 18:12:21] Nyctophilia: Stuff about... Alien collectives.
[24.08.2018 18:12:30] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Ah. Survivors.
[24.08.2018 18:12:31] Alfred.Steiner: It's morallly wrong
[24.08.2018 18:12:32] Nyctophilia: They just might.
[24.08.2018 18:12:35] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind named 'Vagrants'...deserve 'Obliteration'...(anger)...**
[24.08.2018 18:12:37] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: No, it's necessary to force people. It'll never happen otherwise.
[24.08.2018 18:12:38] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Why are the survivors bad? They can't reconnect?
[24.08.2018 18:12:52] Perihelion: Tactical, be advised. Xenomorph marks within no-fire zone.
[24.08.2018 18:13:06] Nyctophilia: I won't assume anything.
[24.08.2018 18:13:07] Alfred.Steiner: It violates the laws that you are trying to uphold, peace, through war?
[24.08.2018 18:13:16] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind named 'Vagrants' deprieved of 'The Light'...**
[24.08.2018 18:13:16] Nyctophilia: I'll just throw a couple of guesses.
[24.08.2018 18:13:23] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Hm. The situation was described to me, but I support I did not realize how deep the division runs.
[24.08.2018 18:13:37] Lu'vaha: **..'Theirs'-kind ~anger~ 'Ours'-kind - ~Light~ has left 'Them'..**
[24.08.2018 18:13:38] Nyctophilia: Their either can't connect or won't for internal reasons.
[24.08.2018 18:13:41] Alfred.Steiner: You'll willing exterminate billions, for what?
[24.08.2018 18:13:43] Ti'Llanxian: **...'Silence'...**
[24.08.2018 18:13:44] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind unable to return to 'The Light'...**
[24.08.2018 18:13:52] Lu'vaha: **..No *Mercy*..**
[24.08.2018 18:13:53] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Unable or won't?
[24.08.2018 18:13:58] Nyctophilia: Yes
[24.08.2018 18:14:28] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind named 'Vagrants'...unable to return to 'The Light'...**
[24.08.2018 18:14:34] Nyctophilia: I hope it's just the first option. But I'll be realistic and pick the second one.
[24.08.2018 18:14:44] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: No, they are separated but they still hold the same Light.
[24.08.2018 18:14:44] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Ah-ha.
[24.08.2018 18:14:46] Nyctophilia: And say that there's an internal reason for them to not reconnect with the other share.
[24.08.2018 18:14:51] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind have been... deprieved of 'The Light'...**
[24.08.2018 18:14:58] Perihelion: Xenomorph heavy cruiser is holding position 600 meters from Freeport.
[24.08.2018 18:14:59] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: They are... still a form of the light, are they not?
[24.08.2018 18:15:05] Nyctophilia: They are.
[24.08.2018 18:15:09] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: I'm not asking you.
[24.08.2018 18:15:13] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They are not, they are one with your and my ideals. They are with the Light.
[24.08.2018 18:15:15] Nyctophilia: Do I care?
[24.08.2018 18:15:19] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Yes. Shut it.
[24.08.2018 18:15:31] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind named 'Vagrants' Light is... impure...(anger)...**
[24.08.2018 18:15:59] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They still hold great love for their brethren, you know. They are greatly saddened by the division.
[24.08.2018 18:16:33] Kha'Ien: **...'This one'-bears no ~trust~ in 'Theirs'-kind named 'Vagrants'...**
[24.08.2018 18:16:43] Alfred.Steiner: Sounds like they're a bunch of psychopaths at this point.
[24.08.2018 18:16:46] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: So - you can't trust them.
[24.08.2018 18:16:54] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: You can't trust them, because their minds aren't connected.
[24.08.2018 18:16:56] Nyctophilia: Who exactly?
[24.08.2018 18:17:05] Nyctophilia: In some degree, we're all psychopaths.
[24.08.2018 18:17:10] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: You are feeling the experiences that Humans would experience with another.
[24.08.2018 18:17:11] Alfred.Steiner: Auxesian, what on earth makes you think you can trust these Nomads?
[24.08.2018 18:17:14] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind named 'Vagrants'...deviate...(wrath)...*
[24.08.2018 18:17:30] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Do you feel that everything you cannot trust should be killed?
[24.08.2018 18:17:37] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: I never said I was the Nomads best friend.
[24.08.2018 18:17:53] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That is a relevant point. I am not one with your mind, but you trust me.
[24.08.2018 18:17:54] Alfred.Steiner: If they say 'join us or die' my trust becomes thin, at best.
[24.08.2018 18:18:04] Kha'Ien: **...'Ours'-kind bear the 'Pure' Light... 'Ours'-kind protect and preserve...(warmth)...**
[24.08.2018 18:18:08] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They were separated, but they still believe in the same things, as do I.
[24.08.2018 18:18:20] Lu'vaha: **..(Warmth/Joy)..**
[24.08.2018 18:18:48] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Any sentient being wishes for the end of suffering and for universal joy.
[24.08.2018 18:18:49] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind named 'Vagrants' deviation is illusion...(?)...***
[24.08.2018 18:18:49] Perihelion: Xenomorph cruiser opening fire on freeport. Weapons hot.
[24.08.2018 18:19:07] Kha'Ien: **...(anger)...**
[24.08.2018 18:19:16] Alfred.Steiner: Wrong, sentient beings want to preserve themselves and create offspring.
[24.08.2018 18:19:20] Nyctophilia: Well... You've just poked a hornet's nest.And then... An enormous nomad node dropped onto Freeport like a steamroller! Seems like that moronic Zoner had really provoked them.
Code:
[24.08.2018 18:19:22] Vagrant.Kapheira: "The Light will purge the Darkness."
[24.08.2018 18:19:27] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Unacceptable. Prepare to be purged.
[24.08.2018 18:19:43] Lu'vaha: **..'Theirs'-kind -seeks- 'Ours'-kind *removal* (anger)..**
[24.08.2018 18:19:44] Kha'Ien: **...'Ours'-will purge the 'Darkling'...(anger)...*
[24.08.2018 18:19:53] Nyctophilia: HOLY CHRIST!
[24.08.2018 18:19:54] Lu'vaha: **..~Purity~..**
[24.08.2018 18:19:56] Nyctophilia: THAT IS A BIG ONE!
[24.08.2018 18:20:03] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: [leans back in their chair]
[24.08.2018 18:20:10] Vagrant.Kapheira: *The Pure Light approaches, shining brightly.*
[24.08.2018 18:20:33] Perihelion: Abandon ship, all hands
[24.08.2018 18:20:33] Death: Perihelion was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[24.08.2018 18:20:38] Lu'vaha: **..(Joy)..**
[24.08.2018 18:20:39] Alfred.Steiner: Coor bloody hell.
[24.08.2018 18:20:50] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That shall be the fate of all who challenge the true inhabitants of this space.
[24.08.2018 18:20:51] Lu'vaha: *The Nomad moves to hug the Bullhead once more*
[24.08.2018 18:21:04] Nyctophilia: Yeah. They are as big as they're being told about.
[24.08.2018 18:21:08] Alfred.Steiner: My God...you're insane
[24.08.2018 18:21:10] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: I see that you... have some... strong love for their vessel.
[24.08.2018 18:21:16] Kha'Ien: **...'Ours'-kind warned the 'Darkling'...(warmth)...**
[24.08.2018 18:21:29] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: [glares at the bridge window, noticing the 'hugging' nomad]
[24.08.2018 18:21:56] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I am not insane. I am the harbinger of human civilization's downfall, which is inevitable.
[24.08.2018 18:22:15] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind named 'Vagrants' bear the impure 'Light'...'Theirs'-kind 'deviate'...(anger)...**
[24.08.2018 18:22:16] Nyctophilia: What in the world... This thing just dropped on the 'port like nothing!
[24.08.2018 18:22:30] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: But what does killing the Vagrant achieve?
[24.08.2018 18:22:37] Alfred.Steiner: Nothing
[24.08.2018 18:22:38] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: They are your same kind, they do not want to harm you.
[24.08.2018 18:23:03] Alfred.Steiner: I don't know about you, but I'm begining to see some major flaws in these arguments.
[24.08.2018 18:23:03] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: We are working towards a world of universal peace and love. But those who oppose us will be extinguished.
[24.08.2018 18:23:10] Kha'Ien: **...'This one'-feels ~pity~ for 'Theirs'-kind named 'Vagrants'...(warmth)...**
[24.08.2018 18:23:11] Nyctophilia: Same.
[24.08.2018 18:23:42] Alfred.Steiner: Peace and love...via mass extermination. We've been there in our own history. It's never worked.
[24.08.2018 18:23:58] Nyctophilia: That's what Rheinlanders tried to achieve once.
[24.08.2018 18:24:03] Nyctophilia: Didn't worked.
[24.08.2018 18:24:05] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Because it was driven by our own kind. We aren't capable of it.
[24.08.2018 18:24:12] Nyctophilia: And also... Coalitioners.
[24.08.2018 18:24:18] Nyctophilia: They somehow did achieved it.
[24.08.2018 18:24:24] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That is why we need the natives. They understand it in a way we never did.
[24.08.2018 18:24:24] Alfred.Steiner: Peace and love via extermination only works if everyone is exterminated my dear, you cannot change human nature on a whim.
[24.08.2018 18:24:30] Kha'Ien: **...'Theirs'-kind called 'Periphelion' desecraded 'Ours' Void...(anger)...**
[24.08.2018 18:24:42] Alfred.Steiner: Yes Nomad, the Zoner was a fool
[24.08.2018 18:24:48] Nyctophilia: Well as I said, you can't change something fundamentally, you can only unmake it.
[24.08.2018 18:24:49] Alfred.Steiner: No one argues that
[24.08.2018 18:25:07] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Oh, we can change human nature. All will be united with the natives. Then we will not have to worry anymore.
[24.08.2018 18:25:19] Alfred.Steiner: Or, they kill you.
[24.08.2018 18:25:32] Alfred.Steiner: But what does it matter, peace and love right?
[24.08.2018 18:25:59] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *sighing* It's too early for most people to understand this. But we all will, in time.
[24.08.2018 18:26:15] Alfred.Steiner: With the help of a rifle to the head I suspect.
[24.08.2018 18:26:20] Kha'Ien: **...'Ours'-purge the ~Darkness~...**
[24.08.2018 18:26:32] Nyctophilia: It's approaching...
[24.08.2018 18:26:38] Alfred.Steiner: what is?
[24.08.2018 18:26:46] Kha'Ien: **...Obliteration...**
[24.08.2018 18:26:47] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: No, nobody will ever be threatened. Either they want to work on a prosperous future, or they die.
[24.08.2018 18:26:53] Ti'Llanxian: ***...Rage...***

Every single day gets weirder and weirder. Just what do you know, I've been freely roaming in the Edge Worlds, and then I receive a comm from Azhi. And he tells me to come to the place I've never heard before.

[29.08.2018 12:10:30] Nyctophilia: How many tried to settle in this place then?
[29.08.2018 12:10:38] Nyctophilia: I guess there were several attempts.

[29.08.2018 12:16:54] Nyctophilia: Honestly don't know who's guilty in this war. The Guild who went too far or Rheinlanders which assaulted that installation.

[29.08.2018 12:21:58] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It may yet be useful to have a role in the conflict. Observing, at the very least, is important.
[29.08.2018 12:22:22] Nyctophilia: Can't agree more. However, they don't tolerate observants there.
[29.08.2018 12:22:32] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: This conflict is far from ideal. They fight for greed. They will not harm each other enough.

[29.08.2018 12:22:56] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Oh, they do to a degree. I was in the area and wished to observe. The Rheinland Military interrogated me extensively

[29.08.2018 13:15:13] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *chuckles* It's a complication of communication, because they themselves don't address individuals normally.
[29.08.2018 13:15:34] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's not easy to distinguish between the feeling of "person" and "humans".
[29.08.2018 13:15:42] Nyctophilia: Figures.

[29.08.2018 13:16:45] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Your feeling for us and your feeling for one of us is not always easy to distinguish. It's like you're trying-
[29.08.2018 13:16:53] RV-Pennybrooke: to say a foreign word.....which I suppose you are.
[29.08.2018 13:17:01] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Those who've lived under the Light for decades forego distinction. Let alone those who never knew anything else.

[29.08.2018 13:18:46] Nyctophilia: Or that inner bargain?

[29.08.2018 13:19:01] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: They are one and the same.

[29.08.2018 13:20:19] Nyctophilia: I actually find it in a funny coincidence, since whenever I want to go, there's always someone who represents the Light.
[29.08.2018 13:20:39] Nyctophilia: But when I want to do the job, nothing happens.
[29.08.2018 13:20:42] Nyctophilia: Really.

[29.08.2018 13:21:03] (C~Azhi-Dahaka: Because you haven't given the definite word. A choice is forced only on those who can't make it.

[29.08.2018 14:07:36] Death: LN-AGS|F-South.8 was put out of action by [HF]-Gleam. (Gun).
[29.08.2018 14:08:08] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: She is true of heart and will. She will walk the path I cannot.

[29.08.2018 14:08:21] Nyctophilia: Why can't you?

[29.08.2018 14:10:37] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I cannot fulfill my role if I am unified, even if I desire it.

What in the actual fuсk? I knew that there was a certain catch to it, but... She said that they can't hide things. Finds out - they can, and yet again, someone was about to stab me in the back!
Not to consider that nobody came yesterday, today I've met the same priest-talking Nomad right behind Pennsylvania's gates in New York. And it leaked a part of our yesterday's conversation to an LSF agent!
It was blasted afterwards by a navy, and some idiot named Silverstone stole a load of drugs right from their noses. Then he proceeded to bargain with a captain of 5th about employment and negotiating... Over a fact that he stole a contraband, right. Still got the shots of him doing it, maybe I should send them to navy, they pay well for this stuff if it reaches them.
Code:
[30.08.2018 18:00:48] John.Silverstone: Let's face it, Alan.
[30.08.2018 18:01:09] John.Silverstone: I gave you lots of chances to negotiate.
[30.08.2018 18:01:23] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: We do not negotiate with criminals.
[30.08.2018 18:01:23] John.Silverstone: Hale did not need that many to figure the right way out.
[30.08.2018 18:01:31] John.Silverstone: Reavers did not need that many, too.
[30.08.2018 18:01:35] John.Silverstone: Oh? But you do.
[30.08.2018 18:01:53] John.Silverstone: Scarlett. Stern. Valdez. Loyola.
[30.08.2018 18:02:22] John.Silverstone: I know i -am- annoying, but hell. I was trying, you know.
[30.08.2018 18:02:27] John.Silverstone: I still am trying.
[30.08.2018 18:02:48] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: We'll see where that takes you.
[30.08.2018 18:03:10] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: Consider yourself not welcome within Liberty space.
[30.08.2018 18:03:24] John.Silverstone: Mhm. You've put my name next to Mon'Starr's once.
[30.08.2018 18:03:53] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: -I- haven't done anything. But I will now.
[30.08.2018 18:04:02] John.Silverstone: I cared back then, since i liked my neutral stance.
[30.08.2018 18:04:52] John.Silverstone: That will only make me shift sides more, buddy.
[30.08.2018 18:05:10] John.Silverstone: I asked you for contracts way too many times.
[30.08.2018 18:05:19] John.Silverstone: Do you think you are the only employer around?
[30.08.2018 18:05:41] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: When did you ask me for a contract? Don't act like I've done anything do you up until now.
[30.08.2018 18:05:51] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: And I care not for who you side with.
[30.08.2018 18:06:10] John.Silverstone: Your short memory is not my fault, buddy.
[30.08.2018 18:06:42] John.Silverstone: Check ESRD debriefings if you want.
[30.08.2018 18:07:08] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: *He laughs* John you idiot. Who do you take me for?
[30.08.2018 18:07:12] John.Silverstone: Check whatever-the-name-was, that new agency which picked Stern and Forlorn over me.
[30.08.2018 18:07:50] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: ESRD is First Fleet divison. 5th has no access to it's database.
[30.08.2018 18:07:53] John.Silverstone: Hell, that little Forlorn thingy still hurts my self-esteem, you know.
[30.08.2018 18:08:27] 5th|LNS-Phoeni: Alan: Trust me I couldn't care less for your self-esteem.
[30.08.2018 18:08:40] John.Silverstone: Mhm, so what? I came to 5th offering to work for them enough times.
[30.08.2018 18:09:01] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: Obviously they were smart to deny you.
[30.08.2018 18:09:16] John.Silverstone: Do you expect me not to rub stuff in your face when you deny me every chance to work for your buddies?
[30.08.2018 18:09:30] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: I hardly did anything to you.
[30.08.2018 18:09:31] John.Silverstone: Of course i will rub it into you. Make it salty, too.
[30.08.2018 18:09:57] Tip: You were a new player once. If you see someone making obvious mistakes, talk to them and help them.
[30.08.2018 18:10:33] John.Silverstone: Hell, i even offered to help your dolts with your litle Harmony problem back there in Bering.
[30.08.2018 18:10:39] John.Silverstone: Guess what was i answered.
[30.08.2018 18:10:49] Nyctophilia: For your information, your ranting is being transmitted systemwide in the very center of the Sirius Sector. Thank you.
[30.08.2018 18:11:00] John.Silverstone: No, buddy, i will no longer simply drop the stuff that brings me money just because you ask for it.
[30.08.2018 18:11:09] John.Silverstone: I need to make money somehow.
[30.08.2018 18:11:27] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: Then I will make sure you spend that money nicely. On reparing your ship.
[30.08.2018 18:12:17] John.Silverstone: Systemwide this, systemwide that. You can't ruin your reputation when you have no.
[30.08.2018 18:12:40] John.Silverstone: Besides, you've seen the way they acted when i offered them to negotiate.
[30.08.2018 18:12:51] John.Silverstone: So hey, what does it even change?
[30.08.2018 18:13:12] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: The only deal we could have came to is that you drop that cargo, pay a fine and don't get blown up.
[30.08.2018 18:13:28] John.Silverstone: Mhm. Does not fill my pocket.
[30.08.2018 18:13:34] John.Silverstone: But at least you are trying now.
[30.08.2018 18:13:35] Nyctophilia: From my perspective it looked like you've stole somethign that is designated as a contraband right from their nose.
[30.08.2018 18:13:39] Nyctophilia: So... No.
[30.08.2018 18:13:40] John.Silverstone: So try better?
[30.08.2018 18:13:45] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: We'll see how much it takes now that you will be engaged every time you're seen.
[30.08.2018 18:14:00] John.Silverstone: Been there, did that.
[30.08.2018 18:14:18] John.Silverstone: Ask the weirdo with pink lights how much will it cost you to make him shoot me.
[30.08.2018 18:14:45] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: I don't need him to shoot you. I can do that myself.
[30.08.2018 18:15:02] Nyctophilia: They offered three millions. The Core or The Order offer two times more to shoot a Nomad in the Edge Worlds.
[30.08.2018 18:15:22] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: Implying you're more dangerous than a Nomad.
[30.08.2018 18:15:29] Nyctophilia: The ship is.
[30.08.2018 18:15:41] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: It hardly is, if you come prepared.
[30.08.2018 18:15:53] LNS-Lawrence: But not enough dangerous to shoot a freighter?
[30.08.2018 18:16:00] Nyctophilia: Would like to see you proving it.
[30.08.2018 18:16:00] LNS-Lawrence: How's that?
[30.08.2018 18:16:07] John.Silverstone: Dangerous, huh?
[30.08.2018 18:16:17] John.Silverstone: Well, you can imagine me siding with Gauls.
[30.08.2018 18:16:25] Nyctophilia: Oh boy.
[30.08.2018 18:16:28] John.Silverstone: Making them familiar with buddies i know.
[30.08.2018 18:16:29] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: If you'd have kept him where he was, I would have.
[30.08.2018 18:16:43] John.Silverstone: At least they say they -will- pay a lot.
[30.08.2018 18:17:36] John.Silverstone: Huh, that was the wrong button.
[30.08.2018 18:17:45] John.Silverstone: Should not lean onto console like this.
[30.08.2018 18:17:59] John.Silverstone: Not like i care, but... you were saying?
[30.08.2018 18:18:25] Nyctophilia: About Gauls and something.
[30.08.2018 18:18:26] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: I have little to say to you, you know everything you need to.
[30.08.2018 18:19:01] John.Silverstone: Mhm. So, think we should stick with threats and so on?
[30.08.2018 18:19:30] Nyctophilia: You do know that this is not the way you make friends, right?
[30.08.2018 18:19:43] 5th|LNS-Phoenix: Alan: No threats, just facts and warnings.
[30.08.2018 18:19:48] John.Silverstone: You know me, right? Try to count my friends.Then I ventured back to the Edge Worlds, in hope to meet someone again. And guess what - I met! A freaking Gaul with hybrid tech and a clear intent to murder!
Oooh, if it was planned all along... I'll ask Azhi some good questions.

Aaalright... That's just fascinating. Can't say that I'm mad about it, but it also doesn't makes me happy either. Now I'm freelancing directly for them, staying in the middleground, with a chance to be terminated in a proccess... And with a chance to enjoy a company of Melia. Not something I expected.
Code:
[31.08.2018 19:10:11] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I have an important message to relay.
[31.08.2018 19:11:16] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: I'm all ears.
[31.08.2018 19:11:40] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: The freelancer, she is dedicated to the light. But she is unsure of her path.
[31.08.2018 19:12:10] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: She needs guidance. I brought her to the place, but nobody met us. Careful, perhaps.
[31.08.2018 19:12:50] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: Nobody? The ship was spotted next to us for days now.
[31.08.2018 19:13:00] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: Witnessing fights, even.
[31.08.2018 19:13:08] Nyctophilia: Correction if I can.
[31.08.2018 19:13:20] Nyctophilia: I am -certain- about what I want.
[31.08.2018 19:13:31] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: She should speak for herself, on that matter.
[31.08.2018 19:13:34] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: What do you seek?
[31.08.2018 19:14:05] Nyctophilia: The first and outmost - happiness. And then - understanding of them.
[31.08.2018 19:14:37] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: Many seek that. Even the Order.
[31.08.2018 19:14:46] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: To understand our kind.
[31.08.2018 19:14:57] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I...don't claim to have the access into a mind that yours do. But she was tested, many times.
[31.08.2018 19:15:08] RV-Pennybrooke: Her intentions are true.
[31.08.2018 19:15:33] Nyctophilia: It is natural for you to suspect me to be the agent of someone.
[31.08.2018 19:15:38] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: We're aware. Melia was present personally for some of it, what do you have to say?
[31.08.2018 19:16:31] Vagrant.Melia: "This darkling shows their worth."
[31.08.2018 19:17:31] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: Then you have an assignment - be our eyes and ears wherever you go.
[31.08.2018 19:17:39] Nyctophilia: I am already.
[31.08.2018 19:17:41] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: Any piece of information you think is valuable, send it to us.
[31.08.2018 19:18:03] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: Some are more valuable without the gift than with it.
[31.08.2018 19:18:22] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Don't-
[31.08.2018 19:18:35] Nyctophilia: The middleground, ey?
[31.08.2018 19:18:48] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I don't think she wants the same position as me. I don't think anyone wants that.
[31.08.2018 19:19:06] Nyctophilia: Nah, I can live with that.
[31.08.2018 19:19:30] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: It doesn't mean the future can't change.
[31.08.2018 19:19:37] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: You're saying that now. I....don't think you know...
[31.08.2018 19:19:55] Nyctophilia: Suuure.
[31.08.2018 19:20:02] Vagrant.Melia: "All the worthy shall embrace the Light. It is an inevitability."
[31.08.2018 19:20:17] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: Eventually, yes.
[31.08.2018 19:20:28] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: If you think it's a convenient escape from full commitment....it is not. You'll be lost between worlds.
[31.08.2018 19:21:37] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That's not to say I wouldn't mind a companion in my mission, but....it is terribly lonely and frustrating.
[31.08.2018 19:21:56] Nyctophilia: I said, I can live with that.
[31.08.2018 19:22:12] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: It's how you make it to be. You're very dedicated to our cause, Katherine.
[31.08.2018 19:22:16] Vagrant.Melia: "Such is the flaw of clinging to your darkness."
[31.08.2018 19:22:23] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: Same can be said for only a few individuals.
[31.08.2018 19:22:31] Nyctophilia: But that's not the matter I'm here for.
[31.08.2018 19:22:38] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: You were ready to commit fully, just last night. What changed?
[31.08.2018 19:22:56] Nyctophilia: That's why I'm here. To find it out.
[31.08.2018 19:23:19] Nyctophilia: Why all of a sudden some gallic ship with hybrid tech decided to murder me?
[31.08.2018 19:23:53] Nyctophilia: And called me "unworthy" afterwards.
[31.08.2018 19:24:13] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: Name of the ship?
[31.08.2018 19:24:31] Nyctophilia: Can't recall, but something about... Sabre? Fabre?
[31.08.2018 19:24:44] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: Some can be shortsighted when it comes to recognizing a potential ally. It's why your endeavours are very dangerous, until you embrace the gift. They will always be.
[31.08.2018 19:25:13] Kakushi|Aoi: Especially when you're not having arranged meetings but just sticking to whoever's around.
[31.08.2018 19:25:17] Nyctophilia: Well, thanks for warning. Will keep in mind.
[31.08.2018 19:25:21] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: You should hear her story. It's long, but....the bottom line, combined with today.....
[31.08.2018 19:25:36] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Our enemies are getting more bold.
[31.08.2018 19:25:38] Nyctophilia: From the very beginning?
[31.08.2018 19:25:54] Nyctophilia: Would they actually care?
[31.08.2018 19:25:56] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: Contact us via a message. Recipent: Guardians of the Arch. I wanna hear that story in detail, but not here.
[31.08.2018 19:26:30] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: We must be very cautious. They are gathering strength.
[31.08.2018 19:26:36] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: We need repairs after destroying those 2 cruisers. Minor hull breach on the left power system section.
[31.08.2018 19:26:49] RV-Pennybrooke: They may even have trans-sirius connections.
[31.08.2018 19:27:01] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: Is there anything else you need before we moor for repairs?
[31.08.2018 19:27:08] Nyctophilia: No.
[31.08.2018 19:27:16] Nyctophilia: I personally - no.
[31.08.2018 19:27:18] Nyctophilia: They - mayhaps.
[31.08.2018 19:27:22] Vagrant.Melia: "Our Light demands strength. We will not gain it through observers."
[31.08.2018 19:27:27] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: I'll be waiting for that message then. Until then - may the light shine upon you.
[31.08.2018 19:27:29] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: The RV has sustained some damage as well, we will be needing some-
[31.08.2018 19:27:50] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: Unless... damn it!
[31.08.2018 19:28:03] Kakushi|Aoi: Namura: No time for repairs. We have an unknown ship on scanners.
[31.08.2018 19:28:09] Nyctophilia: Alright, off to freeport!Not perfect, but still, a middleground that fits me. If there could be anything happening around in the first place.
And... Guess what, I've met with Kath today again. In the bar at Hawaii. Something I really begin to enjoy, but again, I have a weird feeling that pretty soon it will go away. Just like all the good things.
Code:
[31.08.2018 14:05:52] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They may have been cautious, but I still think they can help.
[31.08.2018 14:06:30] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Patience....they say that a lot. Our understanding of patience is rather more limited than theirs.
[31.08.2018 14:06:40] Nyctophilia: Maybe the second time will work. Or the third.
[31.08.2018 14:06:41] Nyctophilia: Yep.
[31.08.2018 14:07:22] Nyctophilia: I understand everything, but formally speaking, I'm a busy woman.
[31.08.2018 14:07:54] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Of course. But you'll have to make priority for some of the really important things.
[31.08.2018 14:08:24] Nyctophilia: See, that's where it becomes complex.
[31.08.2018 14:08:42] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Hm, what do you mean exactly?
[31.08.2018 14:08:42] Nyctophilia: For an example, I can enjoy the time with them.
[31.08.2018 14:09:03] Nyctophilia: But if in the meantime if something important is going on and I don't see it?
[31.08.2018 14:09:19] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: What do you mean by something important, exactly?
[31.08.2018 14:09:46] Nyctophilia: I don't know, the beginning of a new political conflict, for an example?
[31.08.2018 14:10:11] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It will be important thereafter too.
[31.08.2018 14:10:45] Nyctophilia: Or if someone is about to drop a nuke on something.
[31.08.2018 14:11:28] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Are....are you concerned about loved ones you have, that might be in such danger?
[31.08.2018 14:11:40] Nyctophilia: If I had.
[31.08.2018 14:12:18] Nyctophilia: I am concerned about what happens in Sirius in general. That's a part of my profession.
[31.08.2018 14:12:37] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That we have in common. Though I'm not sure how it relates to your doubts.
[31.08.2018 14:14:07] Nyctophilia: It's not doubts, it's just my imagination going wild while something monotonous is happening for a while.
[31.08.2018 14:14:41] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Would you prefer to have this conversation in a luxurious bar?
[31.08.2018 14:14:43] Nyctophilia: I keep spinning the variants of what could happen right now and what could be happening.
[31.08.2018 14:14:55] Nyctophilia: Right, the bar.
[31.08.2018 14:15:05] 2018-08-31 14:15:12 SMT Traffic control alert: RV-Pennybrooke has requested to dock
[31.08.2018 14:15:07] 2018-08-31 14:15:14 SMT Traffic control alert: Nyctophilia has requested to dock
[31.08.2018 14:16:48] Nyctophilia: *once again, Nycto has left a docking bay and headed to the nearest place where she thought the bar could be located.*
[31.08.2018 14:16:57] RV-Pennybrooke: *Katherine slowly treads down the mooring hall, heading towards the main lobby and bar deck elevator*
[31.08.2018 14:17:46] RV-Pennybrooke: *The area is huge and open, with registration desks opening up to a large dining and seating area*
[31.08.2018 14:18:56] RV-Pennybrooke: *She scans the area, trying to pick up Nycto in the lively crowd*
[31.08.2018 14:19:54] Nyctophilia: *"The luxury liner, ey? Where would the bar be..." She thought, looking around in the hallway.*
[31.08.2018 14:20:57] Nyctophilia: *She looked at her watch for the are scan and figured out that the bar had it's own deck, so she headed to the nearest elevator through the crowd.*
[31.08.2018 14:21:51] Nyctophilia: *"So many rich looking people around here..."*
[31.08.2018 14:22:54] RV-Pennybrooke: *Katherine, meanwhile back from the bar, has seated herself in one of the numerous semicircular table arrangments*
[31.08.2018 14:23:03] Nyctophilia: *As the elevator stopped on the destinated floor, she walked away. The area was indeed widely open."
[31.08.2018 14:24:04] Nyctophilia: *The first thing she noticed was an anormous crystal chandelier at the ceiling.*
[31.08.2018 14:25:09] RV-Pennybrooke: *She works her commpad* Nycto, I've pinged my location. Look at your local map.
[31.08.2018 14:26:50] Nyctophilia: Yep, thanksies. *she took a look at her watch. It formed a small map of the bar itself, and the pinging red dot was apparently
[31.08.2018 14:26:56] Nyctophilia: Kath.*
[31.08.2018 14:28:04] RV-Pennybrooke: *seeing her approaching, she stands up, smiling, looking as disorderly as ever with messy hair and worn spacesuit*
[31.08.2018 14:29:22] Nyctophilia: *as she seems to be approaching Kath, Nycto tears off her attention from the watch and notices her yet again in the same appearance.*
[31.08.2018 14:29:51] Nyctophilia: "...Really? Space suit? In the luxury bar?"
[31.08.2018 14:30:52] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Look around. There are plenty of strange-looking people here, when you're in a place like this...
[31.08.2018 14:31:27] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: There's, uhm, a certain acceptance of that.
[31.08.2018 14:32:33] Nyctophilia: *she observes the bar briefly. Some were dressed quite properly, the others were wearing casual clothes..."
[31.08.2018 14:33:04] Nyctophilia: *and some didn't even managed to wear off their space suits. Yeah, Kath wasn't the only one.*
[31.08.2018 14:33:24] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's busy enough. They won't care. I didn't exactly have time to make up. Now, let's get you something.
[31.08.2018 14:34:09] RV-Pennybrooke: *she presses a richly-decorated button on the table, and mere moments later a perfectly elegant waiter appears*
[31.08.2018 14:34:16] Nyctophilia: Fair enough. *she takes a seat nearby*
[31.08.2018 14:34:38] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I've got my drink already, she wants something to eat, I think. *she gestures at Nyct*
[31.08.2018 14:35:47] Nyctophilia: Yeah... *she takes a look at the menu* I'll have the steak. Medium-rare.
[31.08.2018 14:36:05] Nyctophilia: And a glass of wine.
[31.08.2018 14:36:41] RV-Pennybrooke: "Do you wish to consult our wine list, madam? Or we can send the establishment's best recommendation for your meal."
[31.08.2018 14:38:12] Nyctophilia: Actually... *she takes a brief look at the list of the wines*
[31.08.2018 14:38:50] RV-Pennybrooke: *Katherine chuckles, pouring a glass of beer* Take your time. They're not in a hurry here.
[31.08.2018 14:40:18] Nyctophilia: Yeah, think I'll see what this place can afford. Bordeaux, semisweet.
[31.08.2018 14:40:21] RV-Pennybrooke: *The bottle reads "Xeno's Lament IPA"* They have everything here, even this.
[31.08.2018 14:41:54] Nyctophilia: Yeah, not a big fan of beer. Oh... And I think that Volgogradskaya Vodka will be it for me.
[31.08.2018 14:42:32] Nyctophilia: They even have this here. That's ultimately rare.
[31.08.2018 14:42:50] RV-Pennybrooke: "Right away, Madam!" the waiter leaves with a short but well-rehearsed bow.
[31.08.2018 14:43:52] Nyctophilia: Right, back on topic.
[31.08.2018 14:43:56] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's hard enough being what we are. I think we should take the comforts we can get.
[31.08.2018 14:44:30] RV-Pennybrooke: *she looks up from her drink* Absolutely. The variants that are spinning in your head.
[31.08.2018 14:45:01] Nyctophilia: When we were near that arch, I had alot of option what could happen.
[31.08.2018 14:45:29] Nyctophilia: For instance, I could be murdered, something else could happen...
[31.08.2018 14:45:44] Nyctophilia: And also, Kusarians could came, or Dragons, or the Order...
[31.08.2018 14:45:55] Nyctophilia: And in the meantime, alot of things could be happening.
[31.08.2018 14:46:19] Nyctophilia: Like, for an instance, some idiot with a nuke in their hand could have bombed an another Freeport.
[31.08.2018 14:47:45] RV-Pennybrooke: Yes, I know what you mean. *she strokes her chin* It's what I call the "multiverse void".
[31.08.2018 14:47:59] Nyctophilia: Yes, exactly!
[31.08.2018 14:48:12] RV-Pennybrooke: The possibilities of everything that can be, could be, and could have been suck you in. And because those possiblities are quite literally infinite, you're liable to infinite recursive thoughts.
[31.08.2018 14:49:11] Nyctophilia: And that's what I ultimately like and in the same time it sends me into the land of doubts.
[31.08.2018 14:49:41] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's important to stay grounded, as it were. For me, the most important grounding is the feeling towards others.
[31.08.2018 14:50:10] Nyctophilia: But! It keeps my thinking proccess pulping, which I always need.
[31.08.2018 14:50:32] RV-Pennybrooke: *she pauses, thinking for a moment* When....you feel emotional attachment to someone, that feeling will keep you in the real.
[31.08.2018 14:51:02] RV-Pennybrooke: Because your relationship to them is fixed in the real and the current.
[31.08.2018 14:52:37] Nyctophilia: *Her gaze directs into the crowd* Can't say I've got emotionally attached to anyone in my life.
[31.08.2018 14:53:05] Nyctophilia: Not that I had time for it.
[31.08.2018 14:53:34] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *smiles wryly* Well, perhaps I've been reading you entirely wrong then. I don't think so, though.
[31.08.2018 14:54:01] RV-Pennybrooke: You care for her. I don't need to read your thoughts like they do to see that.
[31.08.2018 14:55:35] Nyctophilia: Well... To be honest, as one for whom "sympathy" is a myth, I uh... That's not emotions.
[31.08.2018 14:57:16] RV-Pennybrooke: You're trying to distance yourself, but why? You're no- "Your steak, madam, and your vodka. Chilled."
[31.08.2018 14:58:00] RV-Pennybrooke: *He places the meal and drink on the table, along with a small dish of ice cubes, with a small pair of ice cube tongs*
[31.08.2018 14:58:08] Nyctophilia: Yeah, uhm... Thanks. Put it on my tab.
[31.08.2018 14:59:07] RV-Pennybrooke: "You companion has already had all expenses transfered to her account, madam. Enjoy your meal!"
[31.08.2018 14:59:42] Nyctophilia: *she stares at Kath*
[31.08.2018 14:59:57] RV-Pennybrooke: *The waiter nods politely, and moves on. Katherine smiles at her.*
[31.08.2018 15:00:21] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I said I'd invite you out here. Don't give another thought to it, it's fine.
[31.08.2018 15:00:56] Nyctophilia: *not even paying an attention to the meat, she pours some wine into the glass* Yeah fine... Thanks.
[31.08.2018 15:01:18] Nyctophilia: Even so, I didn't even enjoyed a company for alot of years.
[31.08.2018 15:02:10] RV-Pennybrooke: You, er....well, I don't want to disturb you while you....eat. But you said you don't feel attachment?
[31.08.2018 15:02:21] RV-Pennybrooke: I don't think that's true. Certainly not in my experience.
[31.08.2018 15:03:00] Nyctophilia: *as the steak was left unnoticed, she took a sip from her glass* Emotionaly - no.
[31.08.2018 15:03:28] Nyctophilia: There
[31.08.2018 15:03:37] Nyctophilia: is just an another complex pattern.
[31.08.2018 15:03:50] RV-Pennybrooke: I think you are trying to convince yourself of that, more than me or anyone else. *she sips her beer*
[31.08.2018 15:04:26] RV-Pennybrooke: Complex patterns are all the world is, my friend! That doesn't denigrate them in any way.
[31.08.2018 15:04:54] Nyctophilia: Pfft. I don't convice myself in anything. I know what is wrong with me and what is not.
[31.08.2018 15:05:25] RV-Pennybrooke: *leaning back* Fine, let's go with that. What do you think is wrong with you, and what isn't?
[31.08.2018 15:05:34] Nyctophilia: I will keep saying it, but that day when I met Melia was the day when I actually felt something for someone.
[31.08.2018 15:06:42] Nyctophilia: Ha! There is alot of things that you can describe as my negative sides and as my positive.
[31.08.2018 15:07:05] RV-Pennybrooke: And how would you describe those things?
[31.08.2018 15:07:23] Nyctophilia: Not to describe, just going to bring some examples.
[31.08.2018 15:08:17] Nyctophilia: What is funny that they might be simultaneously good and bad, depends from perspective.
[31.08.2018 15:08:53] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Good and bad are somewhat ambigious concepts. But let's hear them, then.
[31.08.2018 15:09:37] Nyctophilia: For instance, the thing we've talked about before - I can't tolerate monotonous proceedures and I begin to think what could
[31.08.2018 15:09:46] Nyctophilia: happen and what is happening and yadda yadda.
[31.08.2018 15:10:13] Nyctophilia: Second - I like dark places.
[31.08.2018 15:10:17] RV-Pennybrooke: I would hardly consider that a fault. I think that's the basis of drive.
[31.08.2018 15:10:44] Nyctophilia: Third - I stalk people.
[31.08.2018 15:10:56] Nyctophilia: And fourth - my philosophy.
[31.08.2018 15:11:17] RV-Pennybrooke: *she nods, slowly* Everything you've mentioned so far is entirely consistent with what I would consider moral and ethical.
[31.08.2018 15:11:26] RV-Pennybrooke: Not to mention logical.
[31.08.2018 15:11:52] Nyctophilia: Logic aside, I'm still alive and kicking. And I'm still me.
[31.08.2018 15:13:14] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *gently placing her hand on hers* You'll only stop being yourself if you die or suffer severe brain damage.
[31.08.2018 15:13:35] Nyctophilia: Worst case scenario - Core.
[31.08.2018 15:13:48] Nyctophilia: Or the Order.
[31.08.2018 15:14:29] RV-Pennybrooke: Either making money from genocide, or doing it just for fun....I suppose that makes the Order worse.
[31.08.2018 15:14:32] RV-Pennybrooke: But not by much.
[31.08.2018 15:14:50] RV-Pennybrooke: And yes, that's an oversimplification, I know.
[31.08.2018 15:15:00] Nyctophilia: Can't say they do it for fun, they were doing it because they had a goal.
[31.08.2018 15:15:15] RV-Pennybrooke: Yes, genocide. That is their goal.
[31.08.2018 15:15:20] Nyctophilia: But now they're doing it because...
[31.08.2018 15:15:38] Nyctophilia: *she stares into the ceiling* Reich! Golanski! Godadmiral!
[31.08.2018 15:15:58] Nyctophilia: *she looks back at Kath* What kind of absurd is this?
[31.08.2018 15:16:49] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *she looks back with sad eyes, turns away and sighs* They have the right drive, the energy.
[31.08.2018 15:17:03] RV-Pennybrooke: Like so many do. It's a shame it goes in completely the wrong direction.
[31.08.2018 15:18:04] RV-Pennybrooke: They want the survival of humanity, and I cannot fault them for this. But they don't recognize that it cannot happen within.
[31.08.2018 15:18:41] Nyctophilia: I admire the for attempting, at least.
[31.08.2018 15:18:58] RV-Pennybrooke: If they....if they somehow succeed, and wipe us out, they will create a future in which there is no hope for redemption.
[31.08.2018 15:19:09] Nyctophilia: They tried. And now not only they hate them, but also all of humanity calls them terrorists.
[31.08.2018 15:19:24] Nyctophilia: They... Well, you know whom I mean.
[31.08.2018 15:19:53] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It is deeply ironic. Humanity call them terrorists which is actually true, but not for the reason they give.
[31.08.2018 15:20:13] Nyctophilia: You know. I think that an instinct of preservation is kind of within Nomads too.
[31.08.2018 15:20:38] Nyctophilia: Like, both sides will do anything so survive.
[31.08.2018 15:20:53] RV-Pennybrooke: Of course, that is why they struck out twenty-five years ago. They discovered their home had been occupied.
[31.08.2018 15:20:54] Nyctophilia: That's how Vagrants have came this far.
[31.08.2018 15:21:31] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's very sad to see them. It may actually help them in some ways, to be separated, but they are suffering for it.
[31.08.2018 15:22:24] Nyctophilia: Don't know, I think whatever happens within the Nomad Society, stays within the Nomad Society.
[31.08.2018 15:22:44] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Nycto *she grasps her arm* They are in danger. You saw what happened today.
[31.08.2018 15:23:17] RV-Pennybrooke: It's not that hard to imagine a worst case, in which they are lured out, trapped, and hunted to extinction.
[31.08.2018 15:23:23] Nyctophilia: *she looks back at Kath*
[31.08.2018 15:23:43] RV-Pennybrooke: What do you think would have happened to Melia, had I not stopped her? Where would he have led her?
[31.08.2018 15:24:07] Nyctophilia: Mmm... Many options.
[31.08.2018 15:24:26] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They are....very proud. They don't want to admit being influenced by humans. But they are.
[31.08.2018 15:24:45] RV-Pennybrooke: Now when I influence them, I mean the best, at least. But they can be influenced by others, too.
[31.08.2018 15:25:12] Nyctophilia: ...You want -me- to influence them?
[31.08.2018 15:25:50] RV-Pennybrooke: You already are. She cares about you and you for her.
[31.08.2018 15:26:20] RV-Pennybrooke: They have a strange sense of pride. They won't ever admit it, but they do.
[31.08.2018 15:26:32] Nyctophilia: And if you bypass it?
[31.08.2018 15:26:41] RV-Pennybrooke: But they are not without failure. They make mistakes, and they could be dangerous.
[31.08.2018 15:27:05] RV-Pennybrooke: Bypass it...? How? I'm not even sure they can do that within their own network.
[31.08.2018 15:27:19] Nyctophilia: Not literally. In psychological sense.
[31.08.2018 15:28:01] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Well, we can do what we can. Even you or I, we can influence them and try to keep them from danger.
[31.08.2018 15:28:40] Nyctophilia: If there is danger.
[31.08.2018 15:29:15] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: There is. What you said just confirms it. Not to mention my own experiences.
[31.08.2018 15:29:22] Nyctophilia: By far, I can tell that you better not interrupt a Nomad if it's upset.
[31.08.2018 15:29:49] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Oh, quite the contrary. That's when you most need to upset them.
[31.08.2018 15:30:06] RV-Pennybrooke: What do you think would have happened, had I not stopped her?
[31.08.2018 15:30:16] Nyctophilia: Again, multiple scenarios.
[31.08.2018 15:30:50] RV-Pennybrooke: Endless scenarios, I know. But he baited her so easily. Just trying to kill someone she never could.
[31.08.2018 15:31:18] RV-Pennybrooke: She would have rolled right into Mu with no care but eliminating him, likely.
[31.08.2018 15:31:41] Nyctophilia: Technically speaking, she could, but, yet again, it was the emotions that took over her. Now that I understand because...
[31.08.2018 15:31:52] Nyctophilia: It was probably the Order's work.
[31.08.2018 15:32:08] Nyctophilia: Why they hate them -that- much.
[31.08.2018 15:32:18] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: They know that. They can manipulate, and they will use it.
[31.08.2018 15:33:00] RV-Pennybrooke: They can let loose emotions that will trigger them, and use that to hunt and destroy them.
[31.08.2018 15:33:37] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I am honestly glad I was still human in that situation, because I saw it immediately and managed to get her away.
[31.08.2018 15:33:47] Nyctophilia: Let the anger overtake you? Something that is a single human capable of handling.
[31.08.2018 15:34:05] Nyctophilia: But, in their place, I understand.
[31.08.2018 15:34:29] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Because humans are used to it. They don't fully understand the idea of using someone's emotions to bait them.
[31.08.2018 15:34:45] RV-Pennybrooke: It is a, in the truest sense of the word, alien concept to them.
[31.08.2018 15:34:53] Nyctophilia: Uhm... That's where I'd disagree with you.
[31.08.2018 15:35:55] RV-Pennybrooke: Hm, how so?
[31.08.2018 15:36:31] Nyctophilia: They should understand how it works.
[31.08.2018 15:36:58] Nyctophilia: Because it was twenty-five years since the first contact.
[31.08.2018 15:37:32] Nyctophilia: If they didn't learned anything about humans since then, well...
[31.08.2018 15:37:36] Nyctophilia: Fun times.
[31.08.2018 15:37:48] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: You may think so. And to an extent, they- "May I get the ladies anything else?"
[31.08.2018 15:38:01] Nyctophilia: No, thanks.
[31.08.2018 15:38:39] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Yes. Grey Wing gin with tonic. Lots of ice. Thank you.
[31.08.2018 15:39:21] RV-Pennybrooke: *she turns back to Nycto after the waiter leaves* They've learned how we work, but they're still vulnerable to it.
[31.08.2018 15:39:52] Nyctophilia: Yep, that's what I mean.
[31.08.2018 15:39:53] RV-Pennybrooke: They have tried various approaches, but they don't really have a solid counter. And it's dangerous.
[31.08.2018 15:40:08] Nyctophilia: They know, but they don't understand.
[31.08.2018 15:40:26] RV-Pennybrooke: Or alternatively, they understand, but can't deal with it.
[31.08.2018 15:40:37] RV-Pennybrooke: Either way, they're in danger. Probably more than they realize.
[31.08.2018 15:41:00] RV-Pennybrooke: The fact that one of theirs seems to have been influenced by an LSF agent confirms that.
[31.08.2018 15:41:17] RV-Pennybrooke: Unless, of course, it was the other way around, but that doesn't make sense in the context you gave.
[31.08.2018 15:41:39] Nyctophilia: Uhm... I'd say they're in a way greater danger, since.
[31.08.2018 15:41:51] Nyctophilia: You know. Harbinger and the Auxesian lady.
[31.08.2018 15:42:17] RV-Pennybrooke: *she freezes* Harbinger?
[31.08.2018 15:42:51] Nyctophilia: Y-Yes. She said that she met him.
[31.08.2018 15:43:00] Nyctophilia: Can't say that it was truth.
[31.08.2018 15:43:31] RV-Pennybrooke: *looking in a corner, dreamily* The one that we've called Harbinger....taught me a lot about what I know of them.
[31.08.2018 15:44:11] RV-Pennybrooke: The love and understanding he gave me, I- I've struggled to find since.
[31.08.2018 15:44:40] Nyctophilia: And she said that he's a grumpy old Nomad.
[31.08.2018 15:45:13] Nyctophilia: Are we talking of the same Harbinger here?
[31.08.2018 15:45:27] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: What? No, Harby is a darling. I don't know what they did to upset him, but....
[31.08.2018 15:46:29] RV-Pennybrooke: I'll send you a postcard of one of my old encounters, if I find it again.
[31.08.2018 15:47:15] Nyctophilia: Hmm wow, appreciated.
[31.08.2018 15:47:56] RV-Pennybrooke: "Madam, your gin & tonic. Pardon the delay, it's quite busy at the moment!"
[31.08.2018 15:48:41] RV-Pennybrooke: *sipping her drink* Ah well. No need to yearn for past days.
[31.08.2018 15:49:10] Nyctophilia: Yeah, well, what I was talking about is now. Because if they manage to influence Harbinger in some way, things will go
[31.08.2018 15:49:13] Nyctophilia: downwards.
[31.08.2018 15:49:44] RV-Pennybrooke: Who? Who do you think could do such a thing?
[31.08.2018 15:50:57] Nyctophilia: Whoever has an influence over him.
[31.08.2018 15:51:05] Nyctophilia: Auxesians, in particular.
[31.08.2018 15:51:43] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Auxesians....eugh. I've seen them work together with the Core. They are certainly not to be trusted.
[31.08.2018 15:51:56] RV-Pennybrooke: But they have an agenda of their own, and I don't know what it is yet.
[31.08.2018 15:52:28] Nyctophilia: They've said that it's something about preserving the species.
[31.08.2018 15:52:50] Nyctophilia: So most likely themselves.
[31.08.2018 15:53:10] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I feel there's a greater irony here that I'm missing.
[31.08.2018 15:54:04] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I need to, uhm. Clean up my ship and check my reactors for a bit.
[31.08.2018 15:54:18] Nyctophilia: I'll be here!I am still uncertain about telling them my story with Melia. To me, their tone sounded rather dry and careless. So I think I better stick to my work... If I manage to find anything new in the next days.

Is she following me? Or am I following her? That's the question I keep asking myself all the time. Just when I headed off to the work, she considered right to take my time. And we were jumping... Through space. And maybe even time, I don't even know. Moments before, we were in Cortez, and now we're in Taus. Another jump... Coronado. I mentioned earlier that this system is beautiful, and she seems to agree with me. And another one... And we're in Kusari now. The most beautiful star cluster I've ever seen. We had a prolonged conversation in this system. The details she shared with me were... Interesting. Some of them were regarding the meeting I had yesterday.
Code:
[01.09.2018 17:37:37] Nyctophilia.: Coronado. Huh.
[01.09.2018 17:38:16] Nyctophilia.: But... We're so far away from planets and the star.
[01.09.2018 17:39:20] Vagrant.Melia: "Such is the moment."
[01.09.2018 17:40:05] Vagrant.Melia: "It is perhaps fitting. We are not like our Bretheren. You are not like most darklings."
[01.09.2018 17:41:16] Nyctophilia.: Well, the sole purpose of a human being to be different. Individual.
[01.09.2018 17:42:16] Nyctophilia.: But you... I can't even imagine why you can't find the understanding between eachother.
[01.09.2018 17:43:28] Nyctophilia.: Well, what exaclty makes it difficult for two of your kinds to unite?
[01.09.2018 17:44:57] Vagrant.Melia: "We diverged."
[01.09.2018 17:45:27] Vagrant.Melia: "They evolved along a parallel path."
[01.09.2018 17:45:39] Vagrant.Melia: "We have followed our own."

[01.09.2018 17:47:46] Nyctophilia.: Well... How come you can't sort out your differences? Are they -that- absolutive?
[01.09.2018 17:48:29] Vagrant.Melia: "It was proven to not be possible."
[01.09.2018 17:49:07] Nyctophilia.: So you tried to negotiate and nothing worked?
[01.09.2018 17:50:41] Vagrant.Melia: "The attempt was made. It was not successful."
[01.09.2018 17:51:16] Vagrant.Melia: "The manner of the Bretheren and the Vagrants is not compatible."
[01.09.2018 17:51:25] Nyctophilia.: That's just... Not right. And considering through what you've been... I just don't believe that they could say "no" to their own kind.
[01.09.2018 17:51:38] Nyctophilia.: Not in your kind of society!
[01.09.2018 17:52:04] Vagrant.Melia: "Such has become our nature."
[01.09.2018 17:52:37] Nyctophilia.: I'm just... So sorry for what have happened to you and is happening.
[01.09.2018 17:53:07] Vagrant.Melia: "They remained in conflict with the darkness, and evolved appropriately."
[01.09.2018 17:53:16] Vagrant.Melia: "We were stranded in the Abyss. We evolved as such."
[01.09.2018 17:53:59] Vagrant.Melia: "We acknowledge your pity, although it is of little value. What has happened cannot be altered."
[01.09.2018 17:55:09] Nyctophilia.: Well... Might have sounded like a pity, put I've tried to be compassionate here...
[01.09.2018 17:55:31] Nyctophilia.: But yeah, it is of little value.
[01.09.2018 17:56:58] Nyctophilia.: So they evolved to fight, while you... I guess, evolved to survive?
[01.09.2018 17:57:16] Nyctophilia.: And you didn't knew what was happening here?
[01.09.2018 17:57:37] Vagrant.Melia: "We were far from these voids."
[01.09.2018 17:58:37] Nyctophilia.: Well, you may not heard of the biggest irony in humanity's history. The war between Rheinland and Liberty.
[01.09.2018 18:00:04] Nyctophilia.: Or had you?
[01.09.2018 18:01:56] Vagrant.Melia: "We would not."
[01.09.2018 18:02:28] Nyctophilia.: Well, it might be of little interest for you.
[01.09.2018 18:03:13] Nyctophilia.: However, long story short - Rheinland has declared a war on Liberty, occusing them in experimenting with your technologies.
[01.09.2018 18:04:16] Nyctophilia.: The irony is that Rheinlanders were the first to invade the Omicrons, as far as I am aware.
[01.09.2018 18:05:55] Nyctophilia.: Still, doesn't quite wraps around my head. If they evolved to fight and you to survive, you should have found a common language
[01.09.2018 18:07:56] Nyctophilia.: Strange question, but... Was that person in a Kusari Destroyer representing the other hive?
[01.09.2018 18:08:14] Vagrant.Melia: "Those carriers serve the Bretheren."
[01.09.2018 18:08:25] Vagrant.Melia: "They are not ours."
[01.09.2018 18:08:40] Nyctophilia.: Figures... Their tone was more dry and careless.
[01.09.2018 18:08:55] Nyctophilia.: And they quickly assumed me being a spy of the Order.
[01.09.2018 18:09:15] Vagrant.Melia: "The barrier is not one of thought. We are singing to one such as you. We can sing to them."
[01.09.2018 18:09:28] Vagrant.Melia: "It is..."
[01.09.2018 18:10:33] Nyctophilia.: Yeah, I know, I won't be able to comprehend it.
[01.09.2018 18:10:39] Vagrant.Melia: "Uncertainty. It is difficult to convey."
[01.09.2018 18:11:55] Vagrant.Melia: "Your observation is accurate. They sing a different song."
[01.09.2018 18:13:01] Nyctophilia.: I mean no offence here, but... Speaking figuratively, I'm not a fun of that song's tone.
[01.09.2018 18:13:49] Nyctophilia.: With you here? I feel comfortable, and what is most importantly - safe.
[01.09.2018 18:15:17] Nyctophilia.: And I always have a strange foreshadowing feeling that all the good things are going to go away.
[01.09.2018 18:15:20] Nyctophilia.: Just as always.
[01.09.2018 18:15:49] Vagrant.Melia: "Amusement. The voids are transient. They are prone to shift."
[01.09.2018 18:16:48] Nyctophilia.: I'm talking about the company with you... With Kath.
[01.09.2018 18:17:32] Nyctophilia.: Everything else is of little matter to me.
[01.09.2018 18:17:37] Nyctophilia.: Money can be owned.
[01.09.2018 18:17:44] Nyctophilia.: Ships can be repaired.
[01.09.2018 18:18:22] Nyctophilia.: But people around you cannot be brought back from the dead.
[01.09.2018 18:18:53] Vagrant.Melia: "Perhaps that is true of darklings. The Light is not so simple to shatter."
[01.09.2018 18:19:24] Nyctophilia.: I don't really know if you can die, but if we die - that's the end of the road.
[01.09.2018 18:19:48] Nyctophilia.: Pssh. The person is gone.
[01.09.2018 18:20:31] Vagrant.Melia: "Fickle darkness."
[01.09.2018 18:21:11] Vagrant.Melia: "Yours fight so often, yet your forms are fragile."
[01.09.2018 18:21:41] Nyctophilia.: That's why we fight so often.
[01.09.2018 18:21:57] Nyctophilia.: Because we're so easy to be killed.
[01.09.2018 18:24:08] Vagrant.Melia: "And yet darklings cling to their fickle nature."
[01.09.2018 18:24:47] Nyctophilia.: We can be called one of the most paradoxal races out there, yes.
[01.09.2018 18:25:57] Nyctophilia.: Because most I personally don't see any sense in the most things humanity does.
[01.09.2018 18:26:28] Nyctophilia.: Cooperate? Nah. Let's destroy the other side and take their resources, while taking some casualties in a proccess.
[01.09.2018 18:26:54] Vagrant.Melia: "Yours prefer disunity."
[01.09.2018 18:27:32] Nyctophilia.: Well, individualism is everything for humanity.
[01.09.2018 18:28:03] Nyctophilia.: However, as I said earlier, united individuals are a strong couple.
[01.09.2018 18:28:45] Vagrant.Melia: "Disjoined minds are not as capable as a united whole."
[01.09.2018 18:30:24] Nyctophilia.: Well, there might be conflicts between some, on the other hand.
[01.09.2018 18:30:57] Nyctophilia.: Human nature is a complex thing.This was the moment I remembered that Kath asked me to try to affect Melia in a certain way. Can't say that I didn't tried, but now I know that the Order triggers some kind of emotions in them that they cannot resist. And what is dangerous that the Order knows it.
Code:
[01.09.2018 18:36:20] Nyctophilia.: Hmm... Actually... Now that I remember, I saw you trying to assault smaller Order vessels in any convinient cases.
[01.09.2018 18:37:23] Nyctophilia.: But you weren't just attacking them, were you?
[01.09.2018 18:37:46] Vagrant.Melia: "The Banishers must be punished."
[01.09.2018 18:38:41] Nyctophilia.: So... The Banishers, would fit for the Order.
[01.09.2018 18:39:26] Nyctophilia.: Just a small recommendation - anger is a dangerous thing.
[01.09.2018 18:39:41] Vagrant.Melia: "We are aware."
[01.09.2018 18:40:36] Nyctophilia.: I saw you going after these Order pilots with a thrill. And I know what kind of pain they've caused to you, but still.
[01.09.2018 18:40:43] Nyctophilia.: Try to hold yourself together, alright?
[01.09.2018 18:41:11] Nyctophilia.: They know what they've caused to you and they will use it against you.
[01.09.2018 18:41:22] Vagrant.Melia: "Our Light shall persevere."
[01.09.2018 18:41:43] Nyctophilia.: And you will preserve in showing them that you are dominant.
[01.09.2018 18:41:57] Nyctophilia.: The most dominant gesture is not running for a smaller being.
[01.09.2018 18:42:12] Nyctophilia.: The dominant gesture is to make that smaller being come to you.
[01.09.2018 18:43:04] Vagrant.Melia: "Their hatred is strong. It must be met."
[01.09.2018 18:44:00] Nyctophilia.: It's not only their hatred, but also their hubris.
[01.09.2018 18:44:30] Nyctophilia.: But, there is just a simple thing you can do against these two. Ignorance.
[01.09.2018 18:45:03] Nyctophilia.: By ignoring their hatred and hubris, whilist remaining completely calm and keeping up to your goal, you will demonstrate who is higher here.
[01.09.2018 18:45:03] Vagrant.Melia: "A fundamental threat. They cannot be ignored."
[01.09.2018 18:46:16] Nyctophilia.: And who said that you should ignore them?
[01.09.2018 18:47:28] Nyctophilia.: They are the fishermen, and you are the fish. When they catch you on that emotional hook, you are done for.
[01.09.2018 18:47:46] Nyctophilia.: Instead, you should become a fisherman. And they should be your fish.
[01.09.2018 18:48:05] Vagrant.Melia: "Elaborate."
[01.09.2018 18:48:31] Nyctophilia.: Try use their tactics against them.
[01.09.2018 18:49:16] Nyctophilia.: While remaining completely calm.
[01.09.2018 18:51:53] Nyctophilia.: Humans are vicious in nature, just remember it.
[01.09.2018 18:52:50] Vagrant.Melia: "The Banishers are hateful. They must be purged."
[01.09.2018 18:53:10] Nyctophilia.: I am more than certainly that you will achieve your goal.
[01.09.2018 18:53:31] Nyctophilia.: Just... I was giving you recommendations for cases like yesterday.
[01.09.2018 18:54:06] Nyctophilia.: Because I don't wan't anything bad to you to happen.
[01.09.2018 18:56:17] Nyctophilia.: I still remember the first day we've met, and that was the day when my life changed radically.
[01.09.2018 18:58:00] Nyctophilia.: Just... My whole understanding of you, and what you've done, and everything else.
[01.09.2018 18:58:08] Nyctophilia.: My world literally turned upside down.
[01.09.2018 19:00:21] Nyctophilia.: I wonder if I ever get to meet any others of your kind...
[01.09.2018 19:00:52] Vagrant.Melia: "Such may yet happen."
[01.09.2018 19:01:56] Nyctophilia.: Actually, I saw one, but... They weren't much up for a conversaton.
[01.09.2018 19:02:20] Nyctophilia.: Probably because that Zoner upset them.
[01.09.2018 19:03:57] Vagrant.Melia: "The Bystanders are a nuisance."
[01.09.2018 19:04:19] Nyctophilia.: Some of them are.Then we jumped again, into Kyushu. And I happened to meet a person who attempted to assault me. Not even a word of appology. As it appeared later, my name was confusing for them. That was the moment when I confessed my doubts to Melia about them.

[01.09.2018 19:17:33] Nyctophilia.: I think I should share my concerns with you, the path they are proposing to me is... Not the one I'd prefer. As if I've got a choice.

[01.09.2018 19:18:47] Nyctophilia.: Yes, exactly. And that's the same unreasonable agression I feel from most humans.
[01.09.2018 19:19:43] Nyctophilia.: I can't blame them, but... It's not my way.
[01.09.2018 19:20:13] Nyctophilia.: I need a solid reason to get angry at someone.
[01.09.2018 19:20:29] Vagrant.Melia: "They will likely not cease until yours are claimed or destroyed."

[01.09.2018 19:21:27] Nyctophilia.: And I've escaped worse situations.
[01.09.2018 19:22:31] Nyctophilia.: It would be a sad resolution if it all leads to me being assaulted in the end, sadly.
[01.09.2018 19:22:36] Nyctophilia.: But what to do.
[01.09.2018 19:22:53] Nyctophilia.: All good things tend to end sooner or later.
[01.09.2018 19:22:56] Vagrant.Melia: "We ponder."
[01.09.2018 19:24:31] Nyctophilia.: And what exactly do you mean?
[01.09.2018 19:24:50] Nyctophilia.: If you mean "Nyctophilia" - that's because I like dark places.
[01.09.2018 19:25:10] Nyctophilia.: Dark nebulae and all that.
[01.09.2018 19:26:01] Nyctophilia.: I was known as Nyctophilia way before I've met Melia, and way before she told me about all the "Darkness" and "The Light".
[01.09.2018 19:26:28] Nyctophilia.: Now I find it somehow ironic.
[01.09.2018 19:27:02] Fabre|Aoi: I trust the greater light to take care about your presence.
[01.09.2018 19:28:13] Nyctophilia.: ...Every time they approach, I put my hand on a trigger.
[01.09.2018 19:28:50] Vagrant.Melia: "Theirs will be persistent."
[01.09.2018 19:29:15] Nyctophilia.: *she sighs* No... I am incopatible with them.
[01.09.2018 19:30:26] Nyctophilia.: I can't say that I trust them. Because the day I've met that very pilot, he clearly wanted to murder me.
[01.09.2018 19:30:53] Vagrant.Melia: "Yet the other sought to use you."
[01.09.2018 19:31:19] Vagrant.Melia: "We grow curious. We shall learn."
[01.09.2018 19:31:49] Nyctophilia.: Yeah, exactly. But they sounded as any other recruiter I've met.
[01.09.2018 19:32:20] Vagrant.Melia: "Elaborate."
[01.09.2018 19:33:16] Nyctophilia.: Their tone was dry, as if they didn't gave any damn who I am or why I am here.
[01.09.2018 19:33:34] Nyctophilia.: They just given me an assignment. To be their agent.
[01.09.2018 19:33:54] Vagrant.Melia: "Yours seek compassion. They lack it."
[01.09.2018 19:34:20] Nyctophilia.: Exactly.
[01.09.2018 19:34:30] Nyctophilia.: I said that the first and outmost I wanted to be happy.
[01.09.2018 19:34:35] Vagrant.Melia: "Their number is many. They can elect to focus upon their spitfire."
[01.09.2018 19:34:51] Vagrant.Melia: "Ours are few. We must take care."
[01.09.2018 19:35:39] Nyctophilia.: That's what I was talking about before.
[01.09.2018 19:36:16] Nyctophilia.: You should not risk yourself, even if it's your deadly enemy. There are the ones who can help you.
[01.09.2018 19:36:38] Nyctophilia.: You have them, unlike me.
[01.09.2018 19:37:46] Vagrant.Melia: "Perhaps."
[01.09.2018 19:38:43] Nyctophilia.: Like, the way you talked about your society, I am more than certain that -someone- will help you.
[01.09.2018 19:39:06] Vagrant.Melia: "The whole will know."
[01.09.2018 19:39:46] Nyctophilia.: That's even better! If they all know - they all can help you!
[01.09.2018 19:39:58] Nyctophilia.: Just don't be afraid to ask.
[01.09.2018 19:40:20] Vagrant.Melia: "Amusement. It is simply known."
[01.09.2018 19:40:58] Vagrant.Melia: "Through our Light there may yet be compassion."
[01.09.2018 19:41:43] Nyctophilia.: And... Well, I can say such things about your kind, but the others, I don't even know what to think of them.
[01.09.2018 19:42:58] Nyctophilia.: And it's not comparing you to them, I'm just... Trying to figure out what should I do next.
[01.09.2018 19:44:08] Vagrant.Melia: "Perhaps we may offer guidance."
[01.09.2018 19:44:10] Nyctophilia.: Definitely my relationship with them is not going further than an "Employee and a Boss"
[01.09.2018 19:45:10] Vagrant.Melia: "The Bretheren may seek to use you. We would seek to improve you."
[01.09.2018 19:45:36] Nyctophilia.: I just... Want to be... happy.
[01.09.2018 19:45:47] Nyctophilia.: With the ones that bring happiness in my life.
[01.09.2018 19:46:54] Vagrant.Melia: "Yours may attempt. But the form of pure darkness is not well suited."
[01.09.2018 19:48:02] Nyctophilia.: Conditions... Why can't it be just so simple?
[01.09.2018 19:49:17] Vagrant.Melia: " Our Light may yet provide."
[01.09.2018 19:49:19] Nyctophilia.: The first thing I get from the person who should have given me something greater than an another task is a condition.
[01.09.2018 19:50:37] Nyctophilia.: I can't say "no" to you, Melia.
[01.09.2018 19:51:02] Nyctophilia.: And again, I have nothing to lose.
[01.09.2018 19:51:20] Nyctophilia.: They will try to assassinate me - good luck with that.
[01.09.2018 19:51:27] Nyctophilia.: Many tried, many failed.
[01.09.2018 19:51:35] Vagrant.Melia: "Yet they will still attempt."
[01.09.2018 19:51:56] Nyctophilia.: And I will keep running from them if they will attempt.And that was the moment when the joy almsot stopped. An another one of them appeared.

[01.09.2018 19:59:32] Nyctophilia.: When she showed me herself.

[01.09.2018 20:04:32] Nyctophilia.: That's just the beginning of the story. The day when they wanted to propose me something, I was waiting all the night for them to appear.
[01.09.2018 20:04:46] Nyctophilia.: Sadly, there was nobody.
[01.09.2018 20:05:07] Nyctophilia.: Just a person who I know, an another supporter of you, Katherine Pennybrooke.

[01.09.2018 20:06:10] Nyctophilia.: And on another day, I see a gallic ship with hybrid tech with a clear intent to murder me.
[01.09.2018 20:07:00] Nyctophilia.: I've been absolutely shocked. Thought that you wanted to get rid of me, especially after everything that happened.
[01.09.2018 20:07:15] Vagrant.Perseis: "Amusement. Wish yours was purge. However, Kin likes you."
[01.09.2018 20:07:56] Nyctophilia.: I'd uh... Keep my distance after such sentance.

[01.09.2018 20:08:31] Vagrant.Perseis: "Apart from the Sparkling Raiders."
[01.09.2018 20:08:44] Nyctophilia.: Everything I wanted since I met Melia - happiness.
[01.09.2018 20:08:50] Vagrant.Melia: "Do not presume haste, kin. We may yet be able to purify their nature."
[01.09.2018 20:09:25] Vagrant.Perseis: "We will study this dark one. Possible prospect of the light."
[01.09.2018 20:09:41] Vagrant.Melia: "Theirs would be worthy."
[01.09.2018 20:10:24] Nyctophilia.: ...Worth. Right.
[01.09.2018 20:11:21] Vagrant.Perseis: "Agreed. Yours will test it. Study its nature and evaluate its progress. If the right period arrives, yours know what to do."
[01.09.2018 20:12:16] Vagrant.Melia: "We are confident. Perhaps the Greater Lights will agree."
[01.09.2018 20:12:44] Vagrant.Perseis: "Perhaps. We see a spark on this one."
[01.09.2018 20:13:21] Nyctophilia.: Yeah... The difference is obvious.
[01.09.2018 20:13:41] Vagrant.Melia: "It is not a path we shall impose. Yet we will determine the viability."
[01.09.2018 20:15:05] Vagrant.Perseis: "Truth, Kin speaks. However, too long it has been on the Forgotten Void. It must escape."
[01.09.2018 20:15:48] Vagrant.Melia: "Our kin grow impatient of you, dark one. Yours may no longer linger."
[01.09.2018 20:15:58] Nyctophilia.: Well, in this case, I will imrpovise... As I was always doing.
[01.09.2018 20:16:28] Vagrant.Melia: "Our paths will cross. Perhaps they shall bind. The next moments will decide."
[01.09.2018 20:16:37] Nyctophilia.: Hope so.
[01.09.2018 20:17:09] Nyctophilia.: Alright, think my presense here is unwelcome...
[01.09.2018 20:17:15] Nyctophilia.: Will be seeing you!
[01.09.2018 20:17:38] Vagrant.Perseis: "Until another period, ~prospect~"In their last words, they were discussing my worth. Not my sympathy or strive to understand their kind and existance, but my worth. Guess they are slowly becoming an enemy they fight. But the moment I've met Melia... It was the best thing that ever happened in my life. But as further I go from that moment, the grimmer becomes the reality around me.
Not like I didn't anticipated it. However, it was a chance for me to find some kind of happiness in my life. I won't hope for anything and will show them that I actually care, maybe it will resolve in a better outcome. But I will remain prepared for any possible turn of odds.

I... I can't describe what happened today, it was... Something other. But I'm sure I was never happy as today. And that's not an emotional happiness, that's something... Deep down within me.
I was just flying in the Omicrons, and then I stumbled upon Melia and Kimiko... She didn't recognized me from first, maybe because I've obtained a new ship.

[09.09.2018 15:41:31] Nyctophilia: Oh, we're going somewhere again?
[09.09.2018 15:41:36] Gossamer: I love this part...
[09.09.2018 15:41:49] Jumping...And... We were jumping again. I still wonder why they do that, but Melia said that it's their purpose. Whyever she does that, I'm enjoying it. We were in Liberty, in the very center of Gallia, in Sigmas, Taus, Omicrons, a border of Gallia, Liberty again... And we even managed to jump past the Razgriz Abyss! And that was the moment when Melia, for some reason, became really scared. She even hid behind us.

[09.09.2018 16:16:44] Gossamer: Such an impressive force of nature.
[09.09.2018 16:17:45] Gossamer: This tour of ours is calming, somehow.
[09.09.2018 16:17:49] Nyctophilia: This is just... Something.

[09.09.2018 16:18:03] Gossamer: Not even light escapes it...
[09.09.2018 16:18:26] Gossamer: I've always wondered what's on the other side of an event horizon.
[09.09.2018 16:18:34] Nyctophilia: Nothing.
[09.09.2018 16:18:40] Vagrant.Melia: "Fear. We will be forced to compensate for its presence."
[09.09.2018 16:19:56] Gossamer: Will you be okay to jump, Melia?
[09.09.2018 16:20:13] Nyctophilia: The few things you're afraid of? The nature of space itself?
[09.09.2018 16:20:46] Vagrant.Melia: *The emotional aura is genuine.*
[09.09.2018 16:21:29] Nyctophilia: You're even hiding behind us... That's unusual. You might be understanding more than we do.
[09.09.2018 16:21:36] Gossamer: *Unsure of anything related to telepathy, Kimiko tries to still her mind and appear as a calming presence. She tries to comfort and reassure Melia.*

[09.09.2018 16:37:05] Nyctophilia: Reminds me that locals aren't in peace with the Order anymore.
[09.09.2018 16:37:48] Gossamer: *She breathes a sigh of relief at Melia's calming down*
[09.09.2018 16:39:06] Nyctophilia: Still makes me think that your perception goes way beyond ours.
[09.09.2018 16:39:20] Gossamer: It must.
[09.09.2018 16:39:43] Vagrant.Melia: "We were forged to wander the voids. We must be prepared to do so."
[09.09.2018 16:39:50] Gossamer: But... maybe we can learn.
[09.09.2018 16:41:16] Gossamer: Oh, how I would love to dance among the stars one day...
[09.09.2018 16:41:31] Nyctophilia: Well, they've already told me that I know who they are... So I don't bother.
[09.09.2018 16:42:06] Nyctophilia: The best time is to enjoy their company.
[09.09.2018 16:42:33] Nyctophilia: Well, don't we just dance among the stars?
[09.09.2018 16:42:49] Nyctophilia: With her - yes.
[09.09.2018 16:43:27] Gossamer: But to feel the stars beyond what we can in these forms?
[09.09.2018 16:43:38] Gossamer: Feel the solar wind wash over.
[09.09.2018 16:44:24] Vagrant.Melia: "Darklings are ill prepared. Yet they still attempt."
[09.09.2018 16:45:06] Nyctophilia: If you wish for something like this - sure, be my guest.
[09.09.2018 16:45:34] Gossamer: *She smiles* The Light is warm.
[09.09.2018 16:45:51] Nyctophilia: My one and only wish ever since I've met Melia was to be happy. The happiness I've felt the moment I met her...
[09.09.2018 16:46:18] Nyctophilia: It's inexpressible.
[09.09.2018 16:46:44] Nyctophilia: But she must know.
[09.09.2018 16:46:52] Vagrant.Melia: "It was but a moment."
[09.09.2018 16:47:23] Gossamer: What happened?
[09.09.2018 16:47:34] Nyctophilia: Alas, just a moment to experience something like this. A moment that I remembered for the rest of my life.
[09.09.2018 16:47:37] Vagrant.Melia: "A single shift of thoughts among the great song."
[09.09.2018 16:47:42] Nyctophilia: She... She showed me herself.
[09.09.2018 16:48:12] Nyctophilia: And she told me everything I wanted to know.
[09.09.2018 16:48:31] Gossamer: I... what can I do to have this?
[09.09.2018 16:49:00] Nyctophilia: I just helped them, in a way.
[09.09.2018 16:49:26] Nyctophilia: You... She will speak for herself.
[09.09.2018 16:50:45] Vagrant.Melia: "If the darkling truly seeks closeness, it must embrace the Light in mind and form. Yet, we may still touch it before then."
[09.09.2018 16:51:47] Gossamer: How can I touch it?

[09.09.2018 16:55:40] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia's form seems to dim substantially. It has retreated inward, for the moment.*
[09.09.2018 16:55:44] Gossamer: *She removes her flight suit and steps away from the cockpit. She disables her comms and artificial gravity, stripping down to undergarments and choosing to float like a ragdoll in the main cabin. She closes her eyes and stills her mind, calming down.*
[09.09.2018 16:56:54] Vagrant.Melia: * It begins to glow again, but it is a distinctly softer tone than when it was carving through hyperspace.*

[09.09.2018 16:59:22] Vagrant.Melia: *It would begin to attempt to wrap around the senses of them, to establish a deeper connection of thought.*
[09.09.2018 16:59:51] Gossamer: *Kimi's mind sputters and glows like a young ember in the first coals of a fire, fully embracing the influence of Melia*
[09.09.2018 16:59:56] Vagrant.Melia: *It would also seek Nycto's presence, if they were so inclined.*

[09.09.2018 17:46:25] Vagrant.Melia: *The shifting tones and lights of the background became quite still. Patience indeed.*
[09.09.2018 17:47:33] Gossamer: *She feels the vibes, and reaches out to the serenity of the landscape to calm herself, slowly moving away from her turbulence*

[09.09.2018 17:51:01] Nyctophilia: *"I... am fine, thanks."She notices Kimiko and smiles back*
[09.09.2018 17:51:18] Nyctophilia: *The smile, however, wasn't one of the honest.*
[09.09.2018 17:51:44] Gossamer: "Let go and open yourself to this all. It helps."
[09.09.2018 17:51:48] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia observes the two. Its form has since re-coalesced.*
[09.09.2018 17:52:44] Nyctophilia: *"Well... I'm still twirling the thought about how absurd this whole situation is. I mean, I am a human, and she is... Well.

[09.09.2018 17:54:07] Gossamer: *Her naivete is palpable.*
[09.09.2018 17:54:20] Nyctophilia: *"And that's in the very center of human civilization - in Liberty."*
[09.09.2018 17:54:55] Nyctophilia: *"I do think of her as her... But I also think about the whole situation that is around us."*
[09.09.2018 17:55:00] Vagrant.Melia: "Yet when we turn to the song, there is only the minds of the whole."
[09.09.2018 17:55:13] Nyctophilia: *"And from the other point of few, it is absurd."*
[09.09.2018 17:55:47] Nyctophilia: *"Like, how in the world, -me-, literally none who just became an information broker managed to meet someone like her?"*
[09.09.2018 17:56:00] Nyctophilia: *"And become an alien sympathiser?"*
[09.09.2018 17:56:31] Gossamer: *She giggles* "You don't need to have a reason or explanation for everything. Sometimes things just happen."
[09.09.2018 17:56:46] Gossamer: "Right now, we can be a great big chorus, y'know?"
[09.09.2018 17:57:32] Vagrant.Melia: "In time, all shall be pure."
[09.09.2018 17:58:02] Nyctophilia: *"Just... This all doesn't matches up in my head. But... How can I have feelings for her?"*
[09.09.2018 17:58:39] Gossamer: "When you open your heart to the world, it becomes possible to love everything in it."
[09.09.2018 17:59:48] Nyctophilia: *"You can't love everything. You can tolerate certain things, yes... But love?"*
[09.09.2018 18:00:03] Nyctophilia: *"I didn't even knew what this is. Until I met her."*
[09.09.2018 18:00:26] Vagrant.Melia: "Theirs show promise. They will gain the beauty they seek."
[09.09.2018 18:01:27] Gossamer: "You can love all if you try. Even those who hate you. Humans, Nomads, wild animals, everything... We are all-
[09.09.2018 18:01:33] Gossamer: -the children of stardust."
[09.09.2018 18:02:05] Nyctophilia: *"I just..." She sobs "This is the second time I'm ever happy like that, and... I always have a feeling that it all will go
[09.09.2018 18:02:08] Nyctophilia: away."*
[09.09.2018 18:02:32] Vagrant.Melia: "The Light is eternal. It shall not fade."
[09.09.2018 18:02:48] Gossamer: "We just need to learn to overcome the obstacles keeping us from the Light."
[09.09.2018 18:03:45] Nyctophilia: *"I... Don't know, I always feel like I'm so close to her, and the Light, but at the same time I'm so far away..."*
[09.09.2018 18:05:17] Nyctophilia: *"And I'm just afraid that you might get stuck in the same loop as I am."*
[09.09.2018 18:05:21] Gossamer: "We can't give up because of the distance. Every day we persist, we get closer to staying together."
[09.09.2018 18:07:10] Nyctophilia: *"Yet every day we distance from humanity."*
[09.09.2018 18:07:21] Gossamer: "Maybe one day we can bring others with us?"
[09.09.2018 18:07:49] Nyctophilia: *"I... I think Kath would like to be here some day."*
[09.09.2018 18:08:36] Gossamer: "We should find a way to bring her along."
[09.09.2018 18:08:57] Vagrant.Melia: "The herald must balance both songs and remain shrouded in the darkness. They are in an unusual place."
[09.09.2018 18:09:33] Vagrant.Melia: "They wish unification, yet they are no part of it."
[09.09.2018 18:09:48] Gossamer: "She sacrifices a lot for everyone's sake."
[09.09.2018 18:10:54] Nyctophilia: *"I only hope that her efforts are not going to waste."*
[09.09.2018 18:11:01] Tip: You were a new player once. If you see someone making obvious mistakes, talk to them and help them.
[09.09.2018 18:11:10] Nyctophilia: *"Some think she's a monster, but she's indeedly a great person."*
[09.09.2018 18:12:07] Nyctophilia: *"Not only about what she's doing, but who she is herself."*
[09.09.2018 18:13:16] Gossamer: "I can't wait to sing with her."
[09.09.2018 18:15:07] Nyctophilia: *"I've met with her a couple a times. She's... Well, our world doesn't deserves such persones as her, I'd say."*
[09.09.2018 18:15:30] Vagrant.Melia: "An exception among darklings. They are unique."
[09.09.2018 18:15:31] Nyctophilia: *"I-i-in a good way, don't get me wrong. She's a cutie."*
[09.09.2018 18:16:41] Gossamer: *She smiles* "Would you want to prepare for this?"
[09.09.2018 18:16:58] Nyctophilia: *"Ha. I'm always prepared."*
[09.09.2018 18:17:23] Vagrant.Melia: "Are yours always truly prepared?"
[09.09.2018 18:18:13] Nyctophilia: *"I already said - I went down that hole and I'm not considering how to go out. But I am ready for anything that waits for me
[09.09.2018 18:18:19] Nyctophilia: around the corner."*
[09.09.2018 18:18:32] Vagrant.Melia: "If the Light is subject to natural force, what hope do you have?"
[09.09.2018 18:19:11] Nyctophilia: *"Hope?"*
[09.09.2018 18:19:59] Vagrant.Melia: "It is not relevant."
[09.09.2018 18:20:16] Nyctophilia: *"I never had any hope, I just suppose how things might turn out in certain state of affairs."*
[09.09.2018 18:20:33] Vagrant.Melia: "The voids are filled with absolute traits."
[09.09.2018 18:21:39] Vagrant.Melia: "Wise is the aspect that does not challenge them."
[09.09.2018 18:23:20] Vagrant.Melia: "We accept that which was, that which is, and that which will be."
[09.09.2018 18:24:00] Vagrant.Melia: *Its form disincorporates again, blending into the shifting mindscape.*
[09.09.2018 18:24:10] Gossamer: "The nature of the universe is simultaneously immutable and ever changing."
[09.09.2018 18:24:35] Nyctophilia: *"Being prepared to accept anything. That's what I meant."*
[09.09.2018 18:25:05] Vagrant.Melia: "Such is not untrue."
[09.09.2018 18:25:29] Nyctophilia: *"From that some crazy chick put me on a bounty board just because I stumbled upon their installation to you rejecting me."*
[09.09.2018 18:26:10] Nyctophilia: *"I am always prepared to accept these facts, just because I assume their possibility.*"
[09.09.2018 18:26:51] Nyctophilia: *"Though I am more than certain, there are alot of things that I can't foresee."*
[09.09.2018 18:27:12] Vagrant.Melia: "Amusement. There is much that even we cannot accurately presume."
[09.09.2018 18:28:06] Gossamer: "That is part of the fun of this all, though. Learning new things."
[09.09.2018 18:28:28] Vagrant.Melia: "It is why we must seek."
[09.09.2018 18:28:33] Vagrant.Melia: "It is why we must wander."
[09.09.2018 18:29:37] Vagrant.Melia: "We seek. We learn. We adapt. We evolve."
[09.09.2018 18:29:55] Gossamer: "Grow."
[09.09.2018 18:30:04] Vagrant.Melia: "Yours understand."
[09.09.2018 18:30:38] Gossamer: *Smiles*
[09.09.2018 18:31:08] Vagrant.Melia: "Perhaps you will be ready."
[09.09.2018 18:31:46] Gossamer: "I hope I will be." *She seems very floaty in the mindscape*
[09.09.2018 18:31:50] Vagrant.Melia: "The Light may yet grow."
[09.09.2018 18:32:12] Nyctophilia: *She keeps wrapping Melia's words about themselves in her mind, while still sitting on the floor. "Not something we do..."*
[09.09.2018 18:33:00] Nyctophilia: *"Wish our society was at least that distinct as yours. But alas."*But after this... There was yet an another moment when I was the most happy in my life.
Code:
[09.09.2018 18:33:03] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia's presence wraps around the two, still disincorporated but very much there.*
[09.09.2018 18:33:55] Gossamer: "Doesn't matter what we do now. We can learn and grow despite our species." *She spreads herself out and lets Melia-
[09.09.2018 18:34:03] Gossamer: -envelop her.*
[09.09.2018 18:34:30] Nyctophilia: *Nycto tries her best to give away a very weak smile. "Yeah... Hi."*
[09.09.2018 18:35:41] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia begins to emit a warming sensation. It would feel akin to being at an ideal environmental and bodily temperature.*
[09.09.2018 18:36:32] Gossamer: *Kimi lets the warmth flush over her, enjoying the soul-warming blanket.*
[09.09.2018 18:37:01] Nyctophilia: *"Hm? Is it... Getting a bit warmer? Not hot, not too hot... A perfect warmth... I like that..." Nycto gets comfy in her own
[09.09.2018 18:37:17] Nyctophilia: coat, letting the warmth envelop her.*
[09.09.2018 18:37:46] Vagrant.Melia: "Accept us. Hear our song."
[09.09.2018 18:38:54] Nyctophilia: *"It's warm... I... Like that..." She's too comfortable. "I... Don't want to let go..."*
[09.09.2018 18:39:07] Nyctophilia: *Her eyes are closed.*
[09.09.2018 18:39:26] Gossamer: "We'll be together again. I know it."
[09.09.2018 18:39:56] Vagrant.Melia: *There is... something. Something akin to a voice humming a gentle tune.*
[09.09.2018 18:40:41] Nyctophilia: *Nycto feels the same reminiscent feeling. Comfort level over 9000.*
[09.09.2018 18:40:59] Gossamer: *Kimi's inner singer and musician lights up, and she eagerly joins the song, forming a harmony with it.*
[09.09.2018 18:41:51] Vagrant.Melia: *Then there was nothing in the mindscape. Nothing except the presences, and the sound of the song.*
[09.09.2018 18:43:52] Nyctophilia: *"Seclusion, yes..." She was thinking, still hearing a tune of her favorite song and getting a warm feeling of someone's
[09.09.2018 18:43:57] Nyctophilia: presence."*
[09.09.2018 18:44:04] Gossamer: *Kimi remains on-key, fluctuating between the varying notes and pitches and adding in her vibrato for longer notes.*
[09.09.2018 18:44:07] Nyctophilia: *"Yet an another best day in her life."*
[09.09.2018 18:45:09] Vagrant.Melia: *The song continues, weaving perhaps an unusual melody, but a charming one nonetheless.*
[09.09.2018 18:45:30] Vagrant.Melia: *Euphoria. Bliss. Purity.*
[09.09.2018 18:46:01] Gossamer: *Discovery. Homecoming. Joy.*
[09.09.2018 18:46:30] Nyctophilia: *A lone tear runs down her cheek. "I... Don't want... To let... Go..." She was still enjoying the song's tune.*
[09.09.2018 18:46:57] Gossamer: "Join in."
[09.09.2018 18:47:17] Vagrant.Melia: "Embrace our song."
[09.09.2018 18:48:23] Nyctophilia: *She lets the song consume herself entirely, slowly humming it, still enjoying the warmth and getting comfy.*
[09.09.2018 18:49:39] Vagrant.Melia: *It is but an ever fractional taste of the true thing, but its potency is none less.*
[09.09.2018 18:51:04] Gossamer: *Kimi's individual identity feels ever more bound to the song, harmonizing more and more with it.*
[09.09.2018 18:52:11] Nyctophilia: *Nycto is content with her bound with the song. It slowly grows up onto her, as she was getting more focuced on the feeling of the warmth.*
[09.09.2018 18:52:44] Vagrant.Melia: *It remains a package of gentle sensation.*
[09.09.2018 18:56:15] Nyctophilia: *"Hmm... What is this song? I've never heard it... But it's beautiful..."*
[09.09.2018 18:57:01] Vagrant.Melia: *Song was perhaps an inaccurate description. It was more of a tapestry of thought, brought into an abstract form.*
[09.09.2018 18:58:02] Gossamer: *Kimi's mind rationalized it as music, and it seemed to work well enough for her. She wove her own thoughts lovingly.*
[09.09.2018 18:58:49] Vagrant.Melia: *It was, perhaps most simply, Melia's will of being. Nothing more, nothing less.*
[09.09.2018 19:00:48] Nyctophilia: *Nycto has thrown away all the thoughts, letting herself being consumed by the "song" even further. As she was enjoying the
[09.09.2018 19:00:57] Nyctophilia: warmth way too more.*

[09.09.2018 19:05:28] Vagrant.Melia: *It slowly began to wind down, however. The space of presences began to grow tighter and tighter.*
[09.09.2018 19:05:51] Gossamer: *Kimi did not fight the closing, merely sending her own parting feelings to the other two.*
[09.09.2018 19:06:22] Nyctophilia: *"Hm?" Nycto hastly notices how the presence began to fade away*
[09.09.2018 19:06:51] Nyctophilia: *"The song... And the warmth..."*
[09.09.2018 19:06:58] Vagrant.Melia: *Gradually their perception of the mindscape would fade, as Melia retracted its grasp on their minds.*
[09.09.2018 19:07:08] Gossamer: "Let go~ This isn't the last song we hear." *Her voice fades into the physical world*
[09.09.2018 19:07:19] Vagrant.Melia: *They would soon stir in the real world, back in their ships.*
[09.09.2018 19:07:45] Gossamer: *Kimi wakes up, suspended in zero gravity in the main cabin. Various items have drifted out of position.*
[09.09.2018 19:07:45] Nyctophilia: *"No! Don't go away!" Nycto wakes up in her cabin, with the same teardrop on her right cheek.*
[09.09.2018 19:08:18] Vagrant.Melia: "We have not moved far."

[09.09.2018 19:09:51] Jumping...That tear... It made everything clear. It wasn't a dream. But a reality. I can't rememer if I ever was that happy until this very moment, and I wish anyone could experience something like this in their life at least once.
Moments later, we appeared in Delta... And we saw Kath again. She told that she once experienced something like this, but... I feel sad for her.

[09.09.2018 19:11:15] Nyctophilia: You've missed... Quite alot.

[09.09.2018 19:11:19] Gossamer: The most beautiful thing happened...
[09.09.2018 19:11:26] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I was about to ask. What have you been up to, my friends?
[09.09.2018 19:11:37] Gossamer: We... sang.
[09.09.2018 19:11:38] Nyctophilia: We were on the other side of the Galaxy.
[09.09.2018 19:11:45] Nyctophilia: And... Yeah. Pretty much.
[09.09.2018 19:12:11] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Oh, that sounds wonderful. A shame I was late.
[09.09.2018 19:12:30] Nyctophilia: *she still remembers the comforting warmth* That was... Inexpressible, as always.
[09.09.2018 19:12:34] Vagrant.Melia: "We have reached to them."
[09.09.2018 19:12:45] Gossamer: I never knew I could feel like that, but it feels so right.
[09.09.2018 19:13:02] Vagrant.Melia: "It was but a glimpse. But it has shown much."
[09.09.2018 19:13:05] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Perhaps it was something you were meant to do on your own anyway.
[09.09.2018 19:13:30] Nyctophilia: I'm just sad you weren't with us there.
[09.09.2018 19:14:13] Nyctophilia: Any luck with the person we saw in Taus?
[09.09.2018 19:14:18] Vagrant.Melia: "Patience. The herald likely had other tasks."
[09.09.2018 19:14:29] Gossamer: *She speaks almost as if she were in a light trance* We still carried her light with us.
[09.09.2018 19:14:50] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I've had contact with Aoi, yes. I think she took more from our conversation than I had hoped.
[09.09.2018 19:14:59] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: She may yet have a role to play.
[09.09.2018 19:15:10] Nyctophilia: That's promising.
[09.09.2018 19:15:30] Vagrant.Melia: "The Light demands strength. Yet we are finding it in compassion, not hatred."
[09.09.2018 19:15:39] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: She....reminds me of myself, in some ways, years ago. When I started exploring.
[09.09.2018 19:15:57] Gossamer: Hatred is ample enough in this space. Compassion... not nearly so.
[09.09.2018 19:16:19] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: It's harder to find, at least. But it's out there.
[09.09.2018 19:16:36] Vagrant.Melia: "Follow."
[09.09.2018 19:18:52] Nyctophilia: As empty and calm as ever.
[09.09.2018 19:19:04] Gossamer: Calm? Yes. Empty? Not truly.
[09.09.2018 19:19:51] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I doubt I will ever tire of this view.
[09.09.2018 19:19:57] Nyctophilia: Yeah.
[09.09.2018 19:20:37] Vagrant.Melia: "The worthy shall be brought to purity."
[09.09.2018 19:20:41] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: You've picked up a new ship, Nycto. Or did you have that before?
[09.09.2018 19:20:49] Nyctophilia: I actually did.
[09.09.2018 19:21:09] Gossamer: And then everyone can know that warmth...
[09.09.2018 19:21:59] Nyctophilia: Today was just... Something.
[09.09.2018 19:22:18] Nyctophilia: I can't tell exactly what, but it was beyond my comprehension.
[09.09.2018 19:22:24] Nyctophilia: I was just... Way too happy.
[09.09.2018 19:22:44] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Oh, you're making me jealous now! *laughing lightly*
[09.09.2018 19:23:00] Gossamer: We sang together so beautifully!
[09.09.2018 19:23:09] Gossamer: It was the most beautiful weave.
[09.09.2018 19:23:17] Nyctophilia: I'm just trying to understand what happened... But it's not an emotional happiness, no.
[09.09.2018 19:23:22] Nyctophilia: Something other, the real one.
[09.09.2018 19:23:35] Nyctophilia: I wasn't that happy in a while.
[09.09.2018 19:23:38] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I know what you mean. It doesn't come often.
[09.09.2018 19:24:19] Gossamer: *She cannot help but dance around her cabin over comms*
[09.09.2018 19:25:05] Vagrant.Melia: "There will be much. But it will come in time."
[09.09.2018 19:25:31] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Well, your mood is certainly infectuous! Even if you can't describe what you saw and felt.
[09.09.2018 19:26:24] Nyctophilia: I can't describe what I saw, but I know what I certainly felt.
[09.09.2018 19:26:33] Nyctophilia: And believe me, it was the best feeling in my life.
[09.09.2018 19:27:16] Gossamer: It was like music you could see and feel and... Everything.
[09.09.2018 19:27:22] Gossamer: Like the most beautiful blanket.
[09.09.2018 19:27:34] Nyctophilia: The perfect warmth. Not too hot, but not too cold. Just as it fits. And a presence of the a tune... It was calm, pure and...
[09.09.2018 19:27:44] Nyctophilia: The most beautiful I've ever heard.
[09.09.2018 19:28:23] Nyctophilia: And in a moment it just disappeard...
[09.09.2018 19:29:05] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: The opportunity to revel in this euphoria is what we're working towards. It's a shame so few understand.
[09.09.2018 19:29:18] RV-Pennybrooke: If they had felt what you did, no doubt anyone would.
[09.09.2018 19:29:22] Nyctophilia: I was about to tear down if I didn't thought it was a dream.
[09.09.2018 19:29:39] Nyctophilia: But... There was a single tear, when I woke up.
[09.09.2018 19:30:28] Nyctophilia: A teardrop that made it clear that this is wasn't a dream at all.
[09.09.2018 19:30:32] Vagrant.Melia: "Our song proved vibrant."
[09.09.2018 19:31:05] Gossamer: Our minds, our thoughts, our feelings... we felt them as if we were the same person, almost.
[09.09.2018 19:32:12] Nyctophilia: I was just... Too enveloped by the warmth and a song to pay attention to anything else.
[09.09.2018 19:32:48] Nyctophilia: I told that I never hope, but in this case, I hope you ever get to experience something like this at any point in your life.
[09.09.2018 19:33:52] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I've....been in similar moments, I think, but of course I cannot say for certain.
[09.09.2018 19:35:58] Death: RFP|Munchen.Wachter was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[09.09.2018 19:36:03] Gossamer: *She stops dancing, lying down on a couch and staring up at the skylight*
[09.09.2018 19:36:31] Nyctophilia: Still the same. *She gives away a true smile.*
[09.09.2018 19:37:50] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I'm just happy to be seeing you like this. I'm sure it helped you overcome the remaining...dark from your past.
[09.09.2018 19:38:25] Nyctophilia: But what about you?
[09.09.2018 19:38:31] Vagrant.Melia: "Theirs may still be dark in form, but they shall change swiftly."
[09.09.2018 19:40:01] Gossamer: It'll be exciting...
[09.09.2018 19:40:02] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *sighing* I'm not sure how long I will have to wait. Whatever is necessary for my tasks.
[09.09.2018 19:40:31] Nyctophilia: Well, pretty sure we still can be friends till this time comes, right?
[09.09.2018 19:41:26] Gossamer: We'll walk together.
[09.09.2018 19:41:32] Vagrant.Melia: "The herald still holds a strong obligation with the Bretheren. They will remain as they are."
[09.09.2018 19:41:48] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: *warmly* I'll always be friends with those that I share the ideals we hold with.
[09.09.2018 19:42:18] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Our paths won't be identical, but they have the same destination.
[09.09.2018 19:42:27] Gossamer: We'll always be family.
[09.09.2018 19:42:40] Nyctophilia: Our goal is the same.
[09.09.2018 19:43:28] Vagrant.Melia: "The Light shall endure."
[09.09.2018 19:44:20] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: That's the most wonderful thing. To be on this path, only requires you to share a common love.
[09.09.2018 19:46:01] Gossamer: I swear I'll pursue this path to its end. I want to be part of that chorus.
[09.09.2018 19:46:32] Nyctophilia: Just a glimpse of that feeling...
[09.09.2018 19:46:41] Vagrant.Melia: "Yours show much promise. We will soon be ready."
[09.09.2018 19:47:03] Nyctophilia: I don't care what the other will think about it, I will
[09.09.2018 19:47:10] Nyctophilia: do anything to experience it again.
[09.09.2018 19:47:22] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: And I will be by your side, all of yours.
[09.09.2018 19:48:56] Gossamer: *She seems incredibly at peace*
[09.09.2018 19:49:19] Nyctophilia: Just... I can't express my gratitude for what have you provided me today, Melia.
[09.09.2018 19:49:23] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: I have more treading in the dark to do, but I suppose that will just make me enjoy these moments more.
[09.09.2018 19:49:31] Nyctophilia: I simply can't.
[09.09.2018 19:49:48] Vagrant.Melia: "The Light must further its preparation."
[09.09.2018 19:51:01] Gossamer: Growing is a never-ending process. We are all the better for it.
[09.09.2018 19:51:47] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Mm, indeed. I've never been particularly, er, spontaneous. When you're planning for lifetimes....
[09.09.2018 19:52:03] RV-Pennybrooke: You had best not rush things.
[09.09.2018 19:52:38] Nyctophilia: Oh, I have all the time in my life. Besides, the rest of society still considers me as an information broker.
[09.09.2018 19:52:40] Gossamer: I will go where my heart follows. And I will temper it with my mind.
[09.09.2018 19:53:22] Nyctophilia: And information is a valuable tool, not many realise it.
[09.09.2018 19:53:53] Nyctophilia: For thos who can't share it like Melia's kind.And then... The usual. We went to the bar and we had an another fun time. All three of us.
Code:
[09.09.2018 20:19:24] Nyctophilia: ?: Yeah, uhm. Why are we still in a space? Aren't we here for a bar?
[09.09.2018 20:19:39] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Good point.
[09.09.2018 20:19:48] Gossamer: True.
[09.09.2018 20:19:51] 2018-09-09 20:19:50 SMT Traffic control alert: Nyctophilia has requested to dock
[09.09.2018 20:19:56] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine: Well. Time for some well-earned drinks.
[09.09.2018 20:20:00] 2018-09-09 20:20:00 SMT Traffic control alert: RV-Pennybrooke has requested to dock
[09.09.2018 20:20:00] Nyctophilia: ?: Will see you all there!
[09.09.2018 20:20:06] 2018-09-09 20:20:05 SMT Traffic control alert: Gossamer has requested to dock
[09.09.2018 20:20:27] Nyctophilia: *After the same mooring proceedure, Nycto walks to the same bar she met Kath in.*
[09.09.2018 20:21:40] Gossamer: *An olive-skinned, black-haired individual walks into the bar. She appears rather tall and androgynous, a far cry from the mental image Nycto saw earlier. She scans the bar for her compatriots.*
[09.09.2018 20:21:41] Nyctophilia: *That very table in the farther corner was once again free, so she took a seat to the left, leaving a space for two her friends*
[09.09.2018 20:22:41] RV-Pennybrooke: Katherine enters the bar shortly after, nearly running into another patron as her gaze is fixated on her commpad.
[09.09.2018 20:23:29] RV-Pennybrooke: She finishes whatever she was typing and scans the bar with a mildly confused gaze.
[09.09.2018 20:23:31] Nyctophilia: *Nycto's attention was fixed on her watch, as she was pinging both of them on the commpads to show her location.*
[09.09.2018 20:24:24] RV-Pennybrooke: Her appearance is unchanged from the last time Nycto saw her. Red hair in a messy bun, well-worn spacesuit*
[09.09.2018 20:25:20] Nyctophilia: *Same goes for Nycto. Medium brown shortuct, a coat and jeans. She smiled at Kath as she was approaching her.*
[09.09.2018 20:25:26] Gossamer: The ping arrived, and Kimi moved towards its source. She gave a smile to the two as she walked up, adjusting her orange flight suit and moving one of her long curly locks away from her face.
[09.09.2018 20:26:01] Gossamer: Kimi easily towers over the other two, though she tries to keep her posture lower.
[09.09.2018 20:26:36] RV-Pennybrooke: *After a brief search, she slumps unceremoniously at their table, beaming at the pair* "It's wonderful to have you both here."
[09.09.2018 20:27:06] Nyctophilia: *She then smiles at Kimi* "Welp, let's get to the introductions. Kath already knows my "name"." *She makes up the air quotes*
[09.09.2018 20:27:28] Nyctophilia: "[REDACTED], or [REDACTED], just so it will be easily for you."
[09.09.2018 20:27:48] Gossamer: Kimi goes to sit down a bit more gracefully, nodding. "Kimiko Hawkins. Kimi for short."
[09.09.2018 20:29:27] RV-Pennybrooke: "Well, you both know me." *She pauses awkwardly, then leans forward to get up.* "Er....shall I get us some drinks?"
[09.09.2018 20:29:30] Nyctophilia: "Pleasure. Now, we all know a miss "harbinger of your perfection" over there" Words in quotes were rather silencd.*
[09.09.2018 20:30:11] Nyctophilia: *"Sure, if you don't mind. You know my taste."*
[09.09.2018 20:30:40] RV-Pennybrooke: *Without waiting for a response, Katherine skips back over to the bar, returning with three mostly-clear beverages.*
[09.09.2018 20:30:52] Gossamer: "Just some water for me, please," she requests, fishing around her pocket for something.
[09.09.2018 20:31:50] RV-Pennybrooke: *Upon hearing Kimiko's request, she quickly swivels around and returns carefully clutching four glasses, one of water*
[09.09.2018 20:32:46] RV-Pennybrooke: "One of this place's charms, Edge Worlds Mystery liquor. Is it some sort of vodka? Is it engine degreaser? Nobody knows!"
[09.09.2018 20:33:17] RV-Pennybrooke: *She smiles at her companions through eyes that don't see enough shutting time*
[09.09.2018 20:33:50] Gossamer: Kimi quietly uses a small cardamine inhaler to re-energize herself, and then takes her water. "Thank you."
[09.09.2018 20:34:42] Nyctophilia: *Nycto takes a look at beverage and takes a bit of a smell of it.*
[09.09.2018 20:35:17] Nyctophilia: *"Ew... No, it smells nothing but a degreaser. But something different."*
[09.09.2018 20:36:11] Nyctophilia: *"Yeah, they, ugh, they have their own kind of recipie around here..."*
[09.09.2018 20:36:27] RV-Pennybrooke: *Katherine takes a generous gulp of hers, shuddering.* "I'm sorry if I seem a bit, er, out of it. I'm focusing."
[09.09.2018 20:37:24] RV-Pennybrooke: *Her body gives a little quiver of delight* "But I can't tell you how happy I am to be here with both of you!"
[09.09.2018 20:37:39] RV-Pennybrooke: "You're really making me feel like everything is falling into place!"
[09.09.2018 20:38:11] Nyctophilia: *Trying to not repeat Kath's mistake, Nycto takes a slightly smaller shot. Could have been worse.*
[09.09.2018 20:38:40] Gossamer: Kimi quietly nurses her water, taking small gulps every now and then.
[09.09.2018 20:39:17] Nyctophilia: *"Mm.. Hmm! Yeah, they're definitely adding something into this."*
[09.09.2018 20:40:30] Nyctophilia: *"You know... Just recently I started to feel like a part of that... Thing. Even if you were telling me if I was before."*
[09.09.2018 20:41:16] RV-Pennybrooke: *Katherine smiles, leaning back* "Maybe I knew before you? Or maybe I was just practicing wishful thinking."
[09.09.2018 20:41:51] Nyctophilia: *"Mayhaps... I just hope that everyone in our company gets what they want in their own time."*
[09.09.2018 20:42:07] Gossamer: "What does everyone want, deep down?"
[09.09.2018 20:42:35] RV-Pennybrooke: *A hint of bitterness seems to pass over Katherine's smiling face* "I'm sure we will. Like I always say, patience."
[09.09.2018 20:43:05] Nyctophilia: *"Deep down? I think my own deepest wishes were uncovered today."*
[09.09.2018 20:43:10] RV-Pennybrooke: *She gives Kimi's sleeve a gentle tug* Do you not drink as a matter of conviction, or are you just being polite?"
[09.09.2018 20:43:48] Gossamer: She giggles. "I just don't like it."
[09.09.2018 20:44:12] Death: C.Plank suffered a self-inflicted catastrophic decompression.
[09.09.2018 20:44:29] RV-Pennybrooke: *She takes another sizable sip* "Ah well. To be honest, I doubt I could deal with half the shit I do without."
[09.09.2018 20:45:07] Nyctophilia: *"Hm... Yeah, I knew a few guys who didn't liked drinks. But still, they were alot of fun."*
[09.09.2018 20:45:28] Gossamer: "My beliefs carry me through the day. Little snippets of warmth in my thoughts."
[09.09.2018 20:47:25] RV-Pennybrooke: *Her tone shifts to slightly more melancholy* "Oh, I know. I tend to overthink things. What's the plan, what's the next step."
[09.09.2018 20:47:46] RV-Pennybrooke: "Sometimes I struggle to let go and enjoy the moment. But I won't do that now!"
[09.09.2018 20:48:01] Nyctophilia: *"You better do."*
[09.09.2018 20:48:44] Gossamer: "Relaxation is key for the song, that much I learned."
[09.09.2018 20:49:33] Nyctophilia: *"Hmm... Don't know, I wasn't quite relaxed, but focused - yes."*
[09.09.2018 20:50:24] Nyctophilia: *"Or well... In the moment when the warm feeling appeared... I just couldn't resist, I literally melted."*
[09.09.2018 20:51:05] Nyctophilia: *[REDACTED] scans the bar once again. And again, the same picture. Core goons a few tables away, laughing hard and getting drunk to tarnation.*
[09.09.2018 20:51:35] Nyctophilia: *And The Order agents in the very opposite side of the bar, with quite serious faces.*
[09.09.2018 20:51:50] RV-Pennybrooke: *Katherine watches the two intently, happily soaking up their narration while sipping her horrible drink*
[09.09.2018 20:52:07] Gossamer: "I just had to apply what I already have felt my whole life."
[09.09.2018 20:53:20] Nyctophilia: *She notices a bounty board with her name on it. That's no good.*
[09.09.2018 20:54:08] Nyctophilia: *She refocuses on the bounty board. "Hmpf."*
[09.09.2018 20:55:22] Nyctophilia: *She takes away her gaze and stares into the entrance, as always*
[09.09.2018 20:55:56] Nyctophilia: *"So, yeah... What's aboutthat Aoi person, Kath?"*
[09.09.2018 20:56:38] RV-Pennybrooke: *Katherine scans the bar again, her eyes darting around quickly* "Hm? Oh yes. Well. She's uncertain of her path."
[09.09.2018 20:57:25] RV-Pennybrooke: "That much I know. But she's interested, she's just looking for her way now. She wants to roam for a while, searching."
[09.09.2018 20:58:04] Nyctophilia: *"Good to hear. At least there's a probability of her being not as hostile as she was."*
[09.09.2018 20:58:09] RV-Pennybrooke: *She smiles again, shaking her head* "Exactly like me, five years ago. She showed me some of her art too, she's very talented!"
[09.09.2018 20:59:42] RV-Pennybrooke: "She mentioned Bering, too. Actually....I was thinking about a trip there. I've heard there was some sort of conflict situation
[09.09.2018 20:59:56] Nyctophilia: *"Ugh... Bering."*
[09.09.2018 20:59:57] RV-Pennybrooke: Don't know many details." *She drains her glass*
[09.09.2018 21:00:44] Nyctophilia: *"Yeah, I happened to be there once in a while. And I can say that it's one of the most unclear hot points."*
[09.09.2018 21:01:07] Nyctophilia: *"On one side - Separatists, on the other side - Pirates, and on the other - Liberty."*
[09.09.2018 21:01:26] Gossamer: "A prime example of people at each other's throats over nothing."
[09.09.2018 21:02:05] Nyctophilia: *"And I even heard that Separatists were along with Pirates for a while... Until something happened."*
[09.09.2018 21:02:14] RV-Pennybrooke: *She sighs heavily, before helping herself to Kimiko's untouched drink.* "Well. I do try to follow conflicts if I can."
[09.09.2018 21:02:37] RV-Pennybrooke: "It's not really fun work, but it's helpful to know more. I might have to make a trip."
[09.09.2018 21:03:15] Gossamer: "For the brighter side of things."
[09.09.2018 21:03:45] Nyctophilia: *"Yeah, well, I've been in twenty-one today and soldiers of Rheinwehr asked me to fulfill yet an another visa."*
[09.09.2018 21:04:22] Nyctophilia: *"And I was surfing the Neural Net just to find any registration points or blanks, but there was none."*
[09.09.2018 21:04:23] RV-Pennybrooke: "Huh. They didn't give me much trouble last time, but they did ask a lot of questions. Well, it's not surprising really."
[09.09.2018 21:05:27] RV-Pennybrooke: "Lots of mercenaries involved in the conflict. I suppose it's to be expected that they're suspicious."
[09.09.2018 21:05:34] Nyctophilia: *"Even now..." She opens a small hologram on her watch with Rheingov Portal "I still haven't got a clue what they want of me."*
[09.09.2018 21:06:26] Nyctophilia: *"But they said that they'll include me just because I didn't came for a fight. Yeah."*
[09.09.2018 21:07:15] Nyctophilia: *She closes the hologram and continues to stare at the doorway.*
[09.09.2018 21:07:21] RV-Pennybrooke: *She shrugs* "Probably lower ranks unsure about their exact orders for a situation like that. They might not even have any."
[09.09.2018 21:07:50] Gossamer: Kimiko's interest seems to have wandered from the conversation, and she appears to be people-watching.
[09.09.2018 21:08:51] Nyctophilia: *"The most interesting part was when I saw a pilot of the Naval Forces coming for some ranting."*
[09.09.2018 21:08:59] Nyctophilia: *"Right in front of Bayern."*
[09.09.2018 21:09:44] Nyctophilia: *"And Rheinwehr were ranting too, you won't believe me. Instead of doing things, as they usualy do, they were talking."*
[09.09.2018 21:09:47] RV-Pennybrooke: "For some ranting....at you?"
[09.09.2018 21:09:56] Nyctophilia: *"Nope. At Rheinwehr."*
[09.09.2018 21:10:24] RV-Pennybrooke: "Ah. Perhaps they're realizing how utterly stupid the whole thing is."
[09.09.2018 21:11:43] Gossamer: She finishes her water and places the glass down, half-listening to the conversation.
[09.09.2018 21:13:36] Nyctophilia: *"No. Their whole talking was about how Rheinland has no honor and how Kusari went too far and etcetera."*
[09.09.2018 21:14:54] RV-Pennybrooke: "Hm. Did they not have the correct fleet makeup to take each other on, or were they just unwilling?"
[09.09.2018 21:14:55] Nyctophilia: *"Thing is - they both looked dumb in this situation."*
[09.09.2018 21:15:45] Nyctophilia: *"Nope. I mean, there was one Bismarck on Rheiwehr's side. But from zero to no capital ships on Kusari side."*
[09.09.2018 21:16:43] Nyctophilia: *"I think that both sides realise that this is plain futile."*
[09.09.2018 21:16:57] RV-Pennybrooke: "Ah well. It's an exercise in futility, the whole thing. They can see that."
[09.09.2018 21:17:55] Nyctophilia: *She turns at Kimi. "What do you have to say about it, Kimi?"*
[09.09.2018 21:18:17] Nyctophilia: *"You're rather silent."*
[09.09.2018 21:20:13] Gossamer: She comes back into focus. "Hm? Oh, um, I think it'd better if they realized how pointless the fighting was."
[09.09.2018 21:20:31] Gossamer: "But... I feel that about a lot of things."
[09.09.2018 21:20:49] Nyctophilia: *She stares deeply into her. "Anything on your mind?"*
[09.09.2018 21:21:32] Gossamer: "Just watching the people around here, y'know? I like feeling present in a place and almost feeling the life in it."
[09.09.2018 21:22:38] RV-Pennybrooke: *Katherine smiles at her, and slowly looks over the crowd.* "I know what you mean."
[09.09.2018 21:23:06] Nyctophilia: *"Hmm..." She averts her gaze from Kimiko, staring back into the doorway.*
[09.09.2018 21:23:42] Gossamer: "I love watching life go by. In all forms."
[09.09.2018 21:24:21] Nyctophilia: *"Hmm... Yeah, there is something relaxing in it. Makes you ponder on alot of things."*
[09.09.2018 21:24:53] Gossamer: "Even though the Light says otherwise... I've always felt like all living things share a deep connection."
[09.09.2018 21:26:00] RV-Pennybrooke: "I think it's hard for them to imagine it. They must imagine that one is completely isolated, without a connection-
[09.09.2018 21:26:08] RV-Pennybrooke: like theirs. But of course, we aren't."
[09.09.2018 21:26:09] Nyctophilia: *"Technically - you're not wrong. We all have one thing in common - DNA."*
[09.09.2018 21:26:57] Gossamer: "To embrace that we're brothers and sisters of everything..," she trails off, shaking her head. "God, that sounds weird."
[09.09.2018 21:28:39] Nyctophilia: *"You have to embrace that aliens are your brothers and sisters. To accept it into your heart. And reject the rest of humanity, since they will hate you for it."*
[09.09.2018 21:29:08] RV-Pennybrooke: "I was thinking this, a while back in the conversation. How mad it would sound to most people. Even though, in context, everything makes perfect sense."
[09.09.2018 21:29:28] Gossamer: "I love even those who hate me."
[09.09.2018 21:31:51] RV-Pennybrooke: *she perks up at the last comment* "It's what I've been saying all along. I do what I do because I love humans."
[09.09.2018 21:32:19] RV-Pennybrooke: "If people knew, they would think I want to destroy civilization because I hate humanity, but it's the opposite!"
[09.09.2018 21:32:20] Nyctophilia: *"That's why we love you, Kimi." She looks at her, giving a soft smile.*
[09.09.2018 21:33:00] Gossamer: She smiles back. "Some people, like that freelancer, think that's crazy."
[09.09.2018 21:33:17] Nyctophilia: *Then she hastly stares back into the doorway.*
[09.09.2018 21:33:58] Nyctophilia: *"Uhm... Najad?"*
[09.09.2018 21:34:15] Gossamer: "Naiad, yeah."
[09.09.2018 21:35:13] Nyctophilia: *"She just needs a slow approach, like Aoi."*
[09.09.2018 21:35:42] RV-Pennybrooke: *She turns to Nycto* "What do you think is going to come through that doorway, Nycto? You've been watching it for a long time."
[09.09.2018 21:36:26] Nyctophilia: *"Oh, I'm just watching people walking in and walking out."*
[09.09.2018 21:37:30] RV-Pennybrooke: "Nobody's coming for you here, you know. If you're worried about that."
[09.09.2018 21:37:54] Nyctophilia: *"I am not. Nobody knows my face except for you two."*
[09.09.2018 21:38:04] Nyctophilia: *"And well... Azhi."*
[09.09.2018 21:39:14] Gossamer: "Azhi?"
[09.09.2018 21:39:21] RV-Pennybrooke: "Well. The Samarrans might be strange, but they fight for the same cause."
[09.09.2018 21:39:26] Nyctophilia: *She averts her gaze from the doorway, staring at a group of the Order agents in the other side of the bar."*]
[09.09.2018 21:39:35] Nyctophilia: *"A Raider."*
[09.09.2018 21:41:02] Gossamer: "Other seekers?"
[09.09.2018 21:41:23] Nyctophilia: *"Well... You can't call them seekers, they're the ones who help -them-."*
[09.09.2018 21:41:45] RV-Pennybrooke: *Her gaze drifts away* "More than that. They've been some of the first I found that follow the path."
[09.09.2018 21:44:03] Nyctophilia: *"Azhi was the one whom I was selling most of the information I was gathering around."*
[09.09.2018 21:44:27] Nyctophilia: *"Most recent - Order getting kicked out of Alpha."*
[09.09.2018 21:44:57] Nyctophilia: *"And, well... He was the one who introduced me to Melia."*
[09.09.2018 21:45:30] RV-Pennybrooke: *She laughs dryly* "Well....we did have something to do with the whole Order thing, I suppose."
[09.09.2018 21:48:36] Nyctophilia: *Deep sigh. "I just hope that this doesn't goes away. Like an ultimate turn of odds, when we all become an enemy to each other.
[09.09.2018 21:48:42] Nyctophilia: Would be the worst outcome."*
[09.09.2018 21:49:02] Gossamer: "The waves will always change. But what was will come again, for better or worse."
[09.09.2018 21:49:40] RV-Pennybrooke: *Katherine drains the last of Kimi's intended drink* "It's a trick of the brain. It's nervous about bliss, so it invents doubts
[09.09.2018 21:49:56] RV-Pennybrooke: to keep you on edge. It doesn't really mean anything."
[09.09.2018 21:50:53] Nyctophilia: *"Yeah, I know... Today was just... Agh, today was just too good to be true. Melia, you..."*
[09.09.2018 21:51:04] Nyctophilia: *"I must reassure that I'm not sleeping."*
[09.09.2018 21:51:38] Gossamer: Kimi shakes her head.
[09.09.2018 21:52:39] RV-Pennybrooke: *She sighs* "On the other hand, I can't become complacent with comfort. I think I will head to Rheinland."
[09.09.2018 21:53:08] RV-Pennybrooke: "I'll examine this conflict, and maybe trace Aoi. I've been too long in the edge. I can't stay forever."
[09.09.2018 21:53:15] Gossamer: "Oh... You're leaving the Omicrons?"
[09.09.2018 21:53:47] RV-Pennybrooke: *She smiles warmly at Kimi* "Only for a while. Rheinland is the closest house, I won't be too distant."
[09.09.2018 21:55:13] Gossamer: The girl nods, smiling softly. "We'll meet again soon."
[09.09.2018 21:55:44] Nyctophilia: *NyctoWatch suddenly forms a holografic star map of the Sirius sector. "Lies. The closest house is Liberty."*
[09.09.2018 21:56:35] RV-Pennybrooke: *She slowly lifts herself up from the bench* "Er, well. That's a corridor I really don't want to be taking."
[09.09.2018 21:57:01] Nyctophilia: *"Well, in this case - yeah, Rheinland is closer."*
[09.09.2018 21:57:40] Nyctophilia: *"Will be seeing you, Kath!"*
[09.09.2018 21:58:25] RV-Pennybrooke: *she puts one hand on each of their shoulders* "I've put in a fairly sizeable advance. Order anything you want. Space calls."
[09.09.2018 21:58:45] RV-Pennybrooke: "She gives them both a squeeze* "Of course you'll see me, sooner rather than later."
[09.09.2018 21:58:57] Gossamer: Kimi nods, smiling. "I'll try to surprise you with something when you come back."
[09.09.2018 22:00:25] RV-Pennybrooke: *She hesitates for another moment, then turns to leave the bar.*
[09.09.2018 22:00:40] Nyctophilia: *"And actually, -" She takes a look at her watch, which, surprisingly, farmed the actual holografic clock.*
[09.09.2018 22:01:49] Nyctophilia: *"I'll be on my way too." She stands up, straightening up her coat.*
[09.09.2018 22:02:24] Nyctophilia: *"See you around, Kimiko!" She waved, as she was walking outta the bar.*This day was... Too good. But I can't afford myself to be relaxed for way too long. I must stay frosty in case if odds do turn around not in my favor.

I-eh... I think I'll write down what happened in the last two days in this one log.
So... Yesterday I've met with Kimiko and the rest, but... She was completely different. She lost her left eye, but it wasn't any simple injury... The place where her eye was completely clear, except... There was no eye at all. A complete void.
Code:
[15.09.2018 20:45:46] Nyctophilia: Every time I go there, I feel like I am unwelcomed.
[15.09.2018 20:45:51] Gossamer: *She takes a deep breath*
[15.09.2018 20:46:19] Volcarona: Katherine: You're certainly welcomed. I just- I can't believe how wrong things went last time.
[15.09.2018 20:46:35] Volcarona: Katherine: I feel awful about that. Have either of you heard from the poor boy?
[15.09.2018 20:46:40] Nyctophilia: Nope.
[15.09.2018 20:46:42] Gossamer: What happened?
[15.09.2018 20:47:07] Nyctophilia: I will let Kath tell all the story.
[15.09.2018 20:47:13] Nyctophilia: Since she's here now.
[15.09.2018 20:47:15] Volcarona: Katherine: *sighs heavily* I brought a young man here, Unioner. He was very....interested in the Light.
[15.09.2018 20:47:38] Volcarona: Katherine: I know it was risky, but he had an open heart and I thought it would work out.
[15.09.2018 20:48:07] Volcarona: Katherine: Unfortunately, John freaking Silverstone followed and refused to leave when we asked for privacy.
[15.09.2018 20:48:32] Volcarona: Katherine: The Lights showed up, but they were wary and confusion reigned.
[15.09.2018 20:48:55] Volcarona: Katherine: Then, the Unioner's damn wingmate decided to follow as well, and it was too much.
[15.09.2018 20:49:13] Volcarona: Katherine: The Unioner ships were destroyed, I don't know if they made it out.
[15.09.2018 20:49:32] Gossamer: I see...
[15.09.2018 20:50:14] Gossamer: I want to believe they lived.
[15.09.2018 20:50:15] Volcarona: Katherine: It's all very frustrating, because I really believed in the boy. If he did make it out, I doubt he'll want anything-
[15.09.2018 20:50:21] Volcarona: to do with us after that.
[15.09.2018 20:50:50] Nyctophilia: And... That was the first time I ever saw you getting so angry at anyone in person.
[15.09.2018 20:51:21] Volcarona: Katherine: It felt awful, it's not like me and I don't want to feel that way. I just couldn't believe somebody I wanted to work
[15.09.2018 20:51:35] Volcarona: with would disrespect my wishes in that way.
[15.09.2018 20:51:58] Gossamer: I can help bring him to the Light.
[15.09.2018 20:52:10] Nyctophilia: Not John, no.
[15.09.2018 20:52:21] Nyctophilia: But if the boy survived - we all look for this.
[15.09.2018 20:53:08] Nyctophilia: John is... Hopeless at this stage.
[15.09.2018 20:53:17] Gossamer: *She looks at something in her hand, then closes it shut*
[15.09.2018 20:53:22] Volcarona: Katherine: I met him in Rheinland and had a nice chat at Kreuzberg's bar. He's a kind, genuine individual.
[15.09.2018 20:53:47] Volcarona: Not John, obviously. I thought John would be useful, but clearly that was a lapse of judgement on my part.
[15.09.2018 20:55:38] Nyctophilia: Still, I hope we will get to see him one day. And know him in person more.
[15.09.2018 20:55:41] Volcarona: *sighs* Anyway, enough of that. What's your story, Kimi? I really need some reassurances here.
[15.09.2018 20:55:56] Nyctophilia: Uhm...
[15.09.2018 20:55:59] Gossamer: I... Maybe she can explain. *She points to Melia*
[15.09.2018 20:56:04] Volcarona: Katherine: Oh, Melia's here too! Wonderful.
[15.09.2018 20:56:23] Nyctophilia: Hi.
[15.09.2018 20:56:30] Volcarona: Katherine: It's me, I'm just on my other ship. Well, obviously you can tell that.
[15.09.2018 20:57:14] Vagrant.Melia: "Yours used such a shell before. It is known."
[15.09.2018 20:57:41] Volcarona: Katherine: Yes, I mostly use it when I need more cargo space, but today, it's just for leisure.
[15.09.2018 20:58:29] Nyctophilia: ...What kind of connection Melia has to your lost eye?
[15.09.2018 20:59:18] Gossamer: *She removes her helmet, letting her hair fall over her suit* It's not Melia, but...
[15.09.2018 21:00:31] Nyctophilia: Come on, no need to be so shy.
[15.09.2018 21:01:21] Gossamer: *She removes her eyepatch. There is no evidence of an injury. Merely a bottomless void where the eye was.*
[15.09.2018 21:02:07] Volcarona: *Katherine let's out a silent gasp*
[15.09.2018 21:02:24] Volcarona: What- what is that...?
[15.09.2018 21:02:29] Nyctophilia: *as Nycto sees the video transmission, she covers her mouth with her right wrist*
[15.09.2018 21:02:49] Nyctophilia: That's... That's no injury. What happened to you, Kimi?
[15.09.2018 21:03:02] Vagrant.Melia: *It repositions itself near the ferry.*
[15.09.2018 21:03:41] Vagrant.Melia: "It has happened."
[15.09.2018 21:04:31] Volcarona: Katherine: *gleefully* You're touched by them. But how? I've never seen anything like it before.
[15.09.2018 21:05:06] Nyctophilia: But... *she touches her own eyes* I've been through it too. And yet nothing happened to me.
[15.09.2018 21:05:10] Gossamer: *Kimiko removes her right glove and takes out a small purple, crystal ring. The moment she puts it on, her left eye begins to emit a massive spectra of color*
[15.09.2018 21:06:17] Volcarona: *Katherine's eyes and mouth widen* There's so much more that I haven't seen...I never imagined...
[15.09.2018 21:07:19] Nyctophilia: *she still watches her in awe* N... No...
[15.09.2018 21:08:29] Gossamer: *Kimi appears completely consumed in whatever is causing this phenomenon. Her right eye begins to glow purple, and her mouth is agape.*
[15.09.2018 21:08:41] Nyctophilia: N-now I know why the clinic can't help you...
[15.09.2018 21:09:57] Volcarona: Katherine: To....to think you had a bad run in with a heckler at the Freeport...
[15.09.2018 21:10:57] Gossamer: *Kimi remains completely absorbed, most likely operating in some other capacity right now.*
[15.09.2018 21:12:21] Nyctophilia: I can not even imagine of what she is thinking right now...
[15.09.2018 21:12:23] Volcarona: Katherine: You're already feeling like they are, in some way, aren't you. I wonder what you're feeling now.
[15.09.2018 21:14:33] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia remains close to the ferry.*
[15.09.2018 21:16:42] Vagrant.Melia: *Its presence seems to be just as oblivious as Kimiko is to its surroundings, only a passive glance seems to be present.*
[15.09.2018 21:18:57] Gossamer: *Kimiko's nose begins to bleed.*
[15.09.2018 21:19:13] Volcarona: Katherine: I, uhm. I wonder if I should- oh my goodness!
[15.09.2018 21:19:24] Nyctophilia: Oh no-o-o, that's no good.
[15.09.2018 21:20:01] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia started to gain distance from the ferry.*
[15.09.2018 21:20:06] Gossamer: *Slowly and shaking, she removed the ring from her finger. The glowing ceased and Kimi collapsed.*
[15.09.2018 21:20:16] Nyctophilia: And no, I am not leaving her here, if that's what you are thinking.
[15.09.2018 21:20:33] Vagrant.Melia: *Its focus returned to the others.*
[15.09.2018 21:21:39] Nyctophilia: No... no-no-no-no-no!
[15.09.2018 21:21:59] Nyctophilia: Grrh... If only...
[15.09.2018 21:22:03] Gossamer: *She seemed to be resting contentedly*
[15.09.2018 21:22:06] Volcarona: Katherine: Kimi?! Are you okay? Can you hear us?
[15.09.2018 21:22:23] Vagrant.Melia: "Patience. Theirs requires time."
[15.09.2018 21:22:49] Volcarona: Katherine: I- I know. I'm just concerned for a friend.
[15.09.2018 21:23:26] Vagrant.Melia: "Distance yourselves from their shell."
[15.09.2018 21:25:15] Volcarona: Katherine: Intruder.
[15.09.2018 21:25:47] Volcarona: Katherine: Oh, a machine. Of course.
[15.09.2018 21:25:56] tC-Progenitor: "Affirmative"
[15.09.2018 21:26:14] Gossamer: *The ferry remains immobile*
[15.09.2018 21:26:46] Volcarona: Katherine: What's happening with her, Melia? It's...difficult for me not to worry.
[15.09.2018 21:27:03] Vagrant.Melia: "Theirs must rejuvenate. Patience."
[15.09.2018 21:27:22] Nyctophilia: Difficult not to worry? That's an understatement.
[15.09.2018 21:29:00] Volcarona: Katherine: Well, she's undergoing a development that she desires...but one which I can't pretend to understand.
[15.09.2018 21:29:58] Nyctophilia: I mean... Even I didn't had such kind of radical changes ever since the last time. Well... Maybe visually.
[15.09.2018 21:30:32] Nyctophilia: But... her eye, my goodness...
[15.09.2018 21:30:41] Gossamer: *After a bit of time, she woke up, murmuring.*
[15.09.2018 21:31:51] Nyctophilia: ...Kimi? Are you alri- oh...
[15.09.2018 21:32:23] Gossamer: I... I don't know... Last time it happened, on Moros...
[15.09.2018 21:32:25] Death: Lu'vaha was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[15.09.2018 21:32:34] Gossamer: *She slowly got up*
[15.09.2018 21:32:38] Nyctophilia: ...-On Moros?-
[15.09.2018 21:33:17] Volcarona: Katherine: What did you- hm. More visitors.
[15.09.2018 21:33:28] Fabre|Aoi: ***...'flesh'...***
[15.09.2018 21:33:37] IRG|Itherael: V: Something could say 'new.' I suppose.
[15.09.2018 21:34:19] Gossamer: *She tries to get back up to the controls, but stumbles and falls again*
[15.09.2018 21:34:47] Volcarona: Katherine: It's okay Kimi, move slowly.
[15.09.2018 21:35:06] Nyctophilia: Just enter the formation. It will be alright.
[15.09.2018 21:35:29] Gossamer: *She slaps a button on the dashboard from the floor and the ship forms up*
[15.09.2018 21:35:30] Fabre|Aoi: ***'ours' permit 'darklings' in the 'void' (?) - (confusion)...***
[15.09.2018 21:36:00] Volcarona: Katherine: There's been a whole lot of confusion here lately, you aren't the only one to feel it.
[15.09.2018 21:38:08] Fabre|Aoi: Bonjour Nyct.
[15.09.2018 21:38:16] Nyctophilia: Hi!
[15.09.2018 21:38:39] Fabre|Aoi: Did you bring these... visitors here?
[15.09.2018 21:38:58] Nyctophilia: Nope, it was actually Kath.
[15.09.2018 21:38:58] Volcarona: Katherine: I brought them here. We had to discuss things in private.
[15.09.2018 21:39:18] Fabre|Aoi: Private like?
[15.09.2018 21:39:31] Volcarona: Katherine: As in, away from the Freeport and the eyes nearby.
[15.09.2018 21:39:49] Fabre|Aoi: Katherine.. names familiar.
[15.09.2018 21:40:06] Fabre|Aoi: But your husk is not.
[15.09.2018 21:40:22] Volcarona: Katherine: I would hope so. I know I'm not in the RV, but this is the ship I used to supply the Arch of Light.
[15.09.2018 21:40:29] Volcarona: For a certain recent project.
[15.09.2018 21:41:18] Fabre|Aoi: Well..
[15.09.2018 21:41:46] Volcarona: Katherine: What of the IRG? Are they invited here?
[15.09.2018 21:41:58] IRG|Itherael: V: I personally didn't receive an invitation.
[15.09.2018 21:42:12] Volcarona: Katherine: Why are you here?
[15.09.2018 21:42:27] IRG|Itherael: V: Surveying. Waiting for additional parties.
[15.09.2018 21:42:37] Nyctophilia: As in... Auxesia?
[15.09.2018 21:42:38] Fabre|Aoi: ***...'ours' -light- named 'melia' - 'theirs' shall -remain- (confused) (?)...***
[15.09.2018 21:42:45] IRG|Itherael: V: Why would we wait for Auxesians?
[15.09.2018 21:42:54] Nyctophilia: Wild guess.
[15.09.2018 21:43:05] IRG|Itherael: V: Wildly incorrect.
[15.09.2018 21:43:53] Volcarona: Katherine: Is this to be....tolerated? It's a massive warship. Last time I saw it, it destroyed one of our.
[15.09.2018 21:44:01] Volcarona: Due to an alleged misunderstanding, but still.
[15.09.2018 21:44:18] Nyctophilia: [REDACTED]: I still do not trust them.
[15.09.2018 21:44:33] Nyctophilia: [REDACTED]: The last time I saw it, it was hanging around an Auxesian Battlecruiser.
[15.09.2018 21:44:56] Preparing to cloak...
[15.09.2018 21:45:05] Nyctophilia: Wild guess.
[15.09.2018 21:45:06] Cloaking device on
[15.09.2018 21:45:09] Volcarona: Katherine: Melia, what is your feeling towards them? Oh, and speak of the devil.
[15.09.2018 21:45:16] IRG|Itherael: V: They have no business with us here.
[15.09.2018 21:45:30] IRG|Itherael: V: Well, at least on our front.

[15.09.2018 21:45:39] Gossamer: *She retches onto the floor, her ship still following*
[15.09.2018 21:45:50] Volcarona: Katherine: Stay close to us, Kimi.A freaking auxesian and an IRG showed up. I never thought that I'd have negative feelings towards zoner researchers, but something was telling me that they're all in the same bed. But... Yesterday felt like I shouldn't have been there, so I decided to leave as soon as possible.
I had to take a ship that nobody was aware of, except the ones who did. And fly under my name. Guess what - same thing happened again. I was looking around the Edge and Border worlds, until I eventually runned into Melia... And Kimiko. We had an... interesting chat about how things go around, or rather how I perceive them, until she eventually invited me to board her Ferry.
Code:
[16.09.2018 16:04:37] [REDACTED]: Hi-oh.
[16.09.2018 16:04:48] Gossamer: I see... Well, I recognize that voice.
[16.09.2018 16:05:22] [REDACTED]: I have reasons to hide.
[16.09.2018 16:05:53] Gossamer: *She smiles, nodding*
[16.09.2018 16:05:56] Vagrant.Melia: "Curiosity."
[16.09.2018 16:06:01] [REDACTED]: And I'm sure you saw them yesterday.
[16.09.2018 16:06:34] Gossamer: "Understanding. This darkling inhabits another husk. Nyctophilia."
[16.09.2018 16:07:06] Vagrant.Melia: "A familiar one."
[16.09.2018 16:07:33] [REDACTED]: I am Nyctophilia. And I am [REDACTED].
[16.09.2018 16:07:47] [REDACTED]: Although, these names are almost irrelevant for Melia.
[16.09.2018 16:07:53] [REDACTED]: However, they are for my kind.
[16.09.2018 16:08:01] Gossamer: We both know your soul. *She nods*
[16.09.2018 16:09:10] [REDACTED]: As I said... None will ever know my real name. I've burned my ID long ago, as soon as I've discovered it myself.
[16.09.2018 16:10:01] Gossamer: You're understanding more, little by little.
[16.09.2018 16:10:28] [REDACTED]: Although... I must appologise for running away yesterday, but I can't afford auxesians getting on my track every now and then.
[16.09.2018 16:10:52] [REDACTED]: A wild guess was a truth, after all.
[16.09.2018 16:11:09] Vagrant.Melia: "Curiosity. The bird's followers seek you?"
[16.09.2018 16:11:13] [REDACTED]: Yeah...
[16.09.2018 16:11:58] Gossamer: Huh. Go figure. I'm guessing they lumped me in with you guys.
[16.09.2018 16:12:39] [REDACTED]: If they will turn into the same pro-humanist group as the Order, I will not tolerate their existance.
[16.09.2018 16:12:52] Gossamer: I don't think they're the same. At all.
[16.09.2018 16:14:06] [REDACTED]: Who knows.
[16.09.2018 16:14:18] [REDACTED]: By the way... How come do you know of them, Melia?
[16.09.2018 16:14:44] Vagrant.Melia: "The Light knows well of them."
[16.09.2018 16:15:10] Vagrant.Melia: "The Greater Lights have demanded their toleration. Our paths have crossed multiple times."
[16.09.2018 16:15:23] Gossamer: They're nothing like the Order or Core.
[16.09.2018 16:15:30] [REDACTED]: That's... Interesting.
[16.09.2018 16:16:37] Gossamer: Perhaps we should move away from the jump hole, just in case.
[16.09.2018 16:16:41] Vagrant.Melia: "Another."
[16.09.2018 16:17:15] [REDACTED]: Hello.
[16.09.2018 16:17:26] Gossamer: It's okay. You're safe.
[16.09.2018 16:17:46] R.Barbero: R: Greetings
[16.09.2018 16:18:00] Gossamer: You can come back if you wish.
[16.09.2018 16:18:36] [REDACTED]: ...Yes. Moving further from the traffic would be wise.
[16.09.2018 16:20:16] Gossamer: What do you know about Auxesia, anywho?
[16.09.2018 16:20:31] [REDACTED]: All I know that their leader is unreasonable.
[16.09.2018 16:21:05] Gossamer: Anything else?
[16.09.2018 16:21:06] [REDACTED]: She tried to kill me with an antimatter weaponry, while commanding a battlecruiser, and endangering a Freeport.
[16.09.2018 16:21:15] Vagrant.Melia: "They follow a path contrary to the darklings of hatred."
[16.09.2018 16:21:47] Vagrant.Melia: "They seek understanding, yet they do still show hostility to the Bretheren."
[16.09.2018 16:22:16] Gossamer: It's... complicated.
[16.09.2018 16:22:20] [REDACTED]: Quite.
[16.09.2018 16:22:54] Gossamer: The K'Hara are... more suited to war. Extinguishing and purging the darkness with violence.
[16.09.2018 16:23:05] Gossamer: They've had to adapt, Kat's told you.
[16.09.2018 16:23:13] [REDACTED]: I know, I know...
[16.09.2018 16:23:43] [REDACTED]: I even had a conversation with Melia about them and... All that the impossibility of reunion seemed irrelevant for me.
[16.09.2018 16:23:55] [REDACTED]: Like... How in the world their kind cannot reunite?
[16.09.2018 16:24:00] Vagrant.Melia: "Different paths. Different minds."
[16.09.2018 16:24:07] Gossamer: *Kimi takes off her helmet and places it on the seat besides her. She appears to be in the process of decorating her eyepatch.* I'm starving, y'know?
[16.09.2018 16:24:44] [REDACTED]: I... Have some spare food here, if you want some.
[16.09.2018 16:25:08] Gossamer: Nah, it's alright. I'm just gonna go fetch something from the galley.
[16.09.2018 16:25:17] [REDACTED]: ...Well then.
[16.09.2018 16:25:27] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia begins to softly glow.*
[16.09.2018 16:25:34] Gossamer: *She gets up, and the sound of rustling through a kitchen can be heard in the background*
[16.09.2018 16:27:10] Gossamer: *Eventually she returns with a huge bowl of ramen, far larger than anything a girl her size should consume.*
[16.09.2018 16:27:28] [REDACTED]: Have a good one.
[16.09.2018 16:27:59] Gossamer: *She begins to utterly devour the meal as if she had been starving for days.*
[16.09.2018 16:28:56] [REDACTED]: * [REDACTED] rests in her pilot chair, staring at the sun through her sun glasses. She slowly exhales* Yeah...
[16.09.2018 16:29:05] [REDACTED]: Yesterday wasn't the most pleasing day...
[16.09.2018 16:29:47] Vagrant.Melia: "Amusement. The Forgotten Void was filled with darklings. It was not."
[16.09.2018 16:30:15] Gossamer: *She speaks with her mouth full* Yeah, 'at 'eally 'ucked.
[16.09.2018 16:31:25] Vagrant.Melia: *The glow continues to rhythmically shine through Melia's form.*
[16.09.2018 16:32:26] Gossamer: *Eventually, she finishes rather quickly, placing down the bowl.* I don't know why, but ever since my change, I've been really hungry.
[16.09.2018 16:32:47] [REDACTED]: You mean... The eye?
[16.09.2018 16:33:35] Gossamer: Well, that, and the other one.
[16.09.2018 16:33:41] [REDACTED]: Hmm...
[16.09.2018 16:34:33] [REDACTED]: Don't really know... After my first interface with Melia, I had a really strong headache.
[16.09.2018 16:34:47] [REDACTED]: It lasted for... Maybe twelve hours at least.
[16.09.2018 16:35:06] Vagrant.Melia: "The dark form is not well suited to receiving the song."
[16.09.2018 16:35:17] Gossamer: Yeah. Our nervous systems weren't designed for this kind of thing.
[16.09.2018 16:35:41] Vagrant.Melia: "The blessed one must grow. It will adapt to listen without impediment."
[16.09.2018 16:36:16] Gossamer: *She smiles warmly* It's new ground for us.
[16.09.2018 16:36:20] [REDACTED]: It was just after the first time... The second time it wasn't hurting as much. Maybe because I was distracted by
[16.09.2018 16:36:23] [REDACTED]: the other thing...
[16.09.2018 16:37:15] Gossamer: You're acclimating to it.
[16.09.2018 16:37:27] Gossamer: The more you're exposed, the more your body will accept it.
[16.09.2018 16:37:34] [REDACTED]: Slowly, but steady - yeah.
[16.09.2018 16:39:45] [REDACTED]: Still, I anticipate the moment when I get to experience it again.
[16.09.2018 16:40:05] [REDACTED]: Or... Maybe something new.
[16.09.2018 16:40:11] Gossamer: Heh, you never know. Depends on your path.
[16.09.2018 16:41:27] [REDACTED]: I just know that the only thing is happening around is you. Everything is... Not as actual as it was.
[16.09.2018 16:41:46] [REDACTED]: War in Sigmas, in Liberty, mercs hunting someone.
[16.09.2018 16:41:55] Vagrant.Melia: "It is unusual for moments to carry a single meaning."
[16.09.2018 16:42:17] Vagrant.Melia: "The voids are always changing."
[16.09.2018 16:42:36] Gossamer: We must learn to adapt if we are to grow.
[16.09.2018 16:43:06] [REDACTED]: But all I see is a perpetual repeat of everything that was before. A cycle.
[16.09.2018 16:43:45] Gossamer: Perhaps that is because it is only human to perceive patterns.
[16.09.2018 16:44:12] [REDACTED]: And just somewhere inbetween the cycles there is a pattern of change.
[16.09.2018 16:45:11] Gossamer: You must learn to overcome the mind's conventions. And embrace solely what you can perceive.
[16.09.2018 16:45:24] Gossamer: And from there, you can expand.
[16.09.2018 16:47:28] [REDACTED]: Believe me, I know my own limits.
[16.09.2018 16:47:51] Gossamer: *She smiles* I thought I knew mine.
[16.09.2018 16:48:57] [REDACTED]: You just... Won't understand if you won't live my own life.
[16.09.2018 16:49:19] Gossamer: Ah, these words are so clunky...
[16.09.2018 16:49:25] [REDACTED]: I am talking about the perpetual cycle that always repeats.
[16.09.2018 16:49:53] [REDACTED]: As in. We were having the best time I could ever imagine, but then everything started to go downwards.
[16.09.2018 16:50:02] [REDACTED]: And now we're here again.
[16.09.2018 16:50:39] Gossamer: Well, that's because of how you perceive time.
[16.09.2018 16:51:28] [REDACTED]: It's rather not how I perceive it, it's how I anticipate things to happen based on my own experience
[16.09.2018 16:51:38] [REDACTED]: Which... Wasn't the best one.
[16.09.2018 16:52:01] Gossamer: But still. You see past in memories. Present in your vision. And future in your ideas. And that is all.
[16.09.2018 16:52:51] Gossamer: So of course suffering seems a cycle, with good and bad dueling in a wheel as one flows into the other.
[16.09.2018 16:53:11] [REDACTED]: I have no ideas about the future, I can only assume what will happen.
[16.09.2018 16:53:24] [REDACTED]: That's why I don't plan anything. That's why I don't have any ambitions.
[16.09.2018 16:54:05] Gossamer: *She seems to be struggling with the words, not quite able to phrase her meaning*
[16.09.2018 16:55:59] [REDACTED]: I simply can't afford.
[16.09.2018 16:56:03] Gossamer: I... Well, let me approach this differently.
[16.09.2018 16:56:30] Gossamer: Is it fear of losing what you have? The happiness?
[16.09.2018 16:57:00] [REDACTED]: I said, I have nothing to lose. I am always ready to accept anything.
[16.09.2018 16:57:08] [REDACTED]: To even lose happiness.
[16.09.2018 16:57:32] Gossamer: I wanted to accept sadness as inevitable because I was afraid of being hurt more when I lost happiness.
[16.09.2018 16:58:52] Gossamer: But... I learned that you never really have to lose happiness.
[16.09.2018 16:59:29] Vagrant.Melia: "It is what becomes that will be."
[16.09.2018 17:00:04] Gossamer: Maybe once this form of mine is more adapted, I can show you.
[16.09.2018 17:01:21] Gossamer: It's hard to use solely words to show.
[16.09.2018 17:01:25] [REDACTED]: I know.
[16.09.2018 17:02:25] [REDACTED]: But even if I can wait forever, I'm not an "iron lady".
[16.09.2018 17:02:39] [REDACTED]: If auxesians will keep getting on my nerves, I will lose it.
[16.09.2018 17:03:03] Gossamer: Calm and patience. If you wish to learn, you need this.
[16.09.2018 17:03:14] [REDACTED]: I know, I know.
[16.09.2018 17:03:19] Vagrant.Melia: "Patience."
[16.09.2018 17:03:33] [REDACTED]: But I can't hide forever either, nor I can risk my own reputation or neural stability.
[16.09.2018 17:03:52] Gossamer: *Feebly, the light within Kimiko reaches out to [REDACTED], trying to give her some measure of serenity. It is very weak.*
[16.09.2018 17:04:16] [REDACTED]: If they won't reason with me - people will suffer. Because of them.
[16.09.2018 17:04:42] [REDACTED]: *For some reason, [REDACTED] seems to be quite serious about Auxesians being hurt. Kimiko's attempt doesn't seems to be quite effective.*
[16.09.2018 17:05:24] Gossamer: If we are to grow, we need to let go of aspects that hold us back. Hatred is one.
[16.09.2018 17:05:47] Gossamer: We must transcend base concepts like revenge and our primitive 'justice'.
[16.09.2018 17:05:53] Vagrant.Melia: "Perhaps we may be able to shift the bird's followers."
[16.09.2018 17:06:28] [REDACTED]: That's not the case.
[16.09.2018 17:06:41] Gossamer: We may be able to change things.
[16.09.2018 17:07:06] [REDACTED]: Seeing every single bounty hunter and a merc following you just for a pure sake of claming your bounty is discusting.
[16.09.2018 17:07:29] [REDACTED]: If you'd be in my place, I think you would understand.
[16.09.2018 17:07:53] [REDACTED]: I tolerate it as of now, and because they don't know my name, I can hide. But if they find out somehow, I won't.
[16.09.2018 17:10:03] Gossamer: Listen. Can you dock with my ferry?
[16.09.2018 17:10:26] [REDACTED]: I actually tried the last time. When you... Lost consciousness or something.
[16.09.2018 17:10:51] [REDACTED]: If your Ferry has an extended bridge - sure.
[16.09.2018 17:11:56] Gossamer: Yeah. The airlock in the back should be able to facilitate a simple connection.The ship's interior was... Nothing I could ever imagine to be a ship's interior. It looked like an actual house. No wonder she feels that comfy in this ship...
Code:
[16.09.2018 17:12:30] Gossamer: *The outer doors of the airlock open up, and small clamps extend to stabilize and attach the Eagle to the ship.*
[16.09.2018 17:13:49] [REDACTED]: *Nycto downs on the EVA-suit and opens her cabin. She proceeds through the extended bridge to into the Ferry's Airlock*
[16.09.2018 17:14:55] Gossamer: *The airlock door closed and repressurized, the room decontaminating and returning to a normal atmosphere.*
[16.09.2018 17:15:54] [REDACTED]: *As she enters the airlock, she removes the helmet and looks around.*
[16.09.2018 17:16:32] [REDACTED]: *She knocks on the internal door of the airlock twice* Hello? Anybody home?
[16.09.2018 17:16:41] Gossamer: *The interior is typical of OS&C design. Sleek, art deco lines and abstract shapes decorate the walls. The door slides open and reveals the opposite: Kimiko has renovated this place to appear like a mixture of a wooden cabin and a college dorm.*
[16.09.2018 17:17:47] Gossamer: One second! *Kimiko can be heard in the small bathroom near the cockpit.*
[16.09.2018 17:17:52] [REDACTED]: Wow...
[16.09.2018 17:18:27] [REDACTED]: *She walks in slowly, carefuly observing the interior decorations.*
[16.09.2018 17:18:36] Gossamer: *There were fairy lights strung across the ceiling, tapestries and various band posters on the walls, and rustic wooden furniture mixed with repurposed, prefab appliances. Instruments and music bookss lay strewn across the floor.*
[16.09.2018 17:20:51] Gossamer: *Kimiko emerges from the bathroom, wearing a light white sundress, her patchy jean jacket and hiking boots. She smiles.*
[16.09.2018 17:20:56] Gossamer: Welcome to my little home.
[16.09.2018 17:21:54] [REDACTED]: *After a small observation, [REDACTED] takes a brief look at Kimi* Yeah... That's... Not any home I saw. *She keeps looking around,
[16.09.2018 17:22:02] [REDACTED]: fascinated by the interior design.*
[16.09.2018 17:23:04] Gossamer: *The girl takes a seat on one of two futons facing each other, basking in the warm, colorful lights hanging from the ceiling*
[16.09.2018 17:23:18] Gossamer: Come on and take a seat! *She motions to the futon opposite her's*
[16.09.2018 17:24:04] [REDACTED]: *[REDACTED] takes a careful walk around, still observing the decorations, before taking a seat near Kimi*
[16.09.2018 17:24:42] [REDACTED]: Where did you get these?
[16.09.2018 17:24:44] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia seems to have positioned itself in a location relatively favorable to the ferry's observation lounge.*
[16.09.2018 17:24:48] Gossamer: Take a moment to just relax. Feel every part of your body from your feet to the top of your head uncoil, one by one...
[16.09.2018 17:25:00] Gossamer: I got all this from my old home on Curacao.
[16.09.2018 17:25:29] [REDACTED]: Huh... Wow...
[16.09.2018 17:26:30] [REDACTED]: *Not minding the EVA-suit, she somehow relaxes in the futon.*
[16.09.2018 17:27:22] Gossamer: *Kimi takes deep breaths, enjoying the serenity of the hum of the engines, the warmth of the sun's rays above*
[16.09.2018 17:27:34] Gossamer: Just... feel everything around you.
[16.09.2018 17:28:59] [REDACTED]: *some kind of thoughts keep wrapping around her head. Still, Melia's presense and the sun rays keep her in peace.*
[16.09.2018 17:29:37] Gossamer: It feels nice, doesn't it?
[16.09.2018 17:30:11] [REDACTED]: From one side... Yeah...
[16.09.2018 17:30:54] Gossamer: Ponder it. The feeling of nothingness. Peace.
[16.09.2018 17:31:14] Gossamer: How still the pool of the mind can be when no ripples disturb it.
[16.09.2018 17:31:43] Gossamer: *A pleasant aroma of incense floats in the air*
[16.09.2018 17:33:15] [REDACTED]: *Not matter how she tries to relax, something keeps her concerned.*
[16.09.2018 17:34:11] Gossamer: You are safe here. Nothing shall harm you. The Light protects. *A soft purple glow hums in her right pupil*
[16.09.2018 17:34:52] Vagrant.Melia: "The Light shall provide the calm."
[16.09.2018 17:35:07] [REDACTED]: *Being totally oblivious of everything and with her eyes closed, Jane is still concentrated on her thoughts and whatever is
[16.09.2018 17:35:12] [REDACTED]: distracting her calm.*
[16.09.2018 17:36:35] Gossamer: *Kimiko takes out her small purple ring, placing it on her right hand and removing her eyepatch. Her left eye casts out a glowing rainbow of color.* Let me in. Open yourself up.
[16.09.2018 17:37:59] [REDACTED]: *[REDACTED] is still trying to figure out what is this feeling that doesn't lets her to be in peace. However, she appears to be aware of it.*
[16.09.2018 17:38:24] [REDACTED]: *The fear of the ones who are close to her to be hurt.*
[16.09.2018 17:39:29] Gossamer: *Two presences orbiting each other can be felt on the periphery of Jane's awareness.*
[16.09.2018 17:40:04] Gossamer: "Serenity. No harm shall come."
[16.09.2018 17:41:14] [REDACTED]: ...What is this... No. I know it.
[16.09.2018 17:41:51] Gossamer: "Let it happen." *The words came from two voices at once. Each of the Twin Lights.*
[16.09.2018 17:42:12] [REDACTED]: *she grumbles* I always told myself to not get too close with anyone... Or I will start caring...
[16.09.2018 17:43:15] [REDACTED]: No... I don't want them to be hurt.
[16.09.2018 17:44:00] Gossamer: "Open your heart to us." *The Lights continue beckoning her*
[16.09.2018 17:45:13] Gossamer: *For a brief moment, the feeling of Kimiko pleading innocently flashes in this connection*
[16.09.2018 17:46:00] [REDACTED]: *[REDACTED] feels something reminiscent yet again. But from something or someone else.*
[16.09.2018 17:47:33] [REDACTED]: I... Don't want... them... to be... hurt... *she remembers the void where Kimiko's eye used to be, the she swiftly remembers the "dark side" of Katherine that was triggered by Silverstone.*
[16.09.2018 17:48:30] Gossamer: *At the moment the memories surfaced, the Twin Lights gave the elation of Kimi's gift and vision, and Kat's love of the Light.*
[16.09.2018 17:48:41] [REDACTED]: *Afterwards, she remembers how Melia obliviously chased an Order agent.*
[16.09.2018 17:50:18] Gossamer: "The past exists. As does the present. And so does the future. They are all one. And all joy and warmth with it."
[16.09.2018 17:51:08] Gossamer: *The sensation of warmth entered into [REDACTED]'s awareness, and a sense of timelessness came with it*
[16.09.2018 17:52:18] [REDACTED]: The... Warmth... *[REDACTED] feels the same warmth as she felt before. Not too hot, not too cold. Even in her EVA-suit.*
[16.09.2018 17:53:16] Gossamer: *The warmth moves inside her, deep in her chest* "Let go of fear. An illusion. Serenity."
[16.09.2018 17:54:40] [REDACTED]: I just... don't want them... to be... hurt... *Struggling to letting go a thought that her friends might be hurt, she somehow accepts the warmth.*
[16.09.2018 17:54:56] Gossamer: *A vision of a small, frightened child appears. Her fear echoes in the mind of Jane. But slowly, she overcomes the fear in little lumps, moving her body from the corner she is hidden in ever so slightly, before eventually standing and walking.*
[16.09.2018 17:55:35] Gossamer: "Yours does not inflict pain."
[16.09.2018 17:56:00] Gossamer: "Embrace the love and joy of the whole. Of the 'friends'."
[16.09.2018 17:56:56] [REDACTED]: They do... That is why I am worried...
[16.09.2018 17:57:38] [REDACTED]: The events I am unable to influence. They happen.
[16.09.2018 17:57:58] [REDACTED]: And they hurt the ones I care about.
[16.09.2018 17:58:25] Vagrant.Melia: *Something... distant, yet familiar, seemed to be watching.*
[16.09.2018 17:58:30] Gossamer: *The thought of the worry hurting her friends enters [REDACTED]'s mind. A sense of complacency and acceptance of life's injuries.*
[16.09.2018 17:58:50] Gossamer: "Pain is inevitable. For all."
[16.09.2018 17:58:51] [REDACTED]: I don't care if they hurt me... But I care if they hurt them. I cared before... And when I stopped, it all became alot easier.
[16.09.2018 17:59:16] [REDACTED]: If they hurt themselves or if anyone hurts them... That is the worst outcome.
[16.09.2018 17:59:38] Gossamer: *A pang of heartbreak reverberates through Jane, but is soon quickly overwhelmed by a sensation of happiness and love.*
[16.09.2018 17:59:54] Gossamer: "The Light purifies the Darkness."
[16.09.2018 18:00:33] [REDACTED]: ..My heart was broken many, many times... I've suffered a lot of pain and I know how to adapt to it.
[16.09.2018 18:01:26] [REDACTED]: But... I've never, never in my life had this kind of friends. And this is yet again the first time I fear them to be hurt.
[16.09.2018 18:01:31] Gossamer: *The emotional turmoil repeats over and over again until the presence of other lights joins alongside [REDACTED]. Slowly, the heartbreak fades as each light carries the burden. And the feeling of elation grows.*-
[16.09.2018 18:01:33] [REDACTED]: Not by anyone, but by themselves.
[16.09.2018 18:02:08] Gossamer: "To embrace others is to lessen their pain. And yours."
[16.09.2018 18:04:25] [REDACTED]: It's just... I don't know... I had to let it out. I've been keeping it within me for quite a while...
[16.09.2018 18:04:48] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia's form manifests in the mindscape.*
[16.09.2018 18:05:16] [REDACTED]: But if it won't hurt them... I'm not afraid to accept the Light.
[16.09.2018 18:05:37] Vagrant.Melia: "Your pain would be ours, and that of the whole. Shared, it would be overcome."
[16.09.2018 18:06:22] Gossamer: "Unity. We are whole."
[16.09.2018 18:06:30] [REDACTED]: I... I know...
[16.09.2018 18:07:12] Gossamer: "No harm shall come from compassion."
[16.09.2018 18:08:12] [REDACTED]: Just... There are a few who understand how I feel. The fear of losing them is what holds me back...
[16.09.2018 18:08:17] Vagrant.Melia: "Shed the emotions of harm. Replace them with the emotions of peace."
[16.09.2018 18:09:09] Gossamer: "Yours are but a miniscule part of the whole of the universe. Nothing is ever lost. Embrace this eternity."
[16.09.2018 18:10:02] [REDACTED]: I know...
[16.09.2018 18:10:37] Gossamer: *The encouragement to not merely know, but let herself *feel* the letting go of self, prodded at [REDACTED] warmly.*
[16.09.2018 18:11:21] Vagrant.Melia: "Serenity."
[16.09.2018 18:12:05] [REDACTED]: *[REDACTED] still fights with her fears, but seems to be overcoming them.*
[16.09.2018 18:12:24] Gossamer: *The temptation to melt and give in to the universe, letting everything loose, grew slowly. The Twin Lights of Kimiko and her light within, which seemed to have the name Amphitrite, slowly orbited closer and closer, almost merging.*
[16.09.2018 18:13:56] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia's manifest form was near, observing and comforting.*
[16.09.2018 18:14:29] [REDACTED]: I... Don't have to worry about them... They will be alright... I am certain... *[REDACTED] finally overcomes her fear, as she feels
[16.09.2018 18:14:37] [REDACTED]: the scale of the Universe.*
[16.09.2018 18:15:17] Gossamer: *The sense of peace, the insignificance of all worries... it all seems to overpower her with the gentle strength of the cosmos.*
[16.09.2018 18:15:43] Vagrant.Melia: "Accept the nature. Do not contest it."
[16.09.2018 18:16:08] [REDACTED]: I am... Always ready... To accept... Everything...
[16.09.2018 18:17:26] [REDACTED]: *She was imagining the twists withing the galactic cores, any possible races all across the Universe. But at the same time, she was completely calm.*
[16.09.2018 18:17:40] Gossamer: "Yours are ours. Theirs are ours. Ours are all of one universe. One existence."
[16.09.2018 18:18:13] Vagrant.Melia: "Light. Darkness. The voids. They are all of matter."
[16.09.2018 18:21:11] [REDACTED]: *And in a moment, her attention focused on Sirius. The confronation of Light and the Dark.*
[16.09.2018 18:23:56] [REDACTED]: *She let go all the thoughts about conflicts, and remained serene in the warmth.*
[16.09.2018 18:24:31] Vagrant.Melia: "Joy."
[16.09.2018 18:24:43] Gossamer: "Harmony."
[16.09.2018 18:25:39] Gossamer: *In time, the presence of the Twin Lights would fade, and Kimiko would return to the material world once more.*
[16.09.2018 18:25:48] [REDACTED]: *She was thinking about the peace, as the feelings of joy and harmony reached out to her.*
[16.09.2018 18:27:03] Gossamer: *Her body could only remain so long before it suffered, and she was fast asleep on the futon, with the ring resting on her abdomen*
[16.09.2018 18:27:23] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia's presence would cease to maintain a manifest form. The mindscape would begin to retract into nothingness.*
[16.09.2018 18:27:32] Vagrant.Melia: *All would be back as they were.*
[16.09.2018 18:27:53] [REDACTED]: *[REDACTED] appears to be slowly awakening. Not shedding any tears this time.*
[16.09.2018 18:28:40] [REDACTED]: *She slowly opens her eyes and looks around, with a weird expression on her face.*
[16.09.2018 18:30:07] Gossamer: *She looked incredibly peaceful*
[16.09.2018 18:31:07] [REDACTED]: *She takes a look at Kimi* Uhm... Kimi? Are you fine?
[16.09.2018 18:31:41] Gossamer: *She was fast asleep, looking exhausted from the experience.*
[16.09.2018 18:32:30] [REDACTED]: Hmm... *she takes a look around*
[16.09.2018 18:33:00] Gossamer: *Were [REDACTED] to leave, the controls for such were fairly intuitive and accessed via a panel in the back*
[16.09.2018 18:33:47] [REDACTED]: Right... I think I'll leave her alone... *She stands up, downing her helmet and heading to the airlock.*
[16.09.2018 18:34:13] [REDACTED]: *As she reaches the airlock, she closes the internal door, giving Kimi a last gaze.*
[16.09.2018 18:35:20] [REDACTED]: *The airlock depressurises, and Jane presses the button on her right, which immediately opens the bay door.*
[16.09.2018 18:36:24] [REDACTED]: *As she exits the bay door, she heads off through the extended bridge to her Eagle, closing the door by pressing a button on the Ferry's hull.*
[16.09.2018 18:37:21] [REDACTED]: *She slowly proceeds to her cabin and as she reaches it, she enters it, closing it and cutting off the extended bridge on her end.*
[16.09.2018 18:37:53] Gossamer: *The ferry's autopilot would ensure Kimi did not fall behind*
[16.09.2018 18:38:09] [REDACTED]: *She wears off the EVA-suit* Okay... Eh... The extended bridge...
[16.09.2018 18:39:06] Gossamer: *The ferry prepared for flight and retracted all docking clamps, ready for transit.*
[16.09.2018 18:40:49] [REDACTED]: *She straightens her hair and takes a look at Melia.* What?
[16.09.2018 18:41:26] Vagrant.Melia: "We shall swim through the voids."
[16.09.2018 18:41:50] [REDACTED]: Why not...Yeah... It wasn't just Melia. It was her. Which means she is with them. I can't say that I'm frightened, because... That's all she ever wanted. More like... I'm actually happy for her. She was there way after Kath... And me... And they've accepted her that fast. And I know me, and if I was me, I'd feel jealous about it, but I don't... Huh. There are changes after all. Still, I am anticipating the moment to become one with them... But there is more to be done.

Poor Kimiko... Why? Why you had to do this to yourself? To me?...
I was at the Freeport again... With a ship and under the name that nobody was aware of. And it was pretty crowded, so I had to play a role of a cynic pro-human woman... I hated to do this, but it was necessary. Nobody had to know that it was me... And nobody ever should. It will remain in the past, undocumented.
But soon after... I headed out into Lost with - guess whom? right - Kimiko herself. Yeah. This place still gives me unwelcoming vibes, although... Kimi calls it a "home".
We've met with Melia soonly after... But our serentiy didn't lasted for long, as she felt that someone was about to disturb us. So we decided to jump away. Right into Kusari, and I doubt that it was a coincidence. For... Some reason they decided to lurk around these voids, but now I know why. It was this guy who escorted me and Kath out of the Sigmas. And he was a representative of the others, of K'Haras or the Brethern, as they call them. They're always so... Apathic. Feels like it takes only a word to make them put a knife at your throat. Yikes.
We decided that it would be wise to move further away from one of the most active traffice in Sirius and we relocated to Kyushu. A beautiful system with a double star cluster. And we were as far as possible from the traffic, so nobody could possibly disturb us. But even here, the troubles have reached me.
Just a moment of reunion and something strange started to happen with Kimiko. She immersed into some kind of deep depression for a... Reason. I think I still have a record of this. At least I had a use for my new EVA-suit.
Code:
[17.09.2018 17:33:04] Gossamer: Well, at least we can observe these beauties.
[17.09.2018 17:33:41] [REDACTED]: Yeah... Here we're off traffic.
[17.09.2018 17:35:21] Gossamer: *Kimiko cannot help but display small expressions of shock and emotion*
[17.09.2018 17:36:01] [REDACTED]: ...Kimi? What's wrong?
[17.09.2018 17:36:12] Gossamer: *Her right hand hovers shaking over her heart, and a tear falls from her one eye*
[17.09.2018 17:36:42] Vagrant.Melia: "Pain. Struggle."
[17.09.2018 17:37:33] [REDACTED]: But... why?
[17.09.2018 17:38:14] Gossamer: *Her hand weakly clutches at her heart, and sniffles are heard*
[17.09.2018 17:38:32] Gossamer: It's so... cold...
[17.09.2018 17:38:55] [REDACTED]: Christ... Don't make me come aboard your ship and calm you down.
[17.09.2018 17:39:11] [REDACTED]: You know I'll do it.
[17.09.2018 17:40:27] Gossamer: *She began to openly weep.*
[17.09.2018 17:41:05] [REDACTED]: Ah, hell... Kimi, open the extended bridge. Please.
[17.09.2018 17:41:50] Gossamer: *She continued wallowing in that sorrow, consumed with... whatever was afflicting her.*
[17.09.2018 17:42:14] [REDACTED]: Kimi, please. Just press one button.
[17.09.2018 17:43:34] Gossamer: *Slowly, she stopped convulsing and weeping, elevating from a sobbing mess to a more calm, depressed state.*
[17.09.2018 17:44:36] [REDACTED]: I am still worried.
[17.09.2018 17:45:16] Gossamer: I... I can't explain it. I'm s-sorry. *She sniffled, wiping her eye*
[17.09.2018 17:45:42] [REDACTED]: You don't have to. Just open the damn extended bridge.
[17.09.2018 17:46:02] [REDACTED]: It's something I have to tell you eye-to-eye, not over comms.
[17.09.2018 17:46:24] Gossamer: *She weakly smacked the button, initiating the process*
[17.09.2018 17:46:57] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia's form seemed to dim. Its outward energy emissions reduced substantially.*
[17.09.2018 17:47:13][REDACTED]: Chr-r-rist... *She downs on the EVA-suit, which now had a sewn zipper.*
[17.09.2018 17:47:49] Jane.Foster: *As she zipps her EVA-suit completely and vears the helmet, she opens the cabin and proceeds to the airlock once more.*

[17.09.2018 17:47:54] Shields Disabled
[17.09.2018 17:48:56] Gossamer: *Kimiko resumed weeping, overwhelmed and crumpled on the floor*
[17.09.2018 17:49:06] [REDACTED]: *She presses the same button she used to close the outter doors the last time to open it so she could enter it.*
[17.09.2018 17:50:02] [REDACTED]: *Swiftly floating inside, she closes the airlock with the same button on the wall.*
[17.09.2018 17:51:02] [REDACTED]: *After repressurising and decontaimination proceedures, she opens the inner doors. As she witnesses Kimi on the floor, emotions take over her.*
[17.09.2018 17:51:07] Gossamer: *She would find Kimiko in a fetal position, weeping uncontrollably in the cockpit upon the floor.*
[17.09.2018 17:52:03] [REDACTED]: Chr-r-rist... *She was looking at her in awe for a few seconds, until she decided to remove her helmet and unzip her EVA-suit, revealing her casual clothes.*
[17.09.2018 17:53:00] Gossamer: *It was as if Kimiko had been possessed by her own emotions, viscerally lamenting for more than just her own plights.*
[17.09.2018 17:53:03] Vagrant.Melia: *Whatever Melia, Kimiko and Amphitrite were thinking was profound. Melia's presence even seemed to extend into Kimiko's body.*
[17.09.2018 17:53:16] [REDACTED]: *She swiftly runs towards Kimi and tries to wake her up.*
[17.09.2018 17:53:23] [REDACTED]: Hey!... Hey!
[17.09.2018 17:53:34] [REDACTED]: It's alright. I'm here. We're here.
[17.09.2018 17:54:04] Gossamer: *Her body instinctively sought comfort, moving to embrace whatever living entity was nearby.*
[17.09.2018 17:54:48] Vagrant.Melia: "Pain. Sorrow." *It was if it were all completely shared, to an outside perspective.*
[17.09.2018 17:55:02] [REDACTED]: *She talks calmly and almost quiet.* Nobody is going to hurt you. It all will be alright.
[17.09.2018 17:56:19] [REDACTED]: *She sits nearby Kimi, holding her left arm over her shoulder.* It will be okay.
[17.09.2018 17:57:05] Gossamer: *Kimiko's body embraced Jane's, locking in and shaking with each heaving cry. There was... something else there.*
[17.09.2018 17:57:41] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia's presence was apparently among Kimiko's.*
[17.09.2018 17:58:36] [REDACTED]: *"Ugh... That's exactly what I was saying... They will hurt themselves more than any other." She thought.*
[17.09.2018 18:00:09] [REDACTED]: Sh-sh-sh-ssh... We are here. There won't be any pain.
[17.09.2018 18:00:15] Gossamer: *Kimi stopped her crying, loosening her grip on Jane. It went from seeking comfort to providing it.*
[17.09.2018 18:00:23] Vagrant.Melia: "We..."
[17.09.2018 18:00:35] Vagrant.Melia: "Will."
[17.09.2018 18:00:45] Vagrant.Melia: "Endure."
[17.09.2018 18:01:23] Gossamer: We will endure. *She spoke softly*
[17.09.2018 18:01:32] Vagrant.Melia: "We are the Light. We are Vagrants. We shall overcome."
[17.09.2018 18:01:55] Gossamer: *Kimi repeated the words in much the same manner*
[17.09.2018 18:02:55] Vagrant.Melia: "Embrace. Permit the pain to flow. Compassion."
[17.09.2018 18:03:46] Gossamer: *Kimi couldn't help but radiate a spirit of familial love, smiling with a tear still falling from her eye.*
[17.09.2018 18:04:08] [REDACTED]: *[REDACTED], being emotionally exhausted, places her forehead on Kimi's back.* Endure... Overcome... The Pain...

[17.09.2018 18:05:47] Gossamer: *Kimi's body weakened its hold and grip, and her breathing started to sound shallow.*
[17.09.2018 18:07:42] [REDACTED]: Hey... Hey-hey-hey!
[17.09.2018 18:08:47] Gossamer: *She smiled weakly, not looking at anything in particular*
[17.09.2018 18:10:06][REDACTED]: *[REDACTED] exhaled slowly, still resting with Kimi* It... It will be alright...
[17.09.2018 18:10:44] Gossamer: *Her face pale and eyes bleary, she went limp, still breathing*
[17.09.2018 18:11:28] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia still seemed to be there.*
[17.09.2018 18:12:47] Gossamer: *Suddenly, her body began shaking violently, jerking in every which direction. Her eye darted and open and shut rapidly.*
[17.09.2018 18:12:56] Gossamer: *She was having a seizure.*
[17.09.2018 18:13:38] [REDACTED]: *[REDACTED] momentirely reacted to it. She raised her head and started to look at Kimi with even more worried expression.*
[17.09.2018 18:14:48] [REDACTED]: *She decided to give Kimi some place, because she knew that during seizures a human being better to not being disturbed.*
[17.09.2018 18:14:56] Gossamer: *Her eye began to glow purple.*
[17.09.2018 18:16:20] [REDACTED]: *She was standing nearby, watching at Kimi in awe, understanding that she is unable to help her and witnessing the inevitable.*
[17.09.2018 18:19:12] Gossamer: *The spasms continued, and bleeding from the nose followed, along with staggered, hard breathing*
[17.09.2018 18:19:50] Gossamer: *Her head banged against the wall twice involuntarily*
[17.09.2018 18:21:10] [REDACTED]: *And [REDACTED] was just standing nearby. Looking as her friend is suffering. Understanding that she is unable to help it.*
[17.09.2018 18:21:22] Gossamer: *The spasms and other symptoms soon ceased, leaving Kimiko with eyes wide open and weak breathing*
[17.09.2018 18:21:29] Vagrant.Melia: *Melia's presence seemed to move back to its own form.*
[17.09.2018 18:22:38] Gossamer: *So weakened were the two beings in that body that the "mouth" of the incubus could be barely seen poking out of the back of Kimi's throat*
[17.09.2018 18:23:43] [REDACTED]: *She was just looking at Kimiko. Shocked. Slowly inspecting her body, she notices one important detail, that she was already suspecting.*
[17.09.2018 18:24:59] Gossamer: *It slowly retracted back in, removing any sign of visible infection. Kimi slowly blinked, looking around dizzily.*
[17.09.2018 18:26:38] [REDACTED]: *[REDACTED] decides to approach Kimi carefuly this time.* ...Kimi? Can you hear me? Do you see me?
[17.09.2018 18:27:00] Gossamer: *Very quietly* Y-yeah...
[17.09.2018 18:27:34] [REDACTED]: *She sits in front of her, showing two fingers infront of her eye* How many fingers am I showing?
[17.09.2018 18:28:07] Gossamer: *She mouths "Two"*
[17.09.2018 18:29:26] [REDACTED]: *She exhales, after loosing it and squeezing Kimiko in a tough hug.*
[17.09.2018 18:29:36] [REDACTED]: Never do that again.
[17.09.2018 18:29:56] Gossamer: *She smiles weakly* You'd want to keep doing it if you knew what it was like.
[17.09.2018 18:30:08] [REDACTED]: Mm-mm.
[17.09.2018 18:30:10] [REDACTED]: No.
[17.09.2018 18:30:40] [REDACTED]: If I knew that there are people who worry about me, I wouldn't.
[17.09.2018 18:31:04] Vagrant.Melia: "It is done."
[17.09.2018 18:31:42] Gossamer: *Kimiko leans into the hug, resting on Jane* This body isn't capable of holding us well. But we could feel it, and...*She teared up*
[17.09.2018 18:32:16] [REDACTED]: Sh-sh-sh-sh-ssh... It's alright.
[17.09.2018 18:33:14] Gossamer: I... I...
[17.09.2018 18:33:21] [REDACTED]: Come on.
[17.09.2018 18:34:29] Gossamer: It was like all the songs you felt but...
[17.09.2018 18:34:37] [REDACTED]: I can't share pain with you as they do, sadly. This is the only way.
[17.09.2018 18:34:49] [REDACTED]: You have to tell. To shed it.
[17.09.2018 18:34:52] Gossamer: *The sound was caught in her throat*
[17.09.2018 18:35:20] Vagrant.Melia: "The blessed one has learned of that which has brought us sorrow."
[17.09.2018 18:35:53] Vagrant.Melia: "That which makes us Vagrants."
[17.09.2018 18:36:25] [REDACTED]: The sorrow...
[17.09.2018 18:37:22] [REDACTED]: I... Felt sorrow, when you told me that you were banished by us... And you were devided in that way.
[17.09.2018 18:37:39] [REDACTED]: But... I'd imagine it would be nothing compared to experience it myself.
[17.09.2018 18:37:39] 2018-09-17 18:37:40 SMT : Gossamer is attempting to disconnect from the server
[17.09.2018 18:37:40] Vagrant.Melia: "Such is our fate."
[17.09.2018 18:38:08] Vagrant.Melia: "To experience such as you are would be unwise."
[17.09.2018 18:38:25] [REDACTED]: I wouldn't... But seems like Kimiko did.
[17.09.2018 18:38:45] Vagrant.Melia: "We were poorly prepared for it when we were physically in the Abyss. The recounting was difficult."
[17.09.2018 18:39:12] Vagrant.Melia: "Applying it to the blessed one was harsh. Theirs were nearly crushed."
[17.09.2018 18:39:26] Gossamer: The cries of a million souls... All inside me.
[17.09.2018 18:39:34] [REDACTED]: Yeah... I can imagine...
[17.09.2018 18:39:59] Vagrant.Melia: "It was not our intent. Yet the memory is strong. It overwhelmed, and we were forced to proceed."
[17.09.2018 18:40:09] [REDACTED]: I never got to experience it, but... Christ, it is painful.
[17.09.2018 18:40:19] [REDACTED]: I... I now know it.
[17.09.2018 18:40:46] Gossamer: But... I felt more than just that pain.
[17.09.2018 18:40:58] Gossamer: The love and comfort of those souls.
[17.09.2018 18:41:26] [REDACTED]: Yeah... I'd imagine.
[17.09.2018 18:42:35] Gossamer: *She slowly picked herself up, slumping into the pilot's seat* We're home...
[17.09.2018 18:43:07] [REDACTED]: *She slowly stands up, walking towards the airlock, where she left her EVA-suit.*
[17.09.2018 18:43:14] Vagrant.Melia: "Exhaustion."
[17.09.2018 18:43:16] [REDACTED]: Please, do not make me do that again.
[17.09.2018 18:43:30] Vagrant.Melia: "Darklings seem to consider us infallible. We are not."
[17.09.2018 18:43:33] Gossamer: *She nods* Only when I'm ready again.
[17.09.2018 18:43:49] Gossamer: "Weariness. We must rest."
[17.09.2018 18:44:03] Vagrant.Melia: "We shall return to the warm voids."
[17.09.2018 18:44:09] 2018-09-17 18:44:11 SMT WARNING: A hyperspace breach is being opened by Vagrant.Melia
[17.09.2018 18:44:11] [REDACTED]: *She zipps on her EVA-suit and as she downs on the helmet, she enters the airlock.*
[17.09.2018 18:44:37] [REDACTED]: *Same proceedure as before. She enters the cabin safely and disconnects from the extended bridge.*
[17.09.2018 18:44:39] /shields
[17.09.2018 18:44:39] Shields Enabled
[17.09.2018 18:44:46] Gossamer: *The ferry is ready to jump.*
[17.09.2018 18:44:59] Vagrant.Melia: *While its physical form is well capable of performing the jump with its power reserves, Melia's mind seems thoroughly spent.*
[17.09.2018 18:45:02] [REDACTED]: Alright... All systems check... I'm ready to jump
[17.09.2018 18:45:15] Vagrant.Melia: *It takes a moment to focus on hyperspace.*
[17.09.2018 18:45:46] [REDACTED]: *While her ship systems are preparing for the hyperspace jump, she removes the EVA-suit and places it under her pilot seat, as always.*
[17.09.2018 18:45:52] Jumping...
[17.09.2018 18:46:12] Gossamer: I'm... gonna rest...
[17.09.2018 18:46:24] [REDACTED]: You are.
[17.09.2018 18:46:39] [REDACTED]: See you around.
[17.09.2018 18:46:46] Vagrant.Melia: "Fare well."Like... I knew that she is one with the Light... But that she'll ever get to experience the pain and suffering of the Vagrants? I... I can't come to nearly imagine through what they've been, but I can see that it was a nightmare.
Every day spent with them... It's either something new or just a joy to be with them. And here I remember that I am the one who is looking for something new... Always... If things in Sirius will be as stagnant as they are, I might as well go on retirement. No more Nyctophilia, no more hiding. This was the day when I actually played one of my oldest piano compositions... Who knows, maybe I'll get back to writing music again.
