So a random observation: People around here are hilarious.

I decided I'd come back to Liberty and look around for shits and giggles. Found nothing. Boooooring.

Decided I'd head up to Kusari and see if I could find any of them geisha girls. You know, the ones in the asian clothing or what not? Headed through Kepler and came across an Order operative picking a fight with a Freelancer outside the Zoner station while a Zoner did nothing. Whatever, not any of my business. I excused myself and headed to Shikoku where I passed a fellow Freelancer after a lane disruption.

Quote:Lorcan: What's up my fellow 'lancer?
Yukiko.Murasaki: Hmph.
Lorcan: Hah.
Lorcan: Be that way.

After that touching encounter, I passed another ship, this time a GMG transport with strobing fucking lights on the hull. He didn't answer me though. Made me a bit sad, I wanted to see if he had a rave going on and whether or not I could join.

Quote:Lorcan: Holy shit, gonna have a seizure from them lights.
Lorcan: You have a rave going on in there or something?
<Silence as the ship flies away>
Lorcan: Good talk.

I decided I'd cloak the rest of the way through Kusari to be able to slip under the radar. Saw a Rogue named "Big Box" on my way which made me laugh outloud. All I could think of was "Big Pussy". The cloak overheated before I found a station named Ikarus with a scientist flying around outside and proceeded to die laughing again. They're scientists and couldn't even spell Icarus right! Remind me not to ask them for any scientific help.

After that I flew back through Coronado and back to Kepler. Ran into another Freelancer and tried being jovial.

Quote:Lorcan: What's up Caliban my man?
Caliban: And you are?
Lorcan: Just a fellow 'lancer.
Caliban: Right.

He flew away without another word. Is everyone on their period today or something? Hah. It's the "rEd WaVe".

No idea why I'm back here at Kepler, maybe I wanted to see what real scientists that can spell correctly can do. I dunno. Whatever.

Kepler fucked up my nice (stolen) GMG engines so I had to make a pit stop at Coronado for some new ones.

This just in: Radiation Bad.

I snuck through Xeno Alliance territory, made it to Coronado on one engine, and waited around for my ship to be cleared from quarantine (radiation again) before it's engines could be replaced. Soon as they were installed, I left forNew London to get a new matrix installed at Canary Wharf and left from there back to Liberty.

I was kinda hoping to antagonize someone but found space pretty clear. Did everyone take the day off after their raging PMS yesterday?

Depressing. Maybe I can find a Zoner somewhere around here to kick. They do seem like everyones favorite whipping boy.

Orgin: Ames Research Station, Kepler
Connection: Extreme Radiation Interference













I was low on radiation doses so I figured I'd come back to Kepler for some more...and you know, to make fun of the scientists here. Flew through from Erie and ran into some coppers at the Colorado gate. For whatever reason, they stopped me and had a chat. They grilled me on where I got my money from...if they only knew the truth of where I got it from they'd probably have shot me on sight. They don't enjoy socializing with ex-pirates or thieves.

Quote:LP-Evan.Stone: Hold on a moment. I got some questions for you.
Lorcan: Aw do I have some stalkers?
Lorcan: Oh goodie, stalkers! What's up fellas?
LP-Max.Baker: Wooah Stone.
LP-Evan.Stone: Its not everyday I see a ship like that.
LP-Max.Baker: Look at that ship.
LP-Evan.Stone: Mhm.
Lorcan: Do ye like her?
LP-Max.Baker: You must be one rich man.
LP-Evan.Stone: No, but it is unique I can say that.
Lorcan: I do pretty well for myself. [He smirks.]
LP-Evan.Stone: So, who might you be?
Lorcan: Name's Lorcan.
Lorcan: Lorcan Wilder to be more specific.
Lorcan: 'lancer extraordinaire.
LP-Evan.Stone: Ok, and what brings you to Liberty?
Lorcan: Just passin' through.
Lorcan: This an' that.
LP-Evan.Stone: Hm. And what is your profession? You seem to be well off for yourself.
Lorcan: Well, I'm a 'lancer, as I said. Pretty good at it too.
Lorcan: Worked my way to the big time.
Lorcan: I like your, uh, Patriots.
LP-Evan.Stone: Yeah? And what does "being a freelancer" entail?
Lorcan: They're very...uh...
Lorcan: Unique?
Lorcan: You guys do know what a Freelancer is right?
LP-Evan.Stone: Yeah, I'm aware.
LP-Evan.Stone: But, I'm still curious what you do.
Lorcan: I shoot stuff when people pay me. I escort poor widdle transports when they need the help.
Lorcan: Occasionally, and this is important, I'm paid just to shut up and go away.
LP-Evan.Stone: So. A mercenary. At least its not a researcher...
LP-Max.Baker: You sure have done well for yourself sir.
LP-Max.Baker: Wish I was that rich, I'd fucking retire!
Lorcan: Oh, you won't believe this...did you know there is a base in the Taus, run by scientists, that's misspelled.
Lorcan: I died laughing when I saw it on radar.
LP-Max.Baker: What??
Lorcan: Yeah, they spelled it Ikarus.
LP-Max.Baker: What's the name of it?
Lorcan: [He cracks up laughing.]
LP-Max.Baker: [Bursts out laughing]
LP-Max.Baker: Nice one!
LP-Max.Baker: Okay I'll have to leave for a few moments.
LP-Evan.Stone: Heh. Though there are plenty of weird people out there in the Taus, plenty more that probably don't know how to spell.
Lorcan: Yeah, there's plenty of weird stuff out there.
LP-Evan.Stone: I don't think I could stand seeing another scientist or researcher again.
Lorcan: Oh? They been all up in your shit lately or somethin'?
LP-Evan.Stone: You wouldn't believe the amount of weird researchers I've met in recent days.
LP-Evan.Stone: Everyone wants to study some dark matter stuff, or some weird anomolies.
Lorcan: Have you run into those Auxo guys yet?
Lorcan: Weeeeeird people.
LP-Evan.Stone: Uh. Not personally, but I have heard of them.
Lorcan: Yeah, /real/ strange people.
Lorcan: They paid me to go away. Guess I bugged them too much.
Lorcan: Asked if they had intimate relations with robots.
Lorcan: Didn't like that too much.
Lorcan: Still got paid. [He laughs again.]
LP-Evan.Stone: Yeah....I'm sure that wouldn't have gone over well.
Lorcan: Eh, for people living out in the sticks, they really don't have thick skin.
LP-Evan.Stone: Well, I've kept you long enough, Pilot you may go.
Lorcan: Alrighty them Mr. Policeman, taker er' easy.
Lorcan: [He salutes.]
LP-Evan.Stone: The LPI will keep you in mind, should work come around while your staying here.
Lorcan: Lookin' forward to it.

I made up some bullshit about meeting Auxo and me pissing them off to try to garner some sympathy from them since rumor has it Liberty aren't on good relations with them. Not sure if it worked but they appeared jovial throughout the encounter, so I took it as a success. If I ever do meet some Auxo, I'll have to remember to ask if they have intimate relations with robots and if they got any System Transmitted Diseases.

Lorcan starts cracking up for a solid minute before continuing.

Would probably get me shot but it'd be worth it. Pissing people off is one of my favorite past times. I figured it wouldn't have been beneficial to piss off the police jockeys, after all I gotta fly through there every now and then.

Anyway, gonna get some sleep and more doses of that delicious dark matter. Maybe I'll grow a second...eh, maybe not.

Lots of weird people around today. Undocked from Ames and ran into some people talking. One of them was that Caliban guy from the other day and a couple of people chatting with him. One of them was MND? Never heard of em, though the Caliban guy mentioned Rheinland at one point so. I dunno.


I flew into the dark matter field, looking around for a jump hole. Found nothing and wound up doing a big circle, coming back to Ames where I saw the guys from before briefly talking and saw someone else approaching, a Liberty Navy guy. A random Freelancer in a gunboat showed up a bit after.


Then a ship popped up on scanners that read as "Auxo" and it's name, my God. It was the size of a book. They disappeared real fast afterwards and the conversation continued.


Lots of odd people around tonight. I may have to check out New York again, sounds like some animosity between the ranks there. Would be hilarious if I could fan the flames and get them to shoot one another. Then again, might result in me getting shot at and losing potential clients.

Whatever, it's not like I need the money with my war-chest. Bonus: I finally got out of Kepler and am bunking down with some Junkers at Thunder Bay. Say what you will, these guys know how to party.
