SENDER: Commander Nodoka Hanamura, Battlegroup Ouroboros RECIPIENT: ALL STATIONS, KAMUYMOSIR INTRANET SUBJECT: TASKING ORDERS - SEPTEMBER 22ND, 834 AS
ALL STATIONS:
Effective immediate, a detachment of Sanzu DEVGRU personnel, overseen by Major Kensington is to be dispatched to Inverness to support the local forces there in repelling a Liberty-Crayterian incursion into the system that may be existential to our faction's forward operation plan.
Sanzu DEVGRU personnel tasked with joining Kensington will scramble from the Utsunomiya immediately. All other personnel in Sanzu DEVGRU will continue as fragged.
All other non-Sanzu personnel will continue as fragged also. EMCON procedures are in place as of this moment, restricting communications to only that necessary to participate in vital signals intelligence. We don't need Kusari state, or the Gen'an, finding us naked.
We're to gear up for Operation Amabie in two weeks. So far we've no word on any foreign support.
Continue as planned. I will see us through this tumultuous moment, as will we all.

Auxesian force projection capability has sizably ramped up in recent hours, with ACV Achlys, ACV Ixion and two Prometheus vessels, Abaddon and Incursus moving to moor with Valravn. We can expect OPFOR will be in for one helluva fight with that force alone in the battlespace.
I can confirm also there is an interest from our old friends in Overwatch, as evidenced by me running into one of them while docking with Freeport 14.
So far I've not seen any LSF or Liberty presence, nor of Crayter.
I've been transiting between 14 and Barrier gate, since personally, the coffee at 14 might as well be filtered MOX, it tasted that bad - I encountered a Zoner militant of interest, callsign Green Spear. They had two Auxesians in their cargo hold for incarceration. IFF kept me from engaging them, but otherwise I would have engaged to bring them back to Valravn.
[23.09.2024 21:43:53] Tracey.Rivers: Like, uh.
[23.09.2024 21:43:59] Tracey.Rivers: What planet did he live on?
[23.09.2024 21:44:37] Caliban: Kyushu. He said the lower industrial district had them. 55th...something, something Street. The local police station.
[23.09.2024 21:44:50] Caliban: Apparently there's only one street with that number.
[23.09.2024 21:46:13] Tracey.Rivers: Alright, good enough. Now about these replicas.
[23.09.2024 21:46:20] Tracey.Rivers: What are they based on?
[23.09.2024 21:46:46] Caliban: 'Old world' guns from the time Kusari was split into a civil war.
[23.09.2024 21:47:17] Caliban: These are supposedly made to look like the ones made by Kishiro. Very fancy at the time. Now uh...they have a pretty -
[23.09.2024 21:47:21] Caliban: - weird niche of customers.
[23.09.2024 21:48:18] Caliban: It was a pretty solid crate of about thirty separate pieces? Guy is a hoarder. Might've used some of those to deter the local -
[23.09.2024 21:48:20] Death: CrawDaddyTheSpaceCowboy was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[23.09.2024 21:48:34] Caliban: - Hogosha from busting him up.
[23.09.2024 21:49:05] Tracey.Rivers: How would toy guns stop those guys?
[23.09.2024 21:49:08] Tracey.Rivers: Nevermind.
[23.09.2024 21:49:12] Tracey.Rivers: Um.
[23.09.2024 21:49:21] Caliban: They would. If the Hogosha didn't know they were fake.
[23.09.2024 21:49:32] Tracey.Rivers: Well, hopefully they will auction off the whole set and not separate pieces.
[23.09.2024 21:49:59] Caliban: That's entirely down for you to decide. Maybe even use that haggling you tried to do with me.
[23.09.2024 21:50:17] Tracey.Rivers: That's not how an auction works, Cal. Bids go up, not down.
[23.09.2024 21:50:19] Tip: The world of Freelancer is full of ambiguity just like real life is. Not all characters showing up as hostile are your enemies. Likewise - not all characters showing up as neutral are your friends.
[23.09.2024 21:50:41] Caliban: ...do I have to spell things out? I thought you're no greenhorn.
[23.09.2024 21:51:05] Caliban: Sure. Official auctions might not work out the way you want. Doesn't mean the participants can't be 'motivated'.
[23.09.2024 21:51:31] Caliban: Be convincing, dear. Put up a good show and let the roses fall at your feet.
[23.09.2024 21:51:37] Tracey.Rivers: Right.
[23.09.2024 21:51:50] Caliban: A bit of cunning never hurts to have when you want to make a few good credits.
[23.09.2024 21:52:13] Tracey.Rivers: Well, I can try that.

[23.09.2024 21:52:57] Tracey.Rivers: Kyushu is not that far.
[23.09.2024 21:53:13] Caliban: Pretty close, actually. Given you take the Taus.
[23.09.2024 21:53:18] Tracey.Rivers: Yeah.
[23.09.2024 21:53:40] Green.Spear: There's a meeting?
[23.09.2024 21:53:43] Tracey.Rivers: Alright. Anything else I should know?
[23.09.2024 21:53:46] Lazurith: Not really.
[23.09.2024 21:53:59] Lazurith: We're just Freelancers in our native habitat.
[23.09.2024 21:54:06] O>)Makiri[S]: I mean, other than the ad-hoc meetings that crop up here, no.
[23.09.2024 21:54:06] Caliban: Don't think so. I'm not omnipotent though.
[23.09.2024 21:54:16] Green.Spear: Understandable.
[23.09.2024 21:54:26] Caliban: That's all I know about the job. The rest is on you do deal with.
[23.09.2024 21:54:47] Tracey.Rivers: Cool.
[23.09.2024 21:55:40] O>)Makiri[S]: What's with the Technocrats in your hold, Spear?
[23.09.2024 21:55:52] Green.Spear: They're prisoners.
[23.09.2024 21:55:57] Caliban: Huh.
[23.09.2024 21:56:10] Death: Eltoro suffered a self-inflicted catastrophic decompression.
[23.09.2024 21:56:22] Lazurith: Hm.
[23.09.2024 21:57:26] Caliban: Well. That's it for me.
[23.09.2024 21:57:40] Tracey.Rivers: Guess we better get going, then.
[23.09.2024 21:57:45] Lazurith: Oh, wait. Right now?
[23.09.2024 21:57:46] Caliban: Good luck, you two.
[23.09.2024 21:57:48] Green.Spear: That's a rather exotic setup you got there, Caliban.
[23.09.2024 21:58:02] Lazurith: Dang, you're sharp as a cueball.
[23.09.2024 21:58:04] Caliban: Don't mind it, Green.
[23.09.2024 21:58:05] Lazurith: Anyways.
[23.09.2024 21:58:14] Green.Spear: Not that I dislike it.
[23.09.2024 21:58:23] Lazurith: Y'think I should pick up Am' for this one?
[23.09.2024 21:58:55] Tracey.Rivers: Dunno. Depends on her opinion on the whole thing.
[23.09.2024 21:59:11] Lazurith: If she knows that there is danger, and that I'm also involved, she will more than likely tag along.
[23.09.2024 21:59:31] Lazurith: She's around to keep me from doing stupid shit. And honestly? I'm okay with that.
[23.09.2024 21:59:39] Caliban: The final pay is yours to split. I'm not paying more.
[23.09.2024 21:59:51] Lazurith: Yeah, yeah.
[23.09.2024 21:59:56] Caliban: But enough talk. I'm actually hitting the bed. I'm tired as fuck.
[23.09.2024 22:00:00] Lazurith: Hey, though. Thanks for looking into it.
[23.09.2024 22:00:00] Tracey.Rivers: See ya.

[23.09.2024 22:00:15] Lazurith: Ah well.
[23.09.2024 22:00:21] Lazurith: Hopefully, he got the message.
[23.09.2024 22:01:08] Tracey.Rivers: Yeah.
[23.09.2024 22:01:12] Tracey.Rivers: So...
[23.09.2024 22:01:42] Lazurith: Yeah, she's taking the tram right now. I'll pick her up in a few minutes.
[23.09.2024 22:02:01] Lazurith: I guess she was just resting her legs.
[23.09.2024 22:02:10] Tracey.Rivers: Alright. I need to do some research on these old Kusari guns, anyway.
[23.09.2024 22:02:36] Lazurith: There ain't no better person than her if you've got questions about weapons.
[23.09.2024 22:02:52] Tracey.Rivers: Actually, yeah. Now that I think about it.
[23.09.2024 22:03:04] Lazurith: Well. I guess there are actual soldiers or weapon technicians who could give you a better response!
[23.09.2024 22:03:08] Lazurith: But you get the idea.
[23.09.2024 22:03:12] Tracey.Rivers: We should definitely bring her along.
[23.09.2024 22:03:56] Tracey.Rivers: She's from Kusari. Sort of.
[23.09.2024 22:04:09] Lazurith: Born and raised there.
[23.09.2024 22:04:18] Tracey.Rivers: Yeah.
[23.09.2024 22:04:26] Lazurith: Oop. There she is. I'll go pick 'er up.

[23.09.2024 22:09:26] O>)Makiri[S]: Most around here carry the Zoner banner out of Erie, backed by the PLF.
[23.09.2024 22:09:32] Green.Spear: Insurgents is kind of a taboot one.
[23.09.2024 22:09:33] O>)Makiri[S]: Or at least in tandem with them.
[23.09.2024 22:09:37] [OOC] Green.Spear: taboo*
[23.09.2024 22:09:47] O>)Makiri[S]: Yeah, it is, isn't it.
[23.09.2024 22:09:54] O>)Makiri[S]: After that whole shitshow in Vespucci.
[23.09.2024 22:09:59] Green.Spear: I'm personally disappointed with the PLF show of double standards as of late.
[23.09.2024 22:10:10] O>)Makiri[S]: Oh? Like what?

[23.09.2024 22:10:57] Green.Spear: They shoot down Navy's ships while they congregate with other bad actors that display similar modus operandi as the Navy.
[23.09.2024 22:11:02] Green.Spear: Against zoners, no less.
[23.09.2024 22:11:14] O>)Makiri[S]: What, Xenos?
[23.09.2024 22:11:22] Green.Spear: Xenos? Nah.
[23.09.2024 22:11:26] Tracey.Rivers: Alright. Ready to go?
[23.09.2024 22:11:30] Green.Spear: The Xenos don't mess with zoners, never did.
[23.09.2024 22:11:35] Green.Spear: The technocrats.
[23.09.2024 22:11:46] Lazurith: Uh, yeah, sure. I just had a question for this individual here.
[23.09.2024 22:11:49] O>)Makiri[S]: Technocrats shooting Zoners. Interesting.
[23.09.2024 22:11:52] O>)Makiri[S]: Hm?
[23.09.2024 22:11:56] Lazurith: Wait, huh?
[23.09.2024 22:12:03] Lazurith: When'd that happen?
[23.09.2024 22:12:08] Lazurith: Why in the world would they--
[23.09.2024 22:12:14] Green.Spear: Back in August, if I recall correctly.
[23.09.2024 22:12:35] Green.Spear: Why you think these two tin-men are prisoners?
[23.09.2024 22:12:53] Lazurith: I don't know. There's a billion reasons why anyone would want to hinder Technocrats.
[23.09.2024 22:13:05] Green.Spear: Ain't that the truth.
[23.09.2024 22:13:10] Green.Spear: A billion and one, now.
[23.09.2024 22:13:12] Lazurith: Trust me, I would know.
[23.09.2024 22:14:00] Lazurith: Sooo...

[23.09.2024 22:14:38] Lazurith: Was it payback?
[23.09.2024 22:15:05] O>)Makiri[S]: That's something I'd like to know as well.
[23.09.2024 22:15:06] Green.Spear: Oh, they're consider valid combat targets within zones of interest now.
[23.09.2024 22:15:15] [OOC] Green.Spear: considered*
[23.09.2024 22:15:28] Tracey.Rivers: The hell does that mean?
[23.09.2024 22:15:41] Green.Spear: It means we drop the hammer when we see them.
[23.09.2024 22:15:48] Green.Spear: Much like with the Liberty authorities.
[23.09.2024 22:16:03] Tracey.Rivers: Someone ordered you to do that?
[23.09.2024 22:16:07] Lazurith: ...Cool.
[23.09.2024 22:16:14] Green.Spear: More or less.
[23.09.2024 22:16:31] Lazurith: But... you're after belligerent Technocrats. Right?
[23.09.2024 22:16:39] Lazurith: Like, patrol ships, and stuff.
[23.09.2024 22:16:58] Green.Spear: You'll have to elaborate.
[23.09.2024 22:17:25] O>)Makiri[S]: Are you engaging any civilians in their society, do we have to fucking draw you a venn diagram?
[23.09.2024 22:18:19] Green.Spear: Combat targets are combat targets.
[23.09.2024 22:18:27] Green.Spear: Logistic vessels aren't among those.
[23.09.2024 22:18:36] Lazurith: Ah, gotcha.
[23.09.2024 22:18:41] Green.Spear: Unless proven otherwise.
[23.09.2024 22:19:26] Lazurith: What counts as a combat target?
[23.09.2024 22:19:56] O>)Makiri[S]: Probably anything with their sigil on it.
[23.09.2024 22:20:26] O>)Makiri[S]: I swear if my ROE didn't keep me from blasting this guy for squawking a Zoner Ident, I'd smear his ass across the hull of th

[23.09.2024 22:20:28] O>)Makiri[S]: is place.
[23.09.2024 22:20:45] Green.Spear: Fighter class, gunships and bigger... Etcetera.
[23.09.2024 22:20:47] Green.Spear: The usual stuff.
[23.09.2024 22:21:54] Lazurith: Mm. Righto.
[23.09.2024 22:22:10] Death: UC/-Falcu|S was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[23.09.2024 22:22:16] Lazurith: Ah well. It's sad to see that there has been an escalation at all.
[23.09.2024 22:22:24] Lazurith: But we can't go through one day without one.
[23.09.2024 22:22:32] Lazurith: No matter where 'ya look, really.
[23.09.2024 22:22:39] Green.Spear: Yeah, you'd think they had the plate full already with the LSF and Xenos.
[23.09.2024 22:23:38] Lazurith: They might get horribly shafted. And should things go butt up...
[23.09.2024 22:23:53] Lazurith: Well, just don't go after their civvies, is all I'm saying.
[23.09.2024 22:24:14] Lazurith: Tin people or not, they're still human.
[23.09.2024 22:24:34] Green.Spear: We usually don't, unlike them we don't shoot at civilians.
[23.09.2024 22:24:36] O>)Makiri[S]: Seconded. Or I'm going to say screw the ROE and kick your ass from here to O-Delta.
[23.09.2024 22:25:07] Tracey.Rivers: That's a long kick.
[23.09.2024 22:25:28] Green.Spear: You're rather sympathetic of a bunch that shot zoners, buddy.
[23.09.2024 22:25:51] O>)Makiri[S]: I've only got your word to go on. In my line of work words are nice until hard facts prove otherwise.
[23.09.2024 22:26:05] Green.Spear: Too bad you didn't even ask for evidence.
[23.09.2024 22:26:33] Green.Spear: Given your default position I'm inclined to believe it wouldn't change much.
[23.09.2024 22:26:34] O>)Makiri[S]: Who did they even shoot at to cause such a stir for you then.
[23.09.2024 22:26:46] O>)Makiri[S]: You've got an audience here, I'm willing to give you a chance.
[23.09.2024 22:27:00] Green.Spear: They attacked a defense vessel at Fourteen, unprovoked.
[23.09.2024 22:27:07] O>)Makiri[S]: And that vessel was...?
[23.09.2024 22:27:14] O>)Makiri[S]: No hull designation, no captain's name?
[23.09.2024 22:27:20] Green.Spear: And refused to solve the incident diplomatically.
[23.09.2024 22:27:23] Green.Spear: Time and time again.
[23.09.2024 22:27:38] Lazurith: ...Huh. There had to be a very specific reason why they would do something like that.
[23.09.2024 22:27:56] O>)Makiri[S]: You want me to convince people up the chain you're not full of shit, give me a name to look into.
[23.09.2024 22:28:00] Laplace.Vector: Seems I have arrived at some talk, already.
[23.09.2024 22:28:01] Green.Spear: Some baseless bullshit about the vessel being affiliated with the LFR.
[23.09.2024 22:28:40] Tracey.Rivers: The LFR?
[23.09.2024 22:28:48] Green.Spear: The Liberty Free Republic.
[23.09.2024 22:28:50] Laplace.Vector: That silly project the Xenos do.
[23.09.2024 22:29:25] Tracey.Rivers: Hm. Everyone's got a cause.
[23.09.2024 22:29:30] O>)Makiri[S]: Oh yeah, those fuckers. About as competent as a Rogue at an Ageira Break-The-Box event.
[23.09.2024 22:29:53] O>)Makiri[S]: At least last time I saw them.
[23.09.2024 22:30:04] O>)Makiri[S]: Though OSINT doesn't show much change from the status quo.
[23.09.2024 22:30:10] Green.Spear: Yet the technocrat bunch thinks they'd manage to have a Hel-class among their fleet.
[23.09.2024 22:30:23] Laplace.Vector: Isn't there a dreadnought in their fleet?
[23.09.2024 22:30:25] O>)Makiri[S]: So it's a Hel-class.
[23.09.2024 22:30:27] O>)Makiri[S]: And yes.
[23.09.2024 22:30:29] O>)Makiri[S]: They do.
[23.09.2024 22:30:36] O>)Makiri[S]: Liberty Rose, stationed outside of their home plate.
[23.09.2024 22:30:36] Green.Spear: Two.
[23.09.2024 22:30:40] Green.Spear: They have two.
[23.09.2024 22:30:41] O>)Makiri[S]: That and the Harmony.
[23.09.2024 22:30:50] O>)Makiri[S]: We took lots of nice pictures.
[23.09.2024 22:30:54] Green.Spear: The former LNS-Alabama.
[23.09.2024 22:30:57] Laplace.Vector: Why would it be out of the question to have cruisers?
[23.09.2024 22:31:16] O>)Makiri[S]: Any idiots with enough manpower can run a cruiser. Being combat effective is another story.
[23.09.2024 22:31:31] Green.Spear: Because they're allegedly too incompetent to have such thing, according to my allegedly Zoner Militant colleague.
[23.09.2024 22:32:01] O>)Makiri[S]: IFF may decieve you - Militant I am, but we're not with the Zoners.
[23.09.2024 22:32:11] Green.Spear: To surprise of no one.
[23.09.2024 22:32:13] O>)Makiri[S]: We help them.. yes. But we don't associate with their society.
[23.09.2024 22:32:21] O>)Makiri[S]: More for their sake than ours.
[23.09.2024 22:32:24] Laplace.Vector: Funny that you fly their colors, then.
[23.09.2024 22:32:45] O>)Makiri[S]: Again, IFF issues. We've been meaning to sort it out somehow. Anywho, enough about me, let's talk about you.
[23.09.2024 22:32:54] O>)Makiri[S]: What is the name of this Hel-class ship you keep alluding to.
[23.09.2024 22:33:02] O>)Makiri[S]: Or rather, dodge the question about.
[23.09.2024 22:33:39] Green.Spear: Far from it, the name's Tundra.
[23.09.2024 22:33:48] O>)Makiri[S]: Tundra.
[23.09.2024 22:34:04] O>)Makiri[S]: Okay. Thank you. (off mic) -- fucking pulling teeth here..
[23.09.2024 22:34:07] O>)Makiri[S]: Alright.
[23.09.2024 22:34:18] O>)Makiri[S]: I'll take this to my abettors and see what comes back.
[23.09.2024 22:34:34] Lazurith: Thank you!
[23.09.2024 22:34:43] O>)Makiri[S]: Uhuh.
[23.09.2024 22:34:55] Laplace.Vector: Quite a hostile state of affairs.
[23.09.2024 22:35:18] O>)Makiri[S]: Matriarch, Makiri.
[23.09.2024 22:35:31] O>)Makiri[S]: H: Go for *Lilith*, Makiri.
[23.09.2024 22:36:37] O>)Makiri[S]: Sorry. Can you have Subdigital and Kourindou run a check for a 'Tundra'? Hel-class Cruiser, apparently Zoner Militant?
[23.09.2024 22:36:47] O>)Makiri[S]: H: Will do. How were the locals?
[23.09.2024 22:37:36] O>)Makiri[S]: One of them had two Auxesians in their hold. Said something about that ship being fired upon by their kind aggressively.
[23.09.2024 22:38:31] O>)Makiri[S]: H: .. interesting. Head back to Freeport 14 and await instructions. Rest of your wing should be on station now.
[23.09.2024 22:38:40] O>)Makiri[S]: What about the intel, ma'am? Any action?
[23.09.2024 22:38:57] O>)Makiri[S]: H: Yes. I'll talk to Yoruha about it.
[23.09.2024 22:39:14] O>)Makiri[S]: H: In the meantime, see if you can get in touch with any of their mid-command, ask about it as well.
[23.09.2024 22:39:26] O>)Makiri[S]: Understood, ma'am.
The man apparently has a bone to pick with them because of some Hel-class ship they engaged, the Tundra. According to Auxesia, the Tundra was a Militant ship squawking Liberty Insurgency IFF and had been abusing the NFZ. Apparently they were ejected by OSI, who according to OSINT, has a controlling stake in the installation.
[23.09.2024 23:50:39] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: You'll be limited to the public decks.
[23.09.2024 23:50:41] O>)Makiri[S]: Fleet coming home to roost?
[23.09.2024 23:51:05] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: Slowly but surely, yes.
[23.09.2024 23:51:20] O>)Makiri[S]: Good to hear. Who do I have the pleasure of speaking to?
[23.09.2024 23:51:23] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: Hello, West.
[23.09.2024 23:51:28] IN|G-INS-Incursus: West: 'sup.
[23.09.2024 23:51:43] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: Preparing the defenses. I'm sure you heard the news from Megiddo.
[23.09.2024 23:51:51] IN|G-INS-Incursus: West: Mhm.
[23.09.2024 23:51:56] IN|G-INS-Incursus: West: Asses need kicking.
[23.09.2024 23:52:25] O>)Makiri[S]: I bet they do. Especially of the LSF variety.. Or whatever the hell else comes out of the jump holes here at this point.
[23.09.2024 23:53:25] O>)Makiri[S]: Also, I hope I'm complying with the exclusion zone. Rather not my first encounter with you all be with bad manners.
[23.09.2024 23:55:58] O>)Makiri[S]: I actually came to ask a question.
[23.09.2024 23:56:04] O>)Makiri[S]: If you've the time to do so.
[24.09.2024 00:02:03] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: Speak your question here.
[24.09.2024 00:02:29] O>)Makiri[S]: Understood. I assume since you're at the helm of that ship, you're someone in the mid-command at the very least.
[24.09.2024 00:02:40] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: I'm head of the military.
[24.09.2024 00:03:11] O>)Makiri[S]: I'm Major Kensington, head of Sanzu Special Developments Group, Battlegroup Ouroboros. I was wanting to inquire on a matter
[24.09.2024 00:03:35] O>)Makiri[S]: that was brought to my attention earlier. Essentially, I had been at Barrier Gate, and came across a Zoner Militant with two
[24.09.2024 00:03:42] O>)Makiri[S]: of your men in his hold.
[24.09.2024 00:03:47] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: Name?
[24.09.2024 00:03:56] TFP)-Scythe: Greets.
[24.09.2024 00:04:33] O>)Makiri[S]: Name was Green Spear, for reference. I would have engaged, but IFF issues made such difficult. Same with being in the NFZ.
[24.09.2024 00:04:48] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: Barrier Gate has no NFZ.
[24.09.2024 00:05:04] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: Though this reflects a report I alreadt received prior from an operative in the area.
[24.09.2024 00:05:11] O>)Makiri[S]: The question is - his casus belli. He mentioned a ship that we've -- noted -- never heard of before, being attacked by
[24.09.2024 00:05:31] O>)Makiri[S]: Auxesia in the past, the 'Tundra'.
[24.09.2024 00:06:03] A/)-ACV-Achlys: A rogue Zoner vessel flying Insurgent identifiers which abused the NFZ and was evicted by the admins.
[24.09.2024 00:06:22] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: He has already paid for his crimes, and is likely striking out in vengeance.
[24.09.2024 00:06:36] O>)Makiri[S]: We've no OSINT leads to go off of, so my commander advised I consult with you or your greater command.
[24.09.2024 00:06:38] O>)Makiri[S]: I see.
[24.09.2024 00:08:19] O>)Makiri[S]: If you've got any intelligence, records, camfootage or anything that you'd be willing to provide.. when the time allows - gi
[24.09.2024 00:08:34] O>)Makiri[S]: ven the complete shitshow we're about to be in, it'd be greatly appreciated by me and Hanamura both.
[24.09.2024 00:08:58] O>)Makiri[S]: That being answered, I'll leave you to your preparations. Lord knows I'm not going to sleep at all this week.
Finally, i've linked up with the rest of my element and we're ready to engage snubcraft threats. However, if funding could be acquired, some bombers stored here on the Freeport would be a nice addition. Conditions here at the Freeport are tense and we can see it in the people here. I remember your talks about the defense of Carthage, Hanamura - and it's just like what you said. Controlled chaos teetering into anarchy.
Makiri, out.

SENDER: Commander Nodoka Hanamura, Battlegroup Ouroboros RECIPIENT: ALL STATIONS, KAMUYMOSIR INTRANET SUBJECT: TASKING ORDERS - SEPTEMBER 24TH, 834 AS
ALL STATIONS:
A change to our forward operations plan has been made.
Effective immediately, the Rathgrith II, Anko and Skidbladnir will strip from the main fleet and report to Singapore Shipyard.
Once repairs to the Skidbladnir, Rathgrith II and Anko have been made, they will be deployed to Inverness. I will be requesting the yardmaster at Singapore to expedite maintenance and repairs if possible, so we can get these ships back into combat. The Skidbladnir, until OCS Tochigi is combat effective, will assume actual of Task Force Shirikunne, with Major Song acting as temporary head of this element and its' snubcraft escort - as part of what we are calling Operation Chinita-Raii.
Personnel not assigned to Task Force Shirikunne, will be part of Operation Amabie. I understand some are questioning my judgement in this. But our destiny is intertwined with the Technocracy. If Auxesia falls, we will be in a much more hostile world than we were before, and are now. We will survive. But we must invest and take risks even now, to ensure our future.

I've received word that Song's taking a task force out to link up with us - Given her experience with Auxesia, this should be familiar footing for her and I look forward to working with her in the battlespace. We've also received the funding sent by Kobayashi for the Bombers. Give her my thanks. I'm also reporting that my unit has acknowledged CENTCOM directives to not base operations from the Freeport. I'm actively working to try and get us some sort of permanent access to Valravn, because to be blunt ma'am, some of these Junkers still remember us going out of town with Seraphine, and they're not exactly too happy about us being here.
Suffice to say, the Technocrats have the situation mostly under control. Raids into the West Avelmore have been successful for us and for them, with a large amount of confirmed LSF and Crayterian casualties. We've also noticed an uptick in what looks to be Xeno forces operating in the system, at least if my observations from Freeport 14 are to be accurate. To be blunt, ma'am, I know you said any means necessary, but in a situation like what I saw from here, it was pandemonium, and I'm not sending my men to die pointlessly in that.
During patrols for threats, coming back, I engaged a potential infectee, Gert Mann. I and a Zoner Militant defending the freeport engaged him and took care of the issue.
[24.09.2024 21:05:28] O>)Makiri![S]: Need a hand there?
[24.09.2024 21:05:37] Sundancer: Yeah.
[24.09.2024 21:05:41] O>)Makiri![S]: Got it.
[24.09.2024 21:05:45] O>)Makiri![S]: Weapons hot.
[24.09.2024 21:05:47] Sundancer: Just drive it off.
[24.09.2024 21:06:01] Sundancer: Don't-- let it near statino!
[24.09.2024 21:12:26] O>)Makiri![S]: He's all yours, Zoner. Put the bastard out of his misery.
[24.09.2024 21:13:00] O>)Makiri![S]: Going to move these guys to medical. Some of your own got hit bad earlier.
[24.09.2024 21:16:35] Gert.Mann was shot out of the skies by Sundancer (76%)
[24.09.2024 21:16:35] Assisted by: O>)Makiri![S] (24%)
[24.09.2024 21:16:41] O>)Makiri![S]: Good kill.
[24.09.2024 21:16:48] Sundancer: *cough*
[24.09.2024 21:16:55] O>)Makiri![S]: I'll be getting out of your hair. Hope you're not too banged up.
[24.09.2024 21:17:20] Sundancer: N-Nah. I did not experience that k-kind *cough* combat in months or years.
[24.09.2024 21:17:23] Sundancer: Shit.
[24.09.2024 21:17:29] Sundancer: Thanks for assist.
[24.09.2024 21:17:35] O>)Makiri![S]: Any time.
[24.09.2024 21:17:40] O>)Makiri![S]: Ouroboros stands with the Zoners.
[24.09.2024 21:18:28] Sundancer: Ouroboros, sounds familiar.
[24.09.2024 21:18:36] Sundancer: Good to know.
Suffice to say, we've still got some notoriety, it seems.
I came across the Auxesians operating in coordination with some Nomads. Spoke something about being able to suppress them. Apparently, according to the Xenobiotic Response Team, they're Vagrant-types, Nomads from back when Lonestar and his merry band of men fucked off all over Sirius to stop the Colony Wars.
[24.09.2024 21:18:44] O>)Makiri![S]: Welp, talk about another party.
[24.09.2024 21:18:48] O>)Makiri![S]: You need a hand?
[24.09.2024 21:20:27] O>)Makiri![S]: Nomads..? What the..
[24.09.2024 21:20:33] O>)Makiri![S]: ..
[24.09.2024 21:20:37] O>)Makiri![S]: I'm just gonna nod and shoot.
[24.09.2024 21:20:49] A/)-ACV-Function: ::Shoot what target::
[24.09.2024 21:21:02] O>)Makiri![S]: The LSF goons, who else?
[24.09.2024 21:21:27] A/)-ACV-Function: ::We have them under some experimental pacifation technology::
[24.09.2024 21:21:49] A/)-RV-Bental: Yup, yup, Psi Blockers.
[24.09.2024 21:22:03] A/)-RV-Bental: We're completely imperceptible to them.
[24.09.2024 21:22:05] A/)-RV-Bental: Don't move...
[24.09.2024 21:22:14] A/)-RV-Bental: They can't see you if you're still.
[24.09.2024 21:22:29] Vagrant.Wing.of.Psyche: [The Nomad seems more preoccupied with the LSF and Crayterian invaders.]
[24.09.2024 21:23:57] O>)Makiri![S]: One less!
[24.09.2024 21:24:04] O>)Makiri![S]: And on the Nomad topic.. noted.
While I've no reason to doubt the Auxesians are working on some sort of Anti-Nomad technology, something about all this seems really off. Commander Hanamura, might I suggest reaching out to Yoruha about all this? Or talking to Leviathan?
Anywho.. the whole situation just seems odd. That's all I'm saying. At least the Nomads were only blasting the OPFOR. I'll give them that much.
When do you think we can expect that Task Force to arrive? If this is only the spark of things, then when shit really kicks off, I bet it's going to be much worse.
Makiri, out.

The situation regarding Auxesia and these Vagrants will be dealt with by me personally. Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES are you to divulge this information to any parties outside of myself and CENTCOM. If you or anyone in your unit is found to disobey this directive I will see to it that you or the offending party are dealt with - SEVERELY.
I can trust you to keep your word, but I want you understand the gravity of which we are dealing with here. Auxesia and the Nomads being even remotely amicable or even in a position where it can be misconstrued as such can spell disaster for us and for them as well. I will confront Leviathan at the earliest opportunity about this - Believe me when I say this situation had me spitting out tea when it crossed my desk.
When you return you and your team are to undergo immediate Xenobiotic scans to verify cognitive and physical integrity. Report back with additional operations reports on this net as usual, and keep me posted with updates.

Day two, linked up with that newbie you sent. Surprised you gave her a Maj-Aspirant rank, but fuck if she can't at least pull her weight.
Familiarization flight went off without a hitch, Stopped by Cortez since she really wanted to visit it, and then onward to Coronado to get something to eat since Invergordon's not exactly known for decent food quality.
After the Famflight we went our seperate ways - a few hours later we returned to support Technocrats in the theater near the Ontario hole. Was expecting Xeeners to crop up, but instead we were greeted by LSF Archer squadrons barricading the hole. We made quick work of them and also managed to resupply with the ACV Titania.
Following that, we engaged with a Order Gunboat which.. to my dismay, I got bested by a mine and sent colliding into Invergordon. Thankfully, no superstructure damage but damn it the right wing wasn't busted up. I won't let you down next time, ma'am.
The situation in the system has stabilized, with continued engagements at the same level as before according the Ootori Drones. They even got footage of a furball involving the Order and Crayter out near the Freeport, with the loss of multiple cruisers on the Crayter side of the fray. Suffice to say the Auxesians are definitely able to punch above their weight.
I saw Mieko in the field. She was operating as the WSO for some Promethean, couldn't get their callsign. That and from what I hear, some of my men are rearing to see her again. Hopefully we can arrange a reunion after this whole goatfuck.
Also, I understand your directive loud and clear.
Also, when can we expect Song and them to be on station?
Makiri, out.

So this happened - Akiha was out like a light while LSF were hassling Auxesians out near the Freeport. I scrambled from Invergordon to prosecute the threat to find the Auxesians in need of a fight.
After the engagement, I made contact with Venator Aether, to try and get some sort of envoy for you and Kobayashi since Auxesia's occupied with the world being on fire around them.
I'd advise making contact with them when this blows over.
[25.09.2024 22:36:25] O>)Makiri[S]: Well look who it is. Tweedle Dee, Tweedle Dumb and Tweedle dumber who I saw earlier.

[25.09.2024 22:37:34] O>)Makiri[S]: IFF update on that Hunter.
[25.09.2024 22:37:36] TFP)-Scythe: Right. What do we have here?
[25.09.2024 22:37:41] TFP)-Scythe: Is assistance required?
[25.09.2024 22:37:57] Guepard-1: The bounty hunter is hired to defend the Freeport.

[25.09.2024 22:42:28] A/)-Leviathan: Jumping back in.
[25.09.2024 22:42:30] TFP)-Scythe: Seems Revenant's in trouble.

[25.09.2024 22:42:50] O>)Makiri[S]: Protecting Auxesian HVT.

[25.09.2024 22:44:26] =LSF=Penumbra: Y'know, in my line of work, we have a saying.
[25.09.2024 22:44:28] =LSF=Penumbra: This sucks.
[25.09.2024 22:44:35] O>)Makiri[S]: Yeah, for you.
[25.09.2024 22:44:37] A/)-Leviathan: You should pick a better line of work.
[25.09.2024 22:44:39] =LSF=Penumbra: Yeah. For me.
[25.09.2024 22:44:40] A/)-Revenant: Vacuum does indeed suck

[25.09.2024 22:44:44] Jerry.Novac: Business.

[25.09.2024 22:46:49] A/)-Revenant: Damn.
[25.09.2024 22:46:55] A/)-Leviathan: Damn. I got bonked.
[25.09.2024 22:47:03] Jerry.Novac: Dangit, I gotta dip, folks.
[25.09.2024 22:47:05] =LSF=Penumbra: I can't speak and drive very well.
[25.09.2024 22:47:09] Jerry.Novac: Thank y'all.
[25.09.2024 22:47:10] A/)-Revenant: Nor can I

[25.09.2024 22:47:22] O>)Makiri[S]: Yeah, maybe tell that to HIGHCOM when you get back.
[25.09.2024 22:47:23] A/)-Revenant: On a date?
[25.09.2024 22:47:28] =LSF=Penumbra: Afterwards, maybe.
[25.09.2024 22:47:29] TFP)-Mason:Tennyson: We gonna explain why a Hunter, was helping out against the LSF?
[25.09.2024 22:47:38] =LSF=Penumbra: I sure fucking hope he intends to.
[25.09.2024 22:47:38] TFP)-Scythe: Strange turn of events.
[25.09.2024 22:47:39] A/)-Leviathan: I was curious myself.
[25.09.2024 22:47:41] A/)-Revenant: I have no idea why that is the case.
[25.09.2024 22:47:46] A/)-Revenant: Guess the Zoners had more money?
[25.09.2024 22:47:50] Guepard-1: He was not assisting yours.
[25.09.2024 22:47:53] A/)-Revenant: Or maybe he's going back into the life of crime.
[25.09.2024 22:47:56] A/)-Revenant: You know.
[25.09.2024 22:48:01] A/)-Revenant: Withdrawal symptom
[25.09.2024 22:48:04] =LSF=Penumbra: Coming awfully close there, Revenant.
[25.09.2024 22:48:08] A/)-Revenant: Close.
[25.09.2024 22:48:11] =LSF=Penumbra: Might wanna watch out.
[25.09.2024 22:48:19] O>)Makiri[S]: God, were you two roommates or something, Navarch?
[25.09.2024 22:48:23] A/)-Revenant: You're getting closer to the mines.
[25.09.2024 22:48:40] =LSF=Penumbra: Honestly? Just jealous of the name.
[25.09.2024 22:48:46] =LSF=Penumbra: Penumbra ain't got shit on "Revenant". Fuck me.
[25.09.2024 22:48:51] A/)-Revenant: I stole it.
[25.09.2024 22:48:55] A/)-Revenant: Copyrighted.
[25.09.2024 22:49:01] =LSF=Penumbra: You know, I was offered to pick a codename. I just told 'em "The sorta thing-
[25.09.2024 22:49:03] =LSF=Penumbra: Dude.
[25.09.2024 22:49:04] O>)Makiri[S]: You're stealing something else from him too, at this rate.
[25.09.2024 22:49:05] =LSF=Penumbra: Lemme talk.
[25.09.2024 22:49:07] A/)-Revenant: Oh
[25.09.2024 22:49:08] A/)-Revenant: Sorry.
[25.09.2024 22:49:11] A/)-Revenant: Monologue away.
[25.09.2024 22:49:12] A/)-Revenant: Please.
[25.09.2024 22:49:19] A/)-Revenant: I need to hear your villain origin lore.
[25.09.2024 22:49:20] TFP)-Scythe: That spook's talkative.
[25.09.2024 22:49:20] =LSF=Penumbra: Right, right, so as I was saying.
[25.09.2024 22:49:37] =LSF=Penumbra: I told 'em "Just pick whatever you think your twelve-year-old son would come up with."
[25.09.2024 22:49:38] TFP)-Mason:Tennyson: I think our wayward... robot is going "full ham" as they say it.
[25.09.2024 22:49:40] =LSF=Penumbra: Hence the name.
[25.09.2024 22:49:40] [FL]-Tycho: Leo: Hoya, everyone.
[25.09.2024 22:49:46] TFP)-Mason:Tennyson: Not sure how much ham is in there though.
[25.09.2024 22:50:02] A/)-Revenant: What happens if the kid picks a good name?
[25.09.2024 22:50:02] O>)Makiri[S]: Who?
[25.09.2024 22:50:02] TFP)-Scythe: And he's coming for you, Rev.
[25.09.2024 22:50:05] A/)-Revenant: Woah.
[25.09.2024 22:50:08] A/)-Revenant: Okay.
[25.09.2024 22:50:09] =LSF=Penumbra: God. This little shit.
[25.09.2024 22:50:12] A/)-Revenant: Origin story over then.
[25.09.2024 22:50:19] O>)Makiri[S]: Wait, right, this is Auxesia we're talking about.
[25.09.2024 22:50:21] O>)Makiri[S]: Nevermind.
[25.09.2024 22:50:26] =LSF=Penumbra: That's not an origin story. Just how I picked my name, dumbass.
[25.09.2024 22:50:31] A/)-Revenant: That's an origin story.
[25.09.2024 22:50:34] =LSF=Penumbra: My origin story is much longer, deeper and darker.
[25.09.2024 22:50:35] A/)-Revenant: Your name carries a story.
[25.09.2024 22:50:37] Tip: You were a new player once. If you see someone making obvious mistakes, talk to them and help them.
[25.09.2024 22:50:38] =LSF=Penumbra: I was raised an urchin-
[25.09.2024 22:50:40] =LSF=Penumbra: God. This thing.
[25.09.2024 22:50:43] A/)-Revenant: You're a sea urchin?
[25.09.2024 22:50:46] TFP)-Mason:Tennyson: Hey Revenant, when you go for a party, do they call you Ravenant?
[25.09.2024 22:50:48] =LSF=Penumbra: In another life.
[25.09.2024 22:50:52] O>)Makiri[S]: He's eager, gotta admire his spirit.
[25.09.2024 22:50:59] O>)Makiri[S]: Wish we had men like him in our ranks.
[25.09.2024 22:51:02] A/)-Revenant: Choomba is just trying to live up to his expectations.
[25.09.2024 22:51:09] A/)-Revenant: Okay. Here we go.
[25.09.2024 22:51:10] A/)-Revenant: Jousting.
[25.09.2024 22:51:19] TFP)-Scythe: He's got the basics.
[25.09.2024 22:51:28] A/)-Revenant lost a fight with =LSF=Penumbra (94%)
[25.09.2024 22:51:28] Assisted by: A/)-Leviathan (5%)

[25.09.2024 22:51:32] O>)Makiri[S]: Friendly down!
[25.09.2024 22:51:33] =LSF=Penumbra: Her own fucking fault, wasn't it?
[25.09.2024 22:51:35] TFP)-Scythe: I warned you.
[25.09.2024 22:51:36] Guepard-1: *he chuckles*
[25.09.2024 22:51:41] O>)Makiri[S]: Okay, playtime's over.
[25.09.2024 22:51:41] A/)-Leviathan: *Sighing* As usual.
[25.09.2024 22:52:10] O>)Makiri[S]: Take a nap.
[25.09.2024 22:52:20] =LSF=Penumbra: I'm not tired yet.

[25.09.2024 22:52:31] O>)Makiri[S]: Tough shit, bud.
[25.09.2024 22:52:43] A/)-Leviathan: I'm returning home.
[25.09.2024 22:52:48] TFP)-Scythe: Has Rev's escape pod been accounted for?
[25.09.2024 22:52:51] TFP)-Scythe: Leviathan?
[25.09.2024 22:52:52] A/)-Leviathan: I've got her, yes.
[25.09.2024 22:52:56] O>)Makiri[S]: Good to hear.
[25.09.2024 22:53:42] O>)Makiri[S]: Navarch Leviathan.
[25.09.2024 22:53:47] A/)-Leviathan: What?
[25.09.2024 22:53:51] O>)Makiri[S]: Permission to seek repairs at Valravn.
[25.09.2024 22:54:17] A/)-Leviathan: Wh-... Why are you requesting something that's already accessible to Zoners and Millitants?
[25.09.2024 22:54:23] A/)-Leviathan: Just do it.
[25.09.2024 22:54:51] 2024-09-25 22:54:49 SMT Traffic control alert: TFP)-Scythe has docked
[25.09.2024 22:54:56] O>)Makiri[S]: Understood. I have standing orders from my commander not to enter the Exclusion zone unless authorized by a Auxesian operator

[25.09.2024 22:59:40] O>)Makiri[S]: Thank you for the repairs.
[25.09.2024 23:00:00] O>)Makiri[S]: I.. hoped to speak with Leviathan but it seems the mess here has him busy everywhere.
[25.09.2024 23:00:05] A/)-Aether: We're quite good at such, I believe.
[25.09.2024 23:00:12] O>)Makiri[S]: If I may ask, your rank?
[25.09.2024 23:00:14] A/)-Aether: Mm. I was looking for him myself.
[25.09.2024 23:00:18] A/)-Aether: Venator.
[25.09.2024 23:00:34] O>)Makiri[S]: Venator. Major Brett Kensington, Ouroboros Sanzu DEVGRU.
[25.09.2024 23:01:06] A/)-Aether: Pleased to meet you, Major.
[25.09.2024 23:01:54] A/)-Aether: Perhaps I could put out a notice for him.
[25.09.2024 23:01:57] O>)Makiri[S]: Likewise. Our commander's been trying to get in touch with Leviathan, but.. heh, seems like little luck as of late.
[25.09.2024 23:02:15] Leo.III: ::Navigational Hazard, Mines::
[25.09.2024 23:02:36] O>)Makiri[S]: We'd appreciate - given our.. unique situation, given our IFF dilemma, to request limited access to Valravn for rearm, repair
[25.09.2024 23:03:02] O>)Makiri[S]: and possibly shelter. Command says Freeport 14's no-go since they're not wanting to base Non-zoners, and Invergordon..
[25.09.2024 23:03:09] O>)Makiri[S]: Well.. you've seen that place, I'm certain.
[25.09.2024 23:04:42] A/)-Aether: Hm, yes. The situation in the Freeport has escalated as of late, hasn't it.
[25.09.2024 23:04:56] A/)-Aether: The ongoing traffic is what led me back here, actually.
[25.09.2024 23:04:58] O>)Makiri[S]: Yes. Hanamura doesn't want us pissing off the Zoners.
[25.09.2024 23:05:20] O>)Makiri[S]: Very delicate situation, and the fact she has.. personal wishes not to irk them.
[25.09.2024 23:05:23] A/)-Aether: I'm unfortunately out of the loop regarding these late developments.
[25.09.2024 23:05:45] A/)-Aether: As I said, I've relocated here exactly because of this. I apologise I can't be of much help right now.
[25.09.2024 23:05:55] O>)Makiri[S]: Entirely understandable. If there's some sort of envoy we can speak to on Leviathan's behalf, or anything of the sort, it'd be
[25.09.2024 23:05:57] O>)Makiri[S]: appreciated.
[25.09.2024 23:06:01] Death: SEO|T-Ruhr suffered a self-inflicted catastrophic decompression.
[25.09.2024 23:06:16] A/)-Aether: I prognosticate I will require additional briefings.
[25.09.2024 23:06:23] O>)Makiri[S]: And it's fine. Just let him know we would like to request shelter and basing ability here. Hell, we'll take cold sandwiches and
[25.09.2024 23:06:27] O>)Makiri[S]: sleep in our ships.

[25.09.2024 23:07:04] A/)-Aether: As far as envoys to him can go, I can certainly be of use with that.
[25.09.2024 23:07:11] O>)Makiri[S]: Last thing we want is to piss you guys off.

[25.09.2024 23:07:44] O>)Makiri[S]: In the meantime, back to the floating space wreck.
[25.09.2024 23:07:47] A/)-Aether: There is much to gain with fraternization with us. Likewise, there are harsh consequences for crossing us.
[25.09.2024 23:07:49] O>)Makiri[S]: Take care, Venator.
[25.09.2024 23:07:53] O>)Makiri[S]: Of course.
[25.09.2024 23:07:54] A/)-Aether: Take care.
Makiri, out.

SENDER: Major Jae-un Song, Battlegroup Ouroboros RECIPIENT: CENTCOM; TASKFOR SHIRIKUNNE SUBJECT: Deployment Status
Hanamura - Whatever you did talking to the Guild got the RCS thrusters greased on this mess faster than I've ever seen. Some guy under that lady Roche, says we should be good to deploy by Friday at 0700 at the earliest. Everyone I've talked to from the Guild's been pretty decent to talk to, word travels fast. Even spoke to some lady from a base up north.. Akibara? Don't think she's related to Kyu. Chill lady though. Asked if we'd be interested in possibly looking into doing some logistics runs out of Falkland and what not for a bit of cash.
Just something for you and Alexei to think about.
Anywho, our men are as ready as we can be, running a small squadron of gunboats and a Corvo of all things. I know this is a lot to ask of them, especially right now, but can we try and work towards getting an actual combat vessel, since from what it looks like, Utsunomiya's gonna be in the dry dock for weeks if not months alongside Tochigi. I don't think the IMG's going to just give us a Sagarmatha, and I bet you're going to have to explain how Utsunomiya has IMG sensors on it from some of those cruisers. At least they're those older 810s era ones, so I don't think Roche will roast us for that... Though that's up to you and Kobayashi to navigate. You know me - Diplomacy is not my forte.
If I can suggest, reach out to The Platform, see if they might have contacts that can arrange the sale of one of those Hels. Since Utsunomiya's gonna be in Drydock for a bit, we might as well shift our main fleet to operate through that for the moment.
Anywho, I'll let you all know when we set sail.
Also, Hanamura. I hope you don't mind me trying to reach out to Firmitas if he's in the field. Or letting Mieko aboard. Girl deserves a hug for the hell we put her through.

Your work in the field is exemplary - even with that minor setback and I couldn't be prouder of you and your men. I'm certain my father would be as well. A show of force against the LSF and Order like that is just what we need to show that Ouroboros is not without fangs.
I'll be consulting on medals and commendations for our forces to boost morale. But you definitely have earned a Battle E equivalent for this - you and your unit as a whole.
Keep up the great work, and inform Akiha of her commendation as well.
Major Song,
Bride - I..
You're right. I hate to say it, but you're right. And dare I say we may need to contemplate the construction of a second Bustard-class as an Aviation Battlecruiser to complement Tochigi as well, but that'll be something to be planned at the end of the year when we may have the numbers for it, if the sudden spark in interest in us continues as is. I guess word through the Sirian underworld spreads just as fast as it does for the guildsmen working on our fleet.
Once Utsunomiya and Tochigi are in Drydock, I'll reach out personally to meet with Civil Servant alongside Setsuna, see what options they may have for us. In the meantime though, I've decided that if we're to be effective from the outset, instead of using what dregs Mieko left us, we need to build up resources. I'm dispatching the 1st Logistics Squadron under Master Sergeant Ueno's command to begin logistics operations. It's not StarCat, but it'll suffice for now. Alexei will be tasked to oversee the operation - We've been made aware of a station in Coronado that sells Copper at deep discount.. and there's one place we both know that'll always be clamoring for it - and it's one we know very, very well.
I'll be tasking them to do regular runs between there and Freeport 11 on Murasaki, along with a light fighter escort from your command. Murasaki surprisingly is built like a whale. All she'll need is the reactor control rods changed out, according to Alexei - and Java should be able to do that for us without a dry dock.
We'll be having the fighter escort return to us later next week for Amabie. I remember you telling me you're worried about me splitting us up like this. Rest assured - I know what I'm doing. At least this time.
