Be advised that there has been a recent de-escalation according to Ootori UAS systems in the combat theater. The Prometheans and Auxesia have suffered some battle damage but seem to be repelling the Crayterians and their Libertonian betters sufficiently. Order presence has dropped in recent hours as well.
Excellent work from all forces in the theater. Task Force Shirikunne will continue as fragged to the AO to continue to support forces in contact in tandem with Kensington's element. On that note, I'll be moving Kensington's unit into its' own independent command, Special Purpose Section 9, callsign 'Untak'.
Bride, I expect you to alert me the moment you leave drydock with the task force. Report your armament, crew and condition once on station, and report to the northern periphery of the West Avelmore. You are not to dock with Freeport 14, and will be under the same restrictions as SPECPURSEC9 - Do not enter the Valravn Special Exclusion Zone which spans 20k around the installation, without Auxesian authorization. I know you want to see Mieko and Firmitas. I'm willing to allow that if it doesn't interfere with your duties, but we need to focus on the plan here. Keep the LSF, Order and Crayterians out of Inverness, by reason or by force.

Crayterians advanced on Valravn today in tandem with other OPFOR and tried to destroy the damned thing. Fighter complement and I did what we could but they overran us. After I was shot down, they bugged out, Why I don't know. Maybe they were late for fun time with Lady Liberty, the old hag.
Later one of the Technocrats, Choomba, was having trouble with a straggling spook who decided to stay at Valravn. I engaged the target and terminated him within the perimeter. Managed to have a discussion with some of the Technocrats about our situation, passed that word on.. and also, Hanamura - Revenant's rank is Progenitor, not Navarch.

[26.09.2024 19:10:55] O>)Makiri[S]: Yeah.. and I think the guy was running off to the Crayterian capitals for support too. .. You alright there, kid?
[26.09.2024 19:11:06] O>)Makiri[S]: Earlier, I mean.
[26.09.2024 19:11:11] Choomba: --Earlier?-
[26.09.2024 19:11:30] O>)Makiri[S]: Yeah. Whole battlegroup of Crayterians with Order and LSF snubcraft support rolled in.

[26.09.2024 19:14:01] O>)Makiri[S]: You did your best, and I know you'll do better.
[26.09.2024 19:14:08] Choomba: ------------Thanks-
[26.09.2024 19:14:11] O>)Makiri[S]: .. Lemme tell you a little something.
[26.09.2024 19:14:21] O>)Makiri[S]: I used to be LSF for a short time.
[26.09.2024 19:14:38] O>)Makiri[S]: Originally I wanted to join the Navy.
[26.09.2024 19:14:44] O>)Makiri[S]: Dad served, as did his.
[26.09.2024 19:14:51] O>)Makiri[S]: So I wanted to continue the legacy.

[26.09.2024 19:15:28] O>)Makiri[S]: Went to West Point, did my time there, was going to be a CIC officer on some LABC.
[26.09.2024 19:15:30] Choomba: ---Correction.---Goals---*aspirations---
[26.09.2024 19:16:02] O>)Makiri[S]: But then a LSF agent is waiting for me in my CO's office, and offers me a transfer to the Security Force.
[26.09.2024 19:16:07] O>)Makiri[S]: I took the offer.
[26.09.2024 19:16:28] Choomba: --LSF---Deeper pockets-

[26.09.2024 19:18:59] O>)Makiri[S]: He then had me transferred to Chadwick, and I was tasked as singleton on a counter-intelligence mission.
[26.09.2024 19:19:08] A/)-Grouse: Hm, hi.

[26.09.2024 19:19:51] O>)Makiri[S]: Apparently some ex-DSE guys were getting a bit too popular. Wanted me to take them down as they were heading to Kusari.
[26.09.2024 19:20:10] Death: Revendeur.II suffered a self-inflicted catastrophic decompression.
[26.09.2024 19:20:20] O>)Makiri[S]: I'm briefed about this on the way.
[26.09.2024 19:20:48] O>)Makiri[S]: And the moment I realize who we're engaging - I don't want in on it. They gave all these excuses of "They're working with Hogos
[26.09.2024 19:20:58] O>)Makiri[S]: ha and the Rogues" and I don't buy it.
[26.09.2024 19:21:19] Choomba: ---Needed--Silencing--Assuming?-
[26.09.2024 19:21:37] O>)Makiri[S]: I strip from the area, turn off my Link 32 transponder, and just gun it for the border. I knew my family would disown me for
[26.09.2024 19:21:56] O>)Makiri[S]: this. So I didn't bother stopping by Denver to say goodbye.
[26.09.2024 19:22:30] O>)Makiri[S]: I make my way to Freeport 14, and sell my Defender to some Junker. Can't keep it.

[26.09.2024 19:23:35] Stellarum: Hello again.
[26.09.2024 19:23:46] A/)-Grouse: V: It's okay, they're not the angry spook kind.
[26.09.2024 19:23:47] Stellarum: Hope I'm not interrupting anything.
[26.09.2024 19:23:58] Choomba: --Simply---Listening.--
[26.09.2024 19:24:12] Stellarum: Awfuly trigger-happy, that Militant.

[26.09.2024 19:24:34] Stellarum: Indeed.
[26.09.2024 19:24:48] Stellarum: Do you propose I make my presence known beforehand over system-wide comms?

[26.09.2024 19:25:05] O>)Makiri[S]: I'd rather you not engage in electro-optical warfare, genius.
[26.09.2024 19:25:15] O>)Makiri[S]: If you're gonna do that, at least shut up.
[26.09.2024 19:25:19] Stellarum: No part of me is engaged in any sort of warfare with you.
[26.09.2024 19:25:28] Stellarum: It's the least of my interests.
[26.09.2024 19:25:34] A/)-Leviathan: If the two of you are done exchanging silly words, perhaps you'd like to enlighten me to the reason you're here.
[26.09.2024 19:25:42] O>)Makiri[S]: Electro-Optical Warfare, EOW - cloaking, do they teach you nothing at.. wherever the hell you are from?
[26.09.2024 19:25:49] A/)-Grouse: V: Checking for a certain individual, I was told.
[26.09.2024 19:25:55] Stellarum: You just made that term up.
[26.09.2024 19:25:59] A/)-Grouse: V: This was earlier, mind you.
[26.09.2024 19:26:04] Stellarum: Still the same.
[26.09.2024 19:26:06] O>)Makiri[S]: Riiiiight. Someone tell West Point.
[26.09.2024 19:26:18] Stellarum: [She chuckles] Do you think I'm LSF?
[26.09.2024 19:26:32] A/)-Leviathan: No, I know who you are and who you work for.
[26.09.2024 19:26:35] O>)Makiri[S]: You could the fucking candywoman for all I know.

[26.09.2024 19:26:50] Stellarum: Obviously wasn't pointed to you, Leviathan.
[26.09.2024 19:26:50] A/)-Leviathan: Though you should know your organization is welcome here. There's no reason to mask yourself.
[26.09.2024 19:27:02] Stellarum: I'm not hiding from you, friends.
[26.09.2024 19:27:17] A/)-Grouse: V: Probably all the other fauna that's.. unwelcome here at the moment.
[26.09.2024 19:27:23] Stellarum: Operational safety procedures.

[26.09.2024 19:29:55] A/)-Leviathan: Well whatever the case, if you'd like to talk I can send you some coordinates.
[26.09.2024 19:30:11] O>)Makiri[S]: I'm not a Zoner, as much as the IFF would have you believe.
[26.09.2024 19:30:24] Stellarum: I haven't even looked at your IFF.
[26.09.2024 19:30:42] Rules Tip: This is a roleplay server, so keep your ship's name in line with the setting. Do not use references to pop-culture such as memes or distasteful subjects.

[26.09.2024 19:30:50] O>)Makiri[S]: Then what makes you think I'm a Zoner. For all you know I could be a nomad in a trenchcoat.

[26.09.2024 19:31:51] Stellarum: As far as I know, those are Zoners.

[26.09.2024 19:39:51] O>)Makiri[S]: Maybe they can tell Golanski that when they tried to Whack Hanamura and the rest of us, they missed.

[26.09.2024 19:40:54] O>)Makiri[S]: Wanted to Glass Gran Can too, apparently.

[26.09.2024 19:41:43] O>)Makiri[S]: We were called for general assembly on the Seraphine, our old flagship.
[26.09.2024 19:42:00] O>)Makiri[S]: It was an Aquilon that Hanamura carried over from her time at Freeport 11.
[26.09.2024 19:42:05] O>)Makiri[S]: Used to be called Dragostea.
[26.09.2024 19:42:24] O>)Makiri[S]: We'd been trying to find a dock for it to get proper repairs and refits but.. anywho..
[26.09.2024 19:42:39] O>)Makiri[S]: I remember her standing before us in the assembly hall.
[26.09.2024 19:42:50] O>)Makiri[S]: She told us about how she got to this point.
[26.09.2024 19:43:13] O>)Makiri[S]: How she was a First Generation Kusari - something we didn't believe, until we saw the records she presented.
[26.09.2024 19:43:42] O>)Makiri[S]: Her dad, was one of the Alliance captains who saw people out of Sol. The ANS Covington.
[26.09.2024 19:44:14] O>)Makiri[S]: Family tree, birth certificates, I'm surprised Kusari's records are that meticulate. LSF loses track of SITREPs from 10 years a
[26.09.2024 19:44:23] O>)Makiri[S]: go, and yet Kusari Vital Statistics has shit from Sol.
[26.09.2024 19:44:27] O>)Makiri[S]: Go figure.
[26.09.2024 19:44:39] O>)Makiri[S]: Anywho - She tells us, why she's here.
[26.09.2024 19:44:46] O>)Makiri[S]: Why she's not buried on New Tokyo or some shit.
[26.09.2024 19:45:16] O>)Makiri[S]: Kusari state and Kishiro decided it'd be lovely to keep a few people on ice after colonization for experimenting on over the
[26.09.2024 19:45:17] O>)Makiri[S]: years.
[26.09.2024 19:45:25] O>)Makiri[S]: She was one of em.
[26.09.2024 19:45:39] O>)Makiri[S]: She lost her mother, brother and sister.
[26.09.2024 19:45:54] O>)Makiri[S]: It was bad enough they had to leave their dad behind in Sol.
[26.09.2024 19:46:20] O>)Makiri[S]: Kusari's predecessor, Japan, I think it was.
[26.09.2024 19:46:31] O>)Makiri[S]: She talked about how it was so much better than Kusari is now.
[26.09.2024 19:46:53] O>)Makiri[S]: Women were treated right, equality among the sexes - they were apparently trying to work towards better work conditions.
[26.09.2024 19:47:12] O>)Makiri[S]: But then the Coalition came along and fucked up everything for entire Alliance.
[26.09.2024 19:47:25] Choomba: --buncha--commmies-
[26.09.2024 19:47:42] O>)Makiri[S]: Not even Communists. Just Authoritarians.
[26.09.2024 19:47:55] A/)-Grouse: V: Never understood that lot, they have an axe to grind. Figured not enough was lost yet.
[26.09.2024 19:48:14] O>)Makiri[S]: You know that old saying that communists say about failed states of theirs? "That's not real communism?"
[26.09.2024 19:48:28] A/)-Grouse: V: Actually.. not
[26.09.2024 19:48:45] O>)Makiri[S]: That's because 'real communism' is a joke. Goes against human nature.
[26.09.2024 19:49:04] O>)Makiri[S]: You centralize power in one authority, the person closest to the top's going to try and secure it for themselves.
[26.09.2024 19:49:22] O>)Makiri[S]: Anywho.
[26.09.2024 19:49:50] O>)Makiri[S]: She was trying to keep the show going, but setback after setback pushed us into bad position after bad position.
[26.09.2024 19:50:16] O>)Makiri[S]: Eventually, we were assaulted by the GMG. I wouldn't be surprised if Golanski paid them off to do it.
[26.09.2024 19:50:28] O>)Makiri[S]: We lost a lot of people on FOB Maehara, our main base in the region.
[26.09.2024 19:50:43] O>)Makiri[S]: We had to pack up everything and run, and do it in deep space no less.
[26.09.2024 19:51:05] O>)Makiri[S]: Using the Seraphine's jump drives to get us from the Sigmas to the Taus.
[26.09.2024 19:51:14] Rules Tip: Do not threaten a player with reports or sanctions. If you see someone breaking server rules - help them. If that does not work - report them to the administration team on the Forums.
[26.09.2024 19:51:17] DTR-El_Conquistador was taken out by DTR-Sangria (97%)
[26.09.2024 19:51:47] O>)Makiri[S]: A couple of weeks in.
[26.09.2024 19:52:07] O>)Makiri[S]: We're about half way back to Sirius.
[26.09.2024 19:52:26] A/)-Leviathan: I thought we were in Inverness.
[26.09.2024 19:52:33] O>)Makiri[S]: We're readying for another jump, and all of a sudden, this massive dark energy pulse comes our way.
[26.09.2024 19:52:39] 2024-09-26 19:52:36 SMT Traffic control alert: A/)-Leviathan has docked
[26.09.2024 19:52:42] O>)Makiri[S]: Just telling a story, Navarch.
[26.09.2024 19:52:51] A/)-Leviathan: Just a joke. Don't mind me. Hunting.
[26.09.2024 19:52:55] O>)Makiri[S]: Got it.
[26.09.2024 19:53:15] A/)-Grouse: V: He's a comedian at heart, bless him.
[26.09.2024 19:53:25] O>)Makiri[S]: Eh, gotta have that spirit in the field.
[26.09.2024 19:53:39] O>)Makiri[S]: Can't be super serious all of the time. Anywho.
[26.09.2024 19:53:53] A/)-Grouse: V: Continue, anyway.
[26.09.2024 19:53:55] O>)Makiri[S]: The pulse hits us, just as the drive's fully charged.
[26.09.2024 19:54:02] O>)Makiri[S]: And shit.
[26.09.2024 19:54:03] O>)Makiri[S]: Hits.
[26.09.2024 19:54:05] O>)Makiri[S]: The fan.
[26.09.2024 19:54:30] O>)Makiri[S]: From what I read of the debrief.
[26.09.2024 19:54:59] O>)Makiri[S]: The jump drive got overloaded by the burst of energy passing through, and that proceeded to cause the regulators to fail
[26.09.2024 19:55:15] O>)Makiri[S]: and back-build the *ENTIRE* power load onto the main voltage line, back to the reactor.
[26.09.2024 19:55:33] O>)Makiri[S]: The reactor malfunctions, casing starts to crack and barely holds.
[26.09.2024 19:56:18] O>)Makiri[S]: Miranov, who's on maintenance, him and his men are fortunately able to get it into a quick SCRAM and spin up the auxiliary gen.
[26.09.2024 19:56:51] O>)Makiri[S]: Those Livadia ones.. The Zoners - we may not be one of em, but we sure as shit can count the times they helped us in one way or
[26.09.2024 19:56:52] O>)Makiri[S]: another.
[26.09.2024 19:57:06] O>)Makiri[S]: Anywho - the Livadia Shipbuilding generator kicks on.
[26.09.2024 19:57:20] O>)Makiri[S]: We've about 8 hours.
[26.09.2024 19:57:38] O>)Makiri[S]: Eight hours to get shit off the ship, before it's filled with hard radiation.
[26.09.2024 19:57:45] O>)Makiri[S]: We manage to get it done in 5.
[26.09.2024 19:58:10] O>)Makiri[S]: Hanamura stays aboard with the command crew for the last three to run checks and god knows what else.
[26.09.2024 19:58:22] O>)Makiri[S]: And they take the command escape pod out.
[26.09.2024 19:59:16] O>)Makiri[S]: Everyone's on the Utsunomiya at this point, Shukensha we stole from some independent corporation, Starcat.

[26.09.2024 19:59:44] O>)Makiri[S]: Because.. given Sera's condition, it was more likely than not.

[26.09.2024 20:02:20] O>)Makiri[S]: Anywho.
[26.09.2024 20:02:40] O>)Makiri[S]: Hanamura and them decided to scuttle Seraphine. She wanted the ship to die a dignified death.
[26.09.2024 20:02:52] O>)Makiri[S]: Not just sitting as a husk in space, never to be found again.
[26.09.2024 20:03:06] O>)Makiri[S]: Reactor spun up one last time, went to full power and..
[26.09.2024 20:03:15] O>)Makiri[S]: Well, I think you can guess what happened next.
[26.09.2024 20:03:26] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Mm, sad end for a ship really.
[26.09.2024 20:03:40] O>)Makiri[S]: Indeed. She lived a good life.
[26.09.2024 20:03:49] O>)Makiri[S]: As Dragostea she fought against Order and Nomads both.
[26.09.2024 20:04:04] O>)Makiri[S]: So can't say she didn't have one helluva ride.
[26.09.2024 20:04:25] O>)Makiri[S]: I know Hanamura would have rather she go down taking down a Tokugawa.
[26.09.2024 20:04:34] O>)Makiri[S]: But sadly that never came to pass.
[26.09.2024 20:04:38] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Honestly, I share that sentiment.
[26.09.2024 20:04:55] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: That's...

[26.09.2024 20:05:23] O>)Makiri[S]: We.. we took to our stations in the makeshift cryobay in the cargo hold.
[26.09.2024 20:06:05] O>)Makiri[S]: We were packed in like sardines, but it was that or all eventually die from starvation. We didn't have enough supplies for the
[26.09.2024 20:06:19] O>)Makiri[S]: worst case scenario, not enough room, and Command felt cryosleep was best.
[26.09.2024 20:06:30] O>)Makiri[S]: So into the cold night we went for 8 or so years.
[26.09.2024 20:06:46] O>)Makiri[S]: Woke up back in July, a few clicks from the Tau Corridor.
[26.09.2024 20:07:48] O>)Makiri[S]: Our main force now is in the Taus, laying in wait to get the main fleet to somewhere in the region for repairs.
[26.09.2024 20:08:45] O>)Makiri[S]: Earlier this week, Sanzu was ordered to send a flight out here, since we got word you guys were in a mess.
[26.09.2024 20:09:13] O>)Makiri[S]: Suffice to say, Hanamura's banking on Auxesia's help in one degree or another. Our plan more or less, is to support allies in t
[26.09.2024 20:09:15] O>)Makiri[S]: he region.
[26.09.2024 20:09:25] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: A mess is an understatement.
[26.09.2024 20:09:29] O>)Makiri[S]: Hanamura knows you guys since she fought alongside Leviathan and your own in Delta all those years ago.
[26.09.2024 20:09:47] O>)Makiri[S]: Said Auxesia was the finest fighting force she ever saw.
[26.09.2024 20:10:02] O>)Makiri[S]: Would sooner trust Auxesia with defending the freeport than the Core.
[26.09.2024 20:10:30] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: We are legitimately interested in preserving life though, most people fail to grasp this.
[26.09.2024 20:10:32] O>)Makiri[S]: We're also in contact with the Mollies out in Dublin.
[26.09.2024 20:11:19] O>)Makiri[S]: Oh I know. Last thing we want is people going home in caskets, but sadly them getting into fights with our friends is not
[26.09.2024 20:11:22] O>)Makiri[S]: doing them any favors.
[26.09.2024 20:11:37] O>)Makiri[S]: Not to mention Hanamura intends us to pitch in with the Erie situation.
[26.09.2024 20:11:48] Tip: You were a new player once. If you see someone making obvious mistakes, talk to them and help them.
[26.09.2024 20:11:52] O>)Makiri[S]: I can tell she has quite a bit of guilt from leaving 11 and taking Sera with her like she did.
[26.09.2024 20:12:28] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: I was otherwise.. well. I wasn't here when that crisis occurred, all I know is we need to do something about it.
[26.09.2024 20:12:28] O>)Makiri[S]: I've only personally known her for a couple of months, since we reformed as a Battlegroup.

[26.09.2024 20:14:07] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: There's a reason I abandoned the Navy, however long ago it was now. Liberty has this.. stench about it.
[26.09.2024 20:15:00] O>)Makiri[S]: But yeah, we'd been trying to get in touch with Leviathan over all this, get a meeting. But that was before this mess and.. now
[26.09.2024 20:15:01] O>)Makiri[S]: ?
[26.09.2024 20:15:30] O>)Makiri[S]: I guess we've got the opportunity to do that with actions instead of the words of someone like Kobayashi in Mizurashi Section.
[26.09.2024 20:16:26] O>)Makiri[S]: Me and my wingman so far, Akiha - have been doing what we can to pitch in.
[26.09.2024 20:16:33] /si me
[26.09.2024 20:16:35] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Mm. For what it's worth, thank you.

[26.09.2024 20:17:41] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: The pair of you fought like hell yesterday, it was nothing short of commendable.

[26.09.2024 20:20:05] O>)Makiri[S]: that?
[26.09.2024 20:20:34] O>)Makiri[S]: They're LSF, not Liberty Navy.
[26.09.2024 20:20:39] O>)Makiri[S]: Speaking of Navy...
[26.09.2024 20:20:48] O>)Makiri[S]: Good god, how far has the navy gone.
[26.09.2024 20:21:00] O>)Makiri[S]: One of our own from back in the day - Yoruha, she goes by now.
[26.09.2024 20:21:25] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: It was in a state of decay when I left and that was... what. 821 AS?
[26.09.2024 20:21:28] O>)Makiri[S]: She's been flying with you guys for a while. In fact, Hanamura told her - if we don't come back, go to Leviathan.
[26.09.2024 20:21:38] O>)Makiri[S]: So I guess she did.
[26.09.2024 20:21:53] O>)Makiri[S]: Anywho - news reports, about you guys and her, sinking ships left and right.
[26.09.2024 20:22:04] O>)Makiri[S]: In mainstream news no less.
[26.09.2024 20:22:16] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Mm. We attract the wrong sort of headlines.
[26.09.2024 20:22:24] O>)Makiri[S]: Bet you someone at West Point was fuming over those.
[26.09.2024 20:22:29] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: I'm guessing most of the context was missing as usual.
[26.09.2024 20:22:52] O>)Makiri[S]: It was a brief, you guys engaged, blasted it out of the stars..
[26.09.2024 20:23:09] O>)Makiri[S]: There was one that mentioned that the Bretonians tried to reach out to Liberty about security concerns.
[26.09.2024 20:23:20] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Thing is, if we're the ones blasting, the guys on the receiving end deserved it.
[26.09.2024 20:23:30] O>)Makiri[S]: Oh we know.
[26.09.2024 20:23:49] O>)Makiri[S]: Liberty's just as much a tyrrany as Bretonia is these days.

[26.09.2024 20:26:01] O>)Makiri[S]: We don't care for them either.
[26.09.2024 20:26:07] Death: CNS-Cantabria suffered a self-inflicted catastrophic decompression.
[26.09.2024 20:26:25] O>)Makiri[S]: I mean, we're from Kusari, Gaijin (//foreigners)) or no, we're going to get our asses kicked by them.
[26.09.2024 20:26:32] O>)Makiri[S]: So it's only fair to reciprocate.
[26.09.2024 20:26:55] O>)Makiri[S]: We reached out to Prometheus in the hopes of getting intel on who all the hell makes up their ORBAT so we might be able to find

[26.09.2024 20:28:23] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: He's just annoying, more than anything.
[26.09.2024 20:28:25] O>)Makiri[S]: What's got some Freelancer up in a fuss with you guys, anywho?

[26.09.2024 20:30:45] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Contact, LSF.
[26.09.2024 20:30:51] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Closing rapidly.
[26.09.2024 20:31:08] Cherry.Blossom: S-S-..Suic-idal.
[26.09.2024 20:31:13] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: What is the major malfunction with these idiots. All gun crews to stations.
[26.09.2024 20:31:55] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Hah. Didn't even move from this chair.
[26.09.2024 20:31:56] [OOC] O>)Makiri[S]: Kage
[26.09.2024 20:32:05] Tip: Are you a new player? Discovery Freelancer is not the easiest game to get your head around. If you have any questions of any kind, do not feel discouraged or embarrassed to ask them on our forum or simply approach other players for help.
[26.09.2024 20:32:11] O>)Makiri[S]: You got a death wish, SECFOR driver?
[26.09.2024 20:32:34] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: You know something, I just wanted to end my days in Sigma 17.
[26.09.2024 20:32:51] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Sit there, with my Grouse flying bar and watch the sun.
[26.09.2024 20:32:56] O>)Makiri[S]: You heading in, Choomba?
[26.09.2024 20:32:58] 2024-09-26 20:32:55 SMT Traffic control alert: Choomba has docked
[26.09.2024 20:33:13] Choomba: --Yes-
[26.09.2024 20:33:23] O>)Makiri[S]: Take care bud. Good fighting today.
[26.09.2024 20:33:26] 2024-09-26 20:33:24 SMT Traffic control alert: Choomba has docked
[26.09.2024 20:33:45] O>)Makiri[S]: Wish I had more men like him in our ranks. Though I wonder what's up with his speech.
[26.09.2024 20:33:52] O>)Makiri[S]: Does he have some sort of impediment?
[26.09.2024 20:34:04] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: He hasn't really said, all I know is he knows how to fly that thing.
[26.09.2024 20:34:16] O>)Makiri[S]: Alright then.
[26.09.2024 20:34:32] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Do you ever get... /tired/ of things.
[26.09.2024 20:34:38] O>)Makiri[S]: You gonna come over here, or do we have to come to you, Spook?
[26.09.2024 20:34:46] O>)Makiri[S]: I don't do delivery for free.
[26.09.2024 20:35:06] O>)Makiri[S]: Sometimes.
[26.09.2024 20:35:15] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Probing tactics I suspect.
[26.09.2024 20:35:28] O>)Makiri[S]: Back when shit was going south around the time Maehara went up.. yeah. I was getting kinda tired. A lot of us were.
[26.09.2024 20:35:55] O>)Makiri[S]: But we kinda relied on one another, those of us that stayed, at least.
[26.09.2024 20:36:14] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Without good people then what is there?
[26.09.2024 20:36:29] O>)Makiri[S]: Once we left the sigmas, we thought of going to the Taus as a chance for a fresh start. Until the whole mess kicked off.
[26.09.2024 20:36:35] O>)Makiri[S]: Not much if anything.
[26.09.2024 20:36:44] O>)Makiri[S]: We got through the struggle together.
[26.09.2024 20:36:56] O>)Makiri[S]: It tested our faith in the cause.
[26.09.2024 20:37:22] O>)Makiri[S]: And those of us here today, who didn't perish - we're alive because of it.
[26.09.2024 20:37:42] O>)Makiri[S]: Strength in numbers, Victory - among friends.
[26.09.2024 20:37:46] O>)Makiri[S]: Even if they're the little ones.
[26.09.2024 20:38:04] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Mmhm. I'd raise a glass to that notion but I'm out of drink.
[26.09.2024 20:38:16] O>)Makiri[S]: I'd raise a glass but I can't fit one in here.
[26.09.2024 20:38:26] O>)Makiri[S]: Need better bombers, too..
[26.09.2024 20:38:28] Cherry.Blossom: [Low] F-Friends... those don't exist. Only traitors.
[26.09.2024 20:38:47] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: I suspect we're both suffering the same amount in the booze department.
[26.09.2024 20:38:58] O>)Makiri[S]: Guess you've had your fair share of betrayals, huh.
[26.09.2024 20:39:19] O>)Makiri[S]: What's a girl like you with a sweet name like that doing in a dour mood, huh?
[26.09.2024 20:39:51] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: I mean the mood would be better... with booze.
[26.09.2024 20:40:15] O>)Makiri[S]: Any of the stations here in Inverness sell any?
[26.09.2024 20:40:28] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: I checked, that would be a negatory.
[26.09.2024 20:40:34] O>)Makiri[S]: Well shit.
[26.09.2024 20:40:38] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: I can't even get to Cortez to obtain more.
[26.09.2024 20:40:44] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: There's uh, a fleet in the way.
[26.09.2024 20:41:20] Cherry.Blossom: A-And my mo-ood is like that b-because I keep f-i-nding people that b-etray me in the long run. And I am g-etting t-..ired.
[26.09.2024 20:41:30] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: No traitors here.
[26.09.2024 20:41:33] O>)Makiri[S]: Nope.
[26.09.2024 20:41:34] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: I can promise you that much.
[26.09.2024 20:41:54] O>)Makiri[S]: Sorry to hear you're having shit luck like that.
[26.09.2024 20:42:04] /si me
[26.09.2024 20:42:20] /si me
[26.09.2024 20:43:45] Cherry.Blossom: Tsssk. M-Maybe I should really start f-lying the Technocracy colors. Th-The thing holding me back.. bet-trayed me.
[26.09.2024 20:44:27] O>)Makiri[S]: Ouroboros is always looking for people too. And you won't be too far from the Technocrats.
[26.09.2024 20:44:44] O>)Makiri[S]: Though, that being said, it's a bit rude to recruit on an ally's turf.
[26.09.2024 20:44:54] O>)Makiri[S]: [He chuckles a bit, embarassed.]
[26.09.2024 20:45:08] O>)Makiri[S]: No pressure.
[26.09.2024 20:45:29] O>)Makiri[S]: Technocrat or Ouroboros, you'll be among people who I'm certain will treat you a fair sight better than whoever you were with b
[26.09.2024 20:45:30] O>)Makiri[S]: efore.
[26.09.2024 20:46:31] [OOC] O>)Makiri[S]: I honestly wonder if there's an Ainu word for Cherry Blossom that isn't a loan word from Japanese
[26.09.2024 20:48:02] [OOC] Cherry.Blossom: I.. have no clue
[26.09.2024 20:48:40] [OOC] O>)Makiri[S]: I know, I just was saying.
[26.09.2024 20:49:00] Cherry.Blossom: Blinded for so long... By a dream. A shining light, but I realized... the dark is so much more comfortable..
[26.09.2024 20:49:34] O>)Makiri[S]: I.. see.
[26.09.2024 20:50:05] O>)Makiri[S]: Well, whatever floats your boat, hun.
[26.09.2024 20:50:18] Cherry.Blossom: I wish I was on a boat. But sadly, I am not.
[26.09.2024 20:50:58] O>)Makiri[S]: A cruise would be nice, wouldn't it.
[26.09.2024 20:51:25] A/)-Crescent: Well met, everyone.
[26.09.2024 20:52:19] Rules Tip: Do not run Freelancer at a framerate above 155fps - for more information on this, please visit our forums @ Discoverygc.com.
[26.09.2024 20:52:32] O>)Makiri[S]: Greetings.
[26.09.2024 20:52:42] Cherry.Blossom: H-Hello th-there.
[26.09.2024 20:53:41] A/)-Crescent: It's surely ... odd to see both a Freelancer, and especially a member of the militants this close to Valravn.
[26.09.2024 20:54:15] A/)-Crescent: However, what's with the stuttering, Blossom? Are you alright?
[26.09.2024 20:54:23] Cherry.Blossom: Th-The Bird has g-given me her permission. O-Otherwise I wo-ould already b-be evict-ted I guess.
[26.09.2024 20:55:02] Cherry.Blossom: A-And y-es. Th-..is is n-ormal.
[26.09.2024 20:55:18] O>)Makiri[S]: Well, We're militants, but not the militants you're probably thinking of.
[26.09.2024 20:55:31] A/)-Crescent: I'm not here to kick anyone out, especially not with Titania present.
[26.09.2024 20:55:33] O>)Makiri[S]: I came in to assist an Auxesian who was being harassed by an LSF operative.
[26.09.2024 20:55:51] A/)-Crescent: That's your daily good deed, isn't it, Makiri?
[26.09.2024 20:56:09] O>)Makiri[S]: Daily? More like hourly.
[26.09.2024 20:56:12] A/)-Crescent: I am wondering what other kind of militants there are, especially in a system such as Inverness.
[26.09.2024 20:56:15] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: The Militant is here because I said they can be, they fought like hell with us the other day.
[26.09.2024 20:57:25] A/)-Crescent: Very well Titania, as mentioned, I had no intention of telling them off. The more the merrier.
[26.09.2024 20:57:28] Death: LNS-Beast*** was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[26.09.2024 20:57:33] O>)Makiri[S]: Major Brett Kensington. Battlegroup Ouroboros, Sanzu Special Developments Group.
[26.09.2024 20:57:42] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Apologies. I was attending a.. well. Something broke.
[26.09.2024 20:57:57] Cherry.Blossom: D-Did you hit it u-until it worked a-..gain?
[26.09.2024 20:58:09] O>)Makiri[S]: Ah, Percussive maintenance.
[26.09.2024 20:58:14] O>)Makiri[S]: Can't go wrong with a bit of that.
[26.09.2024 20:58:23] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: More directing the necessary repair.
[26.09.2024 20:58:25] A/)-Crescent: Nice to meet you, Major.
[26.09.2024 20:58:39] O>)Makiri[S]: At least it was until they told me not to enter the Server Room again.
[26.09.2024 20:58:49] O>)Makiri[S]: Speaking as their CO.. that was awkward.
[26.09.2024 20:59:15] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Issue for us is Titania is really old. The electrical systems desperately need help.
[26.09.2024 20:59:58] O>)Makiri[S]: If our guys in Hakugyokurou weren't desperately keeping Utsunomiya and Tochigi from falling apart I bet Miranov'd send speciali
[26.09.2024 21:00:02] O>)Makiri[S]: sts out to take a look..
[26.09.2024 21:00:07] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: However the worst issue of all is the empty bar, frankly.
[26.09.2024 21:00:29] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: But yes, we were struggling a fair bit yesterday trying to service fighters and keep our main battery in the fight.

[26.09.2024 21:00:40] O>)Makiri[S]: Cherry.
[26.09.2024 21:00:55] O>)Makiri[S]: Do the Titania a favor for me, go fetch them some wine from Curacao.
[26.09.2024 21:01:06] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: But I wasn't about to withdraw and leave the lot of you to hang in the breeze, either.
[26.09.2024 21:01:08] O>)Makiri[S]: Stock your hold with as much as you can, keep the change.
[26.09.2024 21:01:40] Cherry.Blossom: Uhhm. I d-do have.. my t-transport moored on the C-Citadel. I th-think.
[26.09.2024 21:02:58] Cherry.Blossom: E-Elaine. S-et course to Cortez. Y-You have control.
[26.09.2024 21:03:11] Cherry.Blossom: Elaine: I have control. Setting course. Let's see if the new engines work.
[26.09.2024 21:04:03] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Well. That's simply delightful.
[26.09.2024 21:04:27] O>)Makiri[S]: Hail, Navarch Revenant.
[26.09.2024 21:04:32] A/)-Revenant: I'm not a Navarch.
[26.09.2024 21:04:40] O>)Makiri[S]: Apologies. Request rank?
[26.09.2024 21:04:48] A/)-Revenant: Progenitor.
[26.09.2024 21:04:53] O>)Makiri[S]: Progenitor, understood.
[26.09.2024 21:05:00] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Regardless, nice to see you.

[26.09.2024 21:07:04] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: On the upside that nice freelancer is off getting some drink to restock the bar.
[26.09.2024 21:07:07] Cherry.Blossom: [Incoming long-range transmission- Accept Y/N]
[26.09.2024 21:07:13] O>)Makiri[S]: [ACCEPT]
[26.09.2024 21:07:22] A/)-Revenant: That's very thoughtful of them.
[26.09.2024 21:07:28] A/)-Revenant: I've been mooching around.
[26.09.2024 21:07:33] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Anything interesting?
[26.09.2024 21:07:35] Cherry.Blossom: "This is Cherry. There is a C-Crayterian Capital V-Vessel close to the Jump Hole to Inverness."
[26.09.2024 21:07:39] O>)Makiri[S]: Yeah, I tossed them 40k to restock the titan...
[26.09.2024 21:08:06] O>)Makiri[S]: /r "Understood. Are they hassling you?"
[26.09.2024 21:08:14] O>)Makiri[S]: "Understood, are they hassling you?
[26.09.2024 21:08:16] [OOC] O>)Makiri[S]: rip
[26.09.2024 21:08:32] Cherry.Blossom: "L-Let me pass. But j-just so you kn-now the way is blocked for.. hostile entities."
[26.09.2024 21:08:44] O>)Makiri[S]: "Understood. I'll pass it on."
[26.09.2024 21:08:48] O>)Makiri[S]: So uh..
[26.09.2024 21:08:51] [OOC] Cherry.Blossom: Also there is no wine sold on Curacao xD
[26.09.2024 21:09:01] O>)Makiri[S]: Our friendly neighborhood Freelancer..
[26.09.2024 21:09:25] O>)Makiri[S]: Says the Crayterians have a capital blockading the hole to Inverness on the Coronado side.
[26.09.2024 21:09:48] O>)Makiri[S]: Not an offer to engage, just.. thought you'd like the Intel.
[26.09.2024 21:10:01] [OOC] O>)Makiri[S]: rip, I could have sworn, what do they have?
[26.09.2024 21:10:11] [OOC] Cherry.Blossom: Gin, Ale, and luxury food
[26.09.2024 21:10:14] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Useful, send them my thanks. I had figured that might be the case, hence why I've not tried an approach.
[26.09.2024 21:10:21] [OOC] O>)Makiri[S]: Get a mix of Gin and Ale
[26.09.2024 21:10:39] O>)Makiri[S]: "The Titania sends their thanks for the intel, Cherry."
[26.09.2024 21:11:15] O>)Makiri[S]: And there's the other half of the dynamic duo.
[26.09.2024 21:11:27] A/)-Leviathan: Shouldn't you be guarding a Freeport or something?
[26.09.2024 21:11:51] O>)Makiri[S]: Not my responsibility. Especially since we don't have authority there.
[26.09.2024 21:12:04] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Where is he off to now?
[26.09.2024 21:12:12] O>)Makiri[S]: Your guess is as good as mine.
[26.09.2024 21:12:15] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Man does some space miles.
[26.09.2024 21:12:29] O>)Makiri[S]: You think he gets free flights with those miles?
[26.09.2024 21:12:29] A/)-Leviathan: The Crayterians aren't going to murder themselves!
[26.09.2024 21:12:36] O>)Makiri[S]: Damn right.
[26.09.2024 21:12:41] X-Wing:2: Reporting for duty!
[26.09.2024 21:13:05] A/)-Revenant: Hello, X-Wing!
[26.09.2024 21:13:22] Cherry.Blossom: Hello, Crayterian at the Coronado Hole. How are you.
[26.09.2024 21:13:31] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: Another pilot I quite like having around.
[26.09.2024 21:13:33] O>)Makiri[S]: At the Coronado hole, now?
[26.09.2024 21:13:38] Cherry.Blossom: Snubcraft.
[26.09.2024 21:13:49] O>)Makiri[S]: Christ's sake.
[26.09.2024 21:13:54] Cherry.Blossom: It's lurking.
[26.09.2024 21:14:07] O>)Makiri[S]: Well if it lurks around here it's going to be in for a bad ending.
Proceeded to Freeport 14 to check things out, was nice to see Zoners.. including our 'friend' Green Spear.. he's surprisingly amicable when Auxesians are in proximity. We also made contact with someone you share a callsign with, Hanamura - name's Siara, part of the 'New Dawn Movement'. OSINT checks bring back this archived neural net page. Given what I heard over drinks with Setsuna with the Kongsi the night before this mess kicked off, I don't know if we should bother with these anarchist hardliners. Statists we may be, we're not wanting to gun for them, you and her told me that much, but there's probably too much distrust there. But that's not my call. Do what you and Kobayashi do best.
[26.09.2024 22:34:15] ND)-Lilith: How's it looking out here?
[26.09.2024 22:34:27] Stellarum: At this point I should probably be surprised that people even recognize the term 'Inner Circle'.
[26.09.2024 22:34:31] O>)Makiri[S]: You know, you have the same callsign as my boss.
[26.09.2024 22:34:35] ND)-Lilith: Me?
[26.09.2024 22:34:39] O>)Makiri[S]: Yeah.
[26.09.2024 22:34:42] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: There's still particles of agent, so fantastic.
[26.09.2024 22:34:43] ND)-Lilith: Funny, that.
[26.09.2024 22:34:48] ND)-Lilith: Who's your boss?
[26.09.2024 22:34:56] Green.Spear: You'd be surprised.
[26.09.2024 22:35:03] O>)Makiri[S]: Commander Nodoka Hanamura. The "Exuberant Lillith".
[26.09.2024 22:35:07] Green.Spear: But I know a few things about the Lane Hackers.
[26.09.2024 22:35:08] ND)-Lilith: Huh.
[26.09.2024 22:35:12] O>)Makiri[S]: She leads Battlegroup Ouroboros.
[26.09.2024 22:35:19] ND)-Lilith: Well, I'm Siara. I ain't from Battlegroup Ouroboros.
[26.09.2024 22:35:25] Sundancer: Uh. That rings a bel-
[26.09.2024 22:35:28] ND)-Lilith: I'm with the New Dawn Movement.
[26.09.2024 22:35:40] O>)Makiri[S]: Yeah, I can tell from the IFF subcode - pleasure to meet you.
[26.09.2024 22:35:45] ND)-Lilith: Likewise.
[26.09.2024 22:35:46] IMG|Wilhem-Stauss: The New Dawn?
[26.09.2024 22:35:49] ND)-Lilith: Yep.
[26.09.2024 22:35:58] Sundancer: Huh.
[26.09.2024 22:36:01] A/)-ACV-Titania: V: That's something of interest.
[26.09.2024 22:36:01] O>)Makiri[S]: Major Brett Kensington, Battlegroup Ouroboros - Sanzu DEVGRU.
[26.09.2024 22:36:02] ND)-Lilith: Not to be confused with, uh.

[26.09.2024 22:38:34] IMG|Wilhem-Stauss: Well I for one am glad to see you guys alive.
[26.09.2024 22:40:55] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: And my curiosity simply got the better of me.
[26.09.2024 22:40:57] IMG|Wilhem-Stauss: Voidstag what would that be?
[26.09.2024 22:41:03] ND)-Lilith: Our Bustard.

[26.09.2024 22:42:23] Green.Spear: Yeah, and a lot of them aren't good visits.

[26.09.2024 22:43:02] ND)-Lilith: Hell yeah.
[26.09.2024 22:44:13] ND)-Lilith: We used to get supplies out of Singapore all the time.
[26.09.2024 22:45:10] ND)-Lilith: Voidstag could prolly use a bit of maintenance anyway, we've mostly been doing repairs out in the field.
[26.09.2024 22:45:34] O>)Makiri[S]: We can feel that.
[26.09.2024 22:45:45] IMG|Wilhem-Stauss: Good stuff.
[26.09.2024 22:45:46] O>)Makiri[S]: Our forces have been in deep space for 8 years. Barely hanging on by a thread.
[26.09.2024 22:45:52] ND)-Lilith: Jesus.
[26.09.2024 22:46:02] ND)-Lilith: How have you kept your ships in one piece?
[26.09.2024 22:46:23] O>)Makiri[S]: Onboard nanobot Damage Control systems.. our miracle workers in Hakugyokurou..
[26.09.2024 22:46:46] ND)-Lilith: Sheesh.
[26.09.2024 22:46:53] O>)Makiri[S]: I barely believe it ourselves, though we did have to start towing our gunboats once they expended their onboard MOX supply.
[26.09.2024 22:46:56] ND)-Lilith: I'm just glad y'all made it through.
[26.09.2024 22:47:02] O>)Makiri[S]: Likewise.
[26.09.2024 22:47:27] IMG|Wilhem-Stauss: Heard about your battlegroup. Qute brave of you.
[26.09.2024 22:47:28] Green.Spear: You said you're from "Battlegroup Ouroboros" earlier?
[26.09.2024 22:47:32] O>)Makiri[S]: Yes.
[26.09.2024 22:47:38] Green.Spear: Never heard of it.
[26.09.2024 22:47:44] Green.Spear: What's the summary?
[26.09.2024 22:48:01] O>)Makiri[S]: We're the successor organization of the Kusari-based Ouroboros Revolutionary Front.
[26.09.2024 22:48:12] Green.Spear: That rings even less bells.
[26.09.2024 22:48:13] O>)Makiri[S]: Pro-democratic, Social Democratic movement.
[26.09.2024 22:48:20] O>)Makiri[S]: Again, been eight years.
[26.09.2024 22:48:31] Green.Spear: Dragons?
[26.09.2024 22:48:36] O>)Makiri[S]: Nah.
[26.09.2024 22:48:40] ND)-Lilith: Sounds like a group we can get behind.
[26.09.2024 22:48:43] O>)Makiri[S]: Those guys are Imperials these days.
[26.09.2024 22:48:51] O>)Makiri[S]: Kusari these days are -
[26.09.2024 22:49:01] Green.Spear: So... the GC?
[26.09.2024 22:49:02] O>)Makiri[S]: Imperials - Imperial Lite, and Imperials with vaginas.
[26.09.2024 22:49:05] Green.Spear: Or an autonomous group?
[26.09.2024 22:49:21] O>)Makiri[S]: Autonomous group.
[26.09.2024 22:49:30] O>)Makiri[S]: The GC is mostly the Gen'an's show.
[26.09.2024 22:49:30] Green.Spear: Funny, I had a chat about that with a kusari woman a few hours ago.
[26.09.2024 22:49:40] O>)Makiri[S]: And they've gone over the deep end.
[26.09.2024 22:49:54] ND)-Lilith: Mmm.
[26.09.2024 22:49:58] IMG|Wilhem-Stauss: They aren't the GC how would they have a dude as a Major?
[26.09.2024 22:49:59] ND)-Lilith: Too bad about the GC.
[26.09.2024 22:50:13] ND)-Lilith: Used to admire them a lot when I was growing up.
[26.09.2024 22:50:23] O>)Makiri[S]: They want to castrate the male population and install a female empress.
[26.09.2024 22:50:29] O>)Makiri[S]: We're not GC.
[26.09.2024 22:50:38] O>)Makiri[S]: We never were.
[26.09.2024 22:50:51] ND)-Lilith: Yeah, but they've got some good voices in the movement. Or they used to, anyway.
[26.09.2024 22:51:01] Green.Spear: I bet you've read Matsuda, Lilith.
[26.09.2024 22:51:03] O>)Makiri[S]: Yeah, sadly it's all washed out by the Gen'an.
[26.09.2024 22:51:17] IMG|Wilhem-Stauss: They got too close with the maskers if you ask me.
[26.09.2024 22:51:21] ND)-Lilith: Yeah, Matsuda was what I read.
[26.09.2024 22:51:28] O>)Makiri[S]: My XO is ex-GC, though.
[26.09.2024 22:51:47] O>)Makiri[S]: Smart girl, used to be an artist before she joined up with them and.. decided that wasn't a wise decision.
[26.09.2024 22:52:08] ND)-Lilith: Look, I ain't gonna support what the Gen'an are doing. Getting real deep into the cardamine was the wrong choice.
[26.09.2024 22:52:49] O>)Makiri[S]: I can tell you right now, we'd be siding with the GC were it not for the Carda, and for the Gen'an.
[26.09.2024 22:54:16] ND)-Lilith: Yeah, agreed.
Finally, we had one engagement that ended in our disfavor thanks to an LSF spook's buddies ganging up on me when I was pressing one whilst he was fighting the Nomads. I know, I know - I shouldn't give them an in on any funny ideas with the Nomads, but I made it perfectly clear to the bastard that I didn't care if there were nomads, I was gonna crack his head wide open. Turns out it ended up being the inverse. So much for sportsmanship from the spooks.
I'll link up with Song at the Skidbladnir and escort her to Invergordon once she's on station tommorow. Can't wait to be back in my quarters.
Makiri, out.

Putting through an update. Yardmaster's aide says we'll be good to go at or around 1400 Hours today. Course will be laid in and we'll be on station later that hour.
I've been waiting eight long years to kick Golanski's ass in one fashion or another. Being able to pop Spooks and Crayter goons is just icing on the homecoming cake. Me and my men are ready.

Wanted to personally give you my report for tonight, since I got called out. Sensitive information, I hope you understand.
Went into the West Avelmore to check on a situation, came to find that same LSF spook from the other day. I outed myself to him, but I've little fucks to give what SECFORCOM thinks of me all these years later. Engaged him and shot him down... In front of that Nomad. You know. That one.
Look I.. I've had a moment to think about this. Do we know *anything*, about pre-Sirian history leading up to the departure from Sirius? Anything at all? Because.. fuck, I can't believe we've been setting up shop for the past 800 and some odd years, on what amounts to an alien nursery. And if Kelly With, that HRO in Prometheus can trust it somewhat, then hell if I'm not inclined either.
I'm not going to mince words here, Nodoka - this shit's fucked. Like, in the history of mankind, this is fucked. Does Golanski know this? Do the Core know this? Fuck, I'm certain the Auxesians probably know it - Nodoka...
What the fuck do we do. I know, I know, I'm the best SOF agent you have in our ranks. But I was never trained for being skull-pounded by Nomads! At least not like this.
Akiha's somewhat aware as well. I have vaguely told her the punishment for what'll happen if she squeals. But we didn't get to talk about it, because we needed to whack some Crayterian Cruiser trying to get pictures of us making out, and she got shacked.
Ma'am.. I respectfully ask to be put on leave after this. Between the fighting, the nomads and doing Kobayashi's fucking job... I.. I really need time to breathe after all this.

I understand you're going through a lot right now. We're consulting with XRT and OSINT records on what we can get about the Nomads and this 'Light of the Abyss' collective of theirs. The initial shock of it aside, We need to stay focused on the mission. There might be an escalation of force over the weekend. You and Jae-un are going to need to work together to help the Auxesians out.
We can't afford failure here. I know dealing with that Nomad took a toll on you. But we need you now, and we need you ready.
You deserve a Hero's return. By terran standards, you'd be called an Ace. And you also deserve a hero's rest. But I can't afford that. At least for right now. This week, and the weeks ahead, will be pivotal in shaping our future. All I need from you. Is to stay on station until the Utsunomiya is docked with Singapore. The moment we're hooked up and ready for repairs, You'll have two weeks off. See the sights, visit the family you have that doesn't hate you, go play Billiards with With or Choomba or any of the other people you've met here or shoot the breeze with Akiha, help her warm up to men - heaven knows she will need it here.
All I ask, is that you come back after. We need you, Makiri.

Task Force Shirikunne is on station in Inverness, and we've got a report from an engagement with the LSF with.. mixed results.
We arrived on scene to a troops in contact situation involving LSF, Crayter and Auxesia. We engaged them and my idiot of an FCO, SSgt Shinji Kintoki, proceeded to both win us the fight, and almost frag one of the Auxesians by accident. I've decided to assume direct control to the FCS and dismiss him from fire control duties. He can go clean toilets and brush up on his gunnery. Any further punishment is up to you, Hanamura.
Other than that, we feel it's best to moor with Invergordon like the Sanzu guys are for now, instead of loitering in space. We'll be heading back out shortly to pick off any threats we find. Will report back with any findings.

OCS Skidbladnir took some nasty hits that forced us to withdraw from an engagement we were in - some of the LSF's finest poked in and hit us whilst we were taking on Battlegroup Tuscaloosa's snub complement. These Vandals work wonders on Snubcraft - though it should be noted we need to be conscientious about its' application, per the fuck-up earlier.
My Helmsman needs some brushing up on his maneuvering skills, but all in all, I think we've got a winner on our hands with this group.
We exchanged some heavy blows but otherwise we're getting patched up at Invergordon. Will report back if we deal with anything else.

[27.09.2024 22:09:24] O>)OCS_Skidbladnir: B: Wait your turn, 47th operator. You're next in line for an asskicking after Sakura's done with your friend.
[27.09.2024 22:10:09] 47th|Zeta-3: Bold words. Try to asskick me instead.
[27.09.2024 22:11:04] O>)OCS_Skidbladnir: B: Hey there, Promethean.
[27.09.2024 22:11:23] TFP)-Kelly.With!?: 'ello.
[27.09.2024 22:13:35] Oliver.Moos: Reporting for duty, Zeta-3
[27.09.2024 22:13:39] Oliver.Moos: We got company?
[27.09.2024 22:13:44] 47th|Zeta-3: Glad to have you here Oliver
[27.09.2024 22:13:58] 47th|Zeta-3: These technocrat raiders are surrounding us
[27.09.2024 22:14:09] A/)-Vengeance.: Raiders? This isn't liberty space.
[27.09.2024 22:14:24] 47th|Zeta-3: They also have got a militant zoner gunship with them
[27.09.2024 22:14:25] Oliver.Moos: Borders of Liberty never ends.
[27.09.2024 22:14:27] A/)-Vengeance.: Clearly your map is busted if you think this to be /yours/.
[27.09.2024 22:14:32] 47th|Zeta-3: Beware of their torpedoes
[27.09.2024 22:14:38] O>)OCS_Skidbladnir: B: Greaaat, we get to be called Zoners now too..
[27.09.2024 22:14:43] Oliver.Moos: Copy that, taccom
[27.09.2024 22:15:11] O>)OCS_Skidbladnir: B: Lovely. What's next, we going to be called Outcasts? Any more funny ideas?
[27.09.2024 22:15:20] Oliver.Moos: Well if you like to sniff
[27.09.2024 22:15:30] 47th|Zeta-3: Militants are Zoner pilots who have taken up arms to protect other Zoners from the enroaching influence of foreign militaries
[27.09.2024 22:15:36] X-Wing:3: Reporting for duty! Enforcing Valravn Soverenity!
[27.09.2024 22:16:10] O>)OCS_Skidbladnir: B: Yeah, we're not Zoners. Only going to say it once since you people like to label things what they're not.
[27.09.2024 22:16:11] A/)-Vengeance.: Such as yours.
[27.09.2024 22:16:25] O>)OCS_Skidbladnir: But we will take up arms to kick your asses back to Alaska.
[27.09.2024 22:16:35] 47th|Zeta-3: Who are you then pilot? Idenfity yourself
[27.09.2024 22:17:02] O>)OCS_Skidbladnir: B: Major Jae-un Song, Battlegroup Ouroboros, CO of Kotetsu Fighter Brigade.
[27.09.2024 22:17:33] O>)OCS_Skidbladnir: B: Temporarily - CO of OCS Skidbladnir, lead ship of Task Force Shirikunne.
[27.09.2024 22:17:50] O>)OCS_Skidbladnir: B: And if you don't fuck off where you came from, I'm going to be the one shoving Vandals where the sun don't shine.
[27.09.2024 22:17:53] X-Wing:3: Returning to dock. As per commanded.
[27.09.2024 22:17:55] 47th|Zeta-3: Hmm, never heard of such battlegroup
[27.09.2024 22:18:15] 47th|Zeta-3: Come and get it, scum
[27.09.2024 22:18:42] O>)OCS_Skidbladnir: B: No, no - you come to me. You're the invaders, remember?
[27.09.2024 22:18:53] O>)OCS_Skidbladnir: B: Or did they not teach you that in class?
[27.09.2024 22:18:57] Oliver.Moos: We are just peacekeepers.
[27.09.2024 22:19:01] 47th|Zeta-3: We are always ready to kill for the Liberty
[27.09.2024 22:19:16] 47th|Zeta-3: Let's get 'em boys!
[27.09.2024 22:19:19] O>)OCS_Skidbladnir: B: Riiiight. And I'm just picking daisies in the Technocracy's back yard.
[27.09.2024 22:19:24] Oliver.Moos: Roger that, boss!
[27.09.2024 22:19:25] O>)OCS_Skidbladnir: B: Weapons up!

[27.09.2024 22:19:36] O>)OCS_Skidbladnir: B: Auxesians, a little help would be great.
[27.09.2024 22:19:59] A/)-Vertigo: Guess we'd better save their skins.
[27.09.2024 22:20:03] A/)-Vengeance.: Oh I suppose.

[27.09.2024 22:20:20] A/)-Sakura: Safety off. Weapons powered and ready.

SENDER: Major Brett Kensington "Makiri", Battlegroup Ouroboros RECIPIENT: LILITH SUBJECT: Notice of Transfer
Ma'am,
I know this isn't exactly what you want to hear right now but Jae-un's off her meds and her bridge crew just mutinied to knock her out. Something about Nomads humping the Crayeterians and Mieko being a Blue Waffle. I don't get it either, and I wish I had a manual for her so I knew how to unfuck her.
She's holed up in the containment cells aboard Skidbladnir until she stabilizes. Until then I'm taking back authority over the Skidbladnir, which might be for the rest of the deployment. Talking to my Intel Officer who was under her command, It looks to me like either being wired up like she was did her in or our 'Light'-bearing friends did a number on her head.
Either or, I advise she undergo a psych eval when we get back.
