| The Bridge as one would suspect is at the stern of the ship, it is made up of several floors that include everything from the Admiral's quarters to a Conference Chamber. More specifically, this thread is the Conference Chamber. A Large semi-circular table, with the Admiral at its head and the rest of the 'guests' seated or standing along the walls. |
 |
| A vent near the floor of the Bridge open and Lucille crawls out of it, dusting herself off as she stands. With a smirk, she leans against a nearby wall and awaits the others. |
 |
| Jasper filed into the room and saw that the Admiral was already there and had his back to him... staring out into space. Jasper stood at attention and saluted saying "Sir, Commander Lovecraft and company awaiting orders" Jasper heard a soft laugh from the old seasoned warrior and said "Calm down kid, I'm may have more brass than you... but that doesn't mean you have to kiss my ass" Jasper relaxed a little but at the same time he was confused, he heard rumors that the Admiral was a little 'different'... but he didn't realize the Admiral was so... cool? |
|
| Heia steps into the room, bowing her hand to the old man. Her heart winds about her chest, right palm on left shoulder. She then formally salutes before easing into a casual stance. "Lieutenant Heia Amsel, reporting for duty." Without waiting for further recon, she seats herself at the table. Her legs felt like they would give in. Cramps...damn it. |
 |
| As Caithe enters the room, she stand at attention and salutes sharply at the sight of the Admiral before taking a place against the wall to hear the debriefing. |
 |
| As soon as she entered the room, her way of walking was more proper. Looking more like a soldier and less barbarian-looking. Celestia saluted to the admiral from afar by forming a fist with both of her hands, one fist behind her back and one pressed against the left side of her chest. To her, the seats seemed to be like they're for the officers of higher rankings than her, so she went and stood by the wall and crossed her arms. |
"Hateful feelings. Hurtful feelings. Unforgivable feelings. To face one's own feelings is akin to throwing oneself into a bottomless pit, or setting sail on an endless sea. You must not look there. You must not think about it. Though you search your soul on the dark, heaving waves, you must never look in that place." - Kusuriuri |
| Egoist step into the room and found to her surprise that she wasn't the first nor even the third bu the biggest was that most of them seem to be the rank of Warrant Officer excerpt for what must be the Admiral. Saluting him "Warrant Officer Egoist Kagerou on duty sir". |
 |
| Gunn walks confidently into the room and finds himself a place along the wall but also in a spot where he could see and hear everything. Q piped up with" do you want me to record this for the future reference?". Thinking as to not make a sound from his lips he states yes. Gunn was standing legs shoulder-width apart with his arms behind his back, as was his custom until he was to stand at attention. |
 |
| As the last of the Commanders, Lieutenants, and Officers entered the room. Admiral Tzu relaxed and said "Good morning, I trust you all had a... terrible sleep". The Admiral shivered and said "I always hated those ice-beds, they always gave me nightmares and they burned me in the ass... in fact my old unit way back in the day had a nickname for them: The Ex-Wife" Admiral Tzu laughed for a moment, clearly this Admiral as very down to Earth and honest with his men. It was quite the change of pace for Jasper who smiled at the statement, every brass he had to deal with had a stick up their ass. "Unfortunately, the mission or rather missions I'm about to assign you all on will possibly be far more dangerous than any Ex-Wife" said Admiral Tzu. He turned towards the table where a large Hologram appeared in the middle being projected lenses on the ceiling and on the table to create what appeared to be a large gaseous planet with a series of meteor-like moons. Admiral Tzu now sounding professional for the first time said "The Mission consists of two team to investigate two anomalies of this rather small and seemingly unimportant planet that we of the Primo Victoria have dubbed 'Eurus'. The first team is to investigate the planet itself, upon first inspection one would guess the planet to be made of nothing but gases such as Helium, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, and Neon... we couldn't be more wrong. Less than 48 hours ago we launched a probe in it to gather data and then to return back to the ship, we lost contact with probe and all of its data when it crashed into something solid on the planet. We estimate that the atmosphere of this planet is over 900 miles thick, 3 times the thickness of Earth's and almost every other home-system of colony in the Alliance" The AI known as Victoria spoke up "More or less, the Mission is to land on the planet via Drop-Pod (as it is too dangerous for a Drop-Ship to make two trips), find out what our probe knows, and return to the Primo Victoria with its data via Drop-Ship" The Admiral nodded and said "The second team however has quite a different mission, on one of the half-formed meteor moons we discovered... anomaly with our initial scans looking for ships or any other form of intelligent life. On the surface of one of the moons we discovered what we believe to be an old, derelict base of some race outside of the Alliance. It is unclear whether or not this was a mining facility for ore, a research platform, or some sort of military outpost" Victoria AI said "Essentially the mission is advanced recon via Drop-Ship, collect as much data as you can on the base, and leave via Drop-Ship" Admiral Tzu then said "The leader of one of the first mission is Commander Lovecraft, the leader of the second mission is..." //Admins? Who wants to lead? Mori? Angelic? Herch?// |
|
| Heia exhaled sharply, almost as if in relief, when she wasn't assigned as a team leader. She didn't want to shoulder the life of others; she just wasn't fit for the role. As antisocial as they come, she might just lack the needed charisma. "I'm having difficulty with one of the soldiers." Engel promptly informed. "Oh?" "The Chlorokin seems to have set protection traps around her data...rudimentary, but efficient. I'm worried about it being a Trojan trap. What should I do?" "Track back to the source of the hack. My guess is that the girl is using her AI unit, since I don't see her hacking anything at the moment..." the Aerie commented, glancing sideways at the overdressed plant person. She smirked lightly. "Firstly, ruin these dummies one way or the other - resort to a rather harmless virus if needed. And secondly, load my identity for the AI's eyes. It's only fair to know eachother." |
|
| "... will be LTC Yamato Arisato, but will be guided by W/O Isolde Karlson due to her " familiarity with foreign tech" said Admiral Tzu. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meanwhile during the lecture, Nurse was communicating with Jasper mentally informing him of some of his subordinates were researching him. He silently communicated with her saying along the lines of just letting it happen... but hiding as much as she could regarding how extensive his Mods were on his body and how dangerous and unstable a Human he really was. |
|
| Iesel tiptoed quietly and peeked from the entrance of the door, trying her best not to make herself seen. "Oh... what do I do...?" "What's wrong Iesel? I detect anxiety on your emotional stream" A mechanized male AI voice replied while at the same time lights on the disk shaped object attached to her back lit up to indicate he was talking. "I-If I walk through the back there... then A-Admiral Tzu is going to call me out, I just know it. I-It's not my fault I'm late, the doctors took so long for my last checkup" Iesel began to get a little frantic at the mere thought of explaining herself before the entire squadron group. It had been such a long time that she spoke in front of this many people at the mere thought of it wanted to make her faint. "Whoa calm down there sweetie. You'll make an even bigger fuss if you faint right now" "I-I kn-know Neil" Iesel replied as she peeked from the entrance again, "B-But what should I do?" "Well, let's see. I suggest that you crawl to avoid being seen towards that empty seat over there. And then sit and pretend that you've been there since the beginning. Will you be okay on your knees?" Her ever guardian like AI asked. "O-of course I'll be fine on my knees!" She exclaimed with a whisper in reply. Crouching down as best she could, she waited until Admiral Tzu was slightly turned away to make her move. Slowly bit by bit, she crawled her way towards the empty seat nearby, hoping not to get seen by anyone. |
| Even Death has a heart It's okay to spin around and around in the same place. Just so long as you're singing your heart out. THAT's what life's all about. |
| "Celestia! Celestia!" A voice in her head called her, or more precisely, from her ears. Not all of the piercings and earings on her ears were for show, one piece on each of her ears were actually her way to comunictae with Hans. Well, it's not like that the others are completely for camouflaging or anything, Celestia really did like her style after all. Celestia didn't answer, but it was clear on face that she was all 'What?!' and annoyed. What the hell was so important that it had to be said now of all times? "Celestia! Someone is trying to hack your personal files and data! Appearntly it's someone here in the room but I can't pinpoint who" 'So?' Was writtien all over her face. She rolled her eyes and cut off the communications with Hans, leaving him hanged up. "I don't give a fuck..." she thought and sighed. Right now, Celestia was either an airhead or overconfident for not minding that her information are being hacked through at all. Her sulking was soon turned into a quiet chuckle as she noticed someone crawling on the floor. "Turtle...?" that was her reaction and comment on the scene. Celestia was kind enough to return her attention to the admiral and keep silent about this. |
"Hateful feelings. Hurtful feelings. Unforgivable feelings. To face one's own feelings is akin to throwing oneself into a bottomless pit, or setting sail on an endless sea. You must not look there. You must not think about it. Though you search your soul on the dark, heaving waves, you must never look in that place." - Kusuriuri |
| "Then what bout the rest of us Admiral?" Egoist ask him "We're going to just sit here on this ship and shoot the breeze?". |
|
| Heia's eyes slid to the girl crawling quietly (or, attempting to) towards a seat next to her right. Taking advantage of her seat being rather reserved in position, she stealthily turned around in her chair, stepping towards the girl. The Admiral had turned away, giving them his backside again; as such, Heia was in no danger of being seen as she offered the small girl a smile and a hand to help her up. |
|
| Iesel shut her eyes and cowered a bit for fear that the lady would do something to her, but when nothing came, she opened one eye to see that she was holding a hand out for her. Hastily gripping it, she whispered in reply, "T-thank you..." |
| Even Death has a heart It's okay to spin around and around in the same place. Just so long as you're singing your heart out. THAT's what life's all about. |
| Heia smiled in response, pulling her up. She guided the timid girl to a seat next to the one she had previously occupied, supporting Iesel as they walked for precaution; she looked so frail, the Aerie almost thought she'd break upon impact. It tugged at her heart. The reaction the girl had when she approached her reminded her painfully of dark days in her own youth. As she helped the girl get comfortable in a chair, Engel's voice boomed in her mind. "All information that you have requested has been successfully gathered. Should I store it away for later review?" "Yes, thank you. And if the need arises, inform me of whoever I'm teamed with - strictly bits that you judge would come in handy in combat." "Should I look this girl up, as well?" "...No. Something tells me it's better if I don't know. Should the need rise, I'll just use my psychometry." |
|
| Iesel sighed with relief that she made it to a seat without everyone else catching whim of her. To be honest, she so relieved that she took this time to glance around at the other members of the recently awakened squad. Races that were all unfamiliar wither her physically, but were far too vivid in her mind. As Iesel took this opportunity to rapidly catch up, Neil took this opportunity to communicate with the other AI's. It occurred to him that most of the other AI's were shut off or no network channels were open. Fortunately for him, the AI of woman that helped Iesel had a private channel. It was a simple procedure for him to gain access, and as he got in, he spoke. Excuse me madam, but could I be one to ask what your plans with that information might be? I trust they not be malicious" |
| Even Death has a heart It's okay to spin around and around in the same place. Just so long as you're singing your heart out. THAT's what life's all about. |
| Heia blinked in mild surprise as a foreign AI entered her private communication with her AI with such...ease. Engel had to say he was impressed. The Aerie mentally cleared her throat. "I am a person curious by nature. As a LTC I've often found myself in charge of other people - their lives and the mission at hand rested on my shoulders. Knowledge is power; knowing with who I work and what are their abilities and limits help me devise plans that ensure the survival of the personnel and success of the mission, regardless of the difficulty. As such, I have developed the habit to store information of my current teams...the crew that composes Primo Victoria's soldiers is no exception." she explains, voice monotone and soft. "This is our new family. No one likes it when you know everything about them, but there shouldn't be room for secrets in a family. Or so Ms. Amsel and I like to think. We wouldn't know." |
|
| "K, it would seem as though they have broken through our rudimentary defenses," Glyph said. "Well, I'm not surprised," Caithe muttered. "Have you managed to back-trace the source?" "Not quite yet." "Keep on trying then, either we find out now or whoever's doing it will probably tell us later." "You have an idea of who's doing it?" "Yes. I have a hinting suspicion but no hard evidence... Just keep doing what you're doing." |
|
| I see... So you consider your new teammates family, and you believe that it is your duty to watch over them like kin. Neil chuckled slightly. You humanoids never cease to amaze me. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Neil, and the shy girl you helped out is Iesel Kelsin. Don't be fooled by her fragile body, her intelligence far exceeds anyone that I have ever seen. To give an AI a reason to function, a mind of its own. It's quite incredible if you ask me. She's like a daughter to me, and I hope that you take care of her as well as I do." With that last statement, Neil disconnected from the comm. |

| "Any questions? No? Good report to your stations! Lovecraft's men should head for the Virgo Bay... and the rest shall head for the Libra Bay" said The Admiral //EXIT for Lovecraft and company// |
|
| Heia smiled bemusedly. She's heard of others who made AI with their own hands - she probably could have done it herself, if she wasn't gifted Engel whom was just right for her. As she got up to leave with the others in her unit, she gave Iesel a smile, using her Telepathy to get the message across to the girl's AI. "Yeah. I will." //exit~// |
|
| "Well, time to get my lazy ass moving!" Celestia went ahead for her destination, the Libra Bay as it was decided. But on her way to the exit, she turned back to see who were still behind. "And my teammates are....No idea! I don't even know how this Yamato Arisato guy AKA my leader looks like" She quietly mumbled and nervously laughed. "I guess I should get going and see for myself..." //EXIT// |
"Hateful feelings. Hurtful feelings. Unforgivable feelings. To face one's own feelings is akin to throwing oneself into a bottomless pit, or setting sail on an endless sea. You must not look there.

| Caithe wordlessly moved out along with the others at the end of the debriefing. //EXIT// |
|
| Accounting for everything that the Admiral had said written down rather sloppily by her thin fingers on her hologram pad, Iesel herself exited with everyone else. Making sure that didn't bump into other people, she sighed out of great relief that no one made a huge deal of her tardy. //EXIT// |
| Even Death has a heart It's okay to spin around and around in the same place. Just so long as you're singing your heart out. THAT's what life's all about. |
| "All right then" Egoist said "let get it done". //exit// |
