[So, this is something he's been wondering - and eventually, seriously considering - for the last couple of months, mostly when they landed on Arslae and he realized how ill-equipped he is to deal with conflict. For most people, it would simply be a matter of avoiding fights. But for him... well. It's kind of all he's ever been good for.

Getting told that, hey, one of your crewmates is a murderer is more or less the last straw to break through his indecisive camel back.]


I have a question, mostly for whoever's gotten personal those personal augment upgrades you can buy, or at least thought about it. I'd really like to know- what's it like? Which did you choose? Why would you choose to get one- or why not? I mean, the people offering them up aren't exactly trustworthy, but they all sound pretty useful, too.

Basically, I'm trying to weigh the pros and cons. I'd appreciate the help.

I've seen some of the kids at my local university. You'd easily qualify.

[Though now that he thinks about it...] After the invasion happened, I had to take some classes in Jordan. It was tough at first, but you get used to the language.

Oh. No harm in trying, right?

I'd offer help, but I don't think we're even remotely from the same world. [Considering that virtual reality MMOs were a far-off dream, and well, also considering giant alien invasion.]

We had aliens try and take over the planet. [He winces, because it was both traumatic and as weird as it sounded.] They didn't succeed but it was - it's not something you forget.
stefanged: (i told you so)

[a resigned sigh] You seriously don't know the half of it.

I want to remember it all, so I've been writing it out in diary after diary... but I'm starting to think I'll fill a whole bookshelf before I'm done.
stefanged: (that is a fair point)

Maybe, but there's always the risk of Atroma reading it. Or you know, the whole Fleet since I'm still bad with encryption.
stefanged: (hang on a sec)

You can hack into things? [...] You should go for it.

Jennifer tried to record some stuff, back when we were on the Marsiva, but for some reason, the entries don't pop up.

[That's his real fear, since his diaries are the only detailed recollections he has. If Atroma can re-write (or erase) his entries, then he can't trust his communicator.]
stefanged: (oh really now?)

A couple of times. She's still gotten nothing, and what worries me is that she wrote about some weird stuff that even I don't remember.

If it weren't for my diaries, I wouldn't have known that it even happened.
stefanged: (gentle glance)

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-04-08 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
That'd be nice. I don't mind typing everything up, but I don't want Atroma erasing anything I've written either.
stefanged: (sure about that?)

Really? [...] Thanks. I'll keep an eye out for parts, but I can't promise much help there.

I can uh, repay you with extra lessons or something. I've lived long enough. I'm sure I could figure something out.

Maybe, but I wasn't exactly asking for payment.

[It kept him busy too! Otherwise he would've been holed up in that med bay the entire time.]
stefanged: (thinking about it)

action

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-04-12 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
Fair enough. [He laughs because well, you've got him there.] But seriously, thank you.

At the rate I was going, I could've started my own library.
stefanged: (kinda confident)

action

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-05-08 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Now there's an idea. [Stefan laughs.] Maybe if the library ever gets too desperate for donations.
