What are you doing?
Carrying out the prime directive.
*Mechanical arms laced with runes explode from the walls and lock onto your limbs*

*Stands up*
What are you doing?
<Snipped quote by Memory>
*nods*
For the most part, yes. Even the bandits and pirates as long as they are cooperative and follow our rules.
<Snipped quote by Memory>
Commander Greyson: Yup... and we contained it appropriately, and every time we need help, it seems to have an almost symbiotical relationship with Soldier Boy here, so he can make it shrink if it grows too big, and he's literally essentially another scientist in the lab due to how this thing allows him to interact with it.
*He pats me on the back proudly*
Soldier Boy: Yeah, anyway about the mission...?
*I evidently awkarded out from the subject redirect the topic to the matter at hand*
Soldier Boy: So where are we landing, what are we expecting?
Commander Greyson: Right... yeah... We're going to approach the jungle domes of Phobos, and from there we will scout out....
*He goes on describing the plans, of which mostly talk about how we approach the base of operations of these pirates, and how we will land undetected*
Commander Greyson: So are you all ready?

Carrying out the prime directive.
*Mechanical arms laced with runes explode from the walls and lock onto your limbs*

*Looks to each side, clenches my fists and furrows my brows*
It’s not like you to make your prime directive a mistake.
<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>
If you're attacked often, does that mean you have your own military?
<Snipped quote by Memory>
We do, and they are not to be trifled with. As we have an oath to aid those injured and keep them alive, theirs is to protect the injured eliminate threats.
*smiles*
They are more than incentivized to do their jobs with maximum dedication and efficiency. We’ve had multiple agents of the surrounding governments become fully fledged members of the clinic. Essentially turning against their factions.
<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>
Does that make you your own country?
<Snipped quote by Memory>
Yes, essentially.
<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>
Oh wow. Sounds dangerous.
<Snipped quote by Memory>
It was integral for the clinic to become what it is now.
<Snipped quote by Valiance>
Your own knowledge is at fault.
*Places my hand on your chest, spreading the same pattern of magical circuitry to your body*
<Snipped quote by Shadrack Nor>
I think so. Do you have a good vantage point for me to observe?
<Snipped quote by Webmaster>
Your insatiable curiosity is the most egregious crime.
*My fists open to reveal an orb of radiant power emanating in each hand, on a modest gray and the other a vibrant green. The color on my body dims and the magical corruption slows to a crawl while the air in the room shifts to a deep green tint. Everything around rapidly corrodes away except for my person, as though exposed to an unrealistically acidic gas*
<Snipped quote by Memory>
Commander Greyson: Sure thing, If we look here...
*He scrolls and highlights a section of the map in his holo-projection, there is this bunker-ish section outside the main jungle dome*
Commander Greyson: If we teleport you here you should be quite good, but you'll need to find ways to follow us with your guardian angel, because it won't be a place where you could see all the action, and thus far we think it may be lacking guards but we ain't sure, so we will give you both some armour, take it or leave it at your own risks...
Soldier Boy: Yeah, and make sure you are ready for sudden attacks, i may and underlining MAY, be able to turn you invisible using the Tesseract, but it is not guaranteed it can last endlessly... depending on the range of influence... also watch out for those mutants... they be something else...
<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>
Do you treat the people your military go after?
<Snipped quote by Memory>
They are more of a defense force, but yes. We have made stations within the clinic designed for the respective factions. They don’t get any special treatment more than even the ice haulers. We just separate them to keep it within a neutral environment as possible.
<Snipped quote by Valiance>
You won't leave this room.
*The melting walls reveal dazzling arrays of dense interconnecting physical and magical components, several of which glow brightly and connect via thin streamers to those on your chest, shearing space across their respective planes*
<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>
Almost an impossible task, I bet.
<Snipped quote by Memory>
It’s tiring to say the least.
