<Snipped quote by Memory>

*Fingers still crackling with intense red lightning sparks after the power unleashed* Well yeah... reality alteration... creatio ex nihilo... I quite frankly don't like using this power too much though y'know? Feels like cheating life... i enjoy the process surprisingly, but after life cheated us from our valuable pasts, i thought it'd be fair, but that's why i made a shipyard, so we build them manually in the future.

<Snipped quote by Session>

The person running the show in the hospital is just one of their senior doctors, unfortunately. Bless their soul, they're making due with what they have, and that includes leadership.
*Many members of the ship staff stop and salute as we walk past, though I keep my attention on our discussion*
Once you leave the safe zone, I can point you in the direction of our guys. They're nearby, and have been affected for less time than the actual population of course.

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

You have the mechanics memorized too?

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Ummm... expanded consciousness? You just used it! Gives us access to the deepest recesses of our minds and even the long forgotten memories?

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

I'm just checking.

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Yeah... So aren't you going to leave some copies behind with mine to help continuing on the fortifications of our base and brainstorming future plans while we are off into space?

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

I have the feeling that I need to be whole right now. Whatever happened to my memories concerns me a lot, and I don't want it to get worse.

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

That would be perfect. I'll take a look at the stages of progression.
*Laughs after the salute*
Is that in honor of your rank or in honor of the dead doctor walking?

<Snipped quote by Memory>

And what if we accidentally fall into a black hole or we encounter a space titan that is beyond even our powers to defeat? No backup plans? Do you want to just die and that's it? For all we know this world might not even have an afterlife...

<Snipped quote by Session>

My rank. You’ll find we’re not quite so defeatist, doctor.

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

I'll teleport back here. We have plenty of escape mechanisms.

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Dude we might be ascended beings, but as we both know VERY well, there are things out there that are far bigger and more potent and dangerous than even us can handle...

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Storing duplicates on this planet isn't going to help. Unless you want to plant more copies in other universes first...

<Snipped quote by Memory>

You.... You already have copies in other realms. But they don't possess your memories thus far, nor your experiences and accumulated wisdom you gained ever since you came my way... don't risk it man! Yeah, storing copies is a good idea, trust me, i'm a military man, i know what i'm talking about!

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

*Grins in satisfaction*
In this practice, a few doses of dark humor is the norm. It's good for the soul.

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Again, I think we should keep copies off-world. What if this entire dimension gets taken over by one of your friends?

<Snipped quote by Memory>

... *Takes a moment to think* ... Hey THOSE things are NOT my friends pal! It's like you have a death wish or something... your copies are a life link not just mere drones, they have your skills your memories your wisdom, your training! What good is it if you die here and that's that? when another Prism and Ben can easily escape if we get in THAT much danger?

<Snipped quote by Session>

So long as it doesn’t sway you.
*We approach a door where a couple of soldiers in full mechanical armor who stand several feet taller than the average man stand posted, and they step out of the way with a loud thud each and they also salute as we enter into a room not quite as grand as the bridge. Inside rests a console, a few workers, a small assortment of other machinery and terminals and a round, silver pad on the floor*

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

*Glances at the disk*
I'm guessing that's my one-way ticket in?

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Because I'm making a point. We need to have copies on other dimensions, or our efforts don't really matter.
