That so? Man, I'd hate to be you.

@Session

Existence is big. Always a crisis somewhere. Admittedly, they're not usually this dire.

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

So what's next for you?

@Session

We move on to deal with the next world ending tragedy. It sucks every time, but the world moves on.

Other than positive affirmations and a letter of recommendation? I can't say I'm lacking in much at the moment, Grand Captain Miss.

@Session

You've got whatever positivity I have to spare, but I'm drawing from silver linings today. Not a lot to spare.

On a planet like this? Three months. Almost on the dot.

@Session

That’s a lot of time to be-
*My eyes fall down and to the side for a moment*
Nevermind. Is there anything you need?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

I'm stunned by all the goodwill. But I'll take it—after all, a dying planet beats prison by a mile.

@Session

How long are you stuck for?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

I do; it's the truth. But how well or poorly he ruled didn't really matter; that's not my call.

@Session

Right. A guy who stood by his morals, especially when they look like that, looks good. If anyone tries to play semantics with your deal, I don’t see why we wouldn’t try to help you wriggle free of them.

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

Yeah, people who abuse themselves or others and expect someone else to clean up after their mess. I don't treat people who haven't made a good faith effort to get well.

@Session

I wanted to make sure I understood you were implying he wasn’t so benevolent to others.
*Crosses my arms and closes my eyes, in thought*
And you swear this is the truth? I don’t believe you have any reason to lie to me, but you tell me.

Close to it. Some sovereign called me to treat his son, who was hanging on death's door. Come to find out, his son was a glutton and only sick because of the choices he'd made the past twenty years that destroyed his health. Now, call me a quack doc, but I don't treat people with sick hearts. So I was thrown into jail until either he died first and they executed me or I gave up and fixed his body.

@Session

Sick hearts?

Alright, I see this angle...
*Stands with a grunt*
My name is Lynn. I'm a nature spirit with no family or surname. I use my race's aptitude for the energies and my medicinal studies to diagnose and treat disease. I have no physical nature, and so can't harm anyone or defend myself.

@Session

Call it a hunch, but were you locked up for those exact reasons? For people to abuse your capabilities since you can't fight back?

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

You talked to Colgate, right? He busted me out of jail so I could help you guys. I think your responsibilities are to him, not me.

@Session

They are. But given how things have turned out, you may need someone to argue for your case to get your end of the deal. You technically helped relieve the world, even if it inly lasted a moment. But it might not be seen that way. I want to know who we might be arguing for, and I don’t mean in name alone.
