Current I'll tell you what's wrong with society. No one drinks blood from the skulls of their enemies anymore.

"Aaaaaand now all I want to do is hug you and tell you everything's going to be okay. How do you *do* this to people." He blinked again. "How did you *do* this to me? I'm a thief. A hardened criminal. I have outstanding warrants." To go with his outstanding ### he might add.

Ah hell.

He looked at Pent again. And added the information his Pokemon had just so kindly planted in his head. This wasn't the first time he'd been done and out. And there wasn't anyone put his Pokemon around to help him back up.

....That sounded familiar. If he hadn't found Sandiego....heck, even after that, it just him and his 'mon alot of the time.

.......

No. This was not going to happen. He wasn't going to see himself in some academi-

Too late.

"Well."

He hooked his hand around the professor in a perhaps-too familiar way. "Let's find you a pokemon center and a warm bed huh?" Silently, Jinx started forwards, more or less easing the professor along with him.

With Yore potentially being gone we could move you in there?


I thank you for the offer, truly. But I think that's a risky game, if he comes back.
Next time I ask not to be tagged, please respect that.

Thank you and good day.
...Aaaaaaand those "entropy" weapons have reignited my concerns. Again.

I'm...getting tired of dancing this dance. And I expect the other parties are too.

I'm just gonna wait for an RP with power levels more suited to my style. I've got a friend who might be hosting one on another site. I think I'll look that up.

And I'm not gonna do that thing where I keep posting after I left, so please don't tag me or anything-I'd appreciate it.
Hmmm. Thinking outloud, I orginally had the Neo-Sovs consisting of humans (modified to be "ideal" or near ideal humans-they're working on that pesky aging problem, consider it almost....a disease) and uber-augmented warrior types, originally slave-soldiers for the fuckers they overthrew. So modified the Neo-Sovs consider them a separate species.

Considering extending that now-because why would the ruthless fucks they overthrew stop at augmenting soldiers? I think it'd be an interesting dynamic-the Neo-Sovs are built around trying to preserve humanity as a reaction to the excesses that led to those augmented soldiers, and the other species if I extend-but they'd also need to take care of, involve, the results of said excesses-the augments they consider separate species.

Which could be interesting to explore.


Nifty sci-fi pic I found, for anyone who wants to pretty up their profiles/posts.

I've been hoarding them, so I figured it was time to release one or two into the wild.

What I'm saying is narratively the rest of the Union is irrelevant as the narrative will never see the rest of the Union in any way, shape, or form.

Well.

Eh. In light of the GM ruling, it'd be petty to keep insisting literally everything I'm uneasy about/not convinced of be changed. So.

I suppose I'll just drop it for now, in the interests of the RPG.
What's the point of RPing if the Union will just squash us later?
To have fun? To create political intrigue, smash ships together, etc. while the RP is alive? I dunno. vOv. If it's that big of a deal, see above.


Being honest, this really totally fails to address my concerns in that department.
The Terran Union uses a lot of nuclear power too, but they're in the processes of making practical antimatter reactors.

So Telsa tech and Bioreactors would be the points of difference there..

.....As I said:



Communists don't believe in electric bills.
Sovet power generation is a....mess of different technologies pulling in different directions. You've got nuclear power-not anywhere near the level of the Federation. Think Fallout.

Then you've got Tesla power, which at this point works mostly because someone neglected to tell the Soviets it wouldn't work.*

And then you have this lovely cocktail of unstable chemicals they use to power so-called "bioreactors".
