The Katakiuchi left Freeport 11 and headed out to do some missions. One of them lead us to Omicron Minor where we came upon some Order vessels conversing with an AI ship. Puzzling, I approached and listening in. Besides being oddly propositioned by an AI vessel (that was a first for me) nothing else out of the ordinary happened. We wound up escorting an Order vessel to Omicron Theta before docking at the Freeport there for the evening. We plan on returning to Omicron Delta before the day is out, but some of the crew hadn't been around Freeport 9 for a while and wanted to stop off to say hello to some people they hadn't seen in a bit. From what I hear, Zylar had a more eventful evening. Logs attached. Kasumi out. - Kasumi Ito Captain of the Katakiuchi Attachments (1) Omicron Minor Conversation and Trader Escort [15.06.2022 13:29:14] Order|Epsilon-5: Unidentified contact on scanners. [15.06.2022 13:29:20] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Hmm. Order just like Zylar said. [15.06.2022 13:29:36] Order|Epsilon-5: Ah, a Zoner. [15.06.2022 13:29:39] Order|Hi-3: Looks like a Zoner vessel. [15.06.2022 13:29:43] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Hi Order friends, Zylar said you might be around these parts. [15.06.2022 13:29:54] J4-Suncloud: {Code 44592, Zoners. Proceed neutrality} [15.06.2022 13:30:07] Order|Hi-3: Well, Omicron Minor was our homeworld once. [15.06.2022 13:30:09] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Just looking for some Nomad scum to murder. [15.06.2022 13:30:31] Order|Epsilon-5: I don't want to pick in your brain, Suncloud, because that seems needlessly cruel. If I give you something to do, I want you - [15.06.2022 13:30:34] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Ah. Yes...I heard about what happened here. Sorry if I'm...interrupting. [15.06.2022 13:30:36] Order|Epsilon-5: to do so out of your own free will. [15.06.2022 13:31:03] J4-Suncloud: ["Suncloud wants to greeting you, Zoner human"] [15.06.2022 13:31:28] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Hmm. AI are around more like I've seen in the reports. Greetings, Suncloud. [15.06.2022 13:32:01] Order|Hi-3: But contrary to most other AIs, this unit seems to be neutral. [15.06.2022 13:32:26] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Interesting. Adds some crediance to what Zylar has theorized that there appears to be some kind of schism. [15.06.2022 13:32:30] J4-Suncloud: ["Misunderstanding. I am friend of The Order"] [15.06.2022 13:32:48] Order|Epsilon-5: The advice is as follows. The Auxesian carrier in orbit of Gammu poses a problem to the stability of the AI networks on the - [15.06.2022 13:32:53] Order|Epsilon-5: planet's surface. [15.06.2022 13:32:56] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Not that I know anything about that. He just tells me some things and I just nod along acting like I understand. [15.06.2022 13:33:14] Order|Epsilon-5: If you want to help the AI's survive as a species, I would suggest working against Auxesian influence, and subverting the - [15.06.2022 13:33:20] Order|Epsilon-5: hostile drones into a more cooperative state. [15.06.2022 13:33:36] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: He's mentioned Auxo but we don't how much about them. I'm guessing Order knows more. [15.06.2022 13:33:36] J4-Suncloud: ["Suncloud likes human's voice from Zoner. Say few phrases, I want to record them"] [15.06.2022 13:34:00] Order|Epsilon-5: Wether you choose to do this, is up to you Suncloud. I don't want to rewire your brain for you to do something. [15.06.2022 13:34:05] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Well...thank you, Suncloud. [15.06.2022 13:34:16] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: I think. [15.06.2022 13:34:39] Order|Hi-3: Now that is unexpected. [15.06.2022 13:34:54] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: I'll...have to let Zylar know about that. [15.06.2022 13:35:02] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: ...don't know what else to say here. [15.06.2022 13:35:15] Order|Hi-3: You can start singing. *laughs* [15.06.2022 13:35:34] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: I don't want to scare it. [15.06.2022 13:35:42] J4-Suncloud: ["Suncloud likes songs. Another human done it before"] [15.06.2022 13:36:00] Order|Hi-3: See, I am sure that it can't be that bad. [15.06.2022 13:36:16] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: I...don't want to scare you, Suncloud. I'm not an artist. [15.06.2022 13:36:29] Order|Epsilon-5: [An audible eyebrow is raised] [15.06.2022 13:36:49] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: ...anyway. Zylar mentioned that if I ran into you he wanted me to let you know he'd be away for a bit. [15.06.2022 13:37:06] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Turns out our old Nephilim from ZDF was recovered in pieces. [15.06.2022 13:37:18] Order|Epsilon-5: In pieces? Damn. [15.06.2022 13:37:23] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: It's being...refurbished for something. [15.06.2022 13:37:40] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Aye. Rheinland apparently broke it into three pieces during their attack. [15.06.2022 13:37:43] Order|Hi-3: Mighty firepower one needs to destroy a Nephilim. [15.06.2022 13:37:47] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Fuc[color=defaultking[/color] houses. [15.06.2022 13:37:59] Order|Epsilon-5: Knowing Zylar, probably turning it into a floating cannon. [15.06.2022 13:38:07] J4-Suncloud: ["Suncloud needs a cover. I will find you later, The Order, Zoners"] [15.06.2022 13:38:12] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Excuse me, I'm still angry about it. [15.06.2022 13:38:21] Order|Epsilon-5: Very well, Suncloud. Be safe. [15.06.2022 13:38:24] Order|Hi-3: I hope he doesn't plan to glass a planet with it. [15.06.2022 13:38:24] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Farewell Suncloud, thank you for the...flattery? [15.06.2022 13:38:31] Order|Hi-3: Soundcloud, stay safe, little unit. [15.06.2022 13:38:45] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: We're long past that actually...me less so...we don't know what to do with it if it gets repaired. [15.06.2022 13:38:49] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: We don't have the crew to man it. [15.06.2022 13:39:18] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: We may actually put it into the reserves somewhere. [15.06.2022 13:39:34] Order|Epsilon-5: I am pretty sure Livadia is up to the task of refurbishing it. [15.06.2022 13:39:53] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Last I heard it could take months or years to bring it back to 100%. It was in three pieces when they recovered it. [15.06.2022 13:39:55] Order|Epsilon-5: And I highly recommend using VI-software to help with the manpower problem. [15.06.2022 13:40:30] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: I'll mention that to Zylar next I see him. I expect him to be bugging the hell out of the workers at Livadia. [15.06.2022 13:40:43] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Sounds like him, anyway. [15.06.2022 13:41:35] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Anyway, I don't want to bug you all too much, I expect that you're on some kind of...solemn rememberance for the lost. [15.06.2022 13:41:49] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Only reason to be in this depressing place. Reminds me of a graveyard. [15.06.2022 13:41:55] Order|Epsilon-5: If not that, he is probably beating up a Nomad remains somewhere with a piece of rebar. [15.06.2022 13:42:02] Order|Hi-3: It is a graveyard. [15.06.2022 13:42:16] Order|Hi-3: And a reminder what the Core and Nomads can do. [15.06.2022 13:42:19] Order|Epsilon-5: Its a graveyard and memorial site.. But I was here to see that AI. [15.06.2022 13:42:19] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Ha. That is true Epsilon. Or a renegade AI. [15.06.2022 13:43:44] Order|Epsilon-5: Well then, now that the fear of an AI attack has been mitigated, I can probably get back to transporting that Helium to Theta. [15.06.2022 13:44:06] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: If you need escort, just let us know. [15.06.2022 13:44:22] Order|Hi-3: Were is your transporter currently located? [15.06.2022 13:44:29] Order|Hi-3: *//Where [15.06.2022 13:45:08] Order|Epsilon-5: Its on that.. err [15.06.2022 13:45:10] Order|Epsilon-5: Whats it called [15.06.2022 13:45:18] Order|Epsilon-5: Tarancon base. [15.06.2022 13:45:48] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: We can escort you if you'd like. It's quiet as far as the squids are concerned. [15.06.2022 13:45:56] Order|Epsilon-5: So I'll go fetch that Mastodon, and finish the trip to Theta. [15.06.2022 13:46:03] Order|Epsilon-5: Ah, Callahan, how do you do? [15.06.2022 13:46:16] Order|Hi-3: Guten Tag, Callahan. [15.06.2022 13:46:28] OCV-Neteru: C: Doing well, Just heading over to Nu for research purposes. [15.06.2022 13:46:34] Order|Epsilon-5: You are welcome to come along, miss. [15.06.2022 13:46:46] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: We're more than glad to assist. [15.06.2022 13:46:48] Order|Epsilon-5: It's not far to Theta. [15.06.2022 13:46:58] Order|Hi-3: I will also provide escort. [15.06.2022 13:47:00] Order|Epsilon-5: But first, Tarancon. [15.06.2022 13:47:24] Order|Epsilon-5: Ah, Omicron Nu, it's been quiet there as of late. [15.06.2022 13:47:42] OCV-Neteru: C: Should be a quiet venture then. [15.06.2022 13:49:49] Order|LV-Requiem: RO: Onwards to Theta! [15.06.2022 13:49:58] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Taking up defensive positions. [15.06.2022 13:51:00] Order|Hi-3: Do you mind if quickly scan your ship, Kasumi? [15.06.2022 13:51:09] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Feel free. [15.06.2022 13:52:54] Order|Hi-3: Are you aware that you have adapted nomad weaponry on board, Kasumi? [15.06.2022 13:53:09] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Yeah, we've been frying those human Nomad fucks. [15.06.2022 13:53:55] Order|Hi-3: I advise you to hand them over at an Order base, so we can deal with it properly. [15.06.2022 13:54:21] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Ah. We can do after our escort is complete. [15.06.2022 13:54:48] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: We don't really notice to be honest. The remains freak us the hell out so we offload those quick. The weapons... [15.06.2022 13:54:52] Katakiuchi: ...get overlooked. [15.06.2022 13:55:06] Order|Hi-3: Good, handling nomad technology without the proper equipment can have serious consequences. [15.06.2022 13:55:46] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Zylar has constructed a quarantine area for the weird shit. Katakiuchi is much smaller so we don't have that ability. [15.06.2022 13:56:11] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Kinda hoping he moves to the Nephilim so we can take over the Eventide...but he's a control freak so I doubt it. [15.06.2022 13:56:22] Order|Hi-3: Spacing the weapons and destroying them is always an option as well. [15.06.2022 13:57:45] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: We'll keep that in our thoughts. We don't want our crew being mind controlled into some kind of weird tentacle dream. [15.06.2022 13:57:57] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: *Shudders* [15.06.2022 13:58:16] Order|Hi-3: Only a handful of freaks would want that. [15.06.2022 13:58:31] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: You'd be surprised. Seriously. That's concerning too. [15.06.2022 13:58:33] Order|Hi-3: Disgusting those humans, i tell you. [15.06.2022 13:58:42] Order|LV-Requiem: RO: At that point, they are no longer human. [15.06.2022 13:59:47] Order|Hi-3: Ja, those freaks have to be stopped, else they risk to become infected. [15.06.2022 14:01:32] Katakiuchi: Kasumi: Greetings, Liam. [15.06.2022 14:02:36] Order|Hi-3: Guten Tag, O'Conner. [15.06.2022 14:02:49] Liam.O'Conner: Guten Tag. Data File Corrupt
