John is what now? Wait, why am I even surprised. Let me guess, idiot thought he finally scored with a girl and boom, he got some weird AIs do strange stuff to him and his already damaged mind. That is interesting and good to know, he did not show any difference to his usual self when I last met him. Truly a discreet approach. I will keep it in mind, thanks, Saph.
The uneducated nature of various groups around Sirius can cause major headaches. Bringing up Crayter is just a prime example of this. I am just glad that our Foreign Ministry deals with them alone. They never felt like the trustworthy kind to me, not when I was still Freelancing, not now. And reasoning with some groups - yeah, I guess you have your fair share of "enemies" already. Unavoidable in this times and age. At least dealing with them should be somewhat easier with actual facilities belonging to Auxesia. Nothing keeps one better afloat than solid supply lines and a place to retreat to.
A greater purpose, a greater good. One could say such, though I honestly do not have this in mind when I do what I do.
But you are right, we could do much more if not for the stubbornness and unreliable nature of some parts of Sirius.. or Gallia.
It is a shameful matter of fact, guess we cannot do more than pursue what we see as a greater purpose and try our best, right?
One small decision, can affect the future greatly. The chaotic nature of predictionability fascinates me. I could never programme a foreteller to predict what will happen in Liberty. I will never truly understand why Liberty holds so much of this chaotic potential, yet, is so... consistant. Very interesting indeed.
You may never know what one small act of kindness or cruelty can do to affect the future.
Hm. Persist, or not, it is ultimately your choice. You'll never know the outcomes in trying. And I'll always know that the general rabble will always be afraid of the Technocracy, I need not prove that point any longer, I have persisted on testing the waters for years.
I try not to overthink my actions, but it is my weakness. My motivations, dabble in selfishness and care. I will protect those who I care for, or respect. Whatever race, group, or types of affliction they may suffer bares no importance to me. As for me, I have no personal grand ambitions, not unlike some. I am fulfilled whenever my curiosity - the crave for learning - is satiated, and that is all that matters to me. Not that I would have the time for greater ambitions, had I been interested in any.
Got distracted by a handful of work stuff.
Your message got me thinking though, figured I might double check if either our law enforcement or the Cabinet ever had to.. eh, deal with the Technocracy. Looks like you are ordinary civilian trespassers. Not causing any trouble, at least not visibly, good choice, I guess. Should make potential, discreet meet-ups a lot more easier.
Overall you sound quite satisfied with your life, despite some ill-fated circumstances. I am honestly happy to hear this, seeing as I witnessed not just a few friends fall into despair or dissatisfaction.
And to be open with you, your way of treating people and reflecting upon your actions is far away from a weakness. Sure, it could be abused one day, but if you couldn't even be able to show that little humanity in our current world, what would be its worth? I for one would hate it then.
