SEEDS Security Codes and Why They Matter

So, I've been thinking about one of the details in Trigun: Stampede that was not present in either '98 or the manga. In '98, Knives just hacking into the SEEDS codes was left as-is. He walked up to Captain Joey and shot him and apparently took his pilot's seat. Did the Captain have the navigation open at the time? Was it closed and Knives had to do some hacking? Anyway, there, he did it on his own. Now, in Trigun Maximum, which treats Vash and Knives' childhood differently (just Rem there raising them), there is a foreshadowing of what is to come. In Volume 6, Rem is depicted waking up to an emergency signal in the middle of her sleeping-hours. (Aw, she sleeps in her regular clothes, mom-jeans and all...). Panicked, she yells at Knives for him and Vash to lock themselves in their rooms and not to come out or speak up for ANY reason, even if they hear voices outside. She tries to handle the situation, but it goes from bad to worse and the automatic crew-wakening protocol goes into effect, which she is very concerned about (for reasons that we who have read the manga know about)!

In the beginning of Volume 7 the crew wakes up, there's a situation-update. The ships are going off-course and will collide if things are not corrected. They're working through the issues and suddenly, there's an unknown factor that kicks in to correct the course. Rem then gets the crew all settled back in again for nappy-time... And proceeds immediately to Vash and Knives, where she scolds Knives with (Rem's angry mom-face, my beloved)! Knives was playing around with the ship codes and systems. He'd apparently hacked his way into the system and was curious about SEEDS' functions. (One would assume that Rem changed some of the codes after this, but I bet they were in some kind of hacking-war, with her trying to stay one step above curious Plant-twins). Knives did not mean to nearly cause a catastrophe, but this shows that he can and is a foreshadowing to when he DOES mean to cause one later. Now, in Trigun Stampede, it is stated by Nai / Knives that Vash gave him the ship-codes, also that he spent a lot of time and trouble changing the codes for every human ship. (The manga lists the ship they are born on as the Mothership, presumably guiding the entire fleet, in Stampede, it is just Ship 5, which implies multiple guides with multiple navigators). I am wondering where Studio Orange is going with this. Will it be a situation like the manga where the kids are just playing around? Little prank-war with Rem? Maybe Vash is sharing a ship code innocently, as part of their games? Or is it going to be darker, more sinister? I wonder if Vash was originally of the thought of "maybe we need to crash the ships and kill all humans (except Rem) because they're scary and dangerous because of what happened to Tesla" and then had a change of heart and backed out of it? - I can see that happening... him having his cathartic alone-time with Rem as in the manga and then talking things out with Nai and thinking that they weren't going to go through with it. And then Nai betrays him. I've been wondering about the guilt Vash carries over the Big Fall in Stampede. Is it an unnecessary, undue guilt like he seems to have about a lot of things? Or is there a guilt born from "I had originally planned disaster / we had originally planned disaster" and it came true even after he'd backed out? It's just that... in both '98 and Maximum, he does carry his cross (that is not Wolfwood's), but he seems to feel less specifically guilty over this (the Big Fall). He's really more like "Knives, how could you do this to everyone / Rem?!" He just seems more guilt-ridden in Stampede than in the other media and I am wondering if there is a dark secret behind it. I can see it going either way.

Hear me out re: the Ghost MV.

The whole came back from war wrong thing is so tasty, but take it a step into sci-fi territory. Say Original Flavor Jeff is still in space and soldier!Jeff is also a clone.

Wife wouldn't know, she was anticipating OF's return, but we don't actually see anything to confirm he's back from space. Maybe it's a one-way mission and he doesn't have the heart to tell her. Maybe the military bigwigs know it's a one-way trip but he doesn't. Either way, the farmboy clone is OF's companion gift to his wife, but somewhere after OF blasts off it becomes an experiment with the soldier clone in charge. Observing everything. Learning, to an extent, who he's supposed to become when he "returns".

It doesn't go as planned, ofc. Like, enough time has passed that Wife's memories of OF are kinda fuzzy, and maybe they didn't know each other all that well to start. And she repeated specific memories of OF with farmboy clone (like the blindfold), maybe because that was also part of the experiment, but now the memories are blurred together and she can never quite tell if she's comparing soldier clone to farmboy or the original.

And little niggling things are wrong. Soldier adopts some mannerism that was farmboy's but not the original's. He'll occasionally betray too much knowledge of current events that happened while he was supposed to be in space. His body feels the same against hers and that's a relief until she remembers that space should have physiologically left its marks on him. It's wrong that he feels so familiar.

no video or other posts promoting today's ticket sale over the weekend - so Dan really wants most dedicated phannies to get their tickets first. it's both smart (because they are more likely to provide good quality interactions) and sweet (this is for us and for him and is kind of a celebration of the whole wad era). so i think that if there are any tickets left after today he will promote the shows more because it's good to have sold out shows when you're recording them. and if there's no promo then his new team is just as shitty as the previous one asdfghjkl

ahahaha, obsessed with "will he, won't he? promote the shows"!

i really thought they would upload a gaming video yesterday and show the poster there or something. like, it made sense in my head. but Dan just dipped completely after the announcement. king. now i hope they don't upload today! maybe, it would really be wise to wait and see how the ticket sales go and, if not so good, then drop a video this week. + normal instagram post. his team is aiming for sold out shows and maybe that's why the venue is so small. they are not making the original tour mistakes here. good for them!

Made a post in a Jewish fb group about being embarrassed to start going to shul again bc I only have one thing to wear and last time I went to services someone commented that I wear it every week.

One of the first comments I received was "Are you in therapy? Its not normal to be so upset about this"

Like gee thanks that definitely made me feel better about not being able to afford clothes 😭

All the other comments told me to go to thrift stores, which is great except I'm fat and thrift stores almost never have 3x/22 clothes

Idk I'm just really stressed about it and still kind of embarrassed to wear the same thing every week
