the triumvirate!

[faecaptainofdreams]

“Reclaimer…?

Reclaimer, are you here?

Construct?

Please, do not give up on me.

I wish to right my wrongs.

The void around me is deafening; I cannot see.

There was…light, and heat, and the force of gravity surging through my circuits until I broke.

I remember…

I remember myself, I remember…Chakas…

I am Chakas…

I am 343 Guilty Spark.

Can anyone hear me…?

Are these pleas only in my mind?

I cannot engage my sensory processors; all I feel is suspension, so I must be adrift in space.

I am alone.

I am…afraid.

This is not peace, this is not relief.

Please do not let me pine here for eternity, trapped with my trauma and my memories, and yet another dead vessel.

Won’t someone, anyone, please find me…?”

Same author as the Previous Story I linked but

What if a rebel pilot went alone on a doomed rescue mission for the girlfriend whose ship she watched get taken by femdom plant aliens, and she got immediately captured and then found out her girlfriend actually got domesticated like ten days ago, then she threatens an entire city-sized ship with a single exploding oven in order to be reunited with her girlfriend, and then ends up becoming a very willing pet to the same owner and they get a special version of the mind control implants that lets the girlfriends share each other's thoughts and sensations, and then they get doublefuck psychic brain blasted by each other's blissed out feedback loop?

WHAT THEN, HUH?

You'll squirm at how cute and hot this story is, that's what.

I swear this author dug a scalpel into my chest, carved out a piece of my soul, and put a collar on it. It's so good. Just clamped a jumper cable directly into my brain stem and said "what would it take to make Amy's brain, specifically, go WHOOSH"

And you know what happened next? My brain went WHOOSH.

I will ABSOLUTELY be reading this again.

[sheepalmighty]

Didn't know you could play an Armored Core in first person: in Master of Arena you can press square + triangle + start together, press start again to unpause and you can play using a first person camera. From this angle it's pretty fun and cool dodging enemy fire coming straight at you. Wonder if you can change the camera for any of the other games

TRANSCRIPT:

RACHE BARTMOSS

"A friend of mine once said his life's ambition was to be shot by a jealous husband at the age of 103. Me, I want to push the envelope so far that my discoveries drive people insane, that the ordinary person can't look at me without feeling the feebleness of his own pathetic routine existence. My goal is to be brain-wiped at 103, mobbed by thousands of irate cyberpunk netrunners because I'm too cutting edge.

I don't think I'll succeed, because the harder I drive to the Edge, the further it looks to be. I push myself over more and more ground, and it seems like I'm getting closer to the Edge, but I can't quite reach it. But that doesn't matter, because it's not flying over the Edge that counts, it's driving yourself towards it. Life without a goal is meaningless. When I die, I won't be some corpo-rate cog sitting around saying, 'Well, I had a lot of money once.' I'll be screaming and singing, telling people, 'Yes, I did what I thought was right, without quitting, ever, until I was destroyed! They never took that from me!'

I live for the drive, the struggle. I love Nietsche, because he understood it, although he was wrong about the limits of infinity.

Sheesh. Listen to me. I sound so serious. I better go attach a lightning rod to my sockets and stand in the rain a while."

@shackld said: "Earl! Uh, happy birthday!" Nobody would blame her at feeling a little uneasy at being around the man, he didn't exactly seem to like her all that much and well, Chief can't say she blames him but the whole 'bomb' situation did wonders for her opinion of him as well. Still, there was a part of her that wanted to gain his trust so… baby steps. "Zoya told me, but I didn't really know what to get you so-" She's quick to step into the room, having lingered awkwardly in the doorway, and slide the envelope towards him. "It's a card, it's got a dog on it." She didn't know why that was important to mention. "And also… a gift card to this lousy fast food place, um. I don't know, it's good - maybe you can take Horo." (i stand by that shes scared of him idec)

happy birthday earl

When the Chief approaches, Happy birthday is the last thing that even the ever-cunning fox expects. Mostly because HE certainly hasn't informed her of the day, but he doesn't think about it that much either. At least, not until Horo or Zoya or any of the other Legion members make it abundantly clear that he won't just be working on his birthday like he intends. Every year he tries, every year he fails. Still. Chief is unexpected even when it comes to today.

" ... Thank you, Chief. " It takes him a moment to thank her properly; he is nothing if not polite on matters like this. " Zoya told you? Now I know how everyone seems to keep finding out. " So that was where the leak in his personal information was. Even if it was only the day. Though, he can practically imagine her rolling her eyes and remarking that C'mon Earl, you need to loosen up! What's one day of celebration? because that WAS so very her.

He lifts a hand calmly. " Nothing is neces- " Still, before he can actually dismiss it, the chief has already produced an envelope and placed it on the desk. Its so...absurdly ordinary that he almost chuckles. Almost. Something like birthday cards even with all the violence and chaos. He ensures she isn't touching it before he reaches out to grasp the envelope and open it to see the card. Amusement gleams in his eyes at her apparent need to inform him of the fact it has a dog on it. " Symbolic? " He asks, though there's a hint of teasing in his voice rather than just the usual grim tone. Whether she catches it or not is of little matter he supposes. " It's a very nice dog. " Might as well humor it. A dog gifted to a fox, how funny. " I appreciate it, Chief. "

Earl glances at the gift card that slides out, grasping it between gloved fingers. Her discomfort is evident, but that's the lowest thing on his priorities. For all the tough, ruthless, and cunning energy that Earl gives off ( and indeed, is ), the mention of Horo immediately has his focus an interest. He always has a soft spot for her. No matter where they are or what has happened, he is always her big brother first and foremost.

" Can Horo come out to a lunch? " Earl asks, dark eyes focusing on the Chief with active interest now. That would be nice, a way to spend time and check on his little sister. " Thank you, again. This is more than I expected. "
