“I anticipate tremendous things in transportation over the next few decades. Detroit has the money, the brains and the facilities to contribute its enormous influence in genuine innovation and social viability. But continued myopic fascination with its own chromium navel could cost the auto industry its position as one of the predominant generative factors in our society. Gentlemen: The time is already past. What are you waiting for?” —Syd Mead

Tigran: launching into a story about a time when he was 7 and watched a guy get eaten alive by dogs, completely unprompted and unnervingly blasé about the whole thing.
Etsushir: not listening, warming his hands over the nightly allotment of yams, smoking.
Palo: this is the tenth time he's heard this story, not listening, wondering whether Etsushir is smoking tobacco and where the hell he got it and can he have some?
#Lore:#Tigran has kind of a psychological fixation on people being eaten by dogs. Which is rooted in childhood trauma but it's hard#to tell because he loves dogs and always seems weirdly enthused by the whole concept.#More lore:#They're cooking on a dry dung fire which is very common in the region in general- largely grassland and savannah. Most of the#formerly wooded areas are deforested both on a long scale due to the drying climate and on a short scale of human use.#Wood is a valuable commodity and grown in agricultural regions and harvested with coppicing or otherwise imported by sea.#The northeast has an intact forest that hasn't been widely exploited due to distance from urban centers and impracticality of#transport over land and that's pretty much it.#The Highlands also retain woodlands within the interior but the formerly surrounding forests have been heavily exploited#(due to proximity to major rivers) and were fully wiped out within the past century.#The fact that cremation is the default and expected funerary practice and also used in most sacrificial offerings heavily#contributes (cattle and khait dung is allowable for these purposes due to the animals' sacred status but not considered preferable).#(associated with lower class funerals)#Anyway bottom line dry dung is going to be what the majority of people use for everyday fuel needs and also what pretty#much everyone on the pilgrimage is using (which the wealthier members are unaccommodated to but these guys are)#etsushir#tigran otto#palo apolynnon#the white calf

The View From Here
Characters: Murderbot & Iris & ART
Gen
I wouldn’t have run quite so fast, I think, if I had remembered I was on a moon and not a planet. I was wearing an EVA suit, but that didn’t slow me down much. And I wouldn’t have been running on the surface at all except that the bot I was chasing currently held my favorite projectile weapon in its grubby hands and I wanted it back. I wanted to scream at the bot, but it wouldn’t have heard me. It was a bit preoccupied anyway as it darted over craters and across flatland while running from me.
We jumped and dashed across the terrain until I cornered it on the edge of a crater. With a grin I jumped into a tackle. We flew over the cliff.
SecUnit: ART?
Perihelion: What is going on? Did you take down the bot? Where is Iris?
SecUnit: She’s inside the dome. I…uh…I need a pickup.
Perihelion: Where are you?
SecUnit: Uh. In orbit. I think.
Perihelion: What.
SecUnit: I jumped. Over a crater. And. Uh. Missed the ground.
Perihelion: …
SecUnit: I haven’t come down.
Perihelion: …
SecUnit: Just pick me up, okay?
Perihelion: Did you get your weapon, at least?
SecUnit: …
SecUnit: UGH. Just pick me up.
Perihelion: After I make contact with Iris.
SecUnit: Don’t you fucking dare.
Iris: SecUnit, you��re in orbit?!
SecUnit: …Oh fuck you too ART.
Perihelion: Found you. I’m bringing you both in now. Maybe this will teach you to look before you leap, SecUnit.
SecUnit: Fuck off, ART.
Perihelion: Are you sure?
SecUnit: ART!
Iris: Peri, I hope you’re taking pictures.
Perihelion: No, Iris. I am taking video.
SecUnit: I hate all of you.

Perihelion having an Even Worse Time
(This drawing is based on how the infection manifested physically for TargetControlSystem and how it might feel to be entangled and infected by it - much more abstract but it’s meant to convey the feeling of something so massive being trapped so thoroughly)
