    Speed... really isn't liking Matt's tone, but decides to just let it go for now.

    Watch, by the time we find them, Speed and Matt will have killed eachother.

    Tommy looks down at his feet as he walks off the Savior.

    Matt, I swear to god, you're fucking dead

    "So what pre-cisely is our plan of action? Much as I hate to say it, that Japanimated rascal was a fair bit faster pilot than any of us, and they have a head start. I don't, I say, I don't see much hope in chasing them down.

    Seems to me we need some of that 'lateral thinking.'"

    "Now the captain probably thinks I'm in it with you two." Locth shakes his head. "Well, I'll just have to make sure the Ursa makes it back to him safe and sound. He'll see I wasn't a part of this then."

    "Thought you were better than this, honestly. Captain might be a little odd at times, but he keeps his crew safe, runs a tight ship." He sighs. "I suppose I ought to stop you, but... I don't know. Just get out of here. Good luck."

    Locth sits in the pilot's chair and uses his Human Adaptibility to set a course back to where he last saw the pillow ship.

    "Locth the captain is insane, not to mention history's single worst mass-murderer. If you want to go back to him I'm not going to try and stop you but I am going to advise against it. He's willing to sacrifice anything not directly important to him to get what he wants and you might want to consider what that means. If you do meet back up with the crew just make sure to keep yourself safe."

    [Aboard the Redeemed]
    The ship is christened with perhaps the single most ironic name in recent history.

    [Abaord the Olothikron]
    Another Urson runs up and informs you that the Ursa Majoris has just docked with the Pathway. A single human by the name of Locth D'Out is aboard.

    Also, Speed: The ship cost pretty much all of your credits, and the fighter you stole from the Dienederekahn which everyone forgot about.

    [Aboard the Ursa Majoris]
    The Olothikron sends Locth a permission code, sealing the docking bay and flooding it with atmosphere.

    [Aboard the SECond Savior]
    Thieresai walks back to the bridge of the SECond Savior and kicks her boots up onto the helm. "Well, I think that went as well as could've been expected, eh?"

    The SECkov hallucination of the SECommissar nods. "Indeed."

    "So, what's next then?" Thieresai says, dropping her boots back to the floor and leaning forward intently. "What is they bidding, my master?"

    [Aboard the Tehelikron]
    In a darkened hallway, in an area of the station yet to be re-inhabited, a pile of indigo dust spasms and starts, purple light rippling out across it in flashes and sparks. A tendril rises from the dust, as if something within were trying to pull itself out.

    "Chh-zzz-aa-rrrr."

    Another tendril extends, and the dust begins to coalesce.

    "Ch-ee-ssshhhh-aaaa-rrrr."

    The dust hauls itself up onto unsteady, half-formed feet. Two pinpoints of violet light shine out from the center of the dust.

    "Cheesshhiiirrreeee."

    Gary looks a little disappointed that he doesn't get to kill anyone yet.

    "Well poo!"

    Gary pouts all the way to the ship, even during his discussion with one of the Urson to see about getting a ....worforce, attached to the case.

    [Aboard the Redeemed]
    [11] Speed finds that many of the larger races have been canceled since the Change, but a number of local events are still being held. There is a rally race on Tetteren 7 in a week, which should be enough time for you to get there.

    [Aboard the Ursa Majoris]
    [23] Dubh manages to hack into the control column of Thor's Hammer and add a backdoor he can access through his omnitool.

    [Aboard the Olothikron]
    Though he is not particularly pleased with Gary's repeated use of air-quotes around "workforce", but he agrees to send a group out to track down Matt Scorp, Speed Racer, and Ytlkrek Splk.

    "That sounds like a deal that is a fair deal to me." Speed sets a course for Tetteran 7.

    Is the Mach Cycle capable of competing in this sort of race or is Ytlkrek gonna have to sit out?

    Well it seats two, at any rate, like De?ad mentioned. Too bad Loeli's the only one who knows the turbo engine is powered with skorokov! It is unlikely that she'll get the chance to kill you but...

    Ugh, also if this gay feud keeps going much longer I'd like to bail and come back afterwards. I dunno. It's just kinda gay. As a player I just don't enjoy the prospect of 'let's hunt down and kill each other'. I'd rather lose Loeli than deal with the bullshit that is sure to come between players once they kill eachother. Seriously it's going to be the worst sort of meta gaming and ooc bs that I really don't wanna bother.

    The player vs. player crap is stupid. The more I think about it, the more I realize that Dubh would've attacked Matt and Speed because they would have abandoned him, too, if he wasn't on the ship.
