OOC Eucharis Discussion

@Wes See, you just solved the problem right there... considering you control the bloody catgirl numero uno herself, why did you ever doubt a solution like this was reachable ICly? If anything, if Hanako's plan works to draw out the enemy, she may actually end up with a commendation instead of a demotion for thinking outside of her normal box, right? :)

The only shuttle at the lighthouse is the feces-encrusted junker depositing Rixx dudes outside.

Erk? no shuttle docked on the top floor of the Bisen means we're going to have to lower our standards... heh.
 
Yes. Listen to Paladindins you will, too, Wes. There are ways around this and as GM you hsve the GM powers to bend the narrative wherever you want/need it to go! :)

It cannot end this way. I've been on the Eucharis for over 4 years and I say so! :)

Though this may be a messy end for Suites if Natsumi gets a hold of him..........

Well, considering Umeshu and Tsuguka are heading up in a hurry, and the Rixxikor are ivnading the lighthouse, Umeshu would naturally want to enable the CFS shield of the installation and lock it down from further intrusion. Going to command and control she would then catch Candon already there doing his secret communication, and as the commanding officer she would certainly have a rare moment of rage at him betraying Hanako's trust, along with tsuguka's reaction she spoke of... this was what I was planning on writing up in my next post.

Again, the 1a Lighthouse on the surface of the planet is not equipped with a CFS, only the 2a space model would have that.


Wes said:
I will see if I can come up with a post tomorrow where Hanako talks to command (She is not going to be happy to get that call, especially when she's in the middle of fighting off Rixxikor legions) where she explains to Yui that the ship was supposed to get taken and is safe(ish) and convinces command to let the Eucharis crew handle this.

Can Hanako be reached by their communications from off planet or out of the system? And from the post, I think Suites is contacting SAINT directly, not going through regular military command channels. Their whole thing is controlling information and covering things up, so there's a chance that even the head of the military might not be immediately informed, or be allowed to interfere with something they're handling. Although I'm really not sure how all of that works.
 
@Wes I am so sorry. I've been working really hard lately I have been sick while I've been doing it and definitely not sleeping enough, I must have missed something very important. I didn't realize that contacting SAINT would lead to something like this. I was honestly expecting to reach an operator where he would ask for untraced funds to purchase equipment for the mission of ensuring that word never got out. Please, let me amend my post, you know I don't want to hurt the story

SAINT's mission is to gather information for Star Army command.

I have been feeling down lately and have a lot of IRL stress right now and I reacted worse than I should have because of that. I was upset because I thought this would be the end of the line for my character. If you want really to amend your post, do it fast before someone else posts a response. If not, we will figure out a way in the RP.
 
Well seeing as Suites is the only one to get the comm response no one else is gonna know yet. So unless he blurts it out or Wes has the fleet show up, were good. That said, @Rizzo write quick man!

Done. I hope this works better.

Much better! It puts the original mission back on track. Thank you.

My post may not be finished til tonight because my wife invited my mom-in-law over and now I'm stuck cleaning things before she gets here, and then she has to be entertained. You know how it is.

Let's kill as many Rixxikor as it takes to get our ship back! Go Rambo on them, Eucharis crew!
 
Well looky here. I take a break for a day and minds are lost. Glad we have a solution figured out.

@Wes Sorry about the RL stuff. Let me know if you need anything. An ear, a prayer, a vent, whatever.

And for IC purposes and future references, I'm gonna pull this card, again...

I think you've been RPing with a set plan for too long to know how to deal with this kind of situation. Remember your roots, man. When did stuff ever go according to plan in an Ayenee chat room? There's always a work around.
 
@Reynolds Oh, my mistake! I thought both of them had cfs systems installed. I will edit that part out then. Also if it is ground installation I will go back and edit the little jumping entry I did in the previous post too (thought it was hovering sorta)...
 
Wes deleted the post mentioning the Rixxikor attacking the lighthouse, so I'm not sure if Umeshu actually has anything to seal the doors against at the moment...

How I know. Major empathy for ya, boss.
 
Hum, Reynolds is right. The Rixxikor are not actually noted as having landed as far as I can tell. It's okay through.

Take a breather if you need to Wes, it's not like there is anything stopping people just holding back for a day or two, and keeping draft posts in mind. We are all along for the ride, I don't think anyone is going to just instantly disappear.
