ok listen up, this is actually legitimately important

if this is your first time getting locked up like this, you need to understand one main thing going forward: our lives are less than worthless to these people. every second we're still breathing is a second more than they needed to give us.

i can't promise that we're going to be okay. i don't know if ALASTAIR gives enough of a shit to come for us. but even though i'm not gonna be the guy who has a lot of pretty words to say to keep hope alive or whatever, i do know a few things about staying safe in here. surviving, if this is for the long haul

1) don't make a fuss or be a nuisance to the guards. don't draw attention. the more forgettable you are, the better off you'll be

2) try to avoid using your jewel comms as much as you can. if they realize we're communicating through these, they'll be confiscated

3) DON'T TRY TO BE A HERO. this is the most important point here so i'm gonna repeat it, DO NOT TRY TO BE A FUCKING HERO.

we're not in a fucking action movie, trying to escape or break everyone out will get you in deep ass shit, maybe even made an example out of. don't fucking do it.

I'm not being sarcastic.

Ah, I see now. I didn't get it initially because a "survival at all cost" strategy can be seen as a cowardice.

It probably often is.

But figuring our next step as a team seems to be more pressing right now, than trying to fight our way out of here. We're supposed to go on trial, which means, we'll have to leave this place. Unless it doubles as a tribunal.


[ Then they're pretty much screwed ]

I generally don't intend on dying. [ "generally" being the keyword ]

What worries me is that some of us are being marked for murders. I cannot tell how accurate that rating is - I've never killed a human, and I'm not saying that as excuse, only stating a fact - but they might want to use that to keep us here

It might come up in the trial, but I imagine their trials still require proof.

I only wonder if is ALASTAIR capable of warping us out of here, or would we need to break out first?

[ He was going to argue that perhaps the numbers like 0s or 99 are placed arbitrarily, and are not an indicator for actual lives taken, but he ends focusing on the latter points brought by Kagari ]

And who would benefit the most of whole ALASTAIR team being incarcerated? For sure those who attacked Oska.

We have to find a way to get out of here.

George is locked up here with us, isn't he? I'm inclined to believe something else is at work. Maybe they were able to intercept our communication, or even placed a bug back in the Oska.

Not sure what's worse. If Zymandis are fully capable of commencing saboteur operations, we could have been played for a long time, without even excepting it. It all boils down to the expectations. Make enemy think you're thoughtless brute, to play them into your elaborate trap.

Or the possibility there is more enemies that we're not even aware of, and have no intel about. Completely in the dark about their methods and intentions.


[ Taking down thoughtless brutes is so much more easier ]
scrap_metal: (what else?)

[personal profile] scrap_metal 2017-07-05 10:42 am (UTC)(link)
Leaving something that taps into our communication systems doesn't require anyone present in Oska, though. Even if the only thing they could do is "listening" it still would give them a tremendous advantage.
scrap_metal: (thinking very hard)

[personal profile] scrap_metal 2017-07-07 11:25 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe that's that they did? Informed authorities on our plans and then they waited to catch us red-handed?

[ so much guessing ]
scrap_metal: (say cheese)

[personal profile] scrap_metal 2017-07-12 11:48 am (UTC)(link)
Right, her. It wouldn't make sense to have one of them here.

[ and there his theory goes, flying into sunset ]
scrap_metal: (serious)

[personal profile] scrap_metal 2017-07-14 12:28 pm (UTC)(link)
The "worst case" scenario, basically.
scrap_metal: (. . .)

[personal profile] scrap_metal 2017-07-17 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, if there is something we're going to have in abundance it's time. To figure that out.
scrap_metal: (what do you want?)

[personal profile] scrap_metal 2017-07-18 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
We will need a lot of it.
