[ very quietly:]

What the fuck is vore?

[naeddre]

I am not... entirely sure, but I don't like it based on context.

[solesuccess]

[ louder: ]

I don't want to explain vore.

[tombtaker]

I don't want you to explain vore!

[ TCH ]

[solesuccess]

I'm not getting into the sex part of it, but it's basically being eaten. Okay? And yet still different than cannibalism.

[naeddre]

-- The what part.

[solesuccess]

G**gle it, I'm not explaining!

[inquired]

Lucien.

[tombtaker]

I said not to! It's not my fault he can't listen!

[tombtaker]

No more questions.

[solesuccess]

Thank you.

[inquired]

[ types something into his iris.........


.... makes icon face........ ]


.... At any rate. Happiness and stability, you said.

[tombtaker]

[ hes GOT to find out what vore is. ]

Happiness or stability. A choice. One or the other. Much like what was offered to me to correct, I imagine.

[ he had chosen Brevyn OR the journal in life. And was offered them both before being ... eaten. ]

[naeddre]

[okay but i don't think happiness or stability is a thing you'd get from the journal]

[inquired]

[ +1 ]

[tombtaker]

[ its fine ]

[inquired]

[ time to g**gle ]

Mm. And you rejected her offer, so you were eaten. [ hrmm... ] ... It seems a bit like assimilation is what it wants, doesn't it? When we first arrived here, our senior crew - memoryless, mind - were all quite happy to be working here.

[solesuccess]

Meaning to imply we really can't have both as long as we're on this stupid ship. [ great. ]

[tombtaker]

I believe it's ... the other way around. That it wants to offer us both. As I said, I rejected its offer, and it didn't take to it kindly.

[solesuccess]

[ thank you lucien, he is projecting. ]

...hm. [ he's not entirely sure how to feel about that, actually. ] People have been speculating this whole thing's like a dream in a lot of places. So the idea of dipping into a fantasy to escape reality by taking happiness and stability isn't that far out there, I think.

[naeddre]

... It doesn't seem to want us to leave. The ship. Maybe it thinks we are safer here.

[inquired]

... hmm. Maybe. Perhaps that is why the ship itself locks down on Thursdays. If the disruption in emotion is irregular, the sudden lockdowns could be the ship 'protecting' us, so to speak. Especially considering this has happened before.

[solesuccess]

Could also explain the vines that forcibly brought everyone back last week, too.

[inquired]

Gods, I hate plants.

[ ugh ]

But, your theory - the cult that we were harassed by on the Station last week that worshipped the cosmoelectromagnetic waves was all about 'unity'. That was their whole goal. Unity for all.

[solesuccess]

Yeah, cults are like that. [ dry. ] If it's not about unity, it's about enlightenment, and if it's not about that it's probably about eternity.

...so it would make sense if the primary focus was alignment.
