MeowersTelling 20 scavs to stand in a straight line should've been more difficult than aiming.
20 scavs were only comparison. And to that electromagnet: potentialy is possible to deflect trajectory with electromagnet strong enough to move ship.

From curiosity and to prove my theory, I watched test firing of railgun from 2015. That thing from 300 meters penetrated 10-15 layers of steel with no problem. Sabot, as it is named, flew with speed Mach 7 which makes 2,5 km/s. And it didnt change direction even if steel plate was angled. That thing is monstrous. So after 1300 years, I can believe in existence of handheld gun with that capabilities
A test of what, exactly? A tank or naval-caliber railgun?
Because those things fire shells way bigger than anything handheld ever would. I wouldn’t use those as a basis for anything other than a weapon of similar size.

Sci fi is my answer. FSD in our time is not real. But I will modify it

Kasumi GotoSo I did a thing… thoughts? (Aka asking for potential feedback.)
Since I’m at this already, I might have a stab at drawing up what I imagine Kira’s totally-not-over the top railgun to look like tomorrow(or, I suppose, later today… seeing as I took a little too long making this).
Also, yes, Azimuth is absolutely willing to pay that kind of money for a single person. For anyone with dubious morals, that is… and if they can figure her out.
So uh ya Jenna will most likely be hunting that bounty

She can try. She also doesn't know Kira or what she looks like very well(or at all), and as far as I'm concerned... Azimuth has no clue that her and Silvia are doing things together.
(If I were you, I’d look at it more as a thing that Azimuth doesn’t publicly hand out to anyone, for their PR image. However you’d like to write that in.)

Alright, second attempt. As I was saying, I have no idea why the text in this just decided to start turning blurry. If anyone has ideas to correct it(because I'm not sure this is very legible), I'm open to hearing them.
Don't expect much more than this in terms of complexity, though. At least, right now. I'm already not very good at drawing, and have exactly zero experience with 3D modelling.

Jenna MarquezNot in an active manor. No point in needlessly wandering around if a target is bound to show up where you currently are
(Sorry for three posts in a row)
Wouldn’t it be a bit hypocritical for “Jenna” to commit to such a bounty when it is definitely not a legally issued one, and she refused to follow through on illegal slavery?
Kira certainly has not committed any crimes(as per the legal system) against Azimuth… and anyone who commits an aggression against her would also have to suffer the consequences that would entail. And I don’t mean the injuries sustained trying to get her in.

I might also add the idea of thargoid modifications in a human in her eyes means Kira is not human. Jenna despises thargoids almost as much as she does a certain slaver

Jenna MarquezNot saying she would follow along with it. Shoot she might be taking the offer to warm the person they have a massive bounty on their head
What I was thinking is that Kira’s totally legal AI will warn her about it when entering the station next anyway. Which she probably figures is the case, anyhow - as Azimuth is very intently looking to get their hands on her, and has accordingly told EDI to monitor for such things. Especially with Seo safely in the hands of Aegis.
Some attention might also want to be paid to it potentially - and unwittingly - giving away one’s identity, if warned about it.
Also from her view point Kira is just simply a target.
Considering the available information, wouldn’t it be reasonable to assume an individual might be led to make certain guesses as to why Azimuth would offer such a contract, and what their intent is?
As targets go, it’s certainly quite out of the ordinary…

Kasumi Gotoas Azimuth is very intently looking to get their hands on her, and has accordingly told EDI to monitor for such things. Especially with Seo safely in the hands of Aegis.
But didn't you say that it wouldn't be public information. So it's unlikely EDI would even be able to know about it.
