Elite roleplay: Q&A and OOC

I like the design of that T7 brick. I'd love more industrial looking spaceships - I always thought the ships in Aliens looked much cooler than those from StarTrek with their polished corridors and exteriors... but then, I also liked the gothic look of the illuminated USS Cygnus from the old Black Hole movie. And where's the Panther Clipper..?

Anyway, I still have a few tickets left for the T Tauri Harmony Festival...

I’ll decline the invitation. I would only take away from the actual show by everybody staring at every given opportunity…

… but if someone else wants an interview with Hothis, go right ahead. And try not to stab each other yet.

Why stabbing? We live in a civilised era... of firearms. :p

The knife just adds that personal touch. Preferably right into the gut, or the chest, right about where the heart is.

… it’s also easier to conceal.

...but this is fun. What's more important than having fun? :p

I think that definition of ‘fun’ differs based on the circumstance. Are you shooting some random pirate or scavenger in the middle of nowhere on some frozen rock where light never reaches?

Then ‘Blast it with a gun’ applies.

Are you facing a bastard who wronged you personally, made you really go through some shit, and you want to see the life fade from their eyes as they look at you?

Not much beats the knife. Pistol shot through the head also applies, though. Preferably with a revolver, so you can really hear the shot echo/resonate.

(Or you could also go complete overkill and turn their head into pulp with a railgun, point blank, but… that’s a particularly special execution reserved for particularly special circumstances, like if you were to blow robo-Salvation’s head off after defeating it. Just before or after you also wipe[d] the data storage with any backups.)

Well, regarding bastards who made me go through some shit... I'd like to see him locked in a basement and living in misery as long as possible because death is too easy.

And we’re still at the “different definitions of fun” part. As far as I’m concerned, seeing that sore dead and removed from the world - quite literally - would be much more preferable to having it waste away somewhere. (See how Kira has, so far, handled… ‘problems’ in her life.)

Although there’s some leeway to be given to differing circumstances, I don’t feel particularly bothered to discuss the subject to that depth or extent.

Of course. Because there's an invitation to some wacky rave party and suddenly we started talking about stabbing and exploding people. I mean, what the actual heck? :p

(btw, a tour to Azimuth facilities really does sound intriguing, I have to admit, might be some real fun)

Im gonna tell you right now you got about a 50/50 shot of not leaving the azimuth labs after that tour

06 Jun 2024, 6:31pm

I knew it! It's so awesome that so many people may want to stay there, to work and live in those labs! Is it? Is it?... :p
