Hustle

The news of a Farragut class cruiser's destruction by what everyone thought was a child's story has hit the pilots I know hard. Everyone is scrabbling to arm up with... something... that might do some good. The new Aegis group are asking for equipment to make new... things... which might be useful against the Thargoids. But Aegis also aren't telling us what we are building, and that has my worry bump itching (as my great grandfather would say).The leaked video of the engagement clearly shows that the Feds fired first. No surprise there then, but I fear we are being dragged into a war when what we should be doing is trying to make friends.
I hear of a group called the Myrmidons who espouse peace at all costs, even human. Maybe I'll look into their cause a little more, although I might be a poor recruit: can I really keep my finger off the trigger when my life is in danger?
