PreambleDoc says it'll help, so here's me writing [censored] down.
SSDD doesn't even begin to cover it. Nothing holds my interest for more than a day or two, but mostly never more than hours or even minutes at a time. Trixie (or was it Travis?), that little cutie pie I found on Chelomey Orbital certainly kept me busy for a while, especially when I put my [censored] on their ..., but I don’t think that's the kind of stuff Doc was talking about. I'll save that for my memoirs.
How writing this [censored] down is supposed to help is beyond me, but I've got nothing but time, so what the hell. I can always eat that bullet later. I ain't in no rush, I'm just so [censored] tired of THIS PLACE. It's not that I want to move on, I just don't see any point in staying HERE.
Anyway, I'm not into all that sharing-and-caring [censored], so from here on out, imma just stick to the main story if that's cool with you Doc.
Entry 001 : 3307.09.24
People, hrrmmph. Well, people suck. Most of em anyway. Not like a little mind you, I mean full on suck a golf-ball through a straw, [censored] SUCK. Don't let anyone tell you any different. If they try, they're probably one of the ones that suck. That’s why I like space. Not a lot of people in it, least not if your doin it right.
Space in 'The Bubble' can get a little hectic. Doesn't matter where you go, there's always something ready to [censored] up your day. Hijackers, pirates, Market took a dive while you were enroute, that auto-dock that conTINUOUSLY HITS THE [censored] ENTRYWAY!!!! AND WHAT THE [censored] IS UP WITH THAT TUCK AND ROLL LANDING!?!?!? JUST [censored] LAND!!!!! Woooo-saaaa. It's always something. Doc thinks I might have anger and people issues. I think [censored] him.
Got a little 'Been There Done That' syndrome going on, lookin for the next new thing. Should be a little easier now, considering how well they set me up. Got my own Carrier, named Serenity (I know - shut the [censored] up, I'll name it what I want), and a small flotilla of smaller ships that can satisfy any type of mission or adventure. Everything from an Asp to an Anaconda, and a Python to a Beluga. But no weapons on any of em. Not one. Never again. The entire Bubble doesn't have the credits to make that happen, and I would pray for the stupid [censored] that tries if I thought anyone who cared was listening (but I'll save that for another day).
Made my first billion exploring of course, but that was before [censored] hit the fan, and I ended up getting 'disappeared'. Made a couple of loops down south, figured it'd be good practice for the real long haul to the Core, and eventually Colonia. That first loop is where I found the first bunch of Dynasty sites down in Elysian Shore. Made me want to find them all, including the Generation ship mentioned in the logs.
Made a few Billion credits trading in the markets, enough to keep the Carrier running for a year, ~76K Ly of Tritium, and a billion left over for random expenses. I should be set for the moment, no cares or worries in the world. (roflmaowsmp)
Once I had my nest egg, I eventually did get out to four of the Dynasty sites, all of them except for that Generation ship in Formadine Rift. I couldn't reach it with my first Exploration ship (just an ASP), but between Serenity and Prometheus (my explorer Anaconda), I don't think I'll have much problems reaching it now. What the [censored] was the Dynasty Project for? What the [censored] were they doing?
Most recently I did a little work for 'the man', or rather 'the woman', her royal hotness Aisling Duval. (That [censored] [censored]!!!!). I made it all the way to the 3rd rank in her little support network before I got bored, but if I'm being honest, I'm just in it for the shields anyway. I'll circle back to her in a few weeks when I'm eligible to get them.
Already said I made some money on the markets.
Oh yeah! I helped rescue a [censored] ton of people from the Cornstar system (or something like that). A Thargoid attack or some [censored]. Got out about 5000 people. Saving some lives was nice for a change, but of course I lost interest the moment I hit my marker. I mean, once I got my participation-patch, what was the point? Lives? Don't kid yourself. You're in it for the money and the glory too, and if you tell yourself anything different, then maybe YOU'RE just one of those people that suck, but at least now you know why.
I think it may be time for that long 'walk-about' around the galaxy. Probably start with that Generation ship thing in the Formadine Rift, ride up that arm through Vulcan Gate, Perseus Arm, and all the way to the Core, then up to Colonia. After that, who knows. It'll be nice to get away from the people again. Did I mention people suck?
That should do it for now. Getting bored with this already. Maybe I’ll circle back around to it in day or two.
