Week 3
[Four people dead now - six, if you include the crew. Things have been a little rough on the Starfield Penitentiary this week. Blaze Dudely doesn't make a public reappearance during the weekend, so you've got a few days to yourselves to recover, though he's probably still sticking to his office hours if you really feel like going to see him. On Sunday morning, you may find that you're recovering a a few other things as well - both strange dreams and some new items.
In addition, there's a new set of doors at the end of the corridor, by that empty space where you'd been having your fight club. Looks like you've got a new wing to explore.]

[He'll catch it and dribble a bit as well]
...let us assume we convince him. That this stops, by whatever means. Then what?
no subject
-As you've said, everyone we care about are just insignificant specks in the universe. I don't disagree. But as another insignificant speck, I don't think I was meant to look at things from the universe's perspective.
If that's not possible, or not desirable, then I suppose the next question is 'where do we go instead'.
no subject
I did not say it well.
[To say the least.]
It is not about being insignificant. But do you remember your ancestors of five thousand years ago? Do you know your lineage?...I do not, aside from two or three generations.
Most of what is remembered are the atrocities. Wars. And achievements. The culmination of history, piled upon the remains of the previous.
[He lines off a shot...and takes it.]
Oda, while you may not be a warrior like me...your writings may endure better than whatever legacy I create. I respect you for that.
[Aaaand he misses.]
no subject
I would like to think they'll last. But you're right, I don't know my own lineage. I think most people can't go very far back.
...But, I think your impact will be felt for a long time. Ripples of what we did may still be going even when no one remembers your name or mine.
no subject
I have to ask - if you could bring them here. Would you?
no subject
[Those two questions have very different answers.]

no subject
I would. It would probably be safer for them than home. We would have to find a suitable place to settle down, and I think it might take a while to get them to not call aliens weird-looking to their faces, but... I think they could be happy out here.
no subject

Human-passing, at least. [o r i o n.]
no subject
They'd like most of the people here, I think. [Blaze is obviously excluded from this.]
...Katsumi likes to ride on my shoulders because he gets to be tall that way, you would definitely be his favorite.
