Hey, team. Just a note to keep your heads up and eyes open for any new information on these anomalies from our own worlds. They could be linked to a wider threat to this universe, and intel on the Network indicates there's a link to the OTO.

That's not our only priority right now though. Some of you might have already heard something about this, but Aegis is taking charge of this month's Swear-In. Sorry if I seemed a little absent last month. I was in a lot of talks with the government and our admin staff about how to make it all happen. The main event's going to be a sporting event on the Moon for imPort teams to compete in, but we're planning to work in a diplomatic angle to.

If any of you are available to lend a hand, I'd appreciate the help. Everyone else, you'll get the full story in the news soon enough. Be ready to represent the best of our team, both in front of the cameras and on the game fields.

By the way, how did everybody like Blasto? I was thrilled when I saw it was in-universe now. It's a real classic. I hope you all liked it as much as I do.

[ One benefit to unmasking for most of the team, she can start typing as herself again. It's almost a weird feeling. ]

I dont get out to the movies much these days
for obvious reasons

what sort of help will you need with the swear-in?

text

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

[Ah, familiar green text with nary a 'thou' or 'thee' in sight. Jacob missed you.]

Anything. Everything. I don't think I ever realized how much work goes into these things until now.

But what I could really use right now is someone who knows event planning to coordinate venue prep with the staff at the Moon Base.

oh honey
youve gotten right in over your head havent you
but its alright thats what you have me for

ill need a copy of the agenda and pre-planning youve done for this sports exhibition and i can see to everything from here

quick question
do you think it might perhaps be too soon to host another swear-in on the moon

text

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

Maybe a little bit. But I know you're the right person to help get me floating again. I'll send you everything I've got right away.

I think it's been long enough. The hostage crisis was almost half a year ago. I've confirmed the base is fully repaired, and they're ready to host big events again.

I think a new Swear-In on the Moon will be good for people. Help everyone move past what happened at the last one.

god has it really been that long
it happened the same month i returned

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

Time flies when you're having fun, I guess. Or when you're worrying about Atropos and moon takeovers.

It's lucky for us that you showed up when you did. You played a big role in getting that mess cleaned up.

[glowsferatu]

i was only a facilitator in the whole thing
lucina and ruka were the ones who really put themselves at risk

still i am glad i was there
they had both rather exhausted themselves by the time it ended

text

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

They weren't the only ones. Still, you did great there.

By the way. I don't know if you noticed already, but Sabriel's been sent home.

text

[glowsferatu]

i did
i suppose ive had a stroke of luck there
just in time for her to miss that shes been serving alongside a vampire this whole time

text

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

I guess it removes some tension. I'm still going to miss her though.

With her gone, maybe you're a little closer to putting away Psychopomp for good. I was glad when you unmasked to so many people last month. That took guts.

text

[glowsferatu]

Its a process
that was a substantial step on the road and i believe the time is soon coming
but we will have to see when it properly arrives

[cannotrest]

Jacob.

They had Blasto reporting to a volus chief.

And I mean chief, not a made up volus Councilor.

WHAT.

- Spectre Ashley Williams

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

I know that might seems strange, but you've got to remember most people don't know a lot about Spectres. It's a damn secretive group. It'll make more sense if you watch the director's commentary on the Special Edition. The director's a fan of classic turian noir like 'the Mandible of Justice,' and he wanted a chief-rogue relationship as an homage to those old vids.

Besides, it's not about accuracy so much as it's all about that skycar chase sequence. You know the one I'm talking about.

[cannotrest]

Does the director's commentary also explain why Bubin and Honey were completely one note? I've seen better elcor acting than that.

[ not even gonna touch the skycar chase, still mad about inaccuracy and bad acting ]

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

Wait. Just how much elcor acting have you seen, exactly?

[Avoiding! The question!]

[cannotrest]

I sat through Elcor Hamlet and a lot of other vids when I was in hospital at the start of the Reaper War.

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

[Jacob really, really wants to get on Ashley's case over Elcor Hamlet. But:]

I didn't know you'd gotten hurt. I'm sorry.

What happened?

[cannotrest]

A Cerberus bot (that EDI later took over as her mobile unit) bashed me against a skycar at the Mars Archives. Almost killed me. I ended up in hospital with a broken shoulder, concussion, the works.

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

Damn. I think I heard something about that from EDI when she was here, but I didn't know it was you that had gotten put through the grinder like that. Glad you made it out, Ashley.

[cannotrest]

Thanks. Yeah, that was definitely me with the painkillers, physio, and vids.

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

And Elcor Hamlet.

So. What did you think?

[cannotrest]

I wouldn't say I enjoyed Elcor Hamlet, but I did like some of the line interpretations. Not just way more varied and detailed than "badassfully" and "coquettishly" every line, but different from other productions I've seen too.

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

With an all-elcor cast, I'd be surprised if it wasn't different.

I never knew you had so much depth in theatre, Ash.

[cannotrest]

Probably less than you're thinking. Shakespeare's just a sideways step from classic poetry, and some of it I ended up repeating in school when we transferred colonies.
