[Empiricist]

[To: Abraxas] <I suppose I wagered too much on dying then... Very well, thanks.>
[To: Richard] <Wasn't he not in the thread for an extended period of time and the thread currently somewhat dead?>

[IamanElfCollaborator]

>Seriously, you'll gain nothing by dying. You'll be even MORE fucking bored.<
>...I dunno. My brain hurts trying to think about it.<

[Empiricist]

[To: Abraxas] <I suppose so, I was hoping more that dying just results in cessation of existence. No afterlife, no soul, just suddenly not existing.>
[To: Richard] <Why does that thread suddenly die every now and then anyway?>

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Richard mind-shrugs.
>You want to end up in the Fields of Ashpodel? Go right on ahead. Stand in a field for all of fucking eternity if you die.

Oh, and the whole "you actually know what you're fucking doing" spiel.<

[Empiricist]

[To: Abraxas] <I was more hoping that there would be no afterlife, or any continuation of any aspect of myself after death. But seeing as that isn't the case I won't pursue it. *sigh* Great, I have no reason to die either.>

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Abraxas mind shrugs.

[Empiricist]

[To: Abraxas] <やれやれ... now when I look back on my past romantic interests, it just seems to be a series of attempts to gain some meaning, even if it is dependent on others. *sigh* How can I somehow be optimistic AND nihilistic? But I digress. I asked my question, so I'll bid my adieu for now before I grind away your hospitality.>
Cyrielle closes the channel and lies down to have a nap.

[Empiricist]

Cyrielle checks if Annie is back and if Gaiden got updated.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Annie is collapsed on the couch, snoring.

[Empiricist]

Cyrielle walks over to her and carries her to bed before putting some blankets on her. She checks up on Wheatley.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Wheatley is also collapsed on the bed next to Annie's, snoring.

[Empiricist]

Cyrielle tucks him in as well and chuckles, her usual subtle scowl replaced with a smile for a brief instant. Cyrielle goes to bed as well.

<Ow. Ow. OW! Okay, okay!
That was weird. There was a UAV in the house. On the other hand I now want to raid a military base for spare parts.>

((FTFY.))

((Hey what are the odds of me being able to steal spare UAVs from a military base?))

((I'd say slim to felony.))

<No just in general. Actually I think we could steal from a military base if we planned it out. Get Will to make the plan and then the rest of us on different jobs... We could steal a jet! Or we could just rob a bank.>

<Not unless we had a really good reason. My criminal record's clean so far, I'm not interested in risking that for no reason.>

<Being a really good guy doesn't pay bills and my only marketable skill is my ability to make things most people wouldn't dream of. Can anyone give me a reason not to plan a bank robbery and be set for life?>

<You could just as easily get a contract for a few dozen units of powered armor with some government or another and be set for life. If you want to be villainous, you could sell them to a terrorist organization instead. Besides, banks only have 40 to 50 grand cash, tops, at any given time.>

<She's just in a surprisingly uneventful crossover. She should be back soon.>

((I'm out of ideas for what to happen on the ship right now and waiting for night to come before the next idea I've had can be implemented. Or maybe just a timeskip to when the ship arrives in Australia in a couple days.))

<Iris headquarters in a massive vault made to withstand a nuclear impact that's buried under the very bottom most level of the compound locked with a combination and key only members of my family have access to. And in their safety deposit box.>

<You know, all this talk of robberies makes me want to try breaking into that...Kyle, would you say that you are representative of your family?>

<You aren't understanding this. Not even Void himself is allowed in. That's how protected it is. It even has a nuclear explosive device in it that's triggered upon a person that isn't allowed in stepping on the ground. It has as much money in there as it cost to build.>

<That is impractical on so many levels.>

<I suppose all those systems are deterrence measures to ensure that rather than true protection mechanisms.>

<Not very effective deterrence...Finding out about all of them makes me want to break in more.>

[USEC_OFFICER]

"Hm... I always be 2... but I should be twee!" Meme holds up 3 claws.

"That is... nice." Qi hesitantly pats Meme on the head.

[kj1225]

<Go right ahead if you can find it.>

Alternate Kyle continues looking for someone to talk to so he can start the plot.
