Petra doesn't quite exit the ship yet, instead speaking to the AI. "Sepia, you said your name was? I think you mentioned a base-building function at some point? What was that about?"

[SOLDIER First]

"That, uh, Kren guy is still asleep...
Wait, we're on Earth now, right?"

[kj1225]

"Sounds racist as well. Besides, don't you have family to go home to? Don't OTHER people have families that don't need you starting some war over a shitty kidnapping attempt?"

[smurfingtonthethird]

"I'm too young for the military, not to mention part of the arcane community. I would if I could, but a sword can only get you so far.

But a Layar prisoner and the fact I'm a billion miles from home are pretty strong pieces of evidence. We beat the Layar before, we can do it again."

"Sounds racist as well. Besides, don't you have family to go home to? Don't OTHER people have families that don't need you starting some war over a shitty kidnapping attempt?"

"Nope, missing or dead during the first Layar war. Such a lovely reminder you just gave me. And this shitty kidnapping attempt is obviously more than just that, you should know that much at least."

[Akroma]

"That excuse just made me throw up in my mouth a bit."

Petra doesn't quite exit the ship yet, instead speaking to the AI. "Sepia, you said your name was? I think you mentioned a base-building function at some point? What was that about?"

"Indeed I did! Currently I can only build bunkers, but I think my programming has room for additional upgrades to it. I also have enough materials on board to build a bunker with a mess hall, twenty personal rooms, a living room, a community bathroom, and either a Gym, a Computer Room, or a workshop. I'll leave it up to vote."

[kj1225]

"Ah, apologizes. But stop being such a tumblr user about it. Hell, you're ready to go to war with a faction that has more evidence towards being peaceful over what one ship did."

[Twinwolf]

"Oh, you expect us to stay here? I mean, I wouldn't mind- not like I have anywhere else to go- but some of us have lives that we want to get back to."
Is this where the AI overlords take over?
You watched too many robot movies when you got here.

Sen speaks up finally, "And who would you tell to start a war? The goverement? Probably in the hands of the Layar. Conspiracy theorists? No one believes them anyways. You are but a single man. You are unimportant to the rest of the world who is gathering tech from the Layar. For all we know it's just this one fleet that wanted to conquer our world. We have no evidence except a crippled prisoner who, might I add, could be cause to have all of us killed. I'm with Petra. We need a place to store him..."

"I could convert some of the personal rooms into a jail."

[smurfingtonthethird]

"That excuse just made me throw up in my mouth a bit."

"Tell me, then, what should I do? I'm starting this fucking war, one way or another."

"Ah, apologizes. But stop being such a tumblr user about it. Hell, you're ready to go to war with a faction that has more evidence towards being peaceful over what one ship did."

"They invaded us four years ago, and retreated for seemingly no reason. I'm pretty sure our cloudrippers are still ready to fire."

"I'm on Earth. I wasn't supposed to come back here, but here I am. I'm sure my disappearance has cooked up a shitstorm already."

[Twinwolf]

"...That didn't answer my question, unless you're forcing all of us to stay."

[Akroma]

"I think on a final note, the layar were defeated by just a small group of magic users. I saw some of them on an interview. They're not much older than any of us. That's what they are afraid of, not tanks of rockets. Don't get regular soldiers involved...they're the ones who are not walking home from this kind of war."

[SOLDIER First]

" Okay, Sepia person or thing, whoever's in charge of this stuff, is there a way to.. wake Kren up? To question him?"

[kj1225]

"They got defeated. Seems like a good enough reason to me."

[IamanElfCollaborator]

"H-Have you considered t-this was just....y-you know, not...what's the word....sanctioned by the people in charge of the Layar?"
Emilia holds up a finger, interjecting in the conversation.
