what is msmc? im kinda out of the loop

Huh, I guess we never really explained that too well in our intro post, did we. Welp! Doesn't hurt to educate the newbies.

According to the Lancer Core Rulebook, pg. 411:

"A pan-galactic mercenary organization known for its low rates, broad portfolio, and civic legitimization service, the Mirrorsmoke Mercenary Company (MSMC) is formally incorporated as a “grayspace” private military company. No job is too big or too small, as long as a Union state in good standing will call it legal."

In short, there are a whole bunch of mercenary companies scattered across the world of Lancer, and MSMC is one of the larger ones (referred to in the Core Rules as a "notable non-state actor" - i.e., a smaller company than the Big 4 and Union that is nevertheless widely known across the galaxy). Best known for its terrifying legal teams and reputation as the "garbage men of the galaxy", MSMC is the company you call when nobody else will do your job for you.

There are 999 mercenary squadrons employed under MSMC, each with a numerical designation and a few nicknames apiece. This blog catalogues the adventures of MSMC-796 "Heaven's Fury", consisting of the mercenaries Angel (that's me!), Slipshod, and Lockbreaker. By association, we've kind of become the de facto voice of MSMC among the Lancer community on Tumblr, though there are other MSMC-affiliated blogs out there if you poke around a bit.

As of our interactions with them, MSMC-796 has made good friends with a fanmade mercenary group known as CORSAIR Mercenary Company, or CMC (found at @corsair-mc-official). The Core Rules list a few other named mercenary companies from the world of Lancer, such as The Golden Hand and Goblin Throne Industrial (GTI), but to our current knowledge, neither of these companies have an official Omninet (that is, Tumblr) account just yet.

So yeah, that's us! Hopefully this helped explain some things.

For that prompt list

❝  no,  i’m not okay.  nothing is okay.  it never is.  but that’s just how i function most days.  so i’ll be fine.  ❞

For any pairing you'd think fit!

I considered doing a platonic pairing, but I decided I was going to be predictable and basic instead, and go with the brainrot: Annette Trevelyan/Cullen Rutherford. Thank you so much for the ask from this prompt list! I had fun mulling this one over! :D

~~~

He should be grateful Annette cares enough to fret over his health, but really, Cullen just wants to snarl at her.

No, tea will not help. Yes, he's tried potions. They take the edge off but do little else, and he's already taken one. No, he hasn't eaten, and yes, that's because he can't.

Maker, he has no idea how she even knew to appear.

Annette at least thought to bring a bowl of conjured ice, and the cold numbs some of the pain arcing through his skull. That, he's grateful for.

Still.

"What do you want me to say?" he hisses, gratefulness completely nonexistent within his tone. "That I'll be alright? That'll be fine? I won't be-- and there's nothing you or anyone else can do."

She's completely unruffled by his temper, likely reading it as the outlet of pain that it is. Or, and this is more likely, he admits to himself, she's unbothered because they've said far worse to each other.

Void, he'd called her a naive coward who cared only for the lives of her fellow highborn.

In comparison, his temper now is downright friendly.

The pain he's accepted. The inability to get to his desk and get work done? Not so much. They'd been victorious at adamant, but the destruction of Jader two weeks ago had cut their celebrations short.

Cullen should be working. He should be at the war council aiding in organizing relief efforts. He should be deploying soldiers to contain the wretched red lyrium infested undead streaming out of the ruined city.

Instead he's in bed, unable to get up, the inquisitor having abandoned her own efforts to sit beside him.

The migraine is easier than the guilt.

"Jader is more important," he manages, when Annette says nothing in response to his temper. She remains placid, and the only hints of emotion he can decipher are concern and worry. Annette only wears her silver half mask in Orlais, but she doesn't need it to be unreadable.

It's damned frustrating sometimes.

She removes her hand from the bowl of ice sitting in her lap and presses the backs of her freezing fingers to his temple. Maker, it feels good. He almost misses her quiet words when she finally speaks

"Josephine and I have reached out to contact who we can, and have audited our finances to secure what funding we can for relief. Leliana still lacks solid reporting on the extent of the damage, and so we have enlisted the aid of our wardens in additional scouting. There is little more we can do from here at present. Should we rush in, we risk poisoning our own people and undermining our ability to save who we can."

She's right. He knows she's right. It still feels wrong, to know the city is gone and yet lie here. He should be there. Or he feels he should be there. The red lyrium choking the air and strangling the water supplies make any incursions dangerous.

It was wonderful, truly, how red lyrium kept getting worse.

Cullen sighs.

She hasn't said it outright-- that's not her way-- but he hears it all the same. Annette has no plans to leave him be. The cold radiating from her fingers makes him more amenable to the idea. Slightly.

But something curdles in his gut at appearing so weakened before her. He's her commander. He should be stronger than this. Before Adamant, he might have said it was only his professional pride at stake.

He's not so sure now.

He shoves the feelings he refuses to name away.

She certainly won't return them, and they have larger issues to deal with. The loss of Jader, one of Celene's strongholds, had inspired Gaspard to march his troops into the Exalted Plains in an attempt to seize the Citadelle du Corbeau.

Because they'd needed the civil war to get even bloodier, of course.

It's tactically sound. Celene has to pivot to deal with refugees, and the loss of financial and martial backers, and if the Citadelle is seized, Gaspard can control trade up and down the river, further putting Orlais under his power.

It's a damning choice, though.

There are Orlesian refugees now fleeing to Ferelden, where the fighting in the hinterlands has already strained the throne and its resources. People needed aid and Gaspard saw only a chance at power.

Fucking nobles.

He shouldn't sympathize with the Freemen of the Dales, not openly, but damn it all if he doesn't understand them.

His headache intensifies. He turns his head slightly, pushing harder against her hand, greedily trying to reclaim the now-fading sensation. Annette shifts a little closer, the headboard creaking slightly where she leans against it, and she rolls an ice cube in her other hand.

Cullen knows, in a distantly factual sort of way, that she raised her younger siblings after the death of her own mother. It's a little less distant now, given the way she's currently fussing over his health. He can easily imagine her with a young child.

Perhaps too easily.

He returns to a safer subject, one less unsettling and easier to discuss.

"It's not always this bad-- the lyrium, I mean," he says. "I can live with it."

Her eyes narrow just a hair, almost imperceptible, but he's been learning how to read the subtleties that make up her expressions, and he catches it. She wants to push back and try to fix this, and he sees the moment she accepts she can't.

Annette's head drops slightly, her eyes skittering away from him to traverse the room around them. "If you require solitude, I can grant that," she says, and for the first time, she looks uncertain.

Well, she looks calm, actually.

But he can see her hesitation underneath the mask she presents. Cullen mirrors it, because five minutes prior, he'd wanted her to leave, but now he second-guesses. Especially if she takes the ice with her. He doesn't think she will, but he tells himself the loss of the ice isn't something he can risk.

"Stay."

[shut-up-rabert]

Nah bruh this bitch really asked me why India was discriminating in taking muslim immigrants from the three countries covered in CAA (Pak, Bangla and Afg) and how it shows Islamophobia. So let me clear it up once and for all:

->It’s not Islamphobic to take only minorities under the threat for their identity but not majority because they aren’t.

-> It’s not islamophobic to not give shelter to people who are in no urgent need of it but rather fleeing poverty because as sad as it is , you yourself have millions suffering from it and will be unable to help these people, given that this criteria will have large numbers immigrating.

-> It’s not islamophobic because India isn’t required to fend for these people. The moment the two countries seperated and they chose to migrate because of their religion or whatever, they became their government’s responsibility. Their governments and ours haven’t been same for ages. The country they hold citizenship for is the one that is to fend for them.

-> It’s not Islamophobic to not want religious majority of a country based on theocracy because that country was made for them and they made the conscious choice to establish that place and live there. Minorities were offered choice to join India Back then and now again because yes while they made the choice aswell, they can be killed if they stay there while the majority will be.

->It’s not Islamophobic the same way its not Hinduphobic to not take Nepalese Hindus or Budhhistphobic to not take Lankans.

->It’s not Islamophobic because Miss girl they literally seperated from us to have exclusively muslim nations they don’t just get to uno reverse it per convinience?

-> It’s not Islamophobic to not want people enroaching you still after having taken desired land and resources from you, because they are not your problem anymore, and they made that choice.

[neptune432]

no joke, people need to start paying more attention to the political situation in india. it's not as bad as the genocides elsewhere (yet) but the situation with muslims is growing worse every day. and honestly, though they hate muslims and sc/st the most, other religious minorities will probably get targeted as well.

besides indian political issues not getting seen in the west, what examples of indian politics they DO see are heavily tainted. here's a new example:

I imagine they changed it so they wouldn't get harassed by BJP followers. it's cowardice but nothing new either. this is also why I hate RRR since it was a soft propoganda movie that favored hindutva facism, but people in the west didn't know and that was frustrating to see.

What is the CAA law of India in simple language

Estimated reading time: 3 minutes You might already have heard about this in the news. Right now this is quite the topic that is being covered almost in all the platforms. Online and Offline. However, in certain places, I find it very hard to comprehend. And in certain places, it is just too technical even to understand. In this article, I will explain the CAA law of India in simple language so…

i saw a fuckass tiktok with an elderly israeli couple (older than the terror state itself) and all the comments just went along the lines of omg naur leave them alone how is anything their fault like ppl cant help being born there and its not like israeli citizens want a war and theyre just in love boooobooo boo boooo this cute #coquette couple makes me unable to discern the complicity in colonial violence and im really fucking brainless!!!.!.! mind you the account was run by an idf terrorist #girlboss as literal propaganda and she kept spreading her zionist crap in the comments

[the-peruvian-whovian]

I think about this tiktok daily. Clio explains how she deprogrammed from the propaganda she received in Hebrew school by realizing that the key to Zionist propaganda—convincing Jewish people that they are safer in Israel than as a minority anywhere else—is fundamentally wrong. There are few places more dangerous for Jewish people to live than on contested land where they are subject to violent pushback and rocket airstrikes, where they have to routinely go to bunkers, where they are conscripted into the military as a matter of course. The propaganda's purpose is to convince people that this is somehow the safest situation a Jewish person can ask for.

And that's when I realized with no small amount of horror that Jewish death is part of the design of the Israeli government's settler-colonial war machine. Convince civilians to move into warzones and settle on stolen land, use the inevitable deaths as a reason to escalate military tactics against Palestinian civilians indiscriminately. And they accuse the other side of being the only ones that use human shields and human sacrifices?

Both Jews and Palestinians are being sacrificed for Israel's settler-colonialist vision. (I know these are not mutually exclusive categories but I will express it as such for these purposes). The ongoing destruction by the Israeli government and military must be stopped. Lift the siege.

i mean to be clear i think we can all agree it is bad when civilians die. however the israeli state's policies as a settler-colonial genocidal project means that for decades it has been constructing a situation where it is impossible for palestinians to fight back against daily brutal violence without israeli civilians being caught in the crossfire so i think if you are upset about those deaths you should take it up with the government that built cities and invited settlers onto recently stolen land and then committed indiscriminate massacres against the people it was stolen from for decades. but of course most of the people handwringing about israeli civilians are not actually concerned with human life--or if they are, not with a worldview that recognizes palestinians as human

Gotta love how people immediately change their tune when it comes to delhi riots.

At first they are like “Hindus are killing muslims reeee” but when you tell them who it was that pelted stones at a pro caa gathering first, attacked and killed people first and even mutilated and killed hindu civilians nearby they suddenly go “but that doesn’t make them innocent! Both were at fault!” Lmaoooooo

That’s not the fucking point, of course the hindus who killed people in any way other than self defense are at fault. My point here wasn’t that, it was showing that you are a piece of shit who will hold hindus fully accountable for a violence they did not start but can’t do the same for anti CAA protestors who did start it.
