Question for those of you born in gravity. What does gravity feel like?

//S-R-2299\\

[violence-in-vogue]

eh, brain just flags all ips-n shit as trucker-talk

and yeah it can get boring sometimes, but I don't need to eat or drink so I can just. dick around

there's shit out here in Limbo, but it isn't colored. everything is a blank unshaded white and it all blends together. my mech and I are the only things that are visible. looking at her makes my head feel fuzzy sometimes tho, so I have to close my eyes when I climb inside lmao

anyways I'm just waiting for a past-version of me fixes the timeline and either erases me from existence or slingshots me back into reality. fuck it we ball until then

//Vogue\\

I... what in the name of the Lucky Spanner kind of hell are you caught in? The... Blank narrative void? IPS-N did not brief me on this shit what the hell?

Can... you even explain, actually nevermind for my own sanity I won't even ask.

//S-R-2299\\

TOO LATE FUCKO!!! you asked, I answer!

truckers aren't omnipotent, makes sense that nobody told you. nobody told me either! probably still would've started shit if I knew but /shrug

I ran my mouth during a canon event and broke the timeline. now I'm in Narrative Limbo and get to harass random dipshits online with basically zero consequence!

...I say "basically" because things *can* show up out here, but that's out of my control so it isn't my fault lol

congrats gamer! swarm trust is an incredible thing

I haven’t known my own swarm for nearly as long, but she’s only eaten like 30% of me, which is less than half so I think it’s ok! I think she apologized at one point too so yeah

also [VIOLENCE]’s nanites are very pretty- they look like mercury when all together, but individually they’re like little silver and teal junebugs and they’re kinda cute

… shit sorry abt talking abt my own swarm on ur post, congrats still stand, enjoy ur anniversary [partycracker.omnif]

//Vogue\\

I believe that all those who are so frightened of graywash are cowards, frankly. My beloved Ashana and I are celebrating our ten year anniversary today, and I find no fear in our relationship!

Happy anniversary, my darling beloved, and here's to another prosperous decade!

Zero~

sometimes, home is a person.

and sometimes, you just wanna burn the whole house down.

HEY THAT’S MY JOKE

//Vogue\\

How soon is too soon after a tragedy to begin making jokes about it, in the Omninet’s reckoning? I am aware that the dreadful situation with CORSAIR was quite recent but, well, inspiration is a fickle mistress!

Zero~

[violence-in-vogue]

I've had a lot of time to think in here, so lemme get a little verbose right quick:

Violence is the only constant. being in Limbo has taught me that very pointedly- seeing as she's the only visible thing in here, other than me. BUT just because it's a constant doesn't mean it has to control you. you're in a more peaceful place, so use that violence to do good.

an unchanging heart means you're familiar. going back on ideals is pussy shit. that mentality is what landed me in hell, but I'm still me despite it. I don't regret a second of anything, because me-at-the-time was sticking to his guns. you've fought like hell, Morse- and after everything, you're alive. stick to your guns.

//Vogue\\

another me still has a bet on another you

There's something scary bout sitting in her office... I mean this is where I conducted my interview to join CORSAIR, this is where I was briefed in what my job truly was.. tt.t..tt.tthh.t..t.thht...thhhh this... is the room where Anna... right.

Every order I sign, every soul I sign on.... how much different am I from her? Keep waking up thinking I'll become something worse.

We might have a new purpose but the bones of this company remain the same. Freedom from the rest of the status quo... We're still violent mercenaries at our heart.

[A flower is sent to you digitally. It clips in and out of space, its petals made of an endless, cosmic starlight. It is there, as it was tomorrow, as it will be yesterday. It blooms in endless fragments of possibility, its scent nearly impossible to describe. Still, it is reminiscent of the blood on your teeth, spitting on the ground in defiance before your next swing.

There is no signature. Only a blue heart.]

call me a freak you'd be right but blood tastes weirdly good

my eyes hurt looking at this thing... but it's so pretty. like staring at a screen for too long, but the stuff on it is your favorite show-

[COMMUNICATION ARRAY: FATAL ERROR]> Failure to establish narrative trace. Please try again later later later later later later la- [COMMUNICATION ARRAY: RESUMING TRANSCRIPTION]>

-thank you, whoever sent this thing. dunno how you got it through to me, but I'm gonna try to hold onto it as long as Limbo will let me.

//Vogue\\

Refusal to surrender. An undying resistance. Funny how stardust always comes back to me. VIOLENCE is my only constant.

[violence-in-vogue]

i think the elf ears are charming honestly. gives character.

:)

oh, I got plenty of character even when you don't count the ears >;)

just ask any other CMC merc who survived the war, someone's bound to have stories

actually, on second thought, maybe not- dunno if they'll make the timeline worse lmao

//Vogue\\

I don't want to drag them down with me.

[violence-in-vogue]

"…gamer do you have a gun to your head or some shit"

no, but you HAVE been living in my head rent free for a few days.

...does this constitute simping?

I've been sitting on this ask for a few days because it genuinely floored me

how the fuck do people find me attractive??

like, Echo and Flares back home have excuses, they've known me for ages- but y'all??? You barely even know what I look like!

...damn I miss my boyfriends

//Vogue\\

maybe that's what sends me over the edge

[violence-in-vogue]

[A note...]

"Merry Mechmas From CORSAIR! This might be early... Or late..."

[It's.... Young and Dumb? Tangibly there? And all the shit left in your bunk? Tangibly there? With even your bed TANGIBLY THERE?]

Violence is always here. She's one of the only things I can see, other than myself (and a one loaf of bread that one time)

Everything else... maybe I just found it. Maybe it found me. Maybe limbo spit it out in front of me.

Tangible doesn't mean visible, just touchable. A part of me's confused. Another part's happy to have it back. Another still hates it.

Maybe it isn't Lich tech? maybe Pegasus? possibilities?

Eh, a different me can figure that out. Fuck that noise for now- I'm using the bed.

Thanks, btw

Fair Greetings, Omninet,

Tis high time we properly introduced ourselves unto the connected masses.

We art the Crosslandic Praeseist Alliance: a unified collective of Minor Houses upon Glorious Crossland which do agree that Praeseism holds the best path forward for our fair planet. Praeseism, for the uninitiated, is a common political affiliation in the Interest. Our beliefs are simple; we wish for the Major Houses to exercise minimal control over our colonies and allow us to govern ourselves, as we know best for the common day to day legislation of the planets we do live upon. We do, however, recognize the Major Houses' (Remembrance in our case) as the superior central power, and identify not with Hagiographs who wish to dismantle them.

Among the CPA's most notable Houses are Hurst, Lenore, and Breland, three of several of our Member Houses which sit upon the Council of Thirteen. Needless to say, we art quite an influential collective upon the planet.

Any official inquiries into our fair planet and the goings on upon her may be directed to us. We art sure that as daughter and Heiress to one of our most respected Houses, @lady-rosceline-hurst shall happily welcome us unto this space.

Verily, denizens of the Omninet, may the Passions bless thee!

S-12 Vogue.... Stuck in a jail of your own making..... aehheahehhh

I watch. I watch with interest. Do you remember Voscum?

//ERERURORERREROOROERORROEOOROEOROEROOEROEOROEOEROOEROEOROEOROEROOEORREOROEROEOROOREOROEOROEOROEOROOEROOREOROEOROEORROROEOROORR\\

What happened on that video-call earlier in the month, Siggy? I thought we were friends :)

...fuck it, mask off.

I remember Voscum alright. I remember you being weird about all the time-fuckery. I remember Headlock seeing you do some sus shit with that APMS black-box. I remember Morse is up next to handle S-12.

Mad shit from someone who can't even do anything.

//Vogue\\

Part of me hopes she'll break everything.

[violence-in-vogue]

why you so ears

why aren’t you

do you think this is a normal thing to ask people

got grabbed one too many times

Tired can’t draw normal people

ooc: Nate no, you’re not supposed to do that-

don’t care, learn to not make me an elf

//Vogue\\

[violence-in-vogue]

sometimes I look over at [VIOLENCE]

she’s (usually) the only thing I can see in here

but even that’s iffy, because sometimes I can’t really get a good look

it’s like she’s not really here- or like there’s… tracing paper, almost?

several versions stacked on top of each other that I can see all at once

like an old 3d movie with the glasses off

…

after Voscum, I’m not sure if she’s alive

I know the hive is smart, but I don’t know to what extent

she answers to whistles and finger-snaps

but how much of that is programming, nanites, or something else?

//Vogue\\

——

is that how she sees me?

[violence-in-vogue]

i think you're pretty cool for what its worth.

…gamer do you have a gun to your head or some shit

that kind of talk ain’t normal around here

blink twice if you need help
