I'm sure you appreciate it, though, and are quite sad about not being able to pull it off.


It's no longer down to me to pull it off.

As I said in our redeployment announcement, I have complete confidence that those still in the 24th IC have the ability to crush the Shakorites.

You have so much confidence in them, that you are leaving them to do the dirty work, while you search greener pastures. That amount of confidence and courage is rather admirable.


The only thing that's dirty about the work of the 24th IC is the Minmatar prisoners who need to be made to take a shower.

I suppose. I had an itch built up about so called "loyal" capsuleers abandoning the Empire in its dire straits, and I needed it scratched. That felt good.

We're not abandoning the Empire. We're refocusing our efforts towards other threats that we have neglected for too long.

So if you have an itch, it must be something else that's causing it. I can send you some de-lousing powder if you like. It might be worth a try*.

Oh, you.

"Reprioritization" or not, you should try to see it from my perspective: the 24IC desperately needs allies now, and that is when PIE leaves? I suppose you have your reasons, but to someone who regrets every single Amarr leaving 24IC... well, it's still sad.

It was a little childish Blake, but never mind.

on a related note, your signature.

I believe that in your opinion it is very much a sweet and seemly thing. Though i note that you appear to be having some trouble in that department.
for the sake of all concerned, and your very soul, may i suggest that you hurry the hell up and get round to it?
if you could take the rest of PIE with you, that would be much appreciated, hey, why not go with a bang and take all of CVA?

On the contrary, there are quite a few of my corpses out there. I believe that in the past some of them have even changed hands in return for ISK.

My preliminary hearing before the CONCORD board of inquisition is complete, and the consensus seems to be "evidence is circumstantial at best, heresay at worst."

In short, I didnt do any of the things I am supposed to have done, and it warms the heart to have so many speak well of me.

Also.

I have dyed my hair back to black, so, with my blessing, sell all the "Ava Starfire cuddle dolls" you can!

Thank you all, Avlynka Surionen

Why would they need allies ? What would they have to lose ? Trade advantages on navy modules and ships ?

Normally I'd be sarcastic and accuse the Amarr of being greedy bastards, so I'd say yes, but now there is also actual sovereignty at stake. I wonder what Lord Vaari's reaction to Sosan being forever lost to the Minmatar will be, and whom he will hold responsible. Oh, and honor. The Amarr care about that, right?

Really though, I think they need allies so I have more of them to kill. But don't tell them I said that, kay?

I for one am sorely disappointed.

Earlier in this thread I took my cuddly doll and dyed her hair white.

NOW I FIND OUT THAT SHE'S CHANGED IT BACK.

Godsdammit.

Perhaps I shall contract it to Blake. It sounds like getting hold of one of these dolls is the only way he might beat Ava . . .

If only we could fall into a woman's arms

without falling into her hands

You mean cuddle. We all know that's what he wants to, and the doll is even made for it.

You're saying that the worst that could happen is that Vaari is made unhappy?

Things are going better than I anticipated!

But seriously, we're a corporation with fewer than forty members. PIE members are amongst the best pilots there are, but there are hundreds of excellent pilots left inside the militia. A lot of them are PIE alumni. They are more than capable of defending against the Shakorite horde.

Meanwhile, what about the Sani Sabik? What about the Sansha? What about the unaffiliated pirates that threaten trade and commerce in the Empire? What about the integrity of the Empire's other borders?

Yes, we care about honour. That's why we refuse to lose it by neglecting our other responsibilities.

You owe no one an explanation, Ava. Your friends don't require it and your enemies won't believe it anyway.

He's hilarious when he's mad. And I don't mean in the 'insane' sense of 'mad', he's already nuts by most standards.

Most people would claim that the opposite is true, namely that the Amarrian forces of freedom from barbarism are on the back foot against the legions of Shakorite oppressors.

Of course, most people don't appreciate the strategy of sucking an opponent into your territory to stretch his supply lines before cutting him off from his means of retreat and crushing him.


(Sigh...)

Blake?

Believe me, you'll be a lot happier.
