And to think of all the times I've moonlighted in the amateur gelatin wrestling circuit without any sort of charitable cause to champion.

I get the sneaking suspicion that my mother would be rather disappointed if I didn't go, so I will be there.

I will do my best to be there, I will be attending a lecture on modern interpretations of the Scripture beforehand, if this has completed in time for me to be present I shall root for the underdog...you better win Ava.

Damn if I knew how Pieter got to be so fortunate to take part in this..

I'll certainly be watching this one and supporting a great cause.

Just letting you all know, Divinity's Edge is almost always open. The place is mostly a baseliner spot for clubbing on the Avenue, but eggers are welcome as long as they don't cause trouble or pull any 'I am superior to you' crap.

Otherwise, feel free to chill out, dance, whatever, til the event.

Of course, something like this occurs when I'm out on exercises. I swear the cluster is conspiring to bore me to death or something.

Am I the only one who thinks Ava could use some backup?

You didn't miss much, other than an assassination attempt on her life.

An assassination attempt, Cetes? On whose part? I can only assume that this interrupted the wrestling, but that no lives were lost -- save perhaps the assassin's.

The Assassin was indeed killed, though not before he had fired barbs laced with neurotoxin at Ava and Pieter..both of whom were extracted from the club by medical personal in critical conditions.

One can only pray they recover.

Do we have any information on whom (if anybody) the assassin was working for and why they attempted this?

Clever publicity stunt, that. Just the kind of thing that rakes in ISK and interest in one's charity drive.

Or very fickle assassin.

I missed it, pre-occupied with my duties. But seriously.

This is starting to turn into a sick joke. Every time someone does anything in order to do some good for anyone, something happens to ruin it, or attempt to ruin it.

All the damned time. Can we not have a single light-hearted, positive event or intention without some pitiable scum arriving with the intentions of ruining everything?

Well, the whole event was meant to raise funds for the victims of the Caille incident. Somewhat ironic to see it end in a similar way; with a lone gunman with nothing to lose. Misery loves company, I guess.

In any case, I'd like to thank the host for a quite enjoyable, if somewhat tacky show, and wish all wounded in the incident a quick recovery.

It isn't often that I find myself agreeing with Pilot BloodBird but if the alleged assassination attempt turns out to be genuine, then I endorse this message wholly.

A sad turn of events, in which I mirror captain Bloodbird's feelings. Who is in charge of the investigation? Does this fall under CONCORD jurisdiction, being pod pilots as they are, or is it a matter to be handled by the Gallente police force due to it happening planetside?

Perhaps we should now have a fundraiser to pay for Pieter's medical expenses?

Oh the irony.

Pilot Starfire is alive and recovering.

For those of you suggesting that this assassination attempt was a "publicity stunt", you either don't know Ava, or you're begging for a clan blood writ against you. Either way: be careful.

This is a profoundly disturbing act, one that has shaken Ava's brothers and sisters in Gradient and the Electus Matari. Regardless of who leads up the investigation, we will follow the trail to its source and punish those responsible.

Your petulance is noted.

Regardless, I will be sending my contribution to the Shaman at my earliest convenience.

Hello everyone;

I just wanted to write with an update. We have been able to prevent substantial diffusion of the neurotoxin through the blood/brain barrier, so it is expected that both will emerge unscathed. Normally we would find the peripheral neuron damage to be a serious trauma, but due to the patients' abilities to migrate to a new clone, we are not considering this a debilitating effect at this time.

Pilot Starfire suffered the worst effects, and has been given a full transfusion of synthetic plasma. She's currently undergoing deep tissue treatments to deal with static buildup in interstitial pockets.

Pilot Tuulinen suffered only mild effects. He has undergone plasma dialysis and is currently undergoing the same deep tissue treatments.

We are expecting a full recovery in short order for all affected parties.
