I know. Weird, huh? Almost as if we admit we are Slaves to His Vision or something. We should make a public note about that. Maybe list it in a title.

The pleasing part was that you have dispensed with the euphemism and rhetoric scattered through your previous attempts to defend Kuvakei's vision as anything less than cluster-wide enslavement to his own meglomaniac whims. It is a refreshing and welcome change.

All the defense of humanity sophistry you've carried on with in the past falls apart when it becomes clear that the man you've raised up as humanity's last great hope would torch even the most able of his loyalists for daring to assist in his force's regular operational goals.

As such, I will have to sadly turn down the kind offer of employment from Tiberious. If I am to be anyone's dog, I would prefer a master that rewards loyalty and sacrifice with a scratch behind the ear rather than a bullet.

((I will probably be back in about six months, once I'm bored of being bored of Eve.))

The State now needs all the soldiers we could get, Tuulinen-haan, gallentean opressors are still encroaching into our territory and we need to repel their occupation.
Don't leave us when the State needs you the most!

It won't be easy... But I'm sure you'll find another unrequited love someday soon. These things happen, and I feel for you. Sad

Mr. Tuulinen, I hope that this isn't a cover for a lengthy convalenscence from your test pilot assignment.

Do rest, and I hope to see you again refreshed and recharged! If you need some reading materials, I'd be happy to send you some. Just let me know and I'll contract it over.

God's Blessings, Lunarisse Aspenstar

Best of luck in your studies Tuulinen-suuolo.

Not easy to change pace from a military life, I hope it works out for you. You corporation and alliance of its members have done very well.

Thanks very much! Looking forward to maybe participating in some joint operations when I get back.

A deep pity. I hope things go well for you while planetside, Mr. Tuulinen, and I will look forward to hearing of your return.

Best wishes to you Pieter. I hope your time out of pod will be productive and enjoyable and that you will rejoin us again soon.

When the world is running down, you make the best of what's still around.

Thank you, Bella Rella, looking forward to some peace and quiet and possibly stomping a few braincells on my break.

Pieter.

I enjoy disagreeing with thoughtful people.

I will miss your voice in the Summits conversations.

Be well and hurry back.

I wish you well then Tuulinen. You always bring a good viewpoint to discussions and I always appreciate responses that are well thought out and supported. Don't get too involved with partying though. I know most educational institutions have more alcohol than the local distillery, but you don't have to drink it all.

I myself missed this announcement as I have also been away. Kraid Drive Labs is doing a redesign of our ships' propulsion systems for market and a bit of a retooling of the production facility. Spending more time in a physical office than a VR one connected to Neocom is a bit different.

It seems I've missed a few events while secluded in family life. You always have my best and most sincere wishes, Big Brother, and an open invitation to come catch up on things if you find the time.

Much love! Don't burn too many neurons. Blink
