and this is bad…very very bad…
in other news: we see the true usefullness of the Star Org
September 12th, 2010 at 12:08 am
Well now. This should be interesting.

@nikolai60: There suppose to have a whole platoon in this chapter, our dear author cannot wait forever before put a situation where they will be required again.

Oh snap, kupo, and snarfer! If this doesn’t turn out to be the LAST ep they ever do, it will sure be the last one they broadcast LIVE ON AIR!
…wait…
Diamand Saw form requires nanites (and oversoul). Glitter IS nanites. A lot of disposable extras are about to so swimming in a pool of glitter and may perhaps knock Jigsaw in as well….
Kupo! Kupo kupo KUPO! *Bangs head agenst desk*

@Ken_Cypher: Whatever Do You Mean, Sir?
There Are No Problems Here.
Move Along Now, And Have A Nice Day.
(Side note: hooray for cameos!! After a lot of RL craziness going on over on this side, this was an awesome surprise!)

Oh dear…one might hope that Veled *is* still lurking around some place. Even if she does tend to go for the ‘tough love’ solution if people are *lucky*.
September 12th, 2010 at 1:23 pm
O_O Uh oh, this just went downhill fast!
September 12th, 2010 at 4:23 pm
@StringPetounPing dear lord a whole platoon? if a few caused so much trouble before, what will happen with a platoon….
also, idiot me must have been REALLY tired last night: congrats on the latest additions to the cameo list ^_^

Next heard on Last Res0rt: “There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission…”

Question: If speakers mangle tones (except the special ones), why are the star org people in the room Cypress is viewing from affected? Are they close enough to hear the actual tone?
September 12th, 2010 at 9:40 pm
@Noxkitsune you missed what they were talking about. those speakers are apparently designed to carry tones, and Cy and her troopers have set up shop in a ‘protected’ part of the ship.
September 12th, 2010 at 10:30 pm
i just thought of something…the tones look like they’re coming out in another language, i understand people being compelled to obey, but how do you obey a command in a language you don’t understand? or do all the Star Org as well as Cy understand that?
September 12th, 2010 at 11:51 pm
@nikolai60 — I think it’s meant to be a ‘you-hear-it-in-your-head-in-your-own-language’ kind of thing.
Either that, or there’s a second galactic Lingua Fraca aside from English/Common/Whathaveyou.
September 13th, 2010 at 1:37 am
@Ken_Cypher: That’s a recipe for instant awesome! Just add Jigsaw. Cook until you see wings.
@nikolai60: I bet Noir’s right about the universality of Toning. The Celeste probably wouldn’t want anything to get lost in translation.
Now I’d really like to know what language that writing’s in. I thought it was just the Higher Calling, but it was written on the corridor wall earlier, so it must be legible to the ship’s inhabitants. Maybe it’s just the alphabet for Galactic English Terth.
Here’s the message:
“DROP YOUR WEAPONS. YOU ARE PERFORMING AN ILLEGAL ACTION AND
MUST CEASE IMMEDIATELY.TURN YOURSELF IN. WHEN YOU APPROACH
THE FORCES, STRIP YOURSELF OF ALL WEAPONS AND CLOTHING, AND
ASSUME THE PARTY ESCORT SUBMISSION POSITION SO WE CAN SAVE YOU.”
Here’s hoping White can get things under control before someone completes all of the instructions!
September 13th, 2010 at 12:23 pm
@Sulucamas Well, given that some wouldn’t mind letting them get through the ‘Strip all weapons and clothing’ part first..
September 13th, 2010 at 3:50 pm
Uh-Oh… I wonder if dragons are immune to whatever-the-heck that stuff is. I dun wanna be wash-brained!
September 14th, 2010 at 12:14 am
Pear shaped now fails to describe the situation.
September 14th, 2010 at 3:36 am
@TomRedlion Wahooni-shaped more like by now.
September 14th, 2010 at 12:13 pm
Meanwhile, given the combination of ‘forcefield’ and ‘walk’, I’m very much hoping this setting doesn’t share a habit of the Star Wars and Trek ones where they tend to use ‘permeable shields’ instead of or in addition to airlock doors…
September 15th, 2010 at 2:01 pm
@Vulpis: Ya mean like this? http://www.lastres0rt.com/2008/09/and-still-no-george-lucas-love-story/
With that fancy glitter pool, it seems like the “SAVE YOU” part of the message might turn out to be misleading…
September 15th, 2010 at 10:00 pm
@Sulucamas: “SAVE YOU” can also mean store you in some way for later use.
Ask a canned salmon what it thinks of the way it was “saved”.
September 15th, 2010 at 10:52 pm
@hartree: Doh! XD
So who’d get to enjoy this theoretical can of salmon first? Jigsaw or Gabriel? (WTF would he even do with it?!)
September 15th, 2010 at 11:32 pm
Hear it in your own language is cool, probably that.
Also, permeable forcefields for the…is that win or fail..?
September 16th, 2010 at 10:28 am
@Vulpis: Are you thinking this’ll lead to an unintended spacewalk or a sudden loss of cabin pressure (or both!)?
In that case, permeable forcefields for the fail!
Ima guessin’ Cy is headed onto the White Diamond Crisis.
September 16th, 2010 at 10:56 pm
my theory on why its not affecting jigsaw and the others is this the speakers are still mangling the tones BUT the camera things following them are un-mangling the tones, basically the mics are taking the mangled tones and filtering them back to an understandable state(thus why jigsaw and company aren’t being affected by the spam but the others are)
September 17th, 2010 at 11:19 am
I thought they were already on the ship, but the forcefields kept them out of harms way…supposedly….
Also, maybe they’re not effected cause they’re not the targets? There’s also the “light child”/”Talim”/”Anyr” reasoning…at least partially, from the resistance traits
