(well, since west is still absent, i'm going to assume jessica and whoever else is there grabbed someone's hand) *alex and rakesh both focus and an intense warmth surrounds them, then suddenly everyone experiences the wonderful sensation of being forced through a toothpaste tube for a brief moment as a veil of fire fills…
(hey, he's going at the speed of a cheetah and it's not a straight shot - GIVE HIM SIX MINUTES!) *alex and rakesh suddenly pop up silently behind nick just after he finishes speaking* okay, we can teleport now - everyone place a convenient appendage on some part of either of us
borg BoPs in cure space still outnumber sphere HP by almost 2x...frigates having almost twice the amount of HP a cruiser has - yeah, figure that one out
*alex suddenly takes off like a bottle rocket, bounding on all fours across the rocky ground and quickly vanishing from sight with nary a sound aside from the whistling of displaced air, rakesh right behind him*
(it's a werewolf comic, ironically enough - one about a town of werewolves where they can be themselves without having nasty humans constantly barking at them like the protagonist did in the first few pages as the tagline says 'Werewolves hang out and have pizza just like everyone else.' i stumbled across it early last…
oh, yuck...*alex mutters to himself and hunches down, preparing to break out into a full-on sprint* (also...you'd think someone would've asked by now)
alex: i'll run up...with everything that's happened to us lately, it's been too long since i've had a proper one...far too long *rakesh looks over with concern in his eyes and voice* when was the last you went through Theriolus Instigata? alex: as i said, brother...far too long - i missed last full moon's cycle rakesh: as…
alex: and what makes you think those spikes would even be able to convert you? all those quintillions of little TRIBBLE rushing through your veins are virulent little buggers - they can fight off almost anything
alex: i've reached into the bowels of perdition and raised souls from the pit once or twice - not really a very good analogy to use around me for something impossible
alex: i've read the reports on what those spikes do - it's just nanotech, like the borg use - and like borg nanotech, it can be reversed...ANYTHING short of death can be reversed - and even that can be reversed through some means
some non-carriers can deploy frigate pets as well, though...any ship with a hangar can deploy yukawa frigates - that they are still total TRIBBLE is beside the point also, the romulan drones, baltim frigates, plesh brek frigates, elachi qulash frigates, vanguard gunships, krenim heavy raiders, sphere builder arehbes…
they had already put in large amounts of discovery content long before the S2 finale aired and that lockdown on speaking of discovery, her crew, her tech, the mycelial network went into effect...you can't close pandora's jar (yes, it was actually a jar and not a box) after it's been opened
alex: i COULD head back up to my ship and call for an orbital drop of tracker bikes - not sure i'd trust something that fast in these tight confines, though...well, i'd be able to manage it with me because i have enough reflex to be able to handle sudden sharp turns or outcroppings...it's just the rest of you i'm worried…
no, i absolutely WOULD say - and then follow through with action if the behavior continued - that to an adult; act like a childish brat, get treated - and punished - like one
(all tribbles are born pregnant, so i don't think any of them are 'he's...unless they're hermaphrodites or they swap genders on the fly) alex: i could try to take us all directly there and avoid the walking...but i would need a clear enough picture of the terrain to avoid apparating anyone halfway into a cliff or a…
