matt: i've been waiting for you to come up with something! and waiting for jakara to bring the star back...i hope those alterations don't actually change the star's appearance, because that'll be hard to explain away
(that better not be a jab at me for that time matt blasted 'faith of the heart' over the comm system when the lexington left drydock that one time...)
not only that, but the J was meant to be a galactic explorer...so where the hell is the federation presence in other galaxies and why aren't they shipping dilithium from any of those? everything said about the burn so far seems to indicate it was confined to the milky way
that's why i started the topic - i was trying to think of what name cryptic might use for a T6 version when it occurred to me...steamrunner doesn't actually MEAN anything i even tried to look on urban dictionary to see if it was slang for something, and no results that i could find
i don't think you CAN knock out a singularity, at least not safely, because the only way to collapse one is to stop feeding it matter and let it bleed off hawking radiation...of course, when it finally DOES collapse, it goes off like a nuke
matt: well, it's already been tinkered with to both allow it to hold black souls as well as cut it off from azura - like every daedric artifact dad's ever picked up to prevent them being yeeted back to oblivion...when you've got them on display in a museum, it wouldn't do to have half your exhibit suddenly go missing…
matt: i have it because dad had it, and dad had it because the dragonborn didn't want it since it was A: magical and B: a daedric artifact *he responds while opening his bag and summoning a bottle of nuka-cherry before tossing it at AU nick*
i question that, frankly...the transwarp coil voyager swiped carried them over 10,000 LY before it gave out...at no point did they say they had to keep dropping out of transwarp to avoid damage to the ship - though, maybe they did and that's WHY the coil burnt out
matt: no, but i can grab it - be right back *he opens a portal and leaps through it, coming back through a minute later clutching a circular piece of black crystal with wavy spokes jutting out of it at even points around the edge, giving it the appearance of a sun, the object thrumming with power* NOW i have it with me
matt: so has dad - he has yet to be impressed by any of them, and has actually seriously wounded or killed several over the centuries - of course, most of them were what we'd call demigods, not actual gods, so they were a fair bit weaker, and on a few of them he had help
matt: i already have a container that can be used - one strong enough to hold the soul of 'gods', so unless the one you're trying to save is even stronger than that, we're set on that end
