The perspective of being too large to be harmed?

@Audacious

Mhm. Perhaps I'm jaded, but those that consider everything a threat typically fare much better.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

Actually yes. They prepare such immense defensive measures as a just-in-case kind of thing. Their size is a massive deterrent, and there’s not too much out there that even would threaten them. Under normal circumstances.

@Audacious

I often find that to be a dangerous perspective.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

Wars. It’s not hard to see. The IA already has reports of remote assaults on their territory. Aimed at civilian worlds no less.

@Audacious

Is that unusual for the IA?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

Emphasis on tend. But an ambition like that doesn’t mean they’re bad people, and I don’t think many deserve what’s coming.

@Audacious

*Places the stack down*
What do you anticipate is coming that would be such a disaster?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

No promise of power too perilous for the prehensile. Or something like that.

@Audacious

*Looks beneath a stack of books*
Perhaps, but those beings tend to not last long.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

I think there’s going to be plenty of participation.

@Audacious

If so, that's on them.
*Walks to a nearby table*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

I think they’ll be needed more than ever before long. This new System is bound to call for it.

@Audacious

If they choose to participate.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

I never felt like, back in the day, there were enough Tier Fours going around with stuff like that, so I made it my passion. I’d say nothing has changed in that regard.

@Audacious

Beings rarely choose that path. I agree that Existence needs more healers.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

It’s my specialty, I’d say. Not to brag.

@Audacious

I see. I had no idea.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

There’s been lots to do, thanks to the emergence of this Balkan stuff. The IA’s had me look at scouting equipment in R&D, I’ve had Cerberus private contractors want me to get their medical equipment up to snuff, I’ve had both want me to look at independent areas nearby to see if there are any shenanigans going on right on their doorstep. Plenty.

@Audacious

You're familiar with medical technology?
