If you want more full transparency: please do leave the line to Aviva open!

It almost didn't go this way. Aviva and I posted at same time- hers blocked mine when I submitted. I initially gave my update (same lines) to Roger, but changed it once she'd spoken to you and we'd established the comms.

Twas fate! Aviva knew she needed to post at just that moment to make what you were doing match what you really did.

Can someone on the pixie dust team please tell me where you're trying to go so I can get you there?

I'm enjoying the banter, but I'm also not sure what you're trying to do right now, is all.

Roger's under the impression the group still needs to get away so would have team pixie cover them until their vehicles make for exsilium

Ok, so your plan is to provide close air support (or at least overwatch) for the humans as they make their way to the Exsilium vehicles, pile in, and head back to Hevetplata per Billy/Architect orders, and be available to assist if the mob does catch up or something else happens.

Got it, I'll process that and spit out an update here in a little bit.

Yeah, don't want anyone pulling a sneaky and clobbering the disadvantaged if we take our eyes off 'em too soon.

Right.  My understanding is the not-spaceship is MUCH faster than either our injured/fleeing comrades or the pursuing Joss bullies so we can effectively remain in the air until we see where we need to react to.

Clarification for Roger: when I say the humans are heading to the Invictus encampment, I'm referring to the place Briggs et al parked their vehicles. Recall that the soldiers are in fact aligned with Invictus :)

Ah, my misread. Seemed to me they were heading back to Invictus proper.

Let's have Billy get through to Roger so he's got reason to come back. 'Nough dilly dally for now, he was chasing what's probably a red herring.

Re: OOC Discussion #6

If Roger shows up and tells Billy that Briggs isn’t coming we’re just going to go there anyway.  If team exilium shows up and makes demands of the invictus crew it honestly might go better since they don’t have any direct knowledge/edict about the trial so they can’t really be accused if witness tampering.

In reply to Billy Laser Fist (msg # 977):

If you want, I can handwave a few things to move things along a bit.

We can have Team Exsilium reach the Great Lift and tell Billy that Invictus isn't with them and/or Roger went to go look into that.

Or we can have Roger come in for a landing with the same message.

Or whatever else you may want to do here to handle it.

Either way, no rolls required. There's no landmines between Wren's convoy and the Great Lift to worry about, metaphorical or otherwise.

Now that the team is together, and for context on interactions, neither Aviva nor Frank (to my knowledge) has any idea what the hell Billy or the rest of his team are talking about.

From our perspective, a diplomatic mission was broken down by violence from warring factions that seem to have nothing to do with us and Billy's objectives have never been made clear.

Re: OOC Discussion #6

From Billy’s perspective all of humanity (at least on this planet) is on trial after being framed by said warring factions and Frank and Aviva were directly involved in one of the inciting incidents.  Their apparent disinterest in their own presumed guilt is at least odd to him.

Further, while the invictus group’s goal was made pretty explicit early, Frank, Aviva and the Exilium group’s goals in general are just as opaque to Billy.  He assumes they likewise came on some diplomatic mission, but after the diplomacy broke down they didn’t seem to take that to be a problem they needed to solve so I’m genuinely unsure what’s driving them.

Excellent point.  I'm hoping we can address some of this while Abraxas is underway

In reply to Aviva (msg # 985):

Again, in Billy’s mind we are all on team humans at least until the aliens agree we are not here to destroy their society.  Splitting the party is an acceptable tactic when we’re this big.  Also mixing his NPCs with your NPCs ensures at least someone he trusts is involved in all the doings. that’s how invictus went rogue, all the good NPCs just left them to their own devices
