Tomboy Orion (Big trouble in a little package)
Posted on April 21st, 2025
Because of the lockdown, I'm currently stuck cooling my heels here at Odyssey. I took a page from JMCs rulebook and literally physically disabled my ships engines, much to my daughters irritation (Ship AIs, what can you do?), just to be on the justifiably paranoid side. All my cargo has been inventoried and all customers involved have been privately notified. Most of them were pretty understanding about it.
The mood here is... interesting, to say the least. There's a pack of 'dane businessmen who keep trying to make a lot of noise about how unreasonable this all is and how they should be allowed to leave right now DON'T YOU REALISE HOW IMPORTANT THEY ARE. They're mostly getting ignored. The other 'danes, mostly tourists, are pretty understanding of the reasons for the lockdown, but are still nervous as heck about being on the same station as the likes of Asmodeus and Profeta. They're staying in their rooms, or lingering in a handful of the recreational areas, looking like they expect Boskones to jump out of the walls.
As for the fen? Most of us are somewhere between disbelieving and ecstatic. Even for a lot of us that came up in the early days, Grey's become our personal bogeyman, the thing that lurks in the shadows. Hell, maybe especially for those of us that went through those years. But every time a Grey sighting was confirmed, it's always been 'here's the latest horror' or 'escaped justice yet again', to the point that I couldn't help but think this day would never come. But it's happened. Jet got the bastards. And they're not getting away this time. And when I realise that I start giggling again, or I see someone else laughing under their breath, they catch my eye and we're both smiling because we're both just so happy...
Mughi's has had a constant, low-intensity party going since yesterday. Go in, have a drink or two, join in the victory dances and listen to Tsumugi's music, head on out. So much fun. I really wanna get Jet in some proper 80s gear and get out on that floor. Sadly, that's not going to happen, given every time she pops up in the public areas right now, she gets people trying to get the full story out of her. So she's been staying mostly out of sight, and those of us that were involved somehow are decent enough to not yelling at her for not telling us the whole story. Because we get how 'classified' works.
