It was three years ago, during the fall of doraun.
but three years is a long time, long enough for a person to change.

I smash Mint across the head with the butt of my gun.

Mint is staggered which throws off her aim, her weapon hooks into Oken's belt and slices her hip

Follow up and shove her head into that pillar.

Tempting to say trip her so she almost falls into the pit, making her maybe drop one of her weapons to keep from falling in.
>>
No. 625225 ID: 82efdc

Grab her knife arm and yank. Pull her off balance so she falls forward, down the pit.

...does Oken even have close combat training or are we relying purely on pluck and guts, here.

Grab her by the head and then knee her in the pelvis as hard as you can. It's easier to do than kneeing her in the face, and less likely to kill her outright.
Then throw her to the ground and kneel over her throat - if she tries to fight you then gravity can crush her windpipe much faster than she can escape.

Victory! Step right on her knife or knife hand, get her to let go of it. Then take it from her, and help her out of there on the condition that she promises to submit. Then get her restrained somehow, for future interrogation.

Leave the shields on her until you get her out of range of that sniper, I wouldn't trust them to hold their fire.

I step on her jabby thing, she won't let go

Oken: "promise to stop this and I'll help you up."

Mint: "I'm afraid I can't Oken, I don't want to be a traitor."

Oken: "What?"

Mint: "I've done nothing wrong, and no matter how much you attack me that won't change, I'm just helping us get home and doing what's best for the alliance."

Oken: " . . . "

Mint: "now that you've whacked me around a bit, help me up so we can get off this mud ball."

No. 625516 ID: fe4bfc

"No you are doing what is best for you. If whatever you have been up to was that important to our people you could have told us and we would have helped you."

If you let her go you have the same problem as before. You can't trust her and she is a fanatic to whatever cause she follows. She has proven to be untrustworthy and would kill you all if it helped advance her goals.

Its a crappy situation no matter what you do. Let her live and you are responsible for any harm she does. Kill her and you loose possible info on what she was doing.

Honestly I would just shoot her in the head a few times before things get worse.

Her smirking just means that she stabbed you with her mind control dagger and expects you to be unable to disobey her.

Make her tell you what she has been up to. If she refuses shoot her in the head 3-4 times and get back to working on escaping.

"You've put me at gunpoint and almost killed me. You hurt my other friends. You sabotaged Pierce. You've also completely shattered our honor on the battlefield. Hoff has no legs to walk home on. If we have to replace his legs with robot ones, he'll no longer be considered an Astranian. You are not only a soldier of the alliance, you are also my friend. You betrayed me. You betrayed yourself. If you did what you thought was best for the alliance, I can believe you trust that delusion. You did not do what what best for us or for you. You've compromised us completely and utterly.

I can't. I can't shoot Mint, I can't spill Astranian blood.

Oken: "you've hurt Hoft, he'll never fight again!"

Mint: "I told him about the mines, he didn't believe me, just like you don't believe me. Idiots sew their own destruction."

Oken: "you shot me!"

Mint: "your accomplice shot first, and you charged me."

Oken: "y-you ..."

Mint: "you really believe I'm the traitor? still so naive."

No. 626301 ID: 94b817

There is more that one way to be a traitor,Hoff didn't believe her about the mines because she continuously kept secrets from us, sometimes outright lied, she may not be a traitor to the alliance but she is a traitor to this group and your friendship and trust.

Perhaps its time your group and her go you separate ways. She can find her own way home and you can find yours without her jeopardizing us.

But if she deliberately causes shit for us again she will be seen as an enemy and treated as such.

Yeah I am sure you "warned" him.

And my secret sniper accomplice that I warned you about because that makes there job easier.

And then you start rambling about treachery while conveniently never actually saying anything.

Listen Mint mistakes have been made left and right on this mission. God knows I am a rookie at commanding a team. But I am doing the best I can with the info I have. So if you keep spouting double talk and phrases like "You're better off oblivious" I am going to assume you do not have our best interests in mind.

What happened to you Mint? I consider you a close friend and hate to be in this position but I don't know what else to do. If you can't tell me what you are up to how can I not trust that the bugs have not gotten to you? Or something even worse.

Why are you using metaphors! Why did you kill Jones. And you've been wearing a sneer this entire time! Like you've been enjoying this. I haven't been enjoying this Mint. Not at all! You didn't trust us, you didn't trust your team. We would've helped if we understood what you were doing. How were we supposed to survive together when you're sneaking off, keeping secrets, and murdering helpful humans? You killed Jones, and you killed the Commando. They're not a part of the organization the alliance is at war with. You killed civilians. And don't give me crap about how human's killed my people, their government killed my people, if there's no conspiracy. I've always hated the pinkie's government, not the pinkies. Jones and the Commandoes are independents.

Not once have you explained how any of this is helpful for the alliance, you're just saying it is. What, is killing Jones going to destroy a bunch of Tech Leeches on your homeworld? Is giggling like a psychopath when you have a gun pointed at me going to free your family and your planet from their clutches?
>>
No. 626335 ID: 01745f

Mint, you are calling us naive in the same breath as literally demanding we take your word despite contrary evidence without giving a single reason why. Since this started you have done nothing but lie, attack us, and refuse to give any information or justification beyond saying "I'm not a traitor". Normal soldiers don't do that, so if you aren't a traitor then what are you? Explain what you are doing and give some actual reasons why we should believe it, or we are done with you.

True enough, the man before me is Marshal Droegan, bearing a scoped rifle of some sort.

Oken: "sorry about warning mint about you"

Droegan: "S'alright, my fault for not giving you a heads up . . . anyways about your pal"

Drogen, could you describe your old beef with Jones?

I know Mint killed him, but still a little curious about ALL the chaos that's started and what it might have to do with Jones.

Mint had to have had a decent reason to kill him, she wouldn't have sought him out otherwise. Not worth the effort, even if she justifies it simply because he was a human and therefore an enemy. She just didn't want to say jack shit.
Nonetheless Drogen, we should be on the lookout, no idea if she's the type to hold a grudge and needlessly murder us in the night.

I wonder what faction she's working for. Still has to be lying about working with the Alliance on this. The Alliance is a very straightforward organization, while it keeps secrets, it doesn't do crazy conspiracy bullshit without techleech meddling. Well, maybe it's tightlipped about psychics and stuff, but it's to be expected with how controversial rituals and psychic bullshit is within Astranian culture. Mint's probably not a psychic agent.

Ask him about that badge he is wearing (if you don't already know what it means); Mint was carrying some kind of spike with a knob on the end strongly resembling it.

>Mint had to have had a decent reason to kill him, she wouldn't have sought him out otherwise.
Notably, she did NOT kill the commando despite the commando being human and sort of in her way. On the other hand, her reason for killing him might have been him seeing some secret of hers rather than who he was.
>>
No. 627178 ID: d90668

Yeah her knife thing had the same symbol as his badge thingy. Not sure if it would be a good idea or not to mention that.

We will need help from the people around here if you ever want to get home. Or if you want to live longer than a few hours honestly.

Mint was wandering around doing something secret that involved people and ruins around here and possibly the tech leeches. So some of the people who live here might be in on the secret.

So ask questions but tread lightly.

Droegen: "my trouble with Jones?"

Droegen let's out a deep sigh

Droegen: "Marit Jones was a product of the times, in this case times of war. A whole generation has grown up knowing nothing but conflict their entire lives."

he's not just talking about Jones, or even just Solars . . .

Droegen: "Jones was born to war profiteers, gangsters, scavengers . . . pirates. His whole life that's all he knew, when I tried to show him a better path he could only see me as another crime lord.

when ever he screwed up he'd figure I'd have to make him suffer in even if only to save face, it was how society work in his eyes. He must have had a lot of respect for me, cause when I didn't deliver payback he got scared, damn scared."

Oken: "Why?"

Droegen: "He was scared that my people might see weakness in my pity for him, and over throw me. So he started doing stupid things to prove to everyone he was worth keeping around."

The smart choice is to take the stitches. There's no telling how long we'll be trapped here, and you might well suffer a life threatening injury in the next 20 days. Being unable to treat it with the nano-stitcher is unacceptable.

And I have to assume there are cosmetic treatments for scars, if and when we get out of here.

*Cough*. And modesty issues definitely take a back seat to survival practicality. The doctor's just going to have to be professional. Or else.

We don't plan on getting wounded anytime soon. Nanostitcher. Next time, we'll use the traditional method. Hopefully, if there's a wound within the next 20 or so days it will be on a more practical location for the traditional method, like the arm or leg.

You're better off with the traditional stitches. Save the nanostitcher for a an emergency.

Scars are a part of life in the military. Both wounds are out of sight with clothes on so will be unnoticeable. If he is a half decent doctor he should be able to put really find stitching in there so the scars are light.

On the other hand if bikini season is important to you then go for the nano-stitcher.

As for decency you are both adults and he is a doctor so its just part of life. I know you little guys are crazy prudish but learn to live with it.

Stitches aren't a laughing matter, you'd need to be really careful about how you move while they heal. The skin would also tighten and might impede your mobility even leaving aside the issues of risking pain and misaligned tissue. I understand wanting to save the nanostitcher for later, but not using it now might be what makes you have to use it later.

So, I say use it now. Prevention is better than a cure, and traditional methods will still work later.

Use the Nano-stitcher. You have it for a reason and hording supplies just in case you get hurt again is a bad practice to get into.

Having extensive stitching will slow you down for at least a week if not longer. Plus you might have more fights and the possibility of tearing the stitches if you are not careful.

If your wounds were more superficial I would say go for normal medicine. But you have some pretty decent cuts there. And the burn from the laser will need to have the bandage changed often in the first couple of days.

Oken: "I'll take my chances with the Nano-stitcher."

I can almost detect a slight amount of disappointment in his voice . . . he better not have had any ulterior motives!

Dealing with him staring at my flank for even minutes is embarrassing enough, this was definitely the right choice and I'm glad when he stops

Fuze: "There, good as new! though it'll take some time for the fur to grow back."

Oken: "I'll make do"

Now I need to decide what to do about these ruined clothes, I suppose I could tough it out, but it won't be comfortable, especially the underwear.

Not sure I could go without commando, with my belt broken friction with my underwear is probably the only thing keeping my pants up . . .

I go get my hat and goggles

Fuze: "My where has Hoft gone?"

Ceckail: "Took him to Droegen's couldn't have him lying around on the ground."

I don't like that she did that without our asking, but this is the solar's city, and I don't want to cause upset by objecting.

Oken: "Fuze you should head over there and keep an eye on him."

Fuze: "What about you?"

Oken: "I think I need to find something to wear . . ."

Ceckail: "Ooo, I bet you could look adorable, can I help?"

If they're going to give him medical care, please don't replace his legs with synthetic ones without his permission, and even if he does give it, wait a bit for us to talk with him about it.

The alliance has a thing against cyborgs and has a whole body purity culture, and I don't want him going into the robot corps for the rest of his life once we get back home. It's pretty much a death sentence. We'd rather clone new organic legs and reattach them with those.

With a Solar that's asking a lot . . .

Oken: "well alright, but keep in mind despite my height I'm not a child!"

Ceckail: "Haha, Of course you're not and as a mature adult lady you'll need to look the part!"

I regret my decision already

* * *

The commando takes me to a run down market place, maybe it's nice by Solar standards, but I wouldn't know.

Ceckail: "Here we are Memora market! not the most amazing place to shop, but not terrible either"

There are lots of Solars around some of them eye me wearily.

Ceckail: "So what kind of sexy look you going for?"

I should be specific in what I'm looking for in regards too:
-What kind of underwear I need.
-What kind legwear I need.
-What kind of top I need.

No. 628705 ID: bd8b82

for undergarments the biggest one is to be compatible with fur.
leggings need to work with the boots and the top seems pretty good so something similar.

Fishnet stockings.

Silly Solar. You are an Astranian and a soldier first. Being female is more of a medical detail in this circumstance, like being a herbivore.

Still, if she can help point out clothing that cries out 'This is the outfit of an awesome Acepilot' perhaps it will be acceptable.

Be prepared to accept the possibility that leggings may be a bit loose, as Solars have those weird knobby feet.

Practical. As someone running around in full armor should appreciate, function comes before style. And even when we consider style, 'sexy' isn't what you're shooting for. 'Cool pilot' would be more like it.

Frilly Things.

No, Seriously. You've ended stripped down to your panties and top pretty frequently the past month or so. You want as much material as you can spare, without them thinking you might be hiding something else under there.

They'll let you keep the frilly underclothes and then you can use the extra material to make garrottes, bindings, snares, short lengths of descent rope. All while not compromising much of the actual 'coverage value'.

You can even hide wires (or needles/picks if you're feeling risky) in that sort of stuff.

As for the leggings, something durable.

Oken: "Okay I'm not trying to looks "sexy" I'm a soldier my being female shouldn't even be a factor"

Ceckail: "hmmm . . "

Oken: "I should have an outfit that screams 'Ace pilot'. people should know how skilled I am"

Ceckail: "okay"

Oken: "it needs to be at least a little loose to work with my fur . . . especially the underwear,

Ceckail: "got it"

Oken: "also the leg-wear needs to work with my boots"

Ceckail: "Alright I've got an idea!"

Is that a schoolgirl uniform?

The top half almost looks like a pilot's jacket, although it would sort of depend on the color.

Any panties are better than the ruined ones.

You need pants, though. Action is not well supported by dresses.

Sigh, put the stuff on for a moment to entertain your help, and then explain you need pants.

Do you really think they have normal clothes in your size? Just wear this stuff until you can have your other clothes repaired.

Also put learning to sew on your training list for later.

I might as well try the outfit . . .

I calmly remove my coat and fold it neatly on the bench
I remove my shirt and fold it neatly on the bench
I remove my boots and set them aside
I remove my pants and fold them neatly on the bench

I reluctantly remove my damaged underwear and fold them neatly on the bench.
