Edgy as a razorblade factory like always I see.

Get some help.

Oh well. Heard that in some societies such things are considered reasonable. Actually, they have something similar in Amarr Empire. But making personal things personal is actually more within my worldview too.  
So, didn’t really expect any of you to agree.

Alas, milady nothing to thank for 🤭

Did. Do. It’s why I work for Directrix Phonaga.

(Also, if you think I’m edgy, have you _met_ Veik? Veik, Remilia; Remilia, Veik.)

(I’m the one who wants to spare crew where possible, who savors the hunt but regrets the kill, and who thinks we pseudo-immortals could do with suffering a bit more. Veik’s … uh. Well, you’ll see. If she wants.)

Are you _teasing me_, Ms. Jenneth?  
Don’t feed me with perhapses. Tell me yes or no.  
If you agree, I’ll consider you honorable and start preparing for it.  
If you disagree, I’ll start looking for other ways to make you pay for your crime that suits better dishonorable scum.

Haha, better! If you keep using real observations to fight instead of making things up or blindly reaching for whatever unwieldy bludgeon comes to hand I could actually start to find you interesting, Ms. Malitia.

Well, unless something happens to me between here and there. The time’s indeterminate, is all.

Thanks to you, Ms. Kim, I now have a retirement plan. It starts with a knife fight. After that we’ll see.

So, Veik? Without getting into the weeds of it, you’ve got two blooded Caldari combat pilots, one a glorified mercenary (albeit on long-term contract), the other an actual _kybernaut,_ mutually agreeing that thou art edgy. As in, edgier than either of us.

If there’s a question you might want to focus on the how rather than the whether.

(Also you’ve gloried in it in the past. “Edgy reputation maintain,” yes?)

I don’t really mind a reputation for being edgy, there’s at least a connotation of affectation there that I’ve always found useful in my career. I’ve always maintained the maxim that when you let people feel superior to you, they’re easier to manipulate so a degree of jocularity goes a long way to ensuring that.

But in my experience most of my reputation is from people asking me questions and subsequently clutching at pearls when I give them an honest answer.

That’s … coming really close to a working definition of “being edgy,” Veik.

K.

So, unless somebody’s badly misunderstanding somebody here Ms. Kim also thinks you’re edgier than _she_ is, Veik. And you know what her outlook’s like.

So. . . .

(Though come to think of it I have no actual reason to think Ms. Kim feels her outlook could be considered even marginally “edgy.” Hm.)

More like spiky, but I guess some people might consider I might get a bit edgy when I am getting overly excited.

If it means people don’t take me seriously, then I can live with being edgy.

This may be a discussion forum but individual threads have specific topics.  
That thread involves the Automata Semiosis Sobornost, not your Triglavian-themed fiction.

Deliberate off-topic posting can be reported to moderation.
