[There's a pause where William actually goes to check, before he comes back.]

It's totally fuckin possible. likely even we're being lied to, but I'm not sure what the point would be of that

what's the real date that you've got then?

[circumitus]

it was 938 AE when we all first arrived. while it's been established that we do skip ahead in time with every jump, that would imply we've been traveling for around 134 years since the beginning of all this, and that's


no.

[dogbane]

hmmmmm.

[There's a little pause while William glances over the network to check.]

well in one of the measured jumps we cleared at least 9 fuckn months

I reckon

I mean
Ain't it possible

[circumitus]

suppose that's true.

but still.
134 years?

[She pauses to let that sink in and fuuuccckkk.]

been on this damn thing for 134 years.

[dogbane]

that is a bit fucked.

I guess I been on here for at least a couple decades at that rate.

shit.

[circumitus]

[WE ARE OFFICIALLY WAY TOO OLD FOR THIS SHIT.]

suppose that would certainly make our pursuers incredibly persistent.

[dogbane]

that's true!

I suppose its a bit odd Van Rijn's lived this long, but we do have some of his physical enhancements documented. leadership qualities, maybe related to assimilation, but also his longevity.

fucking creepy.

I wonder if any of his original minions he assigned to chase our arses across space are still around

[circumitus]

odd but not impossible.
was created by a person who was over 300 years old.
have also been around for over a century at this point.

either way it's not that hard to believe that someone can live that long, given the technology of this world.

been wondering about them as well. hope joshua is okay.

[hahahahahahahhahahhahaha]

[dogbane]

I didnt know youd gotten friendly with one of them

I dont think I really had a word



hang on, you mean YOU was created by a person 300+ years of age?

2/2

[dogbane]

you mean like you was built by some fucking science geezer who was into genemods/

[circumitus]

yes?
more or less

he was able to stop his aging a long time ago. some sort of cellular mutation or something.

[dogbane]

Shit well

Hopefully your mate Josh got his mitts on some of that then



how the fuck did you even get to like him though?

wasnt they all cagey

and weird and dictatorial and shit

[circumitus]

he was one of the few people who's ever showed up in this place who was upfront and honest about shit. he even took the time to answer some needed questions rather than dodging them.
after being here for so long, it's easy to actually appreciate that.

[dogbane]

What sort of shit did he tell you?

I was under the impression they were fucking around like they was under orders not to give us anything real or helpful. or personal.

not their fault but fucking frustrating

[circumitus]

seems more like they were under a time constraint. given the amount of time that passes between jumps, can see why they were in such a rush to gather intel.

[dogbane]

Benefit of the doubt, eh?

no wonder he fuckin liked you

who knows maybe you're right. Maybe we can ask him when he shows up

[circumitus]

hope so. despite all his answers, would still like to ask him a lot of things.

[LIKE WHAT'S HIS FAVORITE ICE CREAM FLAVOR no I kid.

[...Or do I?]
