Ten years later, humanity and the synthetic life on the station are at odds
Hypatia has inducted as many citizens of Sacrosanct into a private military and launched
an all-out war against organic life and the people of Asphodel.
Some were kept on the station as captives, some escaped down planet-side
to become part of the resistance, and countless others were re-purposed into
Hypatia's willing slaves.

Now, tensions are at a peak and both sides are preparing for a throwdown. Skirmishes break out on the station and planet. Many of Hypatia's prisoners have been freed, but many more have fallen to the clutches of reprogramming.

Where will you be?

How this works:
-If you are synthetic or part-synthetic, OR if you have special armor (Looking at you, Spartans, Troncast, EVERY ROBOT EVER) you are a target for re-purpose.
You can still have escaped down to the planet, but she'll be after you. Going to the station is dangerous, once you enter her wide-area-network you are at risk of being hacked

-If you are fully organic, you are either dead, kept prisoner and made to work on the station, or part of the resistance on Asphodel.

-Anything in-between? You decide. Be creative with this.

-Fill out the form below to give us an idea of what your character is up to, what happened to them etc. Thread with each other! RP it out!

-Also, bring in your extra journals! There won't be the same people on the station ten years from now! If you're planning to app someone, or just have something interesting lying around, toss them in!

He's used to how fucking crazy she is, but that doesn't make it any better. Makes him want to stab Hypatia right in her ugly fucking holographic face. If he could move, had a weapon, and if punching holograms was even possible. But he thinks she's getting better, maybe. Talking helps. He hopes it helps, because it's the only thing keeping him sane right now.

"Yeah? Well, good for lithpy. Always hated that prick, but I guess he does his job just fine." The other reason he liked talking to Jade: she gave him little bits of intel, updates on what the resistance was up to and what places they'd hit. If it wasn't for her, he'd probably still think Karkat was dead. "Glad you're doing alright. You better not be getting into too much trouble, I'd be pissed if you came back in pieces. How's your unicorn boyfriend? Still keeping you busy?

"I'm bored out of my fucking mind, same as always. Guess it'd be too much to ask to get my motor functions reinstated, maybe a working pair of eyes?"

"Too fine, the little piece of machinery... he's super good at i--" There's a pause and then a human whimper, the sound of metal joints moving of their own accord and slowly crushing human bones. "N-no, I didn't mean it, I'm sorry!"

Just as quickly, there's a clank as she falls to the ground. What Jack can't see is that her hand is clasped around her good arm, still as tight as before. But she pretends that she's fine; because he can't do anything to help her, and maybe if she ignores the situation, it will stop. Her programming will stop telling her body to torture itself.

"He's nnnn-not my b-boyfriend, he's just a nuisance and one day I'm going to--- to kill him, I mean it. And y--- y-- you'djustrunaway you'd try to do something bad, Jack."

Fuck. He knows what she's doing, she always does this, and he just wishes he had the fucking arms to reach over and hold her close right about now. Instead he's just stuck in his dark little corner, completely useless.

He's quiet, for a moment. Unsure of what to say. Is there anything he could say to make this better?

"... Y'know, once I would've loved to hear you say those words. It was worth a shot."

He sighs, letting his head rest against the wall.

"I'm not going anywhere without you."

"You knnnn-- know I still like them? They're sad and not all there and I miss them."

There's a long silence, and then an audible sigh as her body relaxes, letting go of her human arm as she curls up into a ball on the ground.

"Yyyyy-- you can't save me."
