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!

Dave thinks of himself as a lot of things, loyal and almost knightly (but not quite) and willing to do anything to get his friends back, but after ten years human is no longer really in his lexicon, and the way he kisses her is anything but human. He is all sharp edges and hate - growls and fangs, cutting and sucking and hissing and purring, and even if he notices in the back of his head that she hasn't teleported away he's too busy licking at her (bloodied) bottom lip to do anything about it.

One hand tangles in her hair, right above her scalp, and pulls it taut as the other tightens in its grip at her back. Falling is inconvenient (if not exhilarating), and he starts flying upward in an attempt to counter her downward momentum.

When he draws blood, the circuits kick back in. Blood she understands -- emotions she does not -- and as soon as his tongue wipes across her bloody lips she's moving into action. Biting back with reinforced teeth, aiming a knee for his groin and screaming in robotic-sounding anger as he pulls at her hair.

Jade wants to teleport out of his grasp, but can't figure out how without bringing him along. Sure, getting him lost in the void between worlds would be kind of fun, but she can't really keep playing with him like that. This is the first time in a long while that she's actually losing the match. And she realizes what's at stake: her mind, her freedom. Forced into a cage until the effects of so-called science can reverse the damage done on her mind. Until someone can break through the firewalls and traps and turn her back. If there even is a back for someone like her.

She can't remember a back, anyway.

"Let me go you little bastard I'll rip your teeth out and yyyyyyy-- y-- you can't have me I won't go with you don't even try and take me away from Her she's my MotherMasterProgramming I need her so stop it!"

The glitches kick in full throttle in her voice, and Dave is suddenly acutely aware that he just tried to get jiggy with one brainwashed Jade Harley. (Sollux has a few things to say about that, too, mind you.) But that's not important, and Dave actually shooshes Sollux for the first time in god knows how long, because she's not teleporting.

She's.
Not.
Teleporting.

He has no fucking clue what triggered it, if it's this sort of proximity that she can't escape from, but if that's what it takes then fine. His grip tightens even harder, bringing Jade closer to him and




ow ow ow ow managing to absorb most of the blow to the crotch with some absurdly quick momentum shifting. Still, his grip doesn't waver for one second - this is the first breakthrough he's made in years. He isn't quitting now. If he has any say, he isn't quitting ever.

"Quit complaining, Jade. Jeez, take a chill pill already."

His voice manages to sound calmer than the tempest of excitement that it actually is, somehow.

She can't get away, and her programming is screaming in her mind you little fuckup is that how you want to play, do you really want to lose to him? So she's glitching bad, her motions irregular as she jerks and twitches in his hold. "I don't want to lose this let me go dave i ha-- ha-- hateyouhateyouhateyou letmego fuck you fuck you!"

Her robotic arm scrabbles for his face, sharp nails trying to sink into his skin -- but then she's trying to yank herself free-- and then

you don't even deserve to live if you can't even escape one little boy

the long, sharp nails that were just a second ago trying to maim him are now jamming themselves into her chest, ripping at skin and trying to break bone to hurt her, to make her die in the most painful way she can think of. And for a moment, she's almost completely human; the metallic shrieks and glitches turn into a pained, high-pitched scream as her own body attempts to decimate her.
