[eugenesis]

You might say that. [Understatement.]

Why? Is there some creature that needs disecting?

[quietone]

Vivisecting would be more accurate.

An Insectkin named Frou Frou is the one responsible for kidnapping a portion of the crew, as well as giving us some trouble at Crown Station during the Ball. Unfortunately she’s put me in the position of having to meet with her shortly. I’d like to deal with her permanently if possible.

If you are interested I can provide more details, but I cannot guarantee your safety whatsoever.

[eugenesis]

It's a hit squad, isn't it? I don't know why you're asking me to come if you need muscle, unless someone told you I used to fight in the gladiator pits of Kaon.

Organics are pretty easy to kill. You don't need a surgeon to bleed her to death.

[quietone]

I hadn’t heard that. But if you were a former Gladiator and your Pits of Kaon were similar to the ones I knew, that would make you well qualified. However I mostly want your technical skills and knowledge.

[And for his lack of morals.]

I already have the muscle I believe we will need, but given what happened to our “muscle” on Crown Station when they faced off against a bunch of organics, I’m erring on the side of caution. Insectkin use a type of… organic, living technology that is difficult to deal with.

[eugenesis]

Like the ship we intercepted?




I'm in.

[quietone]

[So he was as much of a freak as he had heard. But on the bright side, if they got him killed on this mission, it's not like anyone would be upset.]

Similar, but not exactly the same.

[He sent over an image of what looked to just be literal slugs and a glass box of worms.]

Those are what they use for data slugs and a tablet.

[eugenesis]

I appreciate their commitment to the theme, but I hope that was the most efficient design they had for their technology.

[It's not the worms themselves that bother him.]

[quietone]

There were ‘ants’ as well that Frou Frou used as spies. Thankfully we have countermeasures for those being put in place.

Let me know when you are available for a full debriefing. Dreadwing and Skyquake are the muscle who will accompany us.

[eugenesis]

Tomorrow. I'm interested in catching some of these organic devices and cutting them open.

I also have plenty of tree-cons to help us out.

[quietone]

I believe they have all been culled from the ship, but I will see about getting you some of the bodies that security has.

Are your 'tree-cons' exactly what the name implies?

[eugenesis]

Yes. Droids that were grown from organic plant matter. They run on wires and electricity, so don't worry about them acting too differently from us. It's only their appearance and makeup that differ.
