Hi there. I’m 26/F and always struggled to find my place. Since first grade, I was the weird girl walking around alone in school, and two decades later it’s still true.
Despite all my efforts, i have never made any friends. Not even just a nice acquaintance to chat with every now and then. Summer is always harder imo. I am so so so lonely.
When i was younger it was easier to accept it because i would just turn on my laptop and play and it was my me time and i was happy. But my laptop broke a while ago and i can’t afford to fix it. The only thing that made me happy is gone and all i have left is my thoughts and wondering what is wrong with me.
Honestly, i’ve been asking myself this question since first grade. It’s like everyone knows a secret about me, but me. I analysed others emotions and the things they do trying to copy it to fit in, i don’t even feel like a human anymore. Maybe this is the secret, they know im not one of them.
I’ve given myself time to fix this till i’m 40. Used to be it was 30 but it’s getting close and i don’t wanna end it yet. Even if 14 more years like this sounds exhausting, i’m scared to end it. I’ve already wasted too much time.
I spent so much time trying to figure out what is wrong with me. When i was a child i thought it was because i was fat, at least my classmates gave me a hard time about it. But later i lost weight and nothing changed. I thought i was smelling bad, my overall personality, autism and whatnot.
Trying to solve this puzzle gave me anxiety but no answers. I’m not looking for answers anymore. Im way too lost and drained for that. This world clearly doesn’t need me and that is okay!
thank you if you read my little rant. probably wont come back to this post because of embarrassment, but i had to tell someone

I have studied Computer science the first year at the uni and realized that it is not what I want to do for the rest of my life. I got F at programming subject in both semesters and I think that I basically won't get the degree (or if I will get it, I won't stand working as a programmer more than couple of months), so why waste a few more years of my life, if it won't have any result? But I don't know what to do if I drop out of the university and I'm wondering if there are people, who were in my situation or similar one and decided to keep studying, because all people say what will happen if you drop out of university, but no one is talking what will be if you keep studying and doing what you don't like. Thank you for your answer in advance

hi! so i’m just wondering what everyone thinks of this situation- if he could be looking for a relationship or just trying to get some. 23M 21 F
I met a boy on tinder (lol ik) but he’s from the same small college as me so we connected a bit from that and it helps he feel more comfortable. we actually had a bunch of plans made for the week because we ever had a date and eventually started with a early morning coffee date before he had to go into work at night. it went great he is super sweet and mentioned almost everything i told him im interested in while on the date. he has told me that he is looking for a relationship but im just hesitant with boys because of past experiences. before he dropped me off i asked if we were still on for going out to dinner the next day and he said he’d love to and genuinely seemed excited. later on he texted me asking if i would like to watch a movie after at his or mine apartment(he offered mine if it worked better because i do have to go to sleep early for work) we both have roommates so there’s not any safety issue i am concerned about.
im interested in what others think of this. i wouldn’t necessarily be opposed but i need to make sure im not just getting played. i did casually mention that it would be in my living room if he came over. haven’t gave an answer yet lol.

Hey y’all, I’ve just recently fallen down the rabbit hole that is infrared photography, and I have some questions that I’m hoping to get some help with. All of this I’ve tried googling but didn’t find specific answers, so I’m turning here for help :> (Posted this to infraredphotography as well)
I have a Rolleicord IV and a Pentax 6x7 (w/ 90 & 105mm lenses) that I am planning on shooting on, but I’m having trouble finding IR filters for them, especially the Rolleicord.
The thread on the Pentax lenses is 67mm, so I’m assuming I could use modern 67mm IR filters (recommendations welcomed) but the Rolleicord is another question. The filter mount is the Bayonet 1, but I have not been able to find an infrared filter for it, nor have I found any sources to see if any filters I’d find would be good quality enough to warrant buying them. If anybody has any experiences or could link me to a forum I missed, please let me know!
Another problem is that the Rolleicord does not have an infrared focusing dot/line to my understanding, so if anybody has a clue about that problem (besides shooting exclusively above f/16 lol) I’d appreciate the input!
Thank you for your time!!!

AITAH for flipping out on the phone with the pharmacy?
I really don’t think I am the asshole but I know I probably could have handled it better but on to the story.
I (35 female) have ADD and have been on medication for almost my entire life and know all the current issues with having to get the medication filled and that there are shortages for certain strengths. I recently requested to have my dosage upped by 5mg not thinking that this new strength would be part of the strengths that is usually out of stock since the current dosage I have never had issues getting it. But I got this new prescription 2 weeks ago and the only communication I got was the day of the prescription request that they were putting an order for the medication. I know I should have followed up last week but I was sick and barely could function and even told myself last week to call and just kept forgetting. So when I did remember today I was a little annoyed it was taking so long. I finally speak with a pharmacy tech or pharmacist not sure which but this was after having to listen and get through the automated phone system so I was again a little annoyed at this point. So thinking back the woman on the phone was already a little rude to me for the start and just being short with me and talking over me which is probably my biggest trigger from when I had to be super nice and work with customers on the phone at my previous job with an answering service, like could never been so rude to a customer and get away with it. But after few minutes of just not being able to ask a full question without this woman assuming what I was asking and just talking over me and listening to her fake niceness and screaming into the phone the have her SHUT THE F*** UP and let me ask questions and to stop talking over me. I immediately apologized and explained I didn’t like that she was talking over me and that I understood it wasn’t her fault for the issues with the medication. So I finally got somewhat of a question out but she just went back to her rude attitude and again speaking over me. After that I just realized that help was not going to come from her and to just get off the phone and get my prescription filled partially so I could atleast get some medication and in 15 days work on getting something figured out.
But I think I was so frustrated that they couldn’t have called me in the 2 weeks and explain like we only have X amount; do you want us to fill it with just that and then you have to request your doctor call in a new prescription for the difference. But the fact that I had to call made me super upset for the jump and maybe that came across but even so has customer service just lost at pharmacies?
But am I the asshole for flipping out on the phone with the pharmacy?
Edit: the prescription was never filled for me as they never had the correct quantity on hand for my prescription amount. It was only ready for pick up after I called.

AFAB nonbinary person seeking long-term monogamous relationship. Childfree, left-leaning, non-religious, etcetera. Autistic + suspected ADHD. My brain is truly braining. I have three cats, am 5’4”, and look like this.
I’ve always been a daydreamer. Sometimes even a daynightmarer. It might be nice to have someone to share a dream with. To hold hands and walk through life with. Maybe build a blanket fort with?
I like to keep houseplants, mostly succulents. The best plants are the ones I need to water the least. I like watching all sorts of animated stuff. Currently enthralled with Dungeon Meshi (my favorite is Senshi because he’s handsome). I also like reading when I have the space in my brain for it. I’m pretty of-and-on with it and mostly read fantasy romance novels or keep up with comic/manga series I like. My favorite music genres are indie pop and alt.
Things I do not like but do anyway include exercising regularly, cooking reasonably healthy food, and struggling with my addiction to a single cup of coffee a day (I did not know this could happen until I stopped drinking the one cup). I’m trying to find cardio that I can manage AND isn’t painfully boring. Tough. Therapy is also big in my life right now, considering that my brain brains. I’m also stuck between applying for disability and finding a job I can do until I get everything sorted out brainily. I’m also COVID-conscious and am learning how to do better with that. Fun stuff.
What I’m looking for in a man is genuine kindness and patience. I tend to get along best with more laid-back people. A nice sense of humor is a big plus. I love a good laugh. My usual type is big, burly, and bearded. My ideal first date is doing something fun together or trying something new. Maybe a museum or aquarium visit? A night in with board games?
Some important requirements: - male - 25-31 - living in the USA, the closer to VA the better - single, monogamous, and looking for a long-term relationship - does not have or want to have children in any way, ever - prepared to take things s l o w l y - non-smoking, not a drug user - good direct communication skills - COVID-conscious or genuinely willing to become so

Here is a situation that's been difficult for me for many years and I don't know if my feelings are justified. I'm confused and need opinions.
I (26)f, joined my father to another country when I was 14 yo. I didn't grow up with him and he was 0 present in my life before I moved with him, never called me to talk to me, ask how I was doing, etc. He only talked to mom and payed for my school. I grew up without feeling his presence and to be honest it didn't bother me as that's what I was used to. Then I moved with him when I was 14, alone just the two of us in another country. I discovered very quickly that he leaves the toilet dirty (pee and poo stains on the seat) so I can't sit to use the toilet before cleaning it. He doesnt clean after himself overall but the toilet is the biggest issue. I hated asking him to clean up because it's embarrassing but I still did it many times. He would answer by telling me what's the problem and I should just go ahead and clean it myself, he was very tired or was too sleepy to clean or he would simply ignore me. Mind you he was around 60 yo, so I told myself maybe it's the age. However he has no difficulty doing anything else, and when I insist he cleans he does so with no problem. So I think it's more like he doesn't bother to clean. It's been 12 years that I've been living with him and the problem remains. We have fought about it many many times, but nothing changes. Sometimes he would clean, most of the times he wouldn't bother. I however have not gotten used to cleaning his poop and pee, I hate it so much and everytime I do it I feel a part of me die. I usually clean the toilet at least twice a day. I feel so disrespected. Add to that that he hardly spoke to me during all this time together, doesn't ask me how I'm doing, didn't check on what I was doing or where I was going as a teenager, and whenever there was something that needed to be done I had to fight him to do it, I have to fight him just to get his attention. I felt so ignored and dismissed and still do. And I'm very resentful towards him, I didn't feel like he took care of me other than providing me with food and shelter (I'm not minimizing them and the effort it takes to provide them)and so I hate having to clean his crap when he is fully capable to do so, and hate being dismissed by being told you should just deal with it.
I have moved before but came back mainly because of rent as I was a student. Now I don't want to move out because he is getting old and i don't want to leave him alone. However I am very angry and resentful and I lose my shit everytime I walk into the toilet. Like when I need to use the toilet in the middle of the night, I have to clean it while being sleepy or I have to make sure I don't sit.
I don't know how long I can take living like this before cracking.
Am I crazy for feeling like this? Are my feelings justified or am I being a brat? What should I do? I don't know how to cope anymore
Edit: I once went on vacation for a couple of months to my home country and when I came back the bathroom was filthy. I was tired and looking forward to hop on the shower and go to bed, but I had to clean everything first, so I just stood there and cried.

ABOUT MY RATES & PAYMENT OPTIONS:

• Disclaimer About Rates: Completing someone else's exam, essay, or homework assignment is obviously NOT something you can just freely ask anyone to do, especially on the internet.

Thus, I expect to be compensated fairly for all the value, stress relief, and saved time & energy my services provide. However, I may be willing to negotiate rates if necessary.

Considering the fact that you found my contact information online, it’s understandable to be skeptical regarding the legitimacy of my services. Therefore, I’m willing to do all of the following to help you feel more secure in trusting me with your academic needs:

• Engage in a Telephone interview: Speak with you on the phone and answer any questions you may have so that you have the opportunity to assess and analyze my tone, articulation, and accent. I’m a New Jersey-born Irish/Italian-American, but I have been told that I speak in an erudite & articulate suburban American accent with a “professor style” voice somewhat resembling the voice of actor: Ben Stein.
• Provide Telephone References: Provide you with the contact information of students who have utilized my services in the past who would be more than willing to vouch for my skills.

MY REBUTTAL TO THE OBLIGATORY “IS THIS A SCAM?” QUESTION:
At the risk of sounding arrogant, I consider myself to be at least marginally more intelligent (both academically & socially) than the average person. Therefore, if I ever decided to suddenly risk prison time, risk my reputation, and risk enduring the wrath of modern-day “cancel culture” by scamming people out of their money:

• Not Worth the Money: I certainly wouldn’t do it for such paltry amounts of money. (i.e., anything less than $1,000 per victim.)
• Most Students are Broke: I certainly wouldn’t choose high school & college students as my “target audience” to scam, considering that most people without college degrees have abysmally low annual incomes.
• Waste of Time & Energy: Communicating back and forth with potential clients is an absurdly long time sink since only less than 10% of all potential clients who reach out to me actually become paying clients of mine.
• All My Payment Apps are Still Active: If you pay me to provide academic services and I don’t deliver, you can always dispute the payment with the payment app and easily get your money refunded. If I were in the habit of swindling money from people, then all of my payment accounts would have been investigated and be completely shut down by now.
• My Mission: Thank you for taking the time to read my Reddit post. I take what I do very seriously and I always strive to get the highest possible grades for all students who entrust me with their coursework.
• Closing Words: Please feel free to reach out to me if you're sincerely interested in having help you with your school work. I am available via text, email, and call almost 24/7/365.

Hello everyone!
I have been studying languages on and off for about six years now. I have been using this new plan I made for about three months and I wanted to get some feedback from others on how I can improve my language skills. I am studying Indonesian (A2) and Russian (B1). My study sessions look like this:

• On weekdays 1.5 hours divided thus:
  
• 30 minutes active reading
  
• 30 minutes active listening
  
• 30 minutes Anki
  

Weekends: 3 hours divided thus:

• 60 minutes active reading
  
• 60 minutes active listening
  
• 30 minutes Anki
  
• 30 minutes conversation practice
  

For Anki, I have made cards that test the following:

• Cue: target word written answer: English definition (and reversed card)
  
• Cue: target word audio answer: English definition (and reversed card)
  
• Cue: target sentence audio answer: English sentence (and reversed)
  
• Cue: target sentence written answer: English sentence (and reversed)
  
• These cards mean that I do about even amounts of speaking, listening, reading, and writing practice (type in the answer) the only downside is the amount of time it takes to make each card (around 1-2 minutes)
  

As previously stated, my studies have been off and on, but there are trends in weakness I have been struggling with that are present across all my studies.

1. Vocab: I can only grow my vocabulary significantly by not studying vocab cards and instead focus on reading, but my speaking ability suffers.
   
2. Audio comprehension: My audio comprehension in language has always been my Achilles' Heel, and try as I might I have not found a way to really overcome it.
   Any advice/feedback/criticism is encouraged and welcome! Thank you for your time!

Hi there everyone. Please excuse the length of my post. I'm a talker, and a detail person. The thing is, I need help in figuring out what could be happening.
Six weeks ago I went to the emergency room sure my potassium was low again (I was right...when it comes to my potassium being low, I have yet to be wrong), and they gave me two and a half huge pills to take while I was there and then discharged me.
Three weeks ago I was feeling the same...worse actually. So I went in and they said I was at a critical low and I needed an infusion and more pills. That was fine with me. I'm just trying to keep from having the fatal heart arrhythmia that my Dad died of at the age of 71 at the age of 48 (he had Crohn's disease, I have Lupus).
Yesterday I went in because I was sure my potassium was low again, and I was right. They gave me pills to take there and they did another infusion. I think they might have infused me with twice as much potassium as they had three weeks prior, but I could be wrong about that.
The ER doctor insisted that I needed to be admitted, but couldn't be bothered to come talk to me about it and answer the questions I had about why this keeps happening over a relatively short period of time, and why I can't keep my potassium from going down to a critically low level every few weeks. Nope. I never saw him ONCE. He told one of the nurses to tell me that he would be admitting me, had them start treatment on me without telling me what they were doing or why they were doing it. There was no f^*#ing way I was letting him admit me. (I decided that if I needed to be admitted I'd go to a better hospital). (Just in case you're wondering why I didn't go to the ER at the better hospital, I chose not to because their ER is a nightmare. I didn't want to go through it until I knew that I needed to).
Anyway, I'm home, and I'm feeling good. No heart palpitations, none of the pain that leads to me going to the ER for this, no shortness of breath.
Normally I need an infusion once every few years. So all this happening in the course of six weeks is REALLY WEIRD for me. And I've battled low electrolytes for ten years at least.
I was on high dose steroids (to get my brain pressure under control) for about six to eight weeks over Christmas and into the new year. Then I weaned off of them per the doctor's instructions. I'm suspicious that this might be playing a role in the process speeding up to what feels like hyperdrive, but I have no idea how that would have happened, or why. And I'm open to all opinions.
My question is, has this happened to anyone else? Did you and your doctor ever figure out why your body didn't hold on to the potassium for more than a few weeks? Did weaning off of high dose steroids play a role in it?

Chapter 168 – The moment to live and the moment to die
​
„Jumping!“ an Ensign announced loudly as the Sun's view-windows very briefly flickered into a dark black only to go back to a full view of the ongoing battle basically instantly, having barely shifted the ship's position at incomprehensible speed. „Shot clear of allied ships.“
Vice-Admiral Kazadi tapped his finger on one of the armrests of the Commander's seat that still felt anything but comfortable for him to sit in as the tight grid of flashing lights reflected in his eyes within the twilight of the bridge.
“Fire,” he then ordered. Not even a blink later, a burst of colorful light broke into his view from the side of his very own ship, lighting up the entirety of the bridge even through the automatically tinting windows that absorbed a lot of the harmful light so the crew wouldn't flashbang themselves with each shot.
The relativity canon fire tore through the enemy ship at an almost literal instant with any travel time barely being conceivable to a mortal mind. In a large unload of energy that left almost the entire stern-side of the zodiatos ship as a molten mass of dispersing slag, the main propulsion was taken out. Simultaneously, the two accompanying cruisers had also taken their shots; with the 'Civil' taking out the engine of one more enemy vessel while the 'of the roses' had instead used its shot to disperse one of the enemy projectiles in order to buy their own hunter ships more freedom of movement. Those huge ones didn't go down easy from one of the hunters' smaller shots, so using one of the large canons to dispatch it took some of the heat off them.
Meanwhile, smaller targets on the enemy vessels, such as their own canons, were gradually taken out by said hunters, whose own fire – while able to be quite destructive if intended no doubt – could be used in a far more precise manner. With more and more of their canons failing, the protective volleys the coreworld terrorists could fire to hide themselves away also became less and less effective.
“Send the fallback-beacon,” Kazadi then ordered, since close quarter attacks became less and less necessary.
It seemed that the zodiatos had a hard time adjusting to the combat style of the human unkindnesses, however that didn't mean they should take any unnecessary risks. Even if a pilot could've been able to avoid all enemy attacks in a perfect world, he knew that his pilots were only human.
Casualties of their own had been comparatively minimal so far, however as if to prove him right about his thoughts, he could see on his surveillance screen how, just in that moment, one of their ships was taken out by an enemy craft.
He grimaced to himself and let out a mild sigh. One more family who would never see one of their own again...
It took a moment before all the ships were reached by the beacon. Due to the nature of their own combat strategies, as well as the particular nature of hyperspace, it was entirely impossible to effectively contact any of their ships directly while they were out in the battle. Therefore, the order to fall back had to be broadcast as a general signal, that each of the pilots could individually pick up as soon as they would keep still for long enough so that it could reach them.
By now, the battle was already won. None of the zodiatos' weapons were able to match the relativity canons in effective range and without the larger ships to back them up, their small hunters wouldn't be able to launch an offensive – shields or not. They could just stay back and fire until surrender now. As the signal was picked up, one of their ships after another disappeared in one last flash of hyperspace as they joined back up with the larger vessels in an enclosing formation.
“Prepare for the retrieval of some of those projectiles,” the Vice-Admiral then ordered as he hoped they would be able to track some of those spent shots their enemies had fired. They would have to figure out what kind of tech that was.
In such a small-scale conflict, it was more than manageable to face it. However, it could offer some difficulties in larger fleets – especially since they didn't know how far this kind of tech could possible be expanded and refined. It was quite possible this was just some form of prototype.
While that order was followed, one of his Lieutenants suddenly spoke up.
“Sir, we have an incoming transmission from the planet. Civilian. Not encrypted, but they seemingly had an access code,” they related quickly.
“Is the earlier interference cleared up?” he immediately asked back, to which the answer was positive. “Put it through then,” he immediately ordered as soon as he heard that.
He rubbed one of his tight braids between his fingers as he waited for contact to be established. Once the line was clear, things remained quiet for a moment.
“What are we best at?” he then asked the silent line, his chest tightening ever so slightly, even if he didn't have to wait long for a reply.
“Topping from the bottom,” a very familiar voice replied from the other end, sounding incredibly strained but most certainly alive.
The code phrase was an old in-joke about something that had been said back during humanity's first contact with the tonamstrosites due to a slightly choppy translation. However, it more than sufficed here to tell Kazadi that the person on the other side of the line was not only genuine, but also not in any immediate distress – at least none that was brought onto her by someone else.
“Good to hear your voice Ma'am,” he greeted the Admiral after taking a brief moment to allow his heart to settle.
“The pleasure is all mine, Celestin,” Admiral Krieger replied in between heavy breaths that sounded like a combination between being ready to collapse and absolutely willing to tear anyone's throat out at a moment's notice. “Excuse me for the unorthodox contact, my own means of communication have all been destroyed. Update me.”
A brief smile played on the Vice-Admiral's lips.
“No problem, Ma'am. Things are under control up here, but multiple allied coluyvoree ships were destroyed and we suffered some casualties of our own which I will take full responsibility for,” he quickly complied. “By now, the enemy crafts have been largely disabled and our fighters are falling back. What's the situation on your end?”
There was a bit of a grunt from the other side of the line that seemed unrelated to the ongoing conversation.
“I'm sure you did everything by the books,” Krieger then replied a moment later. “Down here the situation is precarious but momentarily under control. We have an unconfirmed number of casualties after an attack with an unknown weapon. All squads are either KIA or unresponsive. We took down six enemy combatants but can't confirm if there's more. I'm going to need clean up, rescue teams, as well as pickup for me and two large offworlders asap.”
Celestin nodded.
“We're in a stable position, so we'll jump teams down right away. Hold out just a minute more,” he assured her while already signing in the necessary order to the troops they had on standby. “How bad are your injuries?”
There was another groan of pain from Krieger's side.
“Crushed cranberries,” she replied after a long moment that sounded like she needed to catch her breath.
“Copy that,” Kazadi replied with a grimace. “Sending muti-team with the evac.”
“Copy that,” Krieger confirmed. “Krieger out.”
With that, the call was hung up. On his screen, Celestin could see how the preparations for dispatch of the requested teams was already well underway. Jumping towards a planet at FTL was generally discouraged by the Galactic Community. However, this was an emergency. They couldn't wait for normal re-entry.
After watching the reported progress for just a moment, his eyes returned to the ongoing battle. He watched the enemy ships as they hovered dead in space, unable to maneuver.
They seemed to have recalled their own fighters back in order to form some sort of protective wall around the 'mother ships' with their own small shields. Obviously it wouldn't be very effective, so it seemed like needless cruelty to make their own soldiers get in the way of the incoming fire. Something within Kazadi told the Vice-Admiral they weren't going to stand down.
“Sir, we're getting some strange hyperspace-readings,” his Lieutenant suddenly announced, making him look up.
“Weapon-grade?” he immediately asked, knowing they had less than a moment to react if it was. However, he also figured there would've been more urgency to their voice had it been so.
“No, Sir. Travel-grade,” the Lieutenant quickly replied. “However the readings are unusual. It seems like they are creating a stretch solely around themselves.”
Kazadi's lips shifted a bit as he took that in and he briefly ran a hand over his mouth in thought. “Prepare to collapse,” he ordered. “Maybe they will attempt some sort of running start. We can't let them get away.”
Right then, the light of what was happening had not yet caught up to the spacial distortion that their sensors were detecting, meaning the ships still looked perfectly normal – if damaged – when he looked at them. However, they were planning something. And that made them appear all the more ominous.
His mind quickly went through their own protocols. The U.H.S.D.F. employed hyperspace in nearly all its possible facets in their tactics. If it was even close to sensible, they would have something that was akin to the maneuver their foes were attempting to execute right now.
A bubble of hyperspace solely around their ships...a dodge? Hardly, there was nothing to dodge like that. An attempt to hide away? No, they knew human ships could collapse hyperspace from the outside easily.
Before him, the windows of the ship once again automatically dimmed, protecting the crew's eyes as the colorful light of the created hyperspace-bubble finally reached them.
“Hyperspace collapsed!” the Lieutenant then suddenly announced, causing Kazadi to blink in surprise as his eyes shot up to his screen. He hadn't given any order to collapse it yet. But indeed, it was gone. For a moment, he thought that the stress had caused his officer to use the wrong term in haste, however no, they had been completely right. It had not been dispersed in a controlled manner. It had collapsed.
In a mild 'thud', the Vice-Admiral's fist descended on the armrest, hand firmly clenched into a fist.
“Those cowardly ba-” he began to growl but then bit his tongue and released a low, almost grunting exhale while his fist quivered from momentarily clenching tighter. “Prepare to search for survivors,” he instead said in a much more controlled manner a moment later. “Preserve lives.”
“Yessir,” multiple of his officers echoed back as he looked out of the window, where he could still see the ghostly afterimage of the hyperspace bubble linger for a bit longer. It was always a strange feeling, seeing someone in the distance who was already dead...
–
With her view darkened and her goggles momentarily pulled off her eyes, Shida stared at the glowing bubble of impossible colors. Her sensors had already told her what was about to happen at any moment now, however her eyes still heavily constricted as they finally witnessed what unfolded themselves.
In what could be described as nothing else than a 'snap' , the light of the hyperspace-stretch instantly condensed down into its original size as the universe all at once remembered that the laws of physics were a thing that existed and brutally forced space to conform to them once again – no matter what may have been in between it and its original form.
Anything within the strange, round stretch was mercilessly ripped along with the convulsion, forcing all the injected warships and fighters into the single, small point that the stretch had been generated from. Though not even a faction of a second later, it all exploded outwards again as the megatons of mass realized that they could not all exist in the same place at once, since the energy of the event was not quite potent enough to press it all into a neutron star or singularity.
No longer recognizable blotches of undefined, white-hot matter were instantly scattered in all directions like some sort of micro-supernova that accentuated the sometimes still burning nano-stars that the earlier battle had created from the opposing fighters.
It was almost pretty...but still, Shida couldn't help but let her ears hang as she wondered how many of the enemy combatants had known about the decision to end things this way. Had any of them even been asked?
Even if it was the far more disturbing answer in a way, Shida almost hoped that this had actually been one mutual suicide-pact instead of the decision of one single commander to choose death over dishonor. Especially while sitting in a ship that was technically under the command of someone else herself, that was certainly the less immediately petrifying option – even if it would probably spell far worse things in the long run.
As she said there, the 'shockwave' of the collapsing hyperspace suddenly hit her, spreading out through space even without any medium to carry it and rocking her ship gently while also penetrating all throughout her body. Of course the earlier relativity fire had already caused similar ripples and she was therefore quite used to the feeling, however these ones sure felt a bit more severe than those of the U.H.S.D.F.'s own canons. It was like she felt her own body distort while also remaining perfectly in palace – almost like she was a stiff container full of water that someone had given a heavy smack from the side, riling up the liquid without it actually having any place to plash to.
According to everything they knew, this phenomenon felt incredibly odd but was entirely harmless to living beings – which was instinctively very hard to believe when one felt it on their own body.
However, her dwelling thoughts were, perhaps luckily, interrupted as she – or more precisely one of her scanners - picked up on a peculiar signature that one of the scattered debris pieces was sending out.
Well, it was 'peculiar' to her that there was a signal at all at first, however then she quickly realized what it actually was. This particular signal was hammered into any pilot's head six ways to Sunday, and so she reacted relatively quickly when she glanced at the grid and realized that she was the closest ship to it. Firing up her engines, she turned her ship on the spot in a slight drift before activating her generator and making a jump right behind the flying object.
Once there, she allowed her computer to take aim for a second before firing out a harpoon that quickly struck the flying debris and latched her ship onto it through a long cable, allowing her to pull the thing along with her after slowly using her backwards thrusters to disperse its speed little by little. Pressing the indicator of her communication, she then spoke up.
“Scratches to Sun,” she announced. “I just recovered a black box. Permission to return for inspection?”
The black boxes of modern ships truly were among the most ridiculous pieces of tech out there, in Shida's humble opinion. Built to withstand almost everything that would likely take a ship out through a combination of brilliant engineering and extremely flexible material that only worked in its indented manner on very small scales. Well, very small compared to the ships they were built into. The things were about half the size of Shida in the end. For many years, armies of scientists had attempted their very best to make this same sort of defense useful in ways that could maybe be used to protect actual people from catastrophic events – but to no avail so far. For now, the only thing those little marvels could allow to survive even something as ludicrous as hyperspace collapsing was information.
“Permission granted, Lieutenant-Commander,” the answer came almost immediately. “Return to hangar three.”
“Copy,” Shida replied. “Scratches out.”
With that, she moved her ship around and prepared for her jump back to the Sun. Hopefully this thing would give them some answers on what exactly this whole thing was meant to accomplish...
–
Far away in another part of the galaxy, a pair of mildly glowing red eyes was laser-focused on a large screen that was just one of many that had merged all over Nedstaniot-Station to broadcast the breaking news to anyone willing to lift their eyes at a slight angle to look at them.
An attack on a coreworld. And not just any coreworld. Gewelitten itself. Something like this hadn't happened in...well, Curi didn't even know how long.
Details seemed to still be incredibly fuzzy as the battle so close to the coluyvoree homeworld had either just happened or was still happening at the moment of the broadcast, however what few details were known were already repeated on end in an endless scroll of text that was meant to catch as many people up to speed as was at all possible through the medium of television. Obviously the same emerging details could already be looked up on the net as well to find them in a more digestible format than the endlessly moving text next to the not exactly top quality footage of the occurring conflict.
However, despite the speed with which it went by, Curi had no problem following the scroll as they stared at the screen intensely.
“Attack was unannounced. Multiple Gewelitten fleet ships destroyed. Official sources confirm: Humanity NOT the aggressor. Attacking ships presumed to be of zodiatos origin. Unknown weapon technology deployed during the attack. U.H.S.D.F. ships engaged in combat after aggression. Myiat delegation ship confirmed unharmed. Attack on government facility on planet simultaneous to spacial attack. Councilman-Candidate Aldwin confirmed unharmed. Status of U.H.S.D.F. General Krieger unknown. Status of Gewelitten Governor H. Cierrophai unknown. Status of Acting-Councilman Afuéhner unknown. Allied coreworld defense fleets activated and inbound. General alert level raised to 8. Hyperspace-travel shut down around the system.”
“Mother, oh no...” Mueen said with absolute shock in his eyes, both of his hands clasped over this mouth as his wide pupils quivered in fear from what they witnessed.
Curi could understand his worry. Though Moar had supposedly been with James, so she would probably be fine. The cyborg was certainly more than just a little relieved that James was already confirmed to be safe. Though the idea that Admiral Krieger's situation was unknown was more than just a little disconcerting.
Though despite the supposed lack of their commanding officer, it seemed like the humans had decisively won out in the battle outside of the coreworld's atmosphere; unknown technology or not.
Given the sub-par footage that some drone was likely recording from quite far away from the actual conflict, it was very hard to tell just what sort of weapon the unknown but presumed to be zodiatos attackers had unleashed there. It looked like some sort of emanating energy that destroyed what it came into contact with but also interacted with it as if it had a physical presence.
Curi had never seen anything remotely like it before – not even in their wildest theories – and their mind immediately wanted to go wild with speculations and ideas about how such a thing might work now that they knew for a fact that it was possible from seeing it with their own eyes.
However, the cyborg pulled themselves together and successfully forced the briefly almost overwhelming desire to focus on nothing else down as they shifted their gaze slightly away from the screen to look over at their other currently nearby company.
Then again, as much as they knew they couldn't let their guard down around him, Reprig's eyes were just as immovably attached to the large screen as Mueen's were as he witnessed the unfolding battle with quivering horror.
His trunk was wiggling wildly in his face and one of his hands nervously scratched over the plate of the table they were all sitting and standing at and on, right next to a piece of paper with a hastily drawn sketch of a spring-like mechanical leg that was inspired by what humans called 'running blades'. The Warrant Officer's weapon also laid on the table, pushed a but further away from his hand so he wouldn't be able to easily reach it.
Though despite his focus, Curi couldn't quite help but speak up after a moment of watching him. “A coreworld attacking another coreworld,” they said to the man, who they knew either had to know far more than they did about this – or would be far more invested in it unfolding. “This is unprecedented.”
Reprig seemed to notice that they were talking to him, however he still remained silent and stared a good few moments longer before finally pulling his gaze away from the screen.
As his eyes met theirs, he looked a bit sick. It almost reminded the cyborg of one of the first interactions they had with the man, back when they nudged him slightly to hand his spy-device back to him after he tried to hide it in James' cabin. Though this time, the cyborg was quite sure that they were not the reason why the man seemed like most of his blood was currently rushing into his stomach.
Could he actually be shocked about what was happening? Was this not part of the plan?
“Unprecedented doesn't even come close to describing it...” he mumbled and couldn't hold the cyborg's gaze for long, looking down to the table's plate instead. “And these aren't just any coreworlds. Osontjar and Gewelitten have been allied for an unimaginably long time. The thought that they would even think of attacking each other...what sort of madness could've caused something like this?”
Curi was the first to admit to themselves that they were far from the best at reading people. If someone with even a modicum of skill in acting wanted to make them believe something untrue about the person they were talking to, they would never deny that there was a good chance of that person succeeding.
Still, Reprig's reaction felt...genuine to them. As if he had actually never expected something like this to happen. Not in a million years.
Maybe it was just skillful acting. And Curi knew that they should have been suspicious like that. However, despite everything he had done, they couldn't quite bring themselves to suspect that he was lying at that moment.
“I know it is unlikely you will give me an honest answer, but-” Curi began to say, however Reprig was more than able to anticipate what they were going to ask and replied long before they were finished.
“No. No. Never,” the sipusserleng said, shaking his head heavily and standing his trunk up while making a denying gesture with his hand that was so brash that he actually knocked his crutch off the small outcrop in the table it had been laid down on. “This must be some absolutely deranged people, no two ways about it. To attack a coreword...”
Curi noticed Reprig's gaze briefly twitching down, his eyes jumping onto the personal assistant strapped to his lower arm as if he suddenly got the urge to use it for something.
Curi suspected he likely wanted to call someone; question them to make extra sure that they had, in fact, nothing to do with this. Though the sipusserleng suppressed the urge and pulled his eyes away, bringing them back up to the screen.
Just at that moment, the implosion of collapsing hyperspace suddenly lit up the footage moments before the glowing remnants of what once had been the zodiatos ships were scattered across the star-system.
Mueen mumbled something in his home's language as his eyes remained affixed to the screen. Curi couldn't even begin to guess what he was saying. However, his voice sounded pleading.
“Suicide instead of surrender?” Reprig meanwhile mouthed breathlessly as his nervous tick of excessively licking his trunk began to show.
Although he had often been otherwise employed in recent times, Curi could see it in the man's eyes that he was still, in a way, military at heart. He knew the general values and doctrines that were conveyed to the soldiers of the Communal Military, both inside and out. And the idea of someone choosing death like this...it seemed to rock him to his very core.
Slowly, he turned his gaze over to Curi. His eyes were almost pleading with the cyborg, even if they seemed to already know that his next question would be asked in vain.
“Could it maybe have been the humans and their-” he began, but this time, it was Curi's term to cut him off after anticipating what was coming.
“While humans very much employ the collapsing of hyperspace as a tactic in war, the process is not invisible – or even subtle. Had the human ships caused that collapse, it would've been noticeable,” they explained succinctly. “It could've still been a mere unexpected failure of the hyperspace generation, of course. However, with the rarity of such events, the timing seems...unlikely.”
“They weren't even trying to generate a real stretch...” Reprig concurred dejectedly and left his head hanging, his trunk also sinking down limply. “I can't even imagine- Well...I hope they will at least find peace now, away from the madness.”
Curi paused for a long moment, staring at the Warrant Officer some more. Admittedly, the cyborg was a bit confounded at something. They knew for a fact the man had put his own life on the line for his orders, with a very real chance that they would lead to his death, more than just once. And yet the idea of being ordered to die seemed to disturb him. They couldn't quite figure out the difference that led to the results in reaction being so incredibly different, however it was still very clear that there was one.
And it seemed to hit the man hard.
Self-admittedly, Curi didn't exactly pity the man. They didn't quite have the capacity to. They knew about so many horrible things he had done that simply seeing him distressed was far from enough to stir such deep empathy for him within them.
Yet still, they weren't left entirely cold by it either – and if it was only because he seemed to be affected by these events in the ways a, for a lack of a better term, 'normal person' would be. He was shocked at the sudden, seemingly senseless violence, and concerned about the people involved.
Granted, it was likely only because they were people he considered worth being concerned about, yet still, the reaction was so...'normal', in a way they didn't quite expect from someone with such a capability for unceremonious acts of cruelty and violence. Even this person who had tried to kill them, or at least had been entirely comfortable with them getting killed, was capable of such a reaction.
And Curi...wasn't sure if that made things better or worse, if they were being honest.
It felt better because there was the capability for empathy there, however...it felt worse because they felt how they had been and likely still were willingly denied said empathy.
He could have cared...he just didn't want to.
Curi shook their body heavily, causing mild sounds from the engines running their legs' movements from the sudden force as they tried to shoo away emotions that they really didn't want to be feeling at that exact moment.
The thing that mostly kept them from following up on some of their uncomfortably aggressive thoughts at that moment was the fact that Mueen was still with them, the worry for his mother written across his features like a deep engraving in a metal plaque. He did not need anything like that around him right now, that much was clear.
Slowly, they moved over to him and reached up one of their long legs to run it along his arm while he still covered parts of his large face with both hands.
“She will be alright,” Curi then assured the dark-furred rafulite, switching from their usual voice box to their more “melodic” one to put on a gentle, calming tone. “She is stronger than she seems.”
Inhaling deeply as his nostrils flared, Mueen closed his dark eyes and swallowed heavily, taking his gaze off the large screen for the first time in many minutes while slowly hanging his head down.
“Yeah,” he said, seeming to force hopefulness into his tone. “Yes, she'll be fine. She made it his far. This won't get to her.”
Curi nodded with their entire body and continued to run the tip of their leg along his arm.
“She will be,” they repeated, both to the man and themselves as their own eyes moved upwards, their gaze falling back on the battlefield riddled with burning remnants of matter. “I'm sure of it.”
–
Never in his life had James felt so drunk and so sober at the same time. His mind was entirely clear, running a light-year a minute as it desperately tried to simultaneously process all the admittedly little information that he had in his current situation AND to not absolutely freak out while doing so somehow – a task he was ludicrously failing at. And it did NOT help that his body could barely keep itself on his own two feet.
He had avoided completely fainting by a hair earlier after reminding himself that, instead of being terrified for Shida's life, it would be much more fair towards her to simply focus on trusting in her skills to carry her through. However, that was barely a little patch on an enormous crack in his facade as he couldn't help but go over and over and over the fact of how much worse the situation that she needed to jump into here had been for her simply because it was his damn birthday and they wanted to indulge over it. He should've stopped that, but noooo, he just had to go and let himself be swayed so damn easily, as if he was still that little boy following Koko around whenever she visited the compound to try and get some attention.
Of course, a quiet voice in the back of his head tried to politely remind him that Shida had, in fact, not only taken part in the festivities as well but also encouraged him to do so, however it was easily overpowered by the screaming rest of his mind.
He briefly glanced over at the only somewhat conscious Commander. When she said that they should match each other's drinks, that should've been the moment he stopped. She was like half his weight, what the hell was he thinking?
His mechanical hand shot up, heavily gripping a fist full of hair as he tried to force himself to focus. What's done is done. There's no changing it. He should focus on anything else right now.
Though as he painfully pulled on his hair like that, his eyes suddenly went wide as he noticed something. Or, more precisely, didn't notice something.
When had the alarm stopped? Just now? Or had it been out and he just hadn't noticed?
Letting go of his hair, he lifted his face and looked around. If the alarm was over, then that meant...
The uncoordinated movement of soldiers reaching for their phones and radios with different speeds went through the room, and after brief confirmation, the uniformed forces began to move, having seemingly gotten new orders other than guarding the safe-rooms. Apparently, the threat was over.
James quickly fumbled for his own phone, his barely coordinated hands struggling extremely with the simple task of trying to call one of his contacts – much to the frustration of his already cleared mind. His finger trembled as he swiped it across the screen, trying to get it to the right damn place to make a simple god-damn call.
However, he froze in the motion at a quiet sound that was immediately followed by a sudden stir behind him as multiple people seemed to move quickly. And after just a second, James was among them as well.
Nearly tripping over his feet, he damn near threw himself onto the sickbed that didn't stand too far away from him, his phone momentarily forgotten and eyes wide open as they stared over at an endlessly familiar dark face, that however had life in it for the first time in what felt like an eternity at that moment.
Slowly and twitchy, Nia's eyes fluttered open as she let out quiet groans while mildly stirring in place while her doctors and nurses hurried around her and quickly began to take her vitals.
After flinching heavily as a flashlight was quite suddenly shone into her eyes to test her photopupillary reflex, she began to move even more. Meanwhile, James and Tuya were basically pressed shoulder to shoulder close to the foot of her bed, the only thing keeping them from dashing right up to her face being just enough awareness to not get in the doctor's way.
Still, although her movements were very slow, stiff, and groggy, Nia eventually lifted up her head, looking around with still somewhat hazy and half-closed eyes. But that didn't stop her from smiling when her gaze fell onto the two who so nervously stood at her bedside there.
“Hey,” she said in a quiet, croaky, but still very much cheerful voice as her unkempt hair fell down both sides of her face.
Though James didn't see much more than that, because just about at that moment, his vision was entirely taking away by welling-up waters sweeping him along.
