Idiotic Word Games
[Sent after very carefully setting up Psychic Protection II to exclude Kinji, just in case.]
While we're sharing information, our inestimable communications analyst Kanji Tatsumi has shared an intercepted communication from some of the locals searching for Dara. It's couched in confidential terms, but frankly it's barely encoded...unless the obvious cipher is a decoy. Here's the message in its entirety, with the obvious code words conveniently emphasized:
"OPERATION COLORLESS GREEN critical update - Suspect operatives from WESTMOST KOREA GARDEN who knew FURIOUS IDEA are protecting it from ALEXANDROS. In addition, further information about HEARTBEAT discovered. Will dispatch SILENT CHARIOT with further details.
"Urgently request communication to FLYING RAPIER under ATHENA GIFT protocol."
Most of these are simple: COLORLESS GREEN is the operation name, which means FURIOUS IDEA must be Dara. COLORLESS GREEN IDEAS SLEEP FURIOUSLY probably refers to the particular intelligence she has and that certain people want.
WESTMOST KOREA GARDEN would normally have me cracking into an atlas, or craving kimchi, but I think I can get it from context. Munghungwa Dynamics is Dara's former place of employment, if I'm not mistaken. They're a century or so's romanization drift from what I know as Korea's national flower, the Mughungwa, or Rose of Sharon. Either that or this is about mung beans, which are still culinarily Korean/Chinese and still making me hungry.
ALEXANDROS is a Greek word meaning "Defender of Man". This almost certainly refers to the ESDF. Likewise, ATHENA'S GIFT could be said to be wisdom...or the more specific mythological reference, the Shield of Aegis. It's...it's AEGISCorp. Very obviously.
HEARTBEAT would seem to indicate Doki Doki no Gakuen, the school at which the previous Jaunt in this world occurred...and where people met Dara to begin with. While that might be interesting, it could more metaphorically refer to S. Tech or the Emodriver frames. We should still probably check in on our alma mater.
The only one I'm stuck on is FLYING RAPIER, but that's likely a warship, perhaps the (Prince) Valiant? Or maybe the Aurigans' Sword of Empire?
The most interesting word here is SILENT CHARIOT, though...the "Auriga" constellation is of course referred to as "The Chariot"...and therefore a silent chariot would be an Aurigan spy.
Given this and other revelations, I think we need to speak to "David Texxant" at the earliest possible opportunity. And while we're at it, we need to make sure to investigate Munghungwa if we want to find Dara.
Of course, if I'm entirely off here, anyone is free to correct me. The more brains are on detective work, the faster it goes, after all.

And... not really. I de-infiltrated Alcuin last week because he knows space medicine and I thought he could help figure out the whole bioweapon thing... but then the Empire showed up above Phobos and he... he wasn't there anymore. Like we have a bond from the Jaunt where he was my Pogemon and I couldn't feel it. And when Paix II, the guy he was Infiltrating as, showed up to my hanger a little later he... I mean he was cute and blond and French but he wasn't my Alcuin.
When Alcuin was a little kid, these guys from over the border raided his village and basically wiped it out. He only survived because Anafiel was there visiting and he had a horse and at the first scream he put Alcuin in front of him in the saddle and started riding hell for leather.
So like. I get why this would send him out of ambit. Especially since the two Jaunts before were pretty hard on him. I just... I feel like it's my fault, I guess.

Telling you it's not your fault probably isn't gonna help all that much, is it? I mean, I'd probably feel the same way in your place. But I'm sorry you lost him, and I'm sorry it was under such shitty circumstances.

You've got to wake it up. Or pull it into the foreground.

Me too.
I guess I know what I'm researching next.
