Or hell, maybe you're just drunk. Maybe that 'clarity' you perceive is just the whiskey talking, but damned if it doesn't make a persuasive argument.

“Well, what do you think?” Carrina muses quietly from her chair next to yours. “You had enough yet?”

We aren't so idealistic to think we can fix things just by our actions, but nor are we so cynical to think they can't be changed at all. Humanity is a constant upward climb, and every little bit counts.

Well, it's been a while since the last thread, it's going to take some time to get the momentum back as people notice this is up and join in.

We should pick off where the last thread left off.
Pic related.

>>42624616
well you have been away for quite a while

We should drop a colony on Mars.

“Nah,” you sigh. “I can still feel my face.”

“That's not what I mean and you know it.”

You're forced to simply shrug. “I think some of us will listen, and that's all we could ever hope to achieve. After all, humanity has free will. It's almost inevitable that some will choose self-destruction over change.”

“So you're writing those people off?” Carrina asks quizzically, unused to hearing such resignation coming from you.

“I think we have to,” you admit. “We can't save everyone.”

She nods, before getting up out of her chair and heading towards the door. “Shall I see the Captain? Arrange for a full broadcast of all the information we've gathered?”

You ponder the question for a few long, tense moments. Full disclosure could mean massive unrest within the Federation, but at the same time telling the truth would put all public attention on your own team's future actions. You'd have made yourselves the only ones who have told things how they really are, and probably gained an even greater degree of public support. There'd be naysayers of course, but that's something you could probably handle.

The real question is how the Jovian and Mars factions would respond...
>Release it all. The human race can't choose its own fate without full awareness.

I was honestly expecting this thread to be cancelled to do another SSQ thread. Thank fuck it didn't.

>>42624784
>Release the climate and agricultural data. Maybe a common threat will encourage cooperation.

The Federation Charter is fucking stupid.

>>42624784
>>Release the climate and agricultural data. Maybe a common threat will encourage cooperation.
>The Federation Charter is fucking stupid.
It really is.

>>42624854
I was half-considering killing this quest, actually. In that eventuality I'd have started refining a Super Robot Wars-style quest where a few of the characters and machines here would show up, partly to finish off the story.

I decided to see how the next couple of threads worked out though before doing something like that.

>>42624784
>Release the climate and agricultural data. Maybe a common threat will encourage cooperation.
We don't really have any data on the Federation Charter. Most of what we have is just "this hidden thing exists", we don't know what that hidden thing is. It wouldn't have the impact we want, to just release the knowledge that something is being covered up. And honestly, from an OOC standpoint, what is being covered up isn't actually that important. It was just one little, mostly inconsequential clause that a crazy person killed his father to prevent from being in the official document. At this point the fact that something was kept from the public is a bigger scandal than what actually was in the charter.

>>42624784
>>Release it all. The human race can't choose its own fate without full awareness.
The Federation, the Principality, The Titansand the Vist foundation all tried to controll humanity trough information, wathever the future may hold we will not let it be controlled by the powerfull few alone

>>42624943
I wanna see an outtake where SoZ Haman confronts Canon Haman.

Althought it wouldn't be nearly as funny as watching Dr. Jay meet Dr. Jay.

>>42625083
Well, we kind of had that in the Hollow Man's creepy hallucinations. Though Haman didn't get a chance to talk back to her alternate universe self. That would be nice to see.

>>42624784
>>Release it all. The human race can't choose its own fate without full awareness.

>>42624784

No more lies or pompous but ultimately hollow 'ideals'. It's time to flip the table and wipe the board clean, a fresh start for humanity.

The problem is this actually lends credence to Zeon's derping around.

>>42624784

Woo, I'm here.
>>42625083
I...uh...kinda want this too.

>>42625163
the fact that zeon had a point or two does not justify all their shit

>tie detected, crafty writing applied

>>42625163
It only does if you don't reveal everything. If you don't tell the actual missing clause of the charter, then it makes the Federation look super corrupt. If you do, then while the Federation still looks corrupt, it also makes it clear that Zeon's actions were in no way supported by the Federation charter and they were, in fact, still huge douches.

>>42625251
We basically hold the inheritance of zeon in our hands anyway, ideologically we could crush zeon ideological support with the princess's speaking on the matter in consensus.

>>42624784
“Let's forget about the Charter,” you suggest. “Really, what does knowing that accomplish? So the current Federation government is a farce set up by ultra right-wing Earth supremacists. We always knew they were scum anyway, so let them consign themselves to irrelevance.”

“That's...” Carrina muses quietly to herself. “I'm not sure I agree. I may sound a little too much like Zeon Zum Deikun when I say this, but it may be best to wipe the ideological board clean.”

“You think so?”

Your Newtype partner nods thoughtfully. “And I know I'm not the only one who thinks so. You know that too.”

True, Haman and Artesia would probably both want the information revealed as well. But speaking of Zeon princesses, that just raises another issue in your mind that Carrina seems to immediately take note of.

“Something wrong?”

You nod. “Doesn't that kind of mean that the Zabis had a fair point?”

“Even a broken clock is right twice a day,” Carrina recites at you in response.

“Unless it's so broken it's missing a hand,” you observe. “Then it's just disconnected from reality. Kind of like the bloody Zabis.”

“Agreed,” Carrina nods, noting the logic behind your open mockery of the notion that the Zabis could ever be right about something deliberately. “But most people have seen what an approach like that of the Zabis will get us, and any rational person would want to avoid experiencing that sort of suffering again.”

“Paptimus and Bernini are rational too,” you counter. “Their goals are just different from ours.”

Carrina shakes her head. “So I guess that just means we'll have to come up with a good plan to kill them, then. Shall I ask the bridge to release all the information, or not?”

For a few long moments you remain in silent thought. The memory of Titans greets you, the way they suppressed dissent and controlled information to promote themselves and secure their base of power. The way they sought to control you and all other Newtypes by weaponizing them. Does complicity in this long-held lie about the origins of the Federation make you just as bad as them?

No, it doesn't... but it's entirely too close for comfort.

“Do it,” you order, and Carrina gives you a grin before making for the bridge.

I'm just not sure it's viable to release data on the Charter. We don't have any proof, here. All we have is the word of one of the main conspirators, and it's not like we can verify that. I'm worried it will be too easily dismissed and covered up again.

You also have access to Old Man Vist's personal files, and his assistant/manservant knows where the Box is. You can provide plenty of evidence if prompted.

>>42625800
You're on his bloody ship, anon. He left the issue entirely in your hands.

Granted that was what, like eight months ago? Maybe more?

>>42625844
Oh, we got it when we got the ship? See, I did not pick up on that. I remembered him saying that he wouldn't tell us what the missing clause was and took that to mean he wasn't going to give us the information to find it ourselves, either. Clearly I didn't get it. Well alright, then, let's rock. And then when this is all said and done pick up Banana so we can hold him a party in the epilogue as an apology for removing his role in the plot.

“ALICE,” you announce to the room around you, knowing that the AI was always listening in even if she wasn't paying you direct attention.

Her response is predictably instantaneous. “Yes, sir?”

“I want you to schedule a shipwide readiness drill at 19:00 tonight,” you order. “Get Karen to approve it for me.”

“Anything else I can do for you, sir? I AM capable of processing over one hundred and fifty Command-priority tasks simultaneously.”

You nod. “There is. Put through a secure call to Cima Garahau.”

“Of course, sir.”

Patching through a genuinely secure long-range transmission takes several minutes, and when it finally connects ALICE warns you that a dust cloud between you and the receiving station may cause some interference.

“I take it this isn't a social call?” Cima greets you rather playfully.

You lean forward over your desk, resting lightly on your arms before responding. “Sorry, wish it could be.”

“Flatterer,” she accuses. “So, what is it?”

“Well,” you find yourself frowning, “I wanted to give you advance warning about a little broadcast of mine.”

“You're finally going public with the agricultural projections?” she asks, suddenly sitting up straighter in her own tiger-skin-clad chair. “That certainly is a surprise.”

You shake your head. “It's not just that.”

It takes only a few moments to explain why you're telling the whole human race that the world government is a sham, and it doesn't do much to convince yourself that it's the right thing to do. To her credit Cima waits quietly for you to finish speaking.

“I'll be ready to make sure the Republic's hawks don't ruin everything,” she states simply. “But think you're doing the right thing, even if you don't seem to agree.”

“It was that obvious?”

“Painfully so. I know that look in your eyes.”

You decide to change the subject before you both dwell on Cima's past for too long.

“So how about you and me go on a date?” you suddenly ask. “I was thinking a nice trip out to Axis to see the sights.”

“Actually, I was already planning to be in the neighborhood,” she tells you cheerfully. “I also have something planned for you, young man... it's going to be one hell of a show.”

Something about the way she phrased that causes a twinge of worry.

I wouldn't mind Cima cutting in while a tango is going on with our fleet and Paps or Bernini.
Anyway, how likely is it for Mars Axis or Scirocco's faction to woo each other like with Jamitov approaching Haman's Axis Zeon in canon Zeta?

I may have just joined in and unfortunately I'll have to be somewhere later, so I'll probably miss most of the thread.

The battle itself will likely take 2-3 threads.

>>42626262
“Well then,” you announce playfully. “Sounds like we have ourselves a date. I'll be leaving myself in your capable hands.”

Cima rewards you with a devious laugh. “And maybe we'll find some time to fight together, too!”

With that, the comm fades out.

“ALICE, please put through a call to Amuro Ray for me.”

“Of course, sir.”

A few minutes later you're welcomed by a much cleaner-looking image of a tired Amuro Ray.

“Did I wake you up or something?” you ask curiously.

He yawns. “They had me on a night shift, but it's no big deal. Why're you calling me?”

“Turn to the news,” you suggest. “You'll see pretty quick.”

After watching the broadcast in stunned silence, Amuro finally manages to find his words. “So, I guess you went and did it?”

“Did what?”

“You've finished Zeon's job for them,” he stares at you, and you can hear a tone of accusation.

>>42627144
“Think about it, Amuro,” you insist. “You heard what Haman and Artesia were saying, didn't you? They're completely right. Fault lies with the extremist camps in both Zeon and the Federation for lying to their people, for guiding them into the war for their own benefit, and among the people for embracing those lies out of their own fear and mistrust.”

“We all got ourselves into this mess, and we all share the burden of getting ourselves out. That's the truth, and the whole human race needed to hear it.”

Amuro shakes his head. “And Zeon will claim that they were right.”

“Doesn't mean anyone will listen,” you counter. “We made it clear that Zeon didn't know that the Federation was as corrupt as it was, that their decisions were as solely self-interested as anyone else involved.”

After a heavy sigh, Amuro seemingly admits defeat. “I never took you for an ideologue.”

“Only when it comes to ousting other ideologues.”

Tell me,” he muses. “Since it seems like we're in for one hell of a fight, and we may not get a chance to discuss it... there's a personal issue that's weighed on my mind.”

“Go ahead,” you sigh, fairly certain of what he's about to ask “It'll just weigh you down in a fight, and you don't need that.”

“Have you... you know,” he begins awkwardly. “Slept with Sayla? I mean we've been exchanging messages, and I kind of got that impression...”

“No,” you tell him rather firmly, “I slept with Artesia Som Deikun. One time. And it was her idea.”

“And would you do it again?” he asks.

“She hasn't asked,” you reply. “But if she did I'd see no compelling reason not to. We're all adults here, and it's her choice.”

He nods. “Okay. Thank you for your honesty.”

“So... you're okay with this?”

“Surprisingly, yeah. I think I am.”

You nod quietly, satisfied at the way Amuro seems to be handling news that his former girlfriend slept with the Federation's other Newtype ace.

“Good. I assume we'll be working together against Mars?”

Amuro shrugs. “Your CO and mine are coordinating this afternoon, so yeah.”

>>42628422
He wouldn't have to do much. Axis is already coming to Earth orbit, he'd just have to stop its deceleration a little bit and it will hit.

>>42628224
“You wanna talk to Char?” you ask. “You don't have to answer.”

“Sure,” he sighs. “May as well.”

“You know what name he's going by these days?”

Amuro shakes his head and admits he doesn't, and that he hasn't heard from his old rival for quite a while. The fact that he's gone silent like this leaves you both nervous that perhaps he's considering some extreme measure like dropping a colony on something.

"ALICE? Any suggestions?"

There's a momentary pause. "My default solution would be electronic intrusion on a massive scale."

You thought as much. "How about you, Amuro?"

He shrugs. "Why ask me? I never made a habit of visiting brothels."

"I guess you'll have to just send out a general message then, ALICE," you sigh. "Hey, Char? This is Captain O'Hara, we need to talk, buddy. Contact my ship so we can coordinate our efforts."

ALICE broadcasts the message, and then re-broadcasts it five minutes later. All you get in response is a message from a nearby cargo hauler telling you to stop spamming their comms.

We'll give him the chance to keep from getting that adorable story from when he was 12 told to everyone. Don't piss off people who are friends with your little sister, Casval.

>>42629038

Our patience is gone now.

If this doesn't work, then allow Alice free reign in finding Char. He's too important of a player to leave unknown.

"ALICE, kindly do your thing and open a communique across all civilian and military frequencies."

After a moment, ALICE responds. "Done."

"That was fast," Amuro comments, clearly impressed.

"I left an entry the last time I hacked very satellite in the Earth Sphere," ALICE tells him, and you can hear a distinct note of pride in her synthetic voice.

"Alright, Char. If you don't contact me in the next sixty seconds I start telling the entire Earth Sphere every embarrassing little thing from your childhood, one story at a time," you threaten. "Starting with that time you were twelve, and you..."

"Captain," ALICE interrupts. "I am receiving a high-priority message, sender is unknown. Origin is unknown."

"Well then," you reply. "Sorry, everyone. Another time, maybe."

ALICE's avatar nods to you. "You are on a secure channel."

"You. Dick." Char glares at you, clearly angered.

You shrug. "You were ignoring me. I don't like being ignored, Casval."

"What do you want from me now?" he asks tersely.

>I need to know how you plan to fight in a week or so.
>I want to know where you are.
>I thought you and Amuro might want to talk again before it's all over.
>Your sister and I made hot, passionate love together. How DOES that make you feel?

That last one's a joke, unless you especially want to taunt Char for some reason.

I just assured the Federation’s downfall, and we're about to crush the remnants of Zeon. I want to make sure we're on the same page, what are everyone's goals are, and that we're coordinating correctly. One small mistake and Axis crashes into Earth.

>>42629676
Good ol' Char trolling, how I've missed you. You don't get to see it happen in the other Gundam quests.

>>42629676

Several things really; your opinion on the information we released, where you stand in this clusterfuck of a situation and I thought that we could all get our grudges and ill will aired and sorted. After all, Nobody wins if we end up in a free-for-all in the bowels of Axis as it crashes down towards earth...

“We need to start working together here, Casval,” you tell your old target for abuse, again using his given name. That seems to put him distinctly off balance. “I don't think that the Jovians or Mars Zeon are going to give up quietly.”

“Nor did I take you for the type to do nothing at a time like this, Char,” Amuro adds. “What exactly have you been doing all this time?”

Char looks at you skeptically, before giving you a half-answer. “The same sort of machinations your friend the Captain here has.”

>What do you mean by that?
>Surely you've come up with some sort of plan?
>The political landscape has changed so much your plans are probably outdated.

"I'm going to assume you don't mean that you fucked my sister."

>>42630165
Also, sorry that was kind of short. But some stuff needs taking care of on my end real quick.

>>42630165
>What do you mean by that?

>>42630165
I'm going to assume that means saving humanity, both Earthnoids and Spacenoids. And Earth if possible since we're still reliant on her.

We each still need to spell out what we plan to do, to make sure we don't trip over each other.

So Char has been developing an OP Newtype Mobile Suit and strengthening the bonds with his Newtype crew... Does Char have a Newtype crew or is that exclusive to Amuro, Us and Papa Smurf?

What, Char pulls of his mask and revelas he's really Papsmear in a 'It was me, Dio!' moment?

>>42630390
He and our sister also got drunk and had sex. Which was really weird for her the next morning, because if I remember correctly she's gay.

>>42630165
"So that could be taken in a number of ways," you admit. "Not all of them necessarily useful or relevant, so you'll have to be clearer."

"You've been working on a Psychoframe," he continues. "Pezun inherited Titans' efforts on that front, and they needed a pilot for it."

You suppose it makes sense that the Titans would have a back-up development site, and that Tachibana would be in a good position to lay claim to it. But for what purpose?

Amuro is the first to voice your concerns. "And why exactly did Pezun need such a thing?"

"As a deterrent, I believe," Char explains. "Though I will admit, I have been having a few wicked thoughts about what I might accomplish with such a weapon at my hands."

"Working together, we may just be able to make a clean sweep," you suggest. "Or were you thinking a different sort of wickedness?"

"The latter," Char admits. "Though now I am unsure... and I'm also concerned what machinations you have begun aside from the Psychoframe."

We should mention this right before we cut comms. On a totally open channel. 'I BANGED CHAR'S SISTER'

I vote against being a dick about our activities with Artesia. It would be inconsiderate to her.

Yes we will share...

>>42630948
Has a fair point, I retract what I said.

>>42630732
"Tell us about it," you suggest. "We'll share notes, and you can decide what kind of world you want to create."

Char seems to think quietly to himself for a few moments before coming to a decision. "Come to Pezun, and we will plan the assault on Axis together. At this point you do not need to know of my alternative... it would no longer have meaning anyway, in light of what I've heard today."

He then abruptly terminates the call, leaving you alone with Amuro and ALICE's images on your screen.

"That was unusual," Amuro frowns, seemingly perplexed. "Out of character, I mean... I've never known Char to give up on a scheme before."

"Well," you admit, "it seems like a rational enough step to take. I guess I'll ask Karen to change course."

"You didn't tell him about his sister," Amuro observes. "I'd imagined you would, just to rile him up."

"No need," you sigh. "He'll find out sooner or later."

And that's all I have planned for tonight, as the major players have taken to the field. I'll be back next Sunday for the planning phase and opening shots of the final battle, so look forward to that.

Archive is up, and thanks for turning out!

>>42631146
Thanks. Can can you let us know what time you are thinking about starting a day ahead of time? I overslept because of that.

>>42631146
Cool, I'll be there. Glad to see this back, Hearts. Thanks for running.

>>42631146
Thanks for running KoH, see you on Sunday.

>>42631208
Sure thing. I forgot the day before message... also the time difference fucked me up a little.

Still not used to the whole schedule here.

>>42631217
Glad there's still an audience. It's a good kinda feel.
