[ The camera cuts on, and Jude stares at it for a few seconds. He hesitates, before leaping right into what he wanted to discuss here. ]

I realize because of our actions while we were stuck on the moonbase that we've changed things here on Earth, but just because the environment in Exsilium is different I think the chances are pretty high that the United Earth will come after us again now that we're back on the planet. And as far as I know we don't actually have any reliable means of uncovering any plots against us. There's no telling when and how they'll strike, and even if there was... do we even have any plans ourselves on how to deal with it? Unless we have advance warning and several days to move people back up to the moon I haven't heard about any ways to protect the Transports from the United Earth.

Besides that, I can't be the only one that would like to think of a defense plan that would protect the citizens of Exsilium as well.

Either way, if you want I'll try to keep you posted on any defense or escape plans I'm involved in or catch wind of.

I guess. But I'm not a soldier.

[cradlerobbed]

To be honest with you? I'm not either, but even us civilians can do something to help out. At least, that's what I'd like to think.

[lazyinlove]

Not interested.

[ A beat. ]

Earlier didn't you said you wanted to help as long as it wasn't actually getting involved in the war?

I'm not defense guy or plan guy. I

I tried to help some people before and it didn't work.

I'm sorry, I didn't know.

....but just because something didn't work out before doesn't mean you should never offer up your help again. I'm not saying you have to help me with this either if you don't want to, just that in general you shouldn't limit yourself because of past failures.

[lazyinlove]

just tired of watching people get hurt by things that are supposed to help them.

[cradlerobbed]

I can understand the feeling. I'm not sure there's much else we can do though, because doing nothing at all would probably end up worse for us than trying and failing to help each other out.

[And thus, frustration.]

How did people let things get this fucked up?

[cradlerobbed]

I wish I knew.
