Tranquility - the last transmission on the network was not a hoax. We have been boarded.

All non-combat personnel should keep to their quarters at the present moment. Further instructions will follow.

Note please that the boarders are able to hack all transmissions, including those which are highly encrypted. Do not discuss tactical information over the network. Do not discuss extraneous things. We do not know what will be of use to these brigands, and we need to deny them as much information as possible. Keep silent; keep vigilant; updates to come.

Where are you? Do you require assistance?

[jurisimpudent]

[At once:]

No. Stay inside.

[redhotsummers]

Yep, figured out that encryption thing.

Fuck.

[jurisimpudent]

It's of no great consequence. We've gone with limited communication before.

[cargojet]

Think you could add that for the time being they are safe where they are? The scale of the threat is yet to be established, and we need vigilance, yes, but not panic.

voice;

[jurisimpudent]

I...can add that, yes. I'd merely think that it goes without saying.

[supfirehawk]

Great. Just what we need, smart bandits.

audio

[jurisimpudent]

I'd not go that far.

[maneuver]

You people think those were highly encrypted?

[jurisimpudent]

Before I respond to you: name?

[northerner]

Fair enough warning.

[ ROBB ALWAYS KNEW THESE COMMS WERE USELESS ]

It should be easy enough to raise an alarm in emergency, should we have the need.

[jurisimpudent]

I doubt we will. We can handle them.

[sanguisdraconis]

Where are these intruders, at the present moment?

video;

[jurisimpudent]

We're still pinpointing their location. Take no risks; just stay inside. We'll tell you the route to safety once we know it.

[His voice is dry and sarcastic as he speaks, but he's on his way down to Security as he speaks. There's no doubt that Heine will shoot if provoked, whether permission is given or not.]

Permission to shoot if shot at?

voice;

[jurisimpudent]

[He frowns, but - ]

Granted, naturally, so long as you don't go looking for a fight.

[disheartening]

[ Pirates. Really? Regina had enough after Hook. We should all be grateful these ones aren't wearing leather. ]

These people already proved themselves to be fools. Still, fools can cause enough damage if inspired, I suppose.

[ still sitting in her room while pirates try to take what's hers is enraging her. ]

If you need any assistance, I admit I am not a fighter -

[ and she laughs, something deep and humorous and very ironic. ]

But I was a mayor. If there is anything I could do to help organizing and other efforts, I would do so. I care greatly for the well being of the people aboard this ship.

[ or not at all. but still. ]

[Edgeworth shows no flicker of amusement in response to that laughter; his face remains stern, even grim. Nevertheless, he does nod at her answer.]

As do I, ma'am.

If it comes to it, we'll be retreating to a single fortified position; your help, I expect, will be quite useful in maintaining order while everyone is confined.

[majestyofthethrone]

What if-

[The feed cuts off. She's scared witless. It comes back a moment later]

Okay.

[jurisimpudent]

[He takes the time to type as he's moving - ]

You can finish your question; I'll answer it as best I can.

[ all this should go without saying, but then the majority of people on this ship are civilians. so maybe not. ]

Not that I disagree, but who put you in charge?

( voice. )

[jurisimpudent]

I'm security team. Do you need something more than that?

voice

[humanistic]

Not that you have t' worry about me, but you might want to narrow that down a bit. Non-combat personnel, that's a bit of a loose definition.

voice

[jurisimpudent]

Right. People not security or gunnery.

[voice]

[blightphoenix]

You're Edgeworth, aren't you?

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

I am. You are?

(voice.)

[carbonite]

Also, you should probably not curl up into a little ball and cry.

(voice.)

[jurisimpudent]

No one is going to curl up into a ball. Or cry.

voice;

[darkholme]

Where are you?

[ she's not expecting a straight-forward response, but this is basically just to signify she plans on finding him ]

voice;

[jurisimpudent]

On my way to the office.

voice

[triedtobe]

[ He is so unimpressed with you right now... along with a lot of other people. ]

Maybe you should take a step back, think for a second, and shut the fuck up.

voice

[jurisimpudent]

[What the shit bro]

Excuse me?

voice;

[effusive]

Have they taken anything yet? Has anyone been hurt?

[ she wants to know what, or who, she needs to be protecting right now. ]

voice;

[jurisimpudent]

No one's been hurt. It's highly likely that they have indeed taken things, yes, but that doesn't matter; things can be recovered.
