You're where the Wild Things are...

An in-character blog set in the universe of EVE Online. These are the private diary entries of Lady Ekaterina Mariya deSilvestris, a minor Amarrian Noble and Capsuleer. Other existing characters within EVE will be referred to throughout, though any opinions and views expressed are those of this character. These entries may touch on or directly address mature themes such as violence, sexuality, race and ethnicity, and mental health. As noted, any views are those of the character.

Before we begin, I feel it important to say a few words on the subject of mental health. Ekaterina, or Ekat as many call her, is something of a troubled soul. This aspect of her character is a personal choice I have made, for very personal reasons. Although EVE is a game in which the players can immerse themselves to a greater or lesser degree as they wish, mental health is a very real issue for many people. Those two simple words cover a myriad different issues and concerns that affect people directly or indirectly every day all, over the world.

If you find yourself affected by any issues touched upon in these posts, or if you face your own troubles, please know that there are people out there you can turn to; doctors, friends, family - there is ALWAYS someone. If you are an EVE player, then Broadcast 4 Reps chat is available, staffed by wonderfully kind and good-hearted volunteers. If you know of someone who has mental health issues, then please just let them know you are there. It doesn't have to be anything big, just a smile, a cup of tea, a quick phone call about last night's game - just a little thing to show they aren't forgotten.

You Never Fly Alone.

Sasha is back!

I honestly thought Mama was going to suffocate him, she just would not let him go.  It was so sweet.  To think that he has survived some rather horrendous fighting against rebels and saboteurs, (I know he is primarily involved in Intelligence, but he did see some action), and then came close to being hugged to death by his own doting Mother.  She then attempted to explode him from the inside by insisting he had lost too much weight and that he had to make it back there and then.  Of course, Ankine was only too happy to get things under way in the kitchen.  She and Mother only encourage each other when it comes to ensuring people are well fed.

Felix had come to collect some items I had stored for him, and he had Ramina with him.  Felix took the opportunity to interrogate our poor little brother about his time planetside.  Sasha, of course, only had eyes and ears for Ramina.  It is rather cute, but I am not sure if Mother and Father would approve of anything happening between their youngest son and the daughter of family that have been our indentured servants for generations.  Still, if God Wills it...

Captain Elkin's celebration is tomorrow.  I am very much looking forward to being there, and to seeing Amadin, of course.
