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.

Pisdyets!

I swear that Fate, or something, is conspiring to get me completely prohibited from the Cafe Marlinea!  I only went because Kostya sounded so urgent in his request for me to meet him.  The last time I was there I punched that Khanid whore.  This time I drew a gun on Aria Jenneth, or at least someone who looked like her.

It is somewhat confusing - according to Constantin, Aria committed suicide, apparently with the intention of transferring to a new clone, though it is not clear why exactly.  However, by all accounts she was murdered before she was able to do so, or so it seems from the circumstances of her body.  Captain Shutaq believes it may have been what he termed a "clone-jacking", by an individual named Vesper, Aria's former alter-ego, a notorious Cartel operative.  Fortunately, Aria, or whoever she is, came peacefully, and force was not required.  We had left before station security even arrived.

Station security!  How quaint that the proprietor of the cafe roused them.  I doubt there would have been much they could do, except make the situation worse.  No doubt, of course, Directrix Aspenstar will over-react now that that is two of her employees I have threatened.  I should imagine I shall be forbidden to dock or enter any LUMEN facility.  Not that I care.  She will likely punish my innocent Constantin also, perhaps sentencing him to not be within the presence of any one carry a side-arm in the same star system.

Captain Shutaq will get a strongly worded letter of reproval.

We took Aria to the LUMEM Medical facility.  I must say I was surprised  I was actually permitted to enter, but I was soon relieved by their own security, who fortunately took the potential threat quite seriously.  I would have been satisfied enough to have departed at that point, but Constantin seemed to prefer me to stay, and I could not leave him alone with someone who was in all probability a psychotic murderer.  Aria made some comments about her restraints looking rather incongruous on her slight frame.  I suspect she was attempting to fool us into underestimating her.  It did not work.

Then the Khanid whore walked it.  I should have expected that of course, her being LUMEN'S Doctor.  Constantin wisely decided it was time for us to leave, but not before she got one or two little sarcastic comments in.  Samodovolnaya suka!  I would be more than happy to oblige her if she wants a bullet in the back of her head.

Constantin also mentioned that Lady Llyr appears to be reacting very angrily to her ex-lover's actions.  I cannot say I blame her, and personally I see taking it out on Sansha's minions a healthy release, but nevertheless he is concerned.  I promised him I would try to talk to her.

We are going to do a little shopping for our apartment.  It is extraordinarily sweet!
