Recount: Day 1

Madeline, give me a status update on the frigate.
Shields are down to 20%, all critical systems operational. We’ve sustained damage to docking bays, sick bays and air tanks 1 and 3 have been shut down. Hull condition is moderate at 49% Engines operational including hyperdrive.
Last night’s bombardment hit us hard eh?
Indeed captain
It happens Madeline, it happens. Initiate repairs and get ready for ship to ship battle.
What are we up against captain?
One called “Phantom”. She’ll be one of the toughest opponents we’ll have, alongside with Walkabout. She’ll be an exact replicate of this frigate, but with more firepower and shields.

Recount. It is something that we’ll try and carry out for 30 days, 15 at a time. It’s true that many times the most difficult battles to champion are that which we wage in our minds. As with the utility of the mod recount, for the next thirty days the wrestling of the mind will be recorded, not so much so for bragging purposes, but in attempt to maintain the right path.

Recount:

Noon time spotted more than a few interesting people. One particular one was gifted with legs. Instinctively thoughts drifted to High Warlord. Most likely due to the college photograph. I do my best not to drift there. It really appears a dead end, though ds differs (slightly). He says try and not be satisfied with status quo. I’ve tried to ‘move on’ in the sense moving on by not dwelling – but not being very successful.

Each time I spot any 'appeals' rather than gripe, I believe the right thing to do is to thank The Maker for the creation is a reflection of the beauty of The Maker. Appreciate the artist, not so much so the art.


Captain, it’s here.
Give me manual control for our turbo lasers. Rotate our bow 33 degrees from her stern. Draw 5% remainder shields from other sections and redirect to forward shields.
They’ve opened fire captain.
That’s fine, 20% shields with re-routed powers will hold. Once rotation is done, I’ll return fire.

And so the battle begins, Day 1 battle against myself. More people getting married. Definitely no surprises there. Choose happiness over grief, positive over negative. After all The Maker said He’ll look out for everyone, and that He doesn’t forget. Someday – Walkabout will be only a story to tell, looking forward to it.
