I'm going to blame this on the star I nearly clipped jumping into a system. Nothing like arriving to hear the ship's computer announce "Fuel scoop disengaged." Why was it engaged. How many atoms of hydrogen did I pluck from that star when I exploded out of hyperspace past it.

Not perfect, since it's only three, but uh... That's a _very_ specific color combination, wouldn't you say?
The Strato Purple paint for the Lynx Highliner. It is reasonably evocative of the nonbinary flag's colors, with yellow, white, and purple, missing the black as a specific stripe.

Terfs need to shut up about womanhood, my mom was raised to believe all women were less valuable than men and cried when she learned about trans women because the idea that someone would fight that hard to be a woman was radical for her and meant it was something worth being

Doing this on an open world prospect means three of these things are just sitting in a wood cabinet in my house, now. It's fine. There's nothing to be concerned about. The Olympus region is tectonically stable! There's practically no risk! #Icarus
Tooltip from Icarus for a Bio-Warhead from the Broken Arrow mission. The initial tooltip is "Terraforming tool or catastrophic bio-weapon, you decide." The lore text is "Responsible for the so-called 'genocide' of Icarus's native life in the terrazone, each 'warhead' contains sufficient enzymatic material to 'adjust' a trillion tons of atmosphere. Handle with care."

Caves, as they say, of Qud.


You are being watched.

It's a familiar feeling. When someone has watched you in the past, when it's light that's betrayed your presence, you made a friend of the darkness. You pulled your hat brim low over your eyes. You stepped behind the cover of a thatched wall. But those who watch you now watch in spite of such simple obstructions. Their sight isn't mediated by the rays of a gleaming star or torch but by something much older. If there are ways to conceal yourself from these seeing eyes, if there are new kinds of darknesses to befriend, you know nothing of them.

Oh, also, the building aspect is reasonably nice. Once you figure out how to handle the risk of lightning strikes on wooden housing, it can get (and is designed to get!) reasonably cozy.

Naturally, there's the temptation to pack up and move to a new site (the second picture with the waterfalls) but that's a lot of work and I might wait until I feel like relocating to the much prettier Riverlands. #Icarus

While it's far from the kind of uber-base a lot of #Icarus players like to make, given the way my progress has been split up it isn't bad. Got a greenhouse, basic electric power, etc.
