Not just that - Earth is a dark planet and they're doing some pretty unsubtle meddling there. This could possibly bring down some GOB response on their heads, if the protagonists don't kill them first.
Welcome to Estalia, gentlemen.
My money's on Emily.
Not that I'm complaining but what's with the sudden surge in activity in this thread after nearly a year of dead silence?
A new series came out and I remembered to post updates.
Speaking of which, litterbugs.
suprised some commenters called it all the way back here
That last comment makes me think Chiphu isnt someone I would want on any mission I was on.
Transgender. I like Emily pointing out how new gender dysphoria is in the public consciousness, and how she kind of missed that cultural update.
The Durns. So does this include spaceships, or just personal flight?
Ground-dwellers revolt!
Think of the mooks!

Honestly, that sounds like a planetary conflict in the making and an arms dealer's wet dream.
Think of the mooks!
Oh, almost certainly.
But before that, Emily needs to make a phone call. And reading between the lines, I feel so bad for Emily right now. What she's trying to do, fight against the aspects of herself that resulted in pushing her family away, is so, so hard to actually do.
Think of the mooks!
You are your own worst enemy, and it sometimes hurts most to realize it.
Think of the mooks!
It's how Emily shows she cares.
It does seem kinda rude to do that on an inhabited planet, doesn't it?
Think of the mooks!
Even if it wasn't rude, it's also a pretty big indicator that you're new to this whole "space travel" thing and might be an easy mark/victim.
Reminder: Offscreen Villainy does not count towards Complete Monster.
Think of the mooks!
Grab and shake.
These aliens have been on Earth for one night, and I still have no idea how the government hasn't scrambled the army to blow them up yet.
