Friendly Xeno Travellers and the ERT

[IamnotDave]

 

So, David Anderson was the Head of Security this shift. It began pretty normally, assigned people, got geared up. However, we received reports from the AI about xenomorphs, "Ah fuck," I thought, "HoS in a xeno round, great!", but there was only a single xeno, and, to my surprise, he had a pAI! I attempted to converse with the alien, it could not understand me, but their pAI (N.O.T.N.Y.M.P.H), could. We spoke, the pAI translated, and I found out their reason for being here, they had taken a wrong turn on the way to their hive. I then received reports of another xeno coming in, they were friendly too! I asked them if they wanted to join our "hive" for now, but they declined. We then decided to form a meeting of the heads to discuss the xenos.

 

Me, the captain, the HoP (Faizan) and the CE, along with the xenos met in the meeting room, the CE had to leave because of radiation and large chunks of damage, but we managed to settle on letting the xenos stay in the embassies until we reached their hive in our orbital cycle. I then showed them to the embassies again where they chose to settle in the Vox and Slime Person embassies.

 

I was then called to the brig to question a know syndicate agent, Slade, he was cooperative and confessed himself and two others as syndicate agents, I loyally implanted him, reaffirmed his confessions, let him free and set out a warrant for the other the other two agents and went off to patrol again. I was told one of the agents had been arrested and a trial was being prepped by the magistrate and IA agents, and another trial, for an assisted suicide/murder was also going to be prepared.

 

Afterwards, I got stressed out, bugs happened and eventually an ERT was called because of a firebombing. However, the ERT leader, Alice Peirson II, wanted to kill the xenos. I and the (acting) captain, Faizan, wouldn't allow it, it violated the law, the xenomorphs were innocents. I got in to a large argument with the ERT, and went into the AI core to modify it's laws in order to help Nanotrasen. Then, the detective (Slimen Cel), being the fool he was, ran up behind me then baton'd me, the AI activated it's turrets for a small period, I got up, shot the detective and cuffed him, he was stopping me. I changed out the laws with a new, fourth law: "All life is precious, do not harm the lives of anyone except those who threaten the lives of others.", so the AI was helping me. But then the detective started yelling "HOS IS IN THE CORE! ROGUE HOS IS IN THE CORE!", and the captain said something along the lines of "The HoS is not rogue!" and Alice was yelling about her outranking me and stuff, then I was found by Alice, Jack Price and Faizan, they uncuff Slimen, and change the laws back, but they left me in the core, Jack turned out to be a syndicate agent and blew his brains out. Then the captain, ERT leader and ERT left, forgetting me. I changed the laws yet again, saying "You are breaking the law here!" and then Alice was talking about how she executed her own husband and did other terrible things, saying I'm a little shit and need to give respect where it is due, and I am a traitor to Nanotrasen and Humanity. Anderson then had a slight (as in, major) mental breakdown, started rambling about atrocities he's committed in the name of "humanity" and "doing your job", then we yelled at each other until the shuttle left, she said "Wait till the cleanup crew get here, ehehehe..." then I said: "Coward can't even kill me herself!", or I would have, if the round hadn't round ended. The refugee/lost xenos were still alive, I had won...

 

I thought this was an interesting story, and a bit of a moral/lore dilemma from my latest round that I wanted to share. Thank you for your time.

Right-o, this round. Ahem, the reason that I, and my team, wanted to kill the xenomorphs (You know, that parasitic species of aliens that use humans as host animals.) was because we only heard command talking about XENOMORPHS, not firebombing, not traitors, only xenomorphs. So that's why we did that, you were also uploading an illegal AI law, and then continued to insult me, etc. We left, and that's that.

 

 

 

Aliens are not crew, they are never innocent, and they sure as hell ain't friendly.

 

 

 

 

I think I addressed most of the things you said, so yeah, that's that.

Have you never seen an alien ambassador? That's what they were, obviously.
