Damn Psychs.
Telling me to journal my thoughts if the needlepoint doesn't help you focus. So I take the book, write, then put it away, now come back and read it. Frakking embarassing. Psychs said it would be. Hate them so much.
But needlepoint won't fix this. Shattered Castle. They're Shattered Castle and I'm up here. And there's no reason I should have gone with them and that fact doesn't help. I want to be down there and I am not because.. there is no reason. They'd have to reschedule me to go on that job and that was more than my expected need. That job just went to hell. Survivors guilt? Espirit de corps? Damn Psychs. Feel like Mallas pacing his bed in Sickbay like a caged jaguar.
Parajumpers dropped. I'm living on a Battlestar now, that's certain. Air Wing primary and stand out of the way Corpsman.
Jenas down there. She's set, ready and been with this group longer than me. Woman jumps out of Raptors under heavy fire, parachutes down like a thunderbolt from Zeus to help keep those walking pincushions alive, and she was impressed when I showed her the P90. That's comedy.
Nevermind. Shattered Castle Personnel
Cpt Amos Ommanney- OIC all the way. Which way to the gates of Tarterus, sir? Libran Veteran and combat leader Will of the gods on the battlefield and aim. Still have to complete joke. Find him a beautiful woman.
LC Brina O'Connell-MP Gutsy, determined. Don't know that well, but likely will in this war. Pulled one slug already.
Cpl Edward Fischer- Don't know the Corporal.
Cpt Iphigenia Arden- Lady Arden, Ships Chaplain. Exactly who you would send on this mission. Before everything went wrong.
Cpt Samtara Nadir- CMO. Same thing.
Staff Sergeant Ajax Varis-Rifleman, Someone else to meet.
Ensign Silvia Kostas- A harder piece of Cancerion Marine does not exist as far as I have seen. Ares, Captain Ommanney, to her, and cover your zone, it's time to move.
Sergeant Lleufer Ynyr-No idea where he's from. MP. I met him on pure Espirit de corps. I've fought beside him. Deathdealer, Sharp.
Sergeant Cooper Knox- Wirelo Skinjob. Referred to as a 'Six'. Easiely the most common Skinjob I've run into since coming here. Always been something standing between me and speaking with him. Strange wartime circumstances. Skinjobs. Whole can of worms I haven't really opened yet.
Private Anthony Mallas-Rifleman, Nice kid. Likeable. Walking death machine. Young man fueled by hate of the enemy who offers the schrapnel pulled from him as sacrifices to Ares. Hardcore. I've buried so many like him.
PO2 James Kalum-Parajumper. Inserted in latest op. Don't really know him. Seen him on mission. Again, ships not that large.
PO2 Afton St James- Parajumper. Inserted in latest op. Complete unknown.
PO2 Jena Cruz- Parajumper, inserted in the latest op. First friend here.
Various civilians factor into the tactics. I'm not worried about them, nor the CMO and Lady Arden. Simple facts are they make it or not. I know many of these people, enough to know one thing. Before any of the Civvies are touched, the Cylons will make their way through the Marine corpses. Those Marines will tear Thanatos a new arsehole on the way down.
Just open a hole. Just let us get there to pull them out.
