"It will probably go to Sloane," Phoebe said, "Either be Sloane, Mantz, or the other Laney."
"Wait, didn't the Hunter Vanguard change twice this year?" James asked, "I swear, it went from Cayde, to Mark, to Jacob Laney."

"It's changed, certainly. Sloane has Titan to look after.. though we may as well shell the damned place. A darkness lives within those oceans.." [i]Judas murmured, then sighing.[/i]
-
"So, are we going to nuke it? Throw Phobos into it using a gravity weapon? Blow up Saturn and use Titan as energy?" James asked, interested.
-
"I'm unfortunately not the expert on high-powered weaponry.. Though.. Phoebe, what would you consider?" [i]Judas looked up, at Phoebe then. He already prized her for her knowledge.[/i]

-
"As long as we evacuate the Guardians upon Phobos and ensure that the nearby worlds are not effected.." [i]Judas noted, as something of a reminder.[/i]
-
"Right. I know Firebase Thuria houses crucible matches," Phoebe nodded.
-
"Exactly. Hmm.." [i]Judas murmured, sighing.[/i] "No matter. I doubt the Vanguard would initiate anything too.. drastic."

Delphi floated around, bored. James noticed his Ghost being so idle, "Anything wrong, Delph." "Just... trading data with Ganymede..." the Ghost replied. Phoebe looked to the Delphi with a concerned expression, "You really miss playing Dungeons and Dragons with Lunar and Puma, don't you?" The buttery voice of the Ghost echoed, "Yeah...."
-
"I suppose that this Lunar and Puma were close, then? Unfortunate, since my Ghost is.. where is Archimedes, anyhow?" [i]The reminder of Ghosts had then brought up Judas' own Ghost, whom had been gone for some time.[/i]
-
Edited by Splashback77: 2/4/2018 2:56:03 AM"Lunar is closer to me than Puma," Delphi replied, "Unfortunately, he's kinda... bit wrong, in the shell..." "So you know who Sarah Grey is, but you don't know Lunar," James asked.
-
"Sarah Grey is difficult to [i]not[/i] know, considering her heroics and tales. But a Ghost is not, even though they're arguably the most important asset we have.."
-
"He holds a valid point," Phoebe noted. "Yes, the question goes from [i]Do you know?[/i], to [i]How much do you know?[/i]" Delphi replied. "I'm getting sick of hearing her name," James muttered. "Next time, don't date a badass who is famous," Delphi advised. "Yes, now to that question: Judas, how much [i]do[/i] you know?" Phoebe questioned.
-
"About Sarah, or the Ghost? I never knew Sarah Grey personally. Doubt I did, anyway. She may have known me in the Crucible for wiping teams with one slam, or a signature strategy of mine, against the wall with a machine gun, mowing down enemy attackers as I held the point. I don't think I ever fought against her, either, though.. an individual dressed in her garb did duel me once. A fangirl, I'd suppose. Azra.. she seemed to enjoy Sarah. Didn't know her. But she told me about her, certainly. Then she went into that Vault, and.." [i]Judas fell silent then, sighing as he caressed his chin.[/i] "Forgive me. My rambling self takes over, at times."
-
"I don't need to worry if he knows to much," Phoebe muttered. "Okay... good, because there's sides of her you don't want to see... and also... I think Phoebe's hiding something," James replied.
-
"Warlocks tend to hide their secrets and knowledge within vast minds, just as Titans hide their stratagems and emotions with thick plates of armor, and Hunters conceal their riches and tales with hidden troves. Let her keep hiding whatever it is," [i]Perhaps Judas was just oblivious, or.. had a point.[/i]
-
Phoebe applauded him. "Good job, Judas. Good speech. You'd be an orater."
-
"...Could I?" [i]Judas seemed to put some thought into it, certainly.[/i] "Writing speeches and articles.. hmm. Interesting. Intriguing, even. It seems.. ironic, though, that a Titan would go down such a past. Perhaps that was.. whatever I wished to do, when I was once mortal, and alive? A reporter of some kind.. or an editor, even a speechwriter."

Edited by Splashback77: 2/11/2018 6:06:19 PM"Yeah... it's not completely out of the ordinary. I mean, my half-brother is rather intelligent." "Half brother?" James asked. "David's from a different timeline-- where Finn didn't die," Phoebe replied.
-
"Interesting enough.." [i]Judas then spoke up, clasping his hands together as he listened to the relations of the two.[/i]
-
"Dude.... you're lucky you're not related to me... I have so many siblings and half-siblings," Phoebe told him. "Geez, Phoebe, how many siblings do you have?" James asked. "Four blood siblings, six half-siblings."
-
"...No siblings that I know of." [i]Judas stated, with some surprise.[/i] "Some sort of alteration within time, then?"
-
"The four blood siblings are from my timeline. The half siblings are from different timelines. Four of them are from a certain timeline. The other two are from another different timeline," Phoebe replied.
-
"...That sounds incredibly complex and convoluted.. but nonetheless, I hope that you and your siblings prosper still." [i]At that, a Ghost armored in Cabal shelling would then appear.[/i] "[b]I AM THE EMBODIMENT OF WAR-[/b]" "Archimedes.." [i]The Ghost was silenced then.[/i] "[b]Oh. Hi.[/b]"
-
"Yeah, it's confusing. But I keep a list of who's from what timeline," Phoebe replied, shrugging. "Hello, Archimedes," Delphi greeted.
-
"[b]-GOOD MORNING, VIETNAM-[/b]" "Archimedes is.. infected, perhaps, by a virus that glitches out his brain, and either make war movie references, or.. suffer from generated PTSD attacks." "[b]BACK IN 'NAM, WE DIDN'T EVEN HAVE STICKS AND ROCKS-[/b]" [i]Judas sighed, then.[/i] "That's.. the simplest I can put it." "[b]-WE HAD BUGS THOUGH, PLENTY OF BUGS. AHHHH, MAGGOTS IN MY HEAD.[/b] [b]How is everyone today?[/b]"
