Before Gallipoli, it was discussed that we should come up with aliases to call each other, and have backstories to speak of while there was downtime in the war. At the time, we knew the Regency was there, but they wouldn't be so visible. It was enough to not be asked too much by the natives of the time, and allowed us the conditions we needed to blend in as a unit of reinforcements that was beached at the wrong location.

The situation may be different here, but I'd suggest we come up with different aliases from before, considering we'll be facing the Regency out in the open. Using your actual name isn't suggested- it could cause problems and endanger the rest of this cell if you do so. Try to pick something you'll remember easily enough.

Feel free to suggest names and ideas for yourselves, or help others. The BCE has a list of them you can pick from. The sooner we can compile a list, the easier it will make it for all of us to recall while in the middle of the mission.

[Boy, talking like this is a reminder of speaking with soldiers before battles. That was a long time ago, and he's getting back into the hang of it. Also, guess who's bad at suggesting names? THIS GUY. Thankfully, the BCE has a posh name generator that can be found here.]

It's an alias. It's more of an alias than all these other names.

[desynched]

It's related to back home.

[mylawn]

Yeah, and nobody knows who I am back home, either.

[desynched]

People suspect.

I don't want to give them anything to make it easier for them to find me.

[mylawn]

One tabloid? If the Regency knew, I'd already be gone.

[desynched]

They might not know now.

But I guess If they figure out where and when to look it won't matter.

For either of us.

[mylawn]

Might also be that Overwatch was relatively insignificant, in the cosmic scheme of things.

[desynched]

You really know how to bruise someone's ego.

[mylawn]

Another possibility is that we were useful to them in some way. Helped pave the way to their universal peace, or whatever they call it.

[desynched]

Thanks.

Now I feel better.

[mylawn]

I've become a pessimist in my old age.

[desynched]

I noticed.

If anyone's helping the Regency, it's Talon

[mylawn]

I think this is beyond the scope of anything we dealt with back home.

[desynched]

Yeah, the likelihood that they're messing about on our Earth at all is pretty slim.

But now the thought's in my head.

Ugh.

[mylawn]

The last three missions have been on Earth, so I think about it a lot.

Sorry.

[desynched]

It's ok.

We can be paranoid together.

[mylawn]

Be careful. You don't want to end up like me.

[desynched]

Too late. I'm already growing a beard. :(

[mylawn]

That's how it starts.

[desynched]

Oh nooo. X(

What do I do? I can't pull off a beard!

[mylawn]

Resign yourself to your unfortunate fate.

[desynched]

Never! I'll fight it to the very last whisker.

[mylawn]

Good luck with that.
