Argus emerged from his quarters, yawning and half-dressed, and headed up on the deck. He appeared on the main deck, scratching his belly, and straining his sleep-ridden eyes to see through the break in the shield. It was still night - and according to the nav system, it was going to be night for their entire trip - which was not an appealing ( Read more... )

After a slow ascent through the clouds, and finally breaking through Oberon V's thick atmosphere, the Ragnarok shot out of orbit without any difficulty.

OOC: Hey guys, it's Argie's player ;p Just wanted to let you know that I AM STILL HERE! I haven't been playing recently, because I've been....OK, so I've been lazy =/. I just haven't been able to keep my eyes open too late. But I have been keeping an eye on things, so I don't get too out of the loop (because it bites when that happens ( Read more... )

[Paid accounts rock. I totally redid my journal layout here. Kickass. Down to the mood icons. I feel so accomplished.]I had to save that bloody bird. All of my energy going into hating her, and I had to save her life. I'm a pathetic sod! Why didn't I let her die? She didn't deserve my compassion...I should have let her die. She wanted to die. If ( Read more... )

I was kind of bored, so following in Otto mun's footsteps, I've found a couple of songs that suit Argus.
