Experience: Part Deux

Well, my latest attempt at leading a patrol went much better than last time. Two kills, and we all got back safely. I finally feel as though i'm getting the hang of this...

Additionally that same night a fool in a Myrmidon-class battlecruiser decided to try and goad us into a fight. I successfully made myself a juicy target for him in my little Arbitrator. I showed myself to him breifly on the station before warping off to a safe spot a little further away from the Thukker Mix base and sure enough - he launched a scanner probe.

After a few minutes had passed he warped in right ontop of me, launched his drones, activated some multispectural ECM jammers and started attempting to tear my Arbitrator's golden hull to pieces. Things where looking grim - apart from the fact that I had backup in the form of Athas Aria and Zukko who immediately joined the fight and tore him apart... A plan executed flawlessly. Overall a very satisfying experience.

Additionally, I stopped by The Last Gate for the first time this evening whilst picking up a few purchases from a nearby system. The moment I walked in through the door, someone - I have no idea who - shot Kyoko Sakoda in the kneecap. She was carted off to the back room by Verone and I didn't see either of them again for the rest of the night...

Some other people I met up with where Vaden Khale, who I teased about his little display of affection towards Mistress Subaka on the IGS a while ago, and Jennifer Starfall who I'd not seen since she left Ghost Festival for Veto all those months ago. Strange seeing how people change...

Overall things seem to be going my way for the moment. My Recon Ship training is coming along nicely, although I still have no idea how I will be able to fit one. I'll have to do some research.
