"Slight misconception: Our system runs of something of an "Afterlife Protocol," Our Androids are run by simulated memories of deceased lifeforms - mostly biotic. And it is not a harsh form of slavery, either - we treat them fair and just, providing for their ideology and preferences as they serve us. Being androids, they do not require food or rest, though are allowed to eat and sleep if they wish to feel more comfortable. We try to be benevolent as possible."

ShakeshaBererund

Hmmm.. Acceptable. However, i need your pemission to test on a dead creatures corpse, we think we might be able to turn its individual cells into identical creatures. It is the last member of its species(was? IDK)

"Permission Granted. Remember to use the Personal Nullspace Stabilizer beforehand, so you can revert the creature to a corpse, should you receive an undesirable result."
/Transmission End/

ShakeshaBererund

We prefer original results, the PNS will not be used, if we fail, we fail. Also, i noticed your station looks a little small for its use, do you need assistance with resources? We can help

RandomCommander

((The station is actually not that small, compared to other ships. It just looks like it from the picture above, I guess.))

/Transmission Start/
"We understand. We also have a steady supply of resources from a higher dimension coming in, however we thank you for the offer."
/Transmission End/

ShakeshaBererund

Ok. Just know, we can pull strings, we do have advance stations of our own under construction

"That is fine, We only wish to provide the highest-technology solutions for all peace-seeking races in this sector of space. If you must continue research in your own research stations, we will respect that."

"Pardon me, Cobra-Composite here - Logistics operator for Gateway One. As a further show of good faith from the Dimensional Collective, we wish to extend an offer of assistance in completing the construction of your advanced stations, if you would allow us."
/Transmission End/

ShakeshaBererund

I would, but the condition is that i need to design the outlay, then you can fill it in, deal? Kind of like a ship to show our alliance?

"...The Trader Class has accepted your terms! This will be a good symbol for our alliance!"

"HOLD: ZERO-QUAD OF THE DC SPEAKING - YOU MAY HAVE COME ON GOOD TERMS WITH THE EXPLORER CLASS AND SHOWN THE TRADER CLASS OF YOUR GOOD SENSE OF NEGOTIATION, BUT YOU HAVE YET TO CONVINCE THE ASSAULT CLASS. HOW IS IT THAT YOU CAN BE USEFUL TO THE COLLECTIVE, AND CAN YOU PROVE IT?"
/Transmission End/

ShakeshaBererund

Depends on what you want

"WE HAVE RECEIVED THE BLUEPRINTS OF YOUR-- ALERT: IS THAT BLOOD CULT TECHNOLOGY PRESENT ON YOUR SHIPS?"
/Transmission End/

ShakeshaBererund

Hoever, my above offer to help your race in war stands, as 50000 of these are always at the ready:

Yes those are blood cult flags, they are a stand in until we make our own

ShakeshaBererund

The best we can manage. They are being changed to archon plasma, but im on a school pc, so youll have to wait till tomorrow

RandomCommander

ShakeshaBererund ((Really? Because that would have been a good selling point for an Alliance with the Dimensional Collective - they have seen the destructive potential of Blood Cult weaponry and respect its power - as well as wanting to learn all about it. To the Collective, being able to harness Blood Cult Technology is pretty powerful.))

ShakeshaBererund

Eh, we conquered one of their fighters and replecated it, using a polymer instead of bloo

ShakeshaBererund

Refueling the cannons would mean genocide

ShakeshaBererund

Our stations would use it btw

"OBSERVATION: IT IS A SURPRISINGLY ACCURATE REPRESENTATION. WORRY NOT ABOUT THE TROUBLES OF REFUELING AND RELOADING BLOOD CULT TECHNOLOGY, I HAVE REASON TO BELIEVE OUR 'SIMULATED SOULS' CAN PROVIDE A NECESSARY CONSUMPTION WITHOUT THE REQUIREMENT OF TOTAL RACIAL DESTRUCTION."

"Having access to this stuff in the first place is a really important factor in of itself."

"AGREEMENT: WE HAVE WITNESSED WHAT IT IS CAPABLE OF. THE DIMENSIONAL COLLECTIVE IS IN DIRE NEED OF A POWERFUL ALLY, AND YOUR LEAGUE OF DRONES JUST MIGHT PULL OFF THE 'POWERFUL' FACTOR. CONSIDER THE ASSAULT CLASS CONVINCED!"

"Then it's settled! Consider your request for an alliance granted, and the declaration formal! We will await the outline and paint scheme of your base and attempt to fill it with the utmost of efficiency!"

"You now have Full Access to the open labs and advanced permissions for it, and we will wholly assist you in any endeavor you find yourself in. We are positively ecstatic to have you as an ally to the Collective!"
/Transmission End/

Your status with the Collective has been updated.

"Welcome, GoCo! I am Cobra-Composite of the Dimensional Collective, Trader-Class Civilian Affairs head of this station! My associates are the Assault-Class Security Chief Zero-Quad, and Explorer-Class Starbase Overseer Constable-Unknown. We welcome you to the Gateway One Starbase!"

"We have heard of your dynamic freighting company, capable of shipping materials, sentient civilizations, and everything in between! We are happy to serve you on this occasion!"

"Receiving Data... You have an interesting selection of cargo ships and escorts for funded usage. Perhaps if we needed an extra assortment of goods, or perhaps transportation of live, sentient beings - with consent of course -
we can contact your services in the future."

"REGARDING YOUR OFFER: WE REQUIRE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR 'PLANS' IN ORDER TO COME TO A CONSENSUS. FEAR NOT, THIS COMMUNICATION LINE IS SECURED AND IS BEING MONITORED FOR ANY SIGNS OF TAMPERING. WE ASSUME YOUR SECONDARY LINK TRANSFERS BACK TO A CERTIFIED GOCO ESTABLISHMENT, YES?"
