Lacuna online. What can I do for you?
Stop your ship immediately and give yourself up.
This is a civilian vessel equipped only with HLC anti-debris weaponry. We are not carrying any cargo above the value of 100,000,000 srakna. We do not mean any hostility or intrusion.
I don't care about material goods or intrusion or whatever. All I want is you.
As the pilot of this vessel, I am required to [ENTRY ENDS UNEXPECTEDLY] .COMM_OUTER2
Lacuna! Lacuna! Oh god, my head...
Lacuna online. What can I do for you?
What just happened?!
This vessel was hit by a magnetic pulse powerful enough to disrupt our subsystems but too weak to destroy any mechanical passengers. It was launched by a small unidentified vessel whose captain has been designated as Upsilon.
How long 'til we reach Zynima?
This vessel will be landing on planet Zynima in approximately 26 minutes.
Have you made any communications with Upsilon?
Affirmative. Upsilon is demanding my transfer to their vessel. They fired the pulse shortly after I refused.
Open a comm line to Upsilon. .COMM_OUTER3
This is the captain of Lacuna's vessel. What the hell are you doing?
Persuading.
You can't have Lacuna. Not only is there no way to transfer it to you, but it is a critical component of this ship.
Listen: I don't care about your ship. I don't care about how impossible you think it is. Make it happen. I'll give you 5 minutes.
I repeat, an AI data transfer is IMPOSSIBLE in space. I cannot fulfill your request.
Then I fry your ship. 4 minutes and 48 seconds. .COMM_OUTER7
Please verify your command before I perform this action.
Are you nuts? We'll all die!
No, we won't. Physically, you're one of us now. You'd be surprised by how much turmoil we can withstand. And what better option do you think we have? Let Upsilon roast us?
I, ah...
Lacuna. Do it.
Affirmative.

Fort Geranium
'Mariana''Lieutenant''Admiral''Europa Airgetlam'Those are some of the names people have taken to calling me but it wasn't always like this. I used to lead a much simpler life as a florist but apparently fate didn't like that I was wasting my time. Cruelly was my life taken away from me and I found myself in another world with a different identity: Mariana Von Ulysses. Another world, another life, it's all the same to me. The only reason I ever became a florist in the first place was because it was an easy opportunity for me to live comfortably. That's really all I ever wanted, to live 'comfortably', and perhaps I didn't have any grand ambitions of my own but what's wrong with that? However this new world is hellbent on not letting me have it my way. Wave after wave of problems, from monsters to national politics, it seeks to drive me towards the center of all these inane drivel. If that wasn't bad enough, apparently humans are hated in this world, eh? I'm a human too... Fine, you want it your way world? If you push then I'll push back! I'll solve these problems the only way I know how: Flowers! Don't underestimate their poisonous attributes just because they have cute colors and girly patterns. Orcs? Elves? Humans? Fairies? Dwarves? Dragons? Titans? Celestials? Ascendeds? Gods? To stand before me means that they have forfeited their lives. I shall show them all, the deadliness of plants... The slow and agonizing torture of poison and venom, swirling within your system as you writhe in excruciating pain. It burns you from the inside with no escape. The only release from this hell would be 'death'. That is my power. In the end, the world does not seem to want to leave me alone. Thus I've come to a conclusion: the only way to make myself truly comfortable in this world is a hostile take over! So let me demonstrate their powers to you; I'll let you taste the reason why they call me the 'Flower of Malice'.
