Okay, will of the ship in general is obvious and stupid: peace and love, even with the Ohm.
Anyone who actually cares about beating the Ohm and getting their world back, drop me a line. We're gonna have to figure out how to do it by ourselves.

I always seek a peaceful solution, but once the war's begun, sometimes all you can do is fight.
no subject
Yeah, and enough people disagree with you that we have a council of pacifists now. Whatever information they gather won't do us any good if they won't let us use it.

What's the peaceful solution? "Put our worlds back?" "Stop destroying everything?" "Wish the Overlord's Netherworld back?" Look, if the Ohm ever come to this ship in force, the ten seconds we spend composing a peaceful message to them is pretty much the difference between putting up a fight and dying horribly. I call that 'crippled'.

Do you expect this to be an uphill grind the whole way? That we'll drive through the horde and find some kind of 'core' that we destroy and take out of all them? What if we get to a point where we're just as powerful as they are, an equal - and recognized - threat? They won't have the freedom to move against us at their leisure like that.

...you're not giving them credit. I could have kicked their ass in ten easy minutes and still had time to get the waffles out of the iron before they burned. Somehow they managed to find and screw with the keystone of my Netherworld so I couldn't do that.
And besides that, there's numbers. Doesn't matter if you personally can kill 9,998 of 'em if they can throw 9,999 at you. The kind of effort it takes to get to 'we're a threat' level? Doesn't allow time for a lot of peaceful negotiation and crap. More likely they'll come take us out BEFORE then. Right now, they're holding all the cards.

[She locks her post to just Zetta now.]
I voted for both you and Dhianeila because I don't agree entirely with either of you. Balanced viewpoints are the only way to not miss what might be the best option; if you give up now, we'll lose your viewpoint, and potentially the war.
[Also locked. Zetta CAN do that if he actually brings himself to care.]
I'm not giving up. I want my damn body back. But the four people that got voted in are all the "peace and love and harmony" thing... except for the Vindicator, who is at least up front about her whole 'hating demons' thing. But that only matters to me and Alessa and whatever that possessing-thing was.
And hey. I expected that. 'Peace and love' for the crew always sells well as a message. I'm kinda surprised no one really cares about the whole 'get the ship on our side' thing...
Just means I can only count on the Council to oppose my plans. Just makes things that much harder.

...You know about the violations system, right? You heard what happens if you get too many?

You ever want to see it for real, come to the sensorium.
You might understand why even an evil demon thought it crossed the line.

Not on a full stomach.
