[Locked to crew on Galilee]

This is Nightwing. If you are with a government agent, please do not bring this message up. Communications should be working on planet, at least with our omnicomms. Ability to contact off planet is still blocked, but this is at least something.

Reports are saying that two people were killed in the attack on the hotel last night, which I assume means the rest of the crew is safe. I've seen Fate, Jr., Kang, Kon, Howard, Zouichi, Lash, Lord Zetta, the Doctor, Dr. Henderson, Rory Williams, Ruffnut and Sakura. Edited to add: And Signum. (Sorry again.) We're all safe and in good health. If there is anybody else unaccounted for in our groups, please let me know immediately.

We were teleported away from the hotel before the missiles hit. We've been guests of the CLF since then.

They claim that the bombings that involve civilian casualties have been orchestrated by the Council as a way to keep the people afraid of change and believing that the clones are too stupid and violent to be given a chance. We have had a chance to speak with their government contact, who has backed this up. In fact, it turns out that the Council themselves are clones, having been in power for the past five thousand years, using the cloning technology to make themselves new bodies and transfer memories and personality into them.

The CLF have offered to assist us in gaining the technology that we're looking for in exchange for a limited amount of assistance. It's an offer I'm seriously considering as I had my doubts about what we could get from the Council to begin with. It also doesn't involve killing anybody, so that already makes me happier.

If everybody could sound off and let me know that you're okay. Please.

((OOC note: This post can only be seen by crew members who are on Galilee. It is open to ALL crew members on Galilee, including those who were not teleported by the CLF. It will not reach Stacy because the off-planet communications are still down.))

You okay, babe? They said no one in the crew got hurt, but I was still worried.

A bit bumped and bruised, but it's nothing to worry about, Kid.

You pull a vanishing act like that again, though, and I swear I will kick your butt from here to the other side of this planet.

You didn't think a teensy little explosion could take me out, did you?

That wasn't teensy. Teensy is like... Fourth of July fireworks in the backyard.

Are you okay?

I'm arguing with sociopathic 12-year-olds over treating clone rights seriously and kicking myself for agreeing with Lex Luthor.

Safe to say the answer's no.

I'm so twisted up about this situation I don't even know what to do with myself.

The CLF is good guys, as far as I can tell, but they still killed innocent people in the beginning of all these. Helping the clones of this planet is the right thing to do, but we need the tech and in either case, our choice is between helping dictators or helping well-meaning murderers.

I can't punch it away. You know how I get when I don't have something to punch.

Well, on the bright side, you haven't suddenly sprouted a goatee and become your own evil twin?

This whole situation is sticky. We're just going to have to be as careful as we can and work it into our advantage. Which especially means no punching. Unless something on your end actually deserves it.

Watch out. With them taking our DNA, an evil twin might already be in the works.

I am so not made for sticky. In fact, I'm scotchgarded. I'm sticky-repellent.

Somehow, I doubt that an evil me will be that effective. But they're welcome to try.

I've kissed you after you've eaten ice cream. You are not.

That's a completely different kind of sticky and you know it.

But you still know what I mean.
