[Hello, community. Have video feed of a half-Japanese man in his late twenties, dressed in a tacky sweater and holding a mug of what is by the color either weak coffee or strong tea.

His smile is a little sleepy, but absolutely genuine.]

I've been wondering: what kinds of jobs do all of you have? There are three of us with access to the community that are cops. I know we have sort of a random sampling from all worlds. I can't help but be curious about how everyone makes a living.

Was this job something you chose, or were you born into it?

Kind of a mix. There's at least one marine every generation of the Prestons - but I volunteered for this, and there sure as hell have been no ANIMa pilots before me. Which I think is a blessing, frankly: we only have these because shit went south and hit a fan on the way.

Do you mind if I ask, exactly, what happened? If it's personal, I understand, but I have to admit that I'm curious.

No, nothing personal.

Invasion. Aliens with tech beyond ours in number, and they did SOMETHING that makes going to sleep permanent if you're 18+.
