Pioneer, an open world Sci-Fi RP.

"It seems like something like the battle suits would be preferable in most situations. The benefits of a mechanical body but less permanent than cybernetic augmentation. At least with technology being what it is at the moment." Cyril replied trying to use what little information he had of the Alliance's technological abilities the best he could to make the statement.

[Musicman247]

"Except for the reaction time and the pain, I suppose," Zefeer said.

[p-sto]

"Never feeling pain again could be beneficial. Though if I understand correctly isn't one of the benefits of pain the ability to prompt faster reactions when the body has been threatened?" Cyril replied.

[Musicman247]

"Why would you need pain if your reaction time was already faster?" Zefeer asked. "James did not seem to go faster or think more clearly when wounded."

[p-sto]

"I was thinking more in terms of reacting to things you may not be properly aware of. Such as placing your hand on something hot. The pain causes you to pull away before your brain properly registers the heat." Cyril replied. "At least for human reactions away. It's possible Heelox brains are more effecient."

[Musicman247]

"Oh," said Zefeer. "It's likely that our brains are more efficient, but a cybernetic body wouldn't have to worry about a...stove?...attacking with its heat. The technology would be able to withstand nearly all temperatures."

Jessica bit her lip. She didn't want to leave. Never. But she needed to stay alive, so she could kill that Sek son of a [&@%!]. She got up, and wiped her eyes, "Yeah, let's go." She agreed.

[p-sto]

"My point was more about the biological benefit to feeling pain than the specific example. Though I suppose a cybernetic body could have automated responses to certain stimuli and non-painful indicators for body troubles." Cyril replied. After a moment of reflection he added. "You don't seem to consider sacrificing the ability to feel pleasure all that significant."

[Musicman247]

"I have not felt pleasure before, as I have not mated," Zefeer said, "so the concept has no meaning to me personally. I can understand your reluctance, though, as you have had these experiences."

[p-sto]

"I don't just mean the pleasure given from mating. How about the pleasure from eating a good meal or something as simple as holding hands." Cyril replied. "I think I would miss these sensations."

Hidden:

I think they're still holding hands but I'm not sure.

''Alright ... come, i have a ship this way.'' Adam said to Jessica.

Adam walked over to his ship and opened it up, then opened the back. ''you might have to get in the back'' Adam said to her. he looked around one more time, his eye fell on the grave they had just covered in the distance , and he felt sad once more. then he went back to his ship, and got on the communications system. he sent out a message to anyone who would hear him, just in case any humans or O'sekra remained out there.

he then stepped into the ship and waited for a few moments, while preparing.

[Musicman247]

"I just eat rations," Zefeer replied. "And this is nice" she said, holding up Cyril's hand in hers, "but touch sensors are enough to be able to feel something like this from what I have heard."

[p-sto]

"Would the brain receive the information the same way or would a person simply be aware that their hand is touching something?" Cyril asked, having very little idea how these sensors worked.

[Musicman247]

"They would tie into the existing nervous system," Zefeer said. "Although I don't think they could feel if they are wet, like this." Zefeer bent down and put Cyrill's index finger in her surprisingly soft, toothless and wet mouth. She pulled it out slowly, leaving some of her saliva on the finger.

"A celebration of the King," Kreeva said like it was common knowledge, "What is ice cream?"

"We don't have a choice," Kaleem said.

[p-sto]

Cyril watched as Zefeer's mouth engulfed and slowly released his finger. "That was a pleasant sensation." He replied as he looked at the finger.

[The SheoDovah]

"Bugger. What's the plan Kaleem?" David asked her whilst keeping his weapons trained on the exit.

[unokitsune]

"Ice Cream..." Aeris began bring up a lot of images "Is where you talk milk, most commonly cow milk, mix it with sugar and other flavours and you do so in a way that you get creamyness where ice or something close mixes in giving a cold creamy effect that is thick, rich and delicious. It can be eaten as is in it's frozen or semi-frozen state, or it can be cooked over hot deserts like brownies, cakes, pancakes, or even Elephant ear sweets in which case it's warm and has to be eaten fast as it's commonly placed over something super hot creating something warm, usually with addition of hot melted Caramel or Chocolate syrup." Aeris made sure to show all of these images, "I could make some but I would need the necesairy ingredients and gadgets to use. I figured I would be gone for quite awhile from Earth if not the rest of my life so I stocked up on quite a bit including seeds for the plants needed and the like, I also have some freeze-dried ingredients as well. Ice cream itself is very cold, frozen temperature, but warmer and it's melty like frozen yogurt which is simalar but different in that it's mostly active yeast among other things and active cultures that help the body. Oooh that sounds so wonderful now..." Aeris minds were de-railing towards sweets before she shook her head and then tried to save herself with "So the O'Sekra planet tends to be one full body temperature and limits the foods you consume compared to the multi-temperature of Earth?" She asked.

[Justice knight]

Kreeva had pulled a horrid face.
"That sounds utterly disgusting and completely bad for your body," Kreeva said gagging, "First dressing up as those things and now putting those horrid things in your body? I will never get your race."

Teelan, Jack and David
"We hole up here and wait for dawn," Kaleem said.

[The SheoDovah]

"Understood." David replied whilst saluting Kaleem.

[Musicman247]

"Was it?" Zefeer asked, looking at the finger as well. "What made it pleasurable?"

[Nova]

As Jessica walked to the ship, she kept looking back at the grave, sadness and anger in her heart. She felt like she was going to cry again, but she couldn't: she needed to be strong. After a long moment of hesitation, she entered the ship.

[p-sto]

"I'm not sure," Cyril replied, having absolutely no idea how to explain it. "It's just that the feeling of your mouth on my flesh was enjoyable for me."

[Musicman247]

"Would you like me to do it again?" Zefeer asked.
