About Me
Humble indentured servant of the megacorporation NanoTrasen. Well, for now. Travelling musician. Before you ask, no, I'm not looking for romance. Everyone seems to love me regardless though. If you know me, then you know me, otherwise, stop e-sleuthing me, it's creepy.
(OOC Notes: I only really comment with this guy, don't expect to see a blog. Space Station 14 OC!)
"Eats, Eats we miss you!" I miss me too. Maybe I'll be back around... Sorry about that. I was busy on tour for a week, maybe I really am popular... Let me check my inbox.
*Ruffles through make-believe papers before crying in loneliness.*
Hey HoP do you wear that hat because you are balding. Question mark.
I am not balding that badly for a man in his 50's, though I admit my hairline had receded over time.
The hat is a very, very old keepsake—I had two, back before I... became more of a transient worker, changing my assignments more frequently. Now, I only have the one. I've had it since just after I left the Marines.
Ever turned it into a shiv? Just curious.
No. I don't even carry a lethal weapon when I'm Acting Commanding Officer unless we're on red alert.
Former Marine, doesn't even carry a weapon? One time I saw a CMO wearing his full combat armor in the Marines on all clear. You're prone to being jumped, Declan. Learn from my mistakes.

NTR tried testing me by threatening me with 2500 spesos fine! thankfully i passed the test by not giving them the money but i also passed a little too well by saying i'd take their life before giving away even a single spesos...
...at least you prioritized company profits. That's... Sometimes all we can ask of a quartermaster.
I'm not surprised you can justify blood money. Seems to be genetic.
You think that's blood money?
There's no way you're that sheltered...
Just so you know my entire species (except for me) was wiped out because somebody's agent slept with the opposing nation's wife. I think I'm qualified here, boss. I mean, I think threatening to kill people for theoretically eating into profits is blood money.

Eats. You claim to be nonviolent. You claim to be sick of my family's drama and conflict.
And yet you kick the hornet's nest again and again.
Maybe I'd rather actually *fix* the issue instead of just leaving and fucking you all over, you know. I might not be the same as I was once, but I'm not heartless either. Also, saying hornets nest makes it sound like family drama will kill me. It won't really do that to me. Unlike what you and Haymitch constantly get up to.
I would recommend against arguing in a public hallway, it does not look good on either of you...
I love arguing in the hallway. It gives great pressure to make your opponent piss off and actually think about what you say. I think you just don't like public hallways.
99% of PDA thefts occur in public hallways, PDAs are not free.
100% of PDA thefts occur when the target is distracted, arguments tend to distract their participants.
i am not fond of losing money.
Maybe you should go beat up all the PDA thieves. There would be no more people to steal PDAs. This is the real solution you're not seeing.

I see how it is. "Uhhh sorry he might've died after the 7th person [This data has been expunged by NanoTrasen Standards & Practices]. But now you have me, who's not afraid to stand up for himself." So your trauma means you're allowed to take violent action to defend yourself, but when I experience trauma and take violent action to defend myself, I'm "immoral" and "careless" and "selfish". I see how it is. @t-r-o-p-s
You know, Haymitch, there might be a difference between creating your own problems and having them forced onto you. Ever consider that? And don't take everything personally, that's when you go postal. Now, I won't apologize, but I don't expect you to apologize either, despite the good it would do you.
Sorry, I'll consider that next time I decide to get exposed to The Horrors when I choose to act with kindness. I'll consider that the next time I decide to end up in debt and dependent on medication in order to not have my sanity crumble. I'll consider that the next time I decide to live in this goddamn world that has no kindness, no forgiveness, only debt and betrayal and "profit".
I have made my apologies to those I owe them to. That includes you. If I haven't apologized for something, consider why.
Have you EVER considered that being kind to everyone makes you a target? I think I'd know better than most. You don't have to take advantage of people Haymitch, but you also don't have to be taken advantage of. You're in too deep to just jump out, but you don't have to dig yourself deeper either. If you ever wondered why I moved out the second I got the option to, it's because I just watch almost everyone in your family repeat this mistake. It hurts to watch, Haymitch. Maybe you should role model yourself after Erik instead of the man who abandoned you for over 20 years.
Erik taught me kindness.
Not him.
I'm sorry I brought it up. I simply found your hypocrisy about violence frustrating.
Drop it, and I will, too. Just don't compare me to him. You know what you're doing.
I do know what I'm doing, because a third party perspective is the best way to grow, Haymitch. I'm not out to hurt you. The difference between you and Erik is that Erik knows when to stop being pointlessly nice. Maybe you should talk to him, hm? Percy also might have some.... Valuable insight... I should talk him into getting into these forums.

OOC: All right. I just want some opinions.
Obviously this is Declan's blog. (The blog for Declan. The blog specifically designed to embarrass and give headaches to Declan.)
However, I've sent y'all multiple asks from my other characters—namely Declan's ex and Declan's son. This is useful because there are some things that Declan, as a character, simply won't engage with for whatever reason.
HOWEVER, this means I can't reply when you answer the asks, and this makes me sad.
HOWEVER AGAIN—and here's the real tricky bit—while Declan's ex does interact with him in some capacity, Declan's son... Basically does not. And I'm not sure how I'd navigate that in a sideblog.
Thoughts? Comments? Questions? Concerns? Paperwork to submit? Reblog, comment, etc.
Here at NanoTrasen, we value your feedback.
ooc: you could assign a specific color to characters other than declan like i do for clark's antag rounds
ex:
declan - standard
declan son - green
declan wife - pink
etc
Ooc: Delighted, as usual, that Declan comes off as straight to people :3
(Genuinely. I think it's absolutely hilarious. You are not the first to assume that Declan is straight—in fact, Declan's best friend once awkwardly tried to explain transness to Declan only for Declan to, very tiredly, go "I know you all think I'm old and uptight but I was married to a man for twenty years*")
*context and definition dependent
Colors isn't a bad idea either tbh. I'll consider this...
Ooc: Pffft. My homoerotic lizards could never. This is also why I refer to Utoli *exclusively* as Husband. Is this related? No. I just like talking about gay lizards okay!?!? I also think that the colors idea is good though...
Sometimes I see someone, either in person or on the crew manifest, and I think to myself "How in the world did that come to be your name?" Usually, it's a reptilian, but the occasional human or diona causes the thought too. Sometimes a thaven as well, but I usually just brush it off as being a result of one of their moods.
For example, I've seen reptilians named "Chews-on-Wires" and "Slips-the-Cadet", and I just think to myself... "Did your parents choose that name? Or did you decide that as your life goal? What is going on here..."
So... How do you reptilians get named? Do your parents choose your names, or do you choose them yourself after a while? Or is it some other way?
Ooh, I'm a reptile, I can answer this! So... In my culture at least, it's basically how humans get nicknames. It's a descriptor of what you're known for doing or for a significant physical trait. Like calling the local fat kid Pillsbury Doughboy (I do not encourage this behaviour, don't do that). I got mine because I kept tripping over my tail when I was younger, so... I ate dirt. Eats the dirt. I think my husband got his from a mix of familial title and being picked at birth (like a human).
Stupid secoff called me "dumb fucking gecko".
he was not so inclined to do again after being stabbed.
Based on your beret, you're... the Corpsman, right? Or just a Security Officer? Something like that. Isn't your job literally to prevent that from happening?
As any member of Security, you shouldn't be stabbing people for insulting you. In fact, stabbing should only be resorted to if your target is actively threatening people's lives or if non-lethally incapacitating them with your stun baton is not an option.
Even still, using your stun baton should be reserved for people who actively break the law. Spitting in your face and calling you a "dumb fucking gecko" is not against space law anywhere that I'm aware of.
By Nar'sie, and people wonder why the term "Shitsec" exists...
This situation would be an excellent use for the Formal Complaint Form. The Formal Complaint Form is 500% less likely to result in subsequent violence as opposed to "literal violence".
You know what's infinitely more effective than stabbing or formal complaints? Throwing them out the airlock without a hard suit. Murder is bad, but so is speciesism. This makes murder justifiable. Don't check my math, I'm a great mathematician.
Tip: Don't do this! This is what we call "Prevention of Revival", which is a code 404 capital crime. Are you trying to get into perma too?
Maybe I am maybe I'm not, what are you, a SecOff?
No, I'm the Roboticist who has to deal with the aftermath of your shenanigans.
To make sure we're on the same page here: You're saying that, in response to a slur, it is justified to attempt to permanently kill the person who said it?
You've clearly never had the experience of being an Unathi. Somebody once threw a lizard pet at me and said "Hey look, it's your grandpa!" I feel like there needs to start being repurcissions for things like this. Like, say... Death! Especially if they have clones.
Okay, so tell them to stop, and if they don't, report them for harassment or something? Our language is vest and every word holds power, but if you think an insult (or, in this case, what I'm fairly certain was meant to be a joke) should be punishable by death, you've got your priorities backwards.
I'm of the belief that most Clowns only play their role so they can be an asshole and brush it off as "doing their job", and even I don't hate their "jokes" this much.
Also, if jokes like that are the worst part of being an Unathi, I think I'd quite enjoy being one if it involves not suffocating when my throat gets even remotely dry.
If it was a joke they should've considered not slapping me with a live animal. Or being a clown. Still hate clowns, but I digress. After you've been dealing with (and far, far worse things) for 23 years, consecutively, without break, it starts seeming reasonable. We even have internal speciesism! I'm very gotten very close to a fistfight with another Unathi over our point of origin.
