You get to daydream and while the time away.
However it isn't making dreams come true.
Working to make them come true makes for new dreams.
I like making dreams come true.

": - Temporal Z-Axis is still 0.0872 chronotons off nominal. However CIC has given the go to resume Expansion and Exploration aspects. - :"
"Thanks Command." ...a spunky short haired Morisato babe of a Commander replied back over Hikari Net-holo, as her new command starship, Battlestar Angelius XVII made final preparations. This as her nerves were trying to be settled, as renewed anticipation began to beget at her once more. This as the replete crew of the Gaian starship were of vibes akin the same.
The holo-Command voice of Admiral Yurika Misamaru Tenkawa remarked back, given the personal nature of the matter of such personal import. ": - Be advised that this is only Phase One that's ending. Phase Two is still more than active. Try not to ascend any external entities upon any First Contact. - :"
The spunky lass replied back to the holo image of the long, blue maned lass, just as youthful in age as the speaker. (Give or take a few Universal Ages and all,) "The tell Washu to get the calculations right next time we have to use the Protocol Spheres. Fifty years is a divined long time you know!"
"I'll be only about five to the rest of the Core Galaxy." ...a near akin spunky male commented. Yurika adding... ": - Yeah. What's the big deal? - :"
"You want me to take another fifty to yell at you all about it?!?!" ...Megumi snapped back comically at Yurika and Keiba. Both held their hands up defensively, whether nominally, or holo-wise, as Megumi just threw a fit at them both. It made the amidst command crew nearby chuckle cutely at.
"Chill babe." ...Keiba commented studly to his ancient wife of Ages upon Eons, adding. "I'm sure Washu and Skuld will get it all right on the next round of Ascension Protocol."
Megumi just sighed and eyed sultry at Keiba, whom as ever as any proper Gaian male, looked as such my a Gaian female of about any racial profile, blushed at. "Well if you sound so sure about that." ...the adopted a more lay folded arm look. "...though I still hold judgment."
"No probs." ... ": - Eeyup. - :"
"~ Fold drive nearly charged. ~" ...a nearby Griffional Engineer-Tech announced, as several of the nearby Techs worked over their holo-screens, as well as Networks, to ensure a premature demise to two-dimensional compression, or Hikari Core rupture didn't occur, or all sorts of still all too real dangers an advanced intergalactic race has to conduct and deal with. Even after such said Universal Ages, all was 'still' by the book, when it came down to the miracle of Fold Space travel. Such Keiba returned back. "Thanks." ...such was Megumi's own blush in turn. (other such things didn't change either, when it came down to these Gaians.)
Megumi then smiled. "Time for the fun to begin again. Let's keep it more fun this time too."
": - I still envy you guys out there. - :" ...Admiral Yurika remarked, as both Morisatos smiled at the implication. Given the same was said just outside the vast viewport, as sight of Pretai-VII was seen, the peach colored Type III gas giant, with rings of silver white and bronze, ice and rocky metallic rings or such denote, shone of a chock full, of millions of Gaian vessels, shone in active or prepared splendor.
Of sight said denote, three terraformed lunars, full class M, two forest, one land-oceanic, plied light from Pretai A and B blue-green stars, (such the miracle of Avian Ascendant star sculpturing flair,) as wedged above and below the vast planetary rings of beauty, enormous planetary space docks that orbited as overhang of the mammoth gas giant, as if the docks were gargantuan lattices of frame for vines, of terrestrial note. Here, the seeded plants were of Emerald Fleet Section 748-A/P, Confederacy Exploration Arm 4753/8th Facet, and much of the Avian Crystal ship base of the Command Base Two Hundred Fleet Legions. Large numbers of several Kushan-Droid Fleet Facets were arrayed as well, giving numbers of over one million ships here alone. And this was just one planet. The scene was repetitive across the Pretai System, nevermind the near one million Star Systems the Gaians had managed to 'claim', during Plan Alpha, prior to the wee lil mistake that led to Interdiction.
Such that gave a Gaian aspect fifty years to Terraform and organize the frack out of their claimed territory, of whit, one one inhabited system was conquered. It was better in Gaian standard to claim dead star systems, terraform inert words via Genesis-Holia Titans, or naturalized Ascendant practiced aspects, reformat starts even to suit Climatized aspects for further acclimation of all well kinds, to create entire star systems that had hundreds of terraformed or artificially inhabitable worlds and lunars and planetoids and smaller. The short of it further, systems that didn't even have worlds, were either outright 'made', or Fold Transported in place.
In essence, the Gaians 'made' their own breathing room, at no one else's expense. The same couldn't be said for those within the Interdiction Zone, but that was another Avian Clutch to deal with.
All that relented to, during a fifty year 'absence', no thanks to... "Temporal Dimensional Mechanics, Ugh." ...Megumi groaned. Kinda cute to see an entire crew nod in anime simult like that. Keiba just laughed.

Belldandy's Personal Log
April 5th, 517 year, Gaian MWCG Standard
- Well, as my beloved Keiichi would put it of ancient mode, and has, out oil spill is about cleaned up, as Temporal Mechanics goes. My Son tries to take much of the blame as usual, but not even Lord Azusa allows him much such personal 'leeway there. High Commander Lind assuredly sets Excellency Imladris straight, such I am walking over to report unto.
It all simply proves that we sure as heaven, are not perfect. This is good, we still need to learn, given of prior events from the Trial. I'll dissuade in favor of fruitful tidings, as the Ascension Protocol finally wanes, and we no longer threaten the Space-Time stability of the Alpha Dimension, in all so attached. And to be sure, Lady Washu still must say a 'sorry', to the Council, at each session, much to her constant chagrin, (what such after only fifty years, on upon our temporal aspect,) for her and my wonderful Sister Skuld's slight miscalculation that led to the Interdiction. I am more than sure both are eager to halt such trying absolution, in favor of their nominal behavior in Council sessions.
Such are becoming more alive of recent days, now that the other three Realms are able to send representatives to Sessions once more, which they grow more proud to see just how efficient Gaian ingenuity can be, Where formerly naturally discovered worlds were, or formatted into place of prior early days of the Alpha Plan, now entire worlds are renew of life as we once knew of our ancient ways, back in Antara. Worlds of many kinds, space filled with metropolis inter-star cities. Places where life and Hikari beam our shining light, in the trillions of souls, that prior were stranded survivors and refugees in cryo-stasis, or gene-sibiko storage, or plain as gene-samples from those that died in the days of the Dark Rip, all now exist anew in a renewed hope Gaians now have, in a format that I find hard not to shed tears of in joy.
And... -wiping sounds- ...did so again on my holo-tablet. Silly me.
The point of all such: We live. That is the Joy I walk to report to my Son of, as Interdiction is at an end. I am glad. We get to belong again. Hopefully this time for good. These myriad absences and Silences strain even my own cheerful mode. It'll be good to meet other cultures, renew ties, even discover and learn of those we do not as easily understand. And to find new cuisine. I need to treat my Keiichi well, after all.
And the other point: To impinge upon my Son's personal time of course. A mother's prerogative. What since there's another growing concern of immediate note. And... oh dear... ~

...good thing Belldandy's personal umbrella shield, calibrated for 'exactly' this occurrence, was at ready mental activation, what given the deluge that was occurring, even if it was of literal 'sweet sea' akin. Such the akin of terraformed water that rather than of brine format, the version here on the Lunar of Gaia-Oricron, orbiting Gaia-Ceii, was of literal glowing sweet sea water. Fresh and sweet. Literally. It also made for nice sparkling effect, as said deluge made it's short downpour, as Lady Belldandy blinked her angelic blue in blue eyes, as the Cultural Advisor to the council, blinked cutely, if blankly on.
"She's still pissed at him." ...Lord Keiichi Morisato commented, as Belldandy looked aside to her right, with a cute smile.
And so the setting. A pristine beach of white sand, literal grinded down white diamond sand, that reflected the afar white light of the blue stars of the Gaia-Ceii Star System, Core of the Blue Core Nebula Complex, with a peaceful mix of blue-white light. The particulars, akin of relaxing beach goers, Keiichi nice and chiseled in black swim trunks, a standard looking Hawaiian looking beach shirt of white and black, Belldandy, a simple white one piece of slender note, approaching barefoot towards a futuristic tiki hut setup, where a few other attendant Gaians, and other beach goers, for the majority part, were huddled comically under the hut awning of meshed fibers that effectively made it all look as advertised, save for one citizen soul of white-in-white-in-white-in-white, such was her Bianco nature that she looked on under her own activated Hikari umbrella screen, as she chimes out... "Giocare duramente per ottenere, non ti aiuterà qui."
"Stop that!!" ...a panicky kingly voice yelps off screen, towards the somehow still filled ocean. Such Eihwa giggles unto, as she notes over... "Ahh, Signora Belldandy and Signore Keiichi." ...such both so said approach more of dry, than the beach around them. "Greetings Signora Eihwa." ...Belldandy puts Itallian flair tact unto Eihwa in turn. Such the so called 'White Goddess', gave a two finger salute back in kind, as she lain in her own white 'somehow' one piece swimsuit, as pure white as her elongated mane or purity. The eyes of white corneas smiled, as her Angelic Partner Test of Purity hovered, helping 'fan' Eihwa needlessly of her left angelic wing. Such done with her own eye on the oceanic fracas afar of all too near sight. (Such attested by said beach goers comically cowering.)
Keiichi denotes all this with usual simplicity. "Should she finally just elope the king-dude dope and all?" ...whit both akin goddesses (only 'not' so, since there were four 'real' Gaian goddesses of actual definition now,) just giggle back. Eihwa then imparted. "All may such be finally time and proper. The Interdiction will no longer be a proper excuse to engage a proper engagement. Especially what since Lady Misaki's last visit was of any indication."
"Surprised we still have a planet and all." ...Keiichi countered back, a look above/afar of Gaia-Ceii, the immaculately terraformed M-System of blue-grey-white rings, and a second glowing lunar of Gaia-Heavenus afar, gemmed of stellar sight and beauty. Star traffic afar of inter System traffic tubes and myriad Fold and Hyper-Warp Jumps, added further sparkles of replete activity. The inference was of unsettling mode, as Belldandy sighed. "I fear my Son weighs his concerns down to others, a tad too far."
"Come ho detto..." ...Eihwa tease-warned. Keiichi 'struck back', in kind with.. "And of you and Lind? And... well, actually all three of yah and all." ...this Eihwa teased a white finger-tipped same to her white lipstick caressed lips. "To my gli amori first, without fail. I know my turn of it."
"And of..." ...Keiichi starts, before a BELOW of angry Valkyrian mode, causes another BLAST of sweet blue-tea seawater to DELUGE about the lot, before... "...they..." ...and another BLAST/DELUGE... "...that..." ...two MORE... "...that they..." ...white TWO MORE... "...STOP THAT!!"
Belldandy even gulps a comical touch. "Perhaps this report will save him?" ....whit Eihwa takes custody of said report. "No no, I will partake. The Interdiction you sayeth?" ...as Test of Purity takes the holo-Tablet from Belldandy. As the Angelic Partner 'reads' for her mistress, Belldandy nods in kind. "Ascension Protocol is all but receded. All such function as intended. As much as a defence from Dark Ascendancy aspects, as well as any agents of theirs in Alpha Universe space. We already are beginning our first forays into local space, hence our presence here to inform.
But I see my Son is too busy for that."
An afar Excellency voice tries to 'use that' as an escape vector, echoed afar... too afar... "Oh good, we can start to then... wait... stop it Lind, it was just an mistake of..."
"You used 0.00375% too much lotion!" ...and afar supposed to be Second Lady Excellency growled out.
"...I said I was... wait... ACK!! Help! Lemme get my.... WACK!!" ...before ANOTHER large blast of seawater makes for both murmured groans from the various Gaian beachgoers, and the nanites within the Tiki hut trying in vain to keep it dry, nevermind the Forran 'workers' within the energon conduits that kept having to 'retreat', to keep from electrocuting the other guests. (Energon beings and water, well... you know...)
The umbrella shields at least were up to snuff, as Belldandy continued on, cutely regardless. "The first waves are states for continued exploration of MWCG space, as well as begin forays for expansion into the surrounding Local Superclusters for new worlds and resources."
"As per the Hundred Year Plan, tis aye." ...Eihwa nods. This before a further BLAST/DELUGE, adds in icy sparkles that denote Spell P:rogram energon. Such Keiichi adds in. "I suppose we better finish the wedding planet too, for everyone else's sake."
"I heard that!!" ...this before a Diamond Axe unto Blue Diamond Sword 'screech' is added. This as venting turns into another Spar! "Heed this instead!" ...Lind-afar hollers, to more water based carnage. This in turn however turns the afar crowd into a cheering throng, that Keiichi sees and comically teardrops at. "Gimme a break."
Belldandy then offers off ancient change of tact. "Would you like a drink Keiichi?"
"Sure."
"-giggle-" ....Eihwa adds, before they both leave Imladris; to his fate. Eihwa meanwhile cheers... "Have what for at thee, my Lind amore!"
"Don't help her!! ACK!!" ...CLASH/BLAST/DELUGE!!

One loverly thing to denote of the Hikari Net, you can be entertained by such afar sights, for the mere bare of looking for. Such Megumi chuckles. "Poor King-dude. Not."
": - Let's get er all going. - :" ...an Admiral Commanded.
"AYE!" ...came from a lot Gaian vocals. From a lot of vessels, and more. Said such as afar Pretai Docks seemed to flare alive more, same for closer in Starbases, of vessels of numerable Classes, began their own formal Fold and Hyper-Warp traffic. Already busy enough with star-traffic tubes meshing past the awaiting fleet, all such suddenly erupted of engorged amounts of exit traffic.
Megumi, one of the Fleet high Commanders now, informed off trained doctrine, hammered in, and chiseled fine of fifty years of study, of prior intra-galactic events from Alpha operations, informed over Hikari-Comms... "Remember to report all anew Contact through Fleet. CIC will attend to Council off any findings. Remember F.C. procedures, and good luck to all."
Cascading calls and cheers, were the send off, as Plan Beta began formally.
Keiba of his impart, orders... "Let's check in on Orion Arm space."
"Localizing fold: Sector 109.475/A-172.33. Beginning Fold." ...A Glassian Navi-Tech echoed. Such the shivers really cascaded from there. The same of brilliant points of light, as Fold space contracted vessels into brilliant thin lines, denoting entry into Hikari two-dimension Foldspace, off the energon of the Hiakri Seed Core applying and supplying the same, before the Angelus added its own star, to the exiting Gaian fold.
Activity, and opportunity such began from there.
