Well, that was a thing. So me and Aldaris have an understanding now, I think. Because of things. Things I'll be able to put in writing some day. In any case, Aldaris is calmer now. He's gone from seeing us humans as annoyances to seeing us as people-like beings, Maybe even slightly above animals. Hey, it's progress.
What's shocking is that he actually admitted he deleted me and Statkus' memory. Heh, yeah, I already wrote it up in an earlier part of this journal, so that I could have a nice, sudden ending. But of course I couldn't write about it unless I knew it happened. Yep, apparently I got the idea in my head that I didn't want to delete some pictures Statkus took on his phone of Aldaris' ship. Charlie decided he wanted to explain all of this because...uh, I don't actually know. I think it was like a combination of a warning, and sort of an opening up of trust. I don't want to be presumptuous, but I'm starting to think the guy halfway trusts me. D'aww. Or maybe he feels sorry for me or something. I don't know.
We talked about it, and I explained that I'm not really interested in Protoss technology (other than looking at it -- crystal based stuff is pretty), and that we humans have to figure out stuff for ourselves. Not to mention bad people getting their hands on it, or it not even working because we're not a psychic race. I was telling the truth, but Aldaris might not have believed me. Even as I said it, I couldn't help but wonder if I'm a traitor. Even though I don't think Aldaris would attack Earth by his lonesome, in general the Protoss are potential enemies of humans. These are the people who destroyed planets on a self-righteous whim. If we were in the K Sector right now, my opinion might be different, but for right now I'm defaulting to manners. Manners mean no stealing.
