š ļø MISSION REPORT: I WAS JUST A WARP DRIVE ENGINEER
This log is unauthorized. I am not supposed to be writing this.
But I have to. Because you need to know.
My nameās not important. My rank? Non-senior warp drive maintenance tech. Just another grease rat making the god-machine run.
But here's what they donāt tell you in Mechanicus orientation:
If you write this, you die. If you speak this, you vanish. If you think too loud, they promote you to plasma fertilizer.
Or worseā they assign you to female barracks as a pleasure servitor. With a permanently vibrating rod where your dick used to be.
Yeah. That kind of trouble.
But Iām writing this anyway.
Because what happens inside warp ships? Isnāt just science. Itās fucking sorcery duct-taped together with imperial faith and denial.
You think we understand warp travel?
We donāt. Weāre winging it.
All those big, confident orders from the bridge? All those āstellar-calibratedā jump trajectories?
Theyāre guesses.
Educated guesses dipped in holy oil and blessed by a priest who doesnāt know how physics works.
šØ Hereās what they donāt say out loud:
Warp travel isnāt reliable. Warp travel isnāt safe. Warp travel isnāt travel.
Itās rolling the dice with reality and hoping the Eye of Terror isnāt blinking that day.
And thatād be fine if we were all 8-foot-tall genetically sculpted demigods running on gold-plated protein paste and jizzed into existence by the Emperor himself.
You know the ones. The big chads. The thunder-voiced murder-angels who could drink plutonium through a bendy straw and shit out silicon daggers while flexing.
But Iām not one of them.
And neither are you.
Weāre regular-ass humans. Joe Grunts. Janitors. Welders. Engineers. The people who actually keep the fleet floating while praying we donāt get telefragged by some demon dickworm when the warp opens like a rotten zipper.
Hereās a fun fact: Every ship doses you with the radiation equivalent of a kitchen microwave on tantrum mode. Constantly.
Youāre basically living in a cosmic tumor accelerator with plumbing.
Did you know that?
No. Of course not. Because you didnāt read the small print.
Because you were too busy kissing your service bonus and telling your mom you'd āsee her after the next run.ā
You won't.
Wanna hear something worse?
Iāve seen crew just not be there after a jump.
No alarms. No screams. No blood trails. Just missing.
āAcceptable misplacement,ā they call it.
ACCEPTABLE. MISPLACEMENT.
Like they left their body in a cargo bin and forgot to tag it.
But Iāve seen things.
Things we havenāt named. Things we canāt name because anyone who sees them doesnāt finish the sentence.
One jump, they said we were āclear.ā āTotally clean warp event.ā āWe beat the drift,ā blah blah.
But I saw them.
š¤ A few MIAās. Walking. Shuffling. In the darker corners. Of engineering. Of the waterline crawlspace.
Wrong.
Too quiet. Too smooth. Too mirrored. Like someone was trying to recreate their body from a description given by something that doesnāt have bones.
One turned. I swear to the Throne, it turned like a meat puppet on strings.
Didnāt blink. Didnāt breathe. Didnāt stop.
I ran.
I wasnāt brave. I didnāt ask questions. I didnāt take samples.
I ran because whatever that was had too many teeth in places that donāt open.
I filed nothing. I spoke to no one. Because speaking gets you flagged.
And flagged gets you āreassigned.ā Or āaccidentally ventilated.ā Or ādonated to the tech-priest autopsy internship program.ā
Weāre told to trust the Machine God. To bless the sacred cog. To pray before every jump.
Let me tell you something:
No god worth worshiping makes you breathe recycled fear through warp-peeled lungs while your fingernails grow wrong.
Since I got back groundside?
I havenāt looked in a mirror.
Not once.
My reflectionās been off.
Too fast. Too slow. Too⦠curious.
It looks at me like itās waiting for me to catch up. Or get tired. So it can step forward first.
You ever feel your smile stretch one beat too late? Thatās the warp residue. Thatās the part of you that didnāt come back alone.
I donāt sleep well anymore.
I hear static in my dreams. I see hands reaching through reactor vents. I feel air where there shouldnāt be air trying to crawl inside me.
The Mechanicus wonāt admit this. The Inquisition sure as fuck wonāt. But Iāll say it:
The warp is not a route. Itās a predator.
And we keep feeding it by pretending itās a tunnel instead of a mouth.
If youāve been lucky enough not to jump yetā
Donāt.
If they tell you itās safeā
Theyāre lying.
If they say āJust this one run, the cogitators are stableāā
You run.
Or youāll be like me.
Grounded. Rattling. Haunted by your own face.
And praying your reflection never blinks first.
š Archive Protocol: āNever enter the warp. Itās already inside you.ā
