#23

The Homeworlders were rather tired of acronyms. They used to use them all over the place, but near the start of wartime they'd begun phasing them out. Now they got to laugh at the humans, with all their ridiculousness.

UNIT
PROBE
MEOW

The list goes on. Ridiculous really. Instead, the Houses were now thinking up new and interesting names for things. Like Ghost Clusters. Or Nechronomancer Patrols. That, that was a cutting edge name. Sleek, shiny. Rolls off the tongue. Not like the old names. The Demat Chamber. No style. Oubliette of Eternity sounds so much more intimidating, you know?
