man Naomi just redefined what it means to have a bad day. if I was in as much physical and emotional distress as her, I would have just been like, pashang this and set off the explosives to be done with it.
I have no bookreading plans so not that concerned about which format did what better, but the relatively small scale of Marco's attack and subsequent declaration of owning everything beyond Earth's atmosphere makes him sort of pretty dumb. it would be like if after 9/11, Bin Laden broadcast a message saying that the Middle East is now fully in control, and America will face destruction if it tries to do anything beyond its own borders.
they're debating how much of a response to enact, but if it really came down to it, the UN and whatever part of Mars that hasn't switched sides would be more than enough to wipe the Belt clean from the solar system several times over.
