Fail Mail - Hyperion Edition

Last night I logged on just mainly to move my Omen from Sujarento to Nennamailia. But I saw a Hawk loitering around a plex entrance so I decided to try my ship against it. Easy Victory. Dual Medium ASB won't help you when you spend the first part of the fight shooting at my drones, sir.

I got back to Nenna safely but had encountered a largish militia fleet on the way. I decided to join them because "what the hell". They were flying shield ships but the only shield ship I had in base was a rail Harpy so I took that.

As I was racing to catch up to the fleet the call came out on comms "War Target Hyperion tackled in Kedema!"

Wait! I'm in Kedema!! As the fleet, which was a couple jumps off turned around and raced back, I helped the Stiletto tackler keep the Hyperion busy. Which was surprisingly easy as there was no drones and he had railguns fitted and he was 80 km off the gate. I threw on my tackle and just as the fleet was about to arrive a war target in a Maller shows up ~40 km off.

Now I make a mistake. Eager to get a point on the Maller for the arriving fleet I hit approach and get in way too close and get scrammed. I tried to get away but without the MWD I could not, and I failed to try to get under the guns upon this realization. As the medium ASB runs out of charges, I run out of time.

Fortunately, the Hyperion and Maller both die.

Now take a look at that Hyperion killmail:
Mission Running Fit?
Now look at the summary:
Loot gods hate us.

Best part? He had drones he never bothered to try and use on the Stiletto which was alone for a good minute before I got there.
