[Sat 1:24:10 PM] undefined - Kristian:
Kristian is afk

[Sat 1:30:58 PM] undefined - Rob:
Heard you

[Sat 1:31:02 PM] undefined - Michelle:
heard ya

[Sat 1:33:12 PM] undefined - Rob:
Obviously our choice is to take out both sides and take everything for ourselves.

[Sat 1:33:30 PM] undefined - Michelle:
yes

[Sat 1:33:37 PM] undefined - Veth:
sure

[Sat 1:33:37 PM] undefined - Rob:
Yup.

[Sat 1:33:50 PM] undefined - Rob:
Also correct. At least not at this time.

[Sat 1:34:24 PM] undefined - Michelle:
save those so Dirk can woo his bae

[Sat 1:35:51 PM] undefined - Michelle:
Ok, waiting sounds good.

[Sat 1:36:01 PM] undefined - Rob:
I say we hold off until after this job.

[Sat 1:38:03 PM] undefined - Rob:
Do we have to pay for any begged/borrowed/stolen shuttle that gets totaled?

[Sat 1:38:16 PM] undefined - Michelle:
lol

[Sat 1:38:24 PM] undefined - Jason K:
lol

[Sat 1:38:47 PM] undefined - Jason K:
A compelling case to acquire our own vehicle

[Sat 1:39:13 PM] undefined - Michelle:
You know something we don’t? ;)

[Sat 1:39:24 PM] undefined - Rob:
Yeah, I remember that. Roland is good at fixing stuff, so either works. But it’s likely best we get our own so we don’t wind up owing someone.

[Sat 1:40:38 PM] undefined - Michelle:
go for it then?

[Sat 1:40:51 PM] undefined - Rob:
No objections from me.

[Sat 1:41:20 PM] undefined - Michelle:
forge aiden’s signature…

[Sat 1:41:39 PM] undefined - Michelle:

[Sat 1:43:04 PM] undefined - Veth:

[Sat 1:43:24 PM] undefined - Michelle:

[Sat 1:43:43 PM] undefined - Michelle:

[Sat 1:43:48 PM] undefined - Veth:
people watching on the streets to prep for being stuck on a ship a while.

[Sat 1:44:15 PM] undefined - Rob:
We give him Dirk’s.

[Sat 1:44:32 PM] undefined - Rob:
Or we can give him Dirk, I guess, if he sings that way.

[Sat 1:44:43 PM] undefined - Rob:
Or swings rather.

[Sat 1:46:29 PM] undefined - Veth:
“working the Judge” name of Jack’s sex tape.

[Sat 1:46:47 PM] undefined - Michelle:
see? we don’t need mayvik

[Sat 1:47:15 PM] undefined - Michelle:
yes

[Sat 1:47:29 PM] undefined - Kristian:
Kristian is back

[Sat 1:47:29 PM] undefined - Kristian:
I’m here

[Sat 1:47:34 PM] undefined - Veth:
hehe

[Sat 1:47:55 PM] undefined - Kristian:

[Sat 1:48:14 PM] undefined - Kristian:
lame

[Sat 1:48:22 PM] undefined - Michelle:
we get impounded

[Sat 1:48:35 PM] undefined - Veth:
lol

[Sat 1:48:59 PM] undefined - Kristian:
I see no problem with this

[Sat 1:49:24 PM] undefined - Kristian:
WITNESS STAND MEEEEEE

[Sat 1:49:47 PM] undefined - Rob:
In other words, everything’s normal.

[Sat 1:50:05 PM] undefined - Michelle:
make it so

[Sat 1:51:47 PM] undefined - Michelle:
Especially when we’re hauling some illegal arms

[Sat 1:52:02 PM] undefined - Kristian:
what was trip duration again?

[Sat 1:52:34 PM] undefined - Michelle:
We have enough downtime for skills stuff out of all this? Or did we abandon the training stuff?

[Sat 1:52:41 PM] Dirk Yang - Kristian:
Dirk Yang plays chess and hits the gym

[Sat 1:52:47 PM] undefined - Michelle:
okie

[Sat 1:53:28 PM] undefined - Michelle:
Daniel will spend time doing repairwork and hanging with the marines

[Sat 1:53:42 PM] undefined - Kristian:
Dirk uses Check Out Mah Gainz, Brah

[Sat 1:54:53 PM] undefined - Michelle:
snazzy

[Sat 1:54:58 PM] undefined - Kristian:

[Sat 1:54:57 PM] undefined - Jason K:
Faaaancy

[Sat 1:55:14 PM] undefined - Kristian:
jfwy

[Sat 1:55:27 PM] undefined - Veth:
I liked that one :)

[Sat 1:55:32 PM] undefined - Rob:
Pretty good.

[Sat 1:57:13 PM] undefined - Rob:
Good assumption.

[Sat 1:57:14 PM] undefined - Michelle:
open the torpedo tubes?

[Sat 1:57:21 PM] undefined - Michelle:
lol.. no

[Sat 1:57:45 PM] undefined - Jason K:
Neeeerd (but also yes)

[Sat 1:57:48 PM] undefined - Veth:
SOmeone fire up the mass drivers! WE’re gonna Narn this place up!

[Sat 1:58:09 PM] undefined - Kristian:
we’re gonna shoot Swan out of the torpedo tube onto the station?

[Sat 1:58:15 PM] undefined - Michelle:
hahahah

[Sat 1:58:31 PM] undefined - Michelle:
slow and steady

[Sat 1:58:35 PM] undefined - Kristian:
Dirk signals our surrender

[Sat 1:58:41 PM] Dirk Yang - Kristian:
7

[Sat 1:58:47 PM] undefined - Rob:
Signaling our surrender is?

[Sat 1:58:51 PM] undefined - Kristian:
he fails, we are still unsurrendered

[Sat 1:59:06 PM] undefined - Veth:
Dirk failed to surrender. That’s what we do.

[Sat 1:59:05 PM] undefined - Rob:
Nice. You’ve just declared war.

[Sat 1:59:42 PM] undefined - Michelle:
Think that’s you, Cara

[Sat 1:59:51 PM] undefined - Kristian:
shoots the comms panel

[Sat 1:59:58 PM] undefined - Kristian:
just a uh, minor weapons malfunction…

[Sat 1:59:58 PM] undefined - Jason K:
Is it? She’s not the most…eloquent lol

[Sat 2:00:06 PM] undefined - Jason K:
What ARE we telling them??

[Sat 2:00:10 PM] undefined - Michelle:
You wanna let Dirk do it??

[Sat 2:00:24 PM] undefined - Rob:
So NOT Dirk.

[Sat 2:00:26 PM] undefined - Michelle:
ok, Angelica then

[Sat 2:00:57 PM] undefined - Veth:
If you want to reenact Han Solo in the prison room you could ask Din..

[Sat 2:01:02 PM] undefined - Jen:
she can’t lie

[Sat 2:01:07 PM] undefined - Kristian:
tell them it’s the USO show bringing morale relief for the planet, Tomoe is going to pose on top of an illegal anti-aircraft gun we brought in for the occassion

[Sat 2:01:09 PM] undefined - Veth:
“We’re fine, everything’s fine.. how are you?”

[Sat 2:01:15 PM] undefined - Jen:
have Cara do it!

[Sat 2:01:19 PM] undefined - Michelle:
lol

[Sat 2:02:11 PM] undefined - Kristian:
Dirk has no int and 4 advocate. ” WE ARE SOVEREIGN CITIZENS ARE WE BEING DETAINED”

[Sat 2:02:14 PM] undefined - Michelle:
aka - the ones not to play poker with

[Sat 2:02:45 PM] undefined - Rob:
We’ll just fly casual for now.

[Sat 2:03:14 PM] undefined - Michelle:
“This is IBI Legitimate Salvage requesting permission to orbit.”

[Sat 2:03:25 PM] undefined - Michelle:
Don’t think we need to dock just yet

[Sat 2:03:31 PM] undefined - Veth:
STATE YOUR CORPUS DELECTIBLE!

[Sat 2:03:29 PM] undefined - Rob:
Tell them we just need to set a geostatic orbit over the settlement so we can bomb it.

[Sat 2:04:18 PM] undefined - Kristian:
“oh uh, what are all these weapons for?

[Sat 2:04:20 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
(over comm) We’re here on a private charter and requesting an orbital path

[Sat 2:04:58 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
9

[Sat 2:05:06 PM] undefined - Kristian:
docking computer sounds like something Calliope can haxx0r

[Sat 2:06:00 PM] undefined - Jen:
I’m glad we didn’t decide to gun it and hide

[Sat 2:06:07 PM] Cara Burton - Jason K:
What, precisely, is our next step? Are we going to the surface?

[Sat 2:07:14 PM] undefined - Jen:
eventually

[Sat 2:07:40 PM] undefined - Michelle:
huh. So when we arrived, the only thing in orbit was the station, right? No mercs here yet?

[Sat 2:07:55 PM] undefined - Michelle:
well, other than us

[Sat 2:08:33 PM] undefined - Rob:
Yeah, we’re the only ones here aside from the station. Not sure if someone can ‘hide’ a ship somewhere.

[Sat 2:09:17 PM] undefined - Michelle:
If they’re there to threaten the populace, why hide?

[Sat 2:09:32 PM] undefined - Kristian:
I feel like we shouldn’t worry about 1 big ship, but a shitload of small ships.

[Sat 2:10:41 PM] Daniel Eckhart - Michelle:
We ought to at least contact this Carter guy.

[Sat 2:11:50 PM] Din Strata - Veth:
Din Strata looks around expectantly.

[Sat 2:12:07 PM] Cara Burton - Jason K:
Cara Burton presses the “receive” button

[Sat 2:12:49 PM] undefined - Kristian:
we have chosen..death!

[Sat 2:13:03 PM] undefined - Veth:
Ramming speed!

[Sat 2:13:41 PM] undefined - Rob:
I prefer cake.

[Sat 2:13:51 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
Hi Jim, We’ve had many offers and we’re still considering our options.

[Sat 2:14:06 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
oops

[Sat 2:14:08 PM] undefined - Veth:
lol

[Sat 2:14:15 PM] undefined - Kristian:
1 1

[Sat 2:14:19 PM] undefined - Veth:
KEEP CALLING HIM JIM!

[Sat 2:14:19 PM] undefined - Jen:
fail

[Sat 2:14:19 PM] undefined - Michelle:
You have insulted me! You must die!

[Sat 2:14:25 PM] Din Strata - Veth:
It’s a power move!

[Sat 2:14:26 PM] undefined - Kristian:
yeah that’s an Alpha move

[Sat 2:14:39 PM] undefined - Kristian:
sorry Jim you’re breaking up, say again?

[Sat 2:15:35 PM] undefined - Kristian:
Dirk: AHHCTUALLLYYYY

[Sat 2:16:35 PM] undefined - Kristian:
OK BAI click

[Sat 2:16:58 PM] undefined - Veth:
Damnit jim, I’m a corporate mercenary, not a politician!

[Sat 2:17:00 PM] undefined - Kristian:
are we on open audio?

[Sat 2:17:03 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
Tragic, Jim. It’s all so very tragic. We intend to weigh all circumstances.

[Sat 2:17:11 PM] undefined - Michelle:
lol

[Sat 2:17:55 PM] undefined - Rob:
The jig is up. We open fire with all weapons.

[Sat 2:17:58 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
We understand, and appreciate your patiences.

[Sat 2:18:01 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
or not

[Sat 2:18:12 PM] Cara Burton - Jason K:
He seems intent on making the decision for us. I do not want to work with that man.

[Sat 2:18:18 PM] Daniel Eckhart - Michelle:
rolls his eyes Corporate suits.

[Sat 2:18:27 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
I agree

[Sat 2:18:35 PM] undefined - Kristian:
Daniel?

[Sat 2:18:39 PM] undefined - Kristian:
we don’t have a lot of thuggery

[Sat 2:18:39 PM] Roland Denhardt - Rob:
Roland Denhardt shrugs

[Sat 2:18:46 PM] undefined - Kristian:
put Swann on

[Sat 2:18:46 PM] undefined - Veth:
I do have jack of all trades pretty high if we need to though

[Sat 2:18:46 PM] Roland Denhardt - Rob:
Strongarm tactics.

[Sat 2:18:51 PM] undefined - Kristian:
LISTEN UP MOTHERFUCKER

[Sat 2:18:58 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
We’ll have Swain let him down

[Sat 2:19:54 PM] undefined - Jen:
we should totally go talk to Jeffery

[Sat 2:20:06 PM] Daniel Eckhart - Michelle:
I say screw Jim and check in with Carter.

[Sat 2:20:21 PM] undefined - Jen:
agree

[Sat 2:20:26 PM] Daniel Eckhart - Michelle:
Daniel Eckhart props his feet on a console

[Sat 2:20:57 PM] Din Strata - Veth:
Seems fun.

[Sat 2:24:27 PM] undefined - Kristian:
Swann: SURPRISE MOTHERFUCKER

[Sat 2:25:10 PM] undefined - Debinani:
Gregor Dimov

[Sat 2:25:13 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
Hello Mr. Carter, We have made no decisions, however we had the pleasure of speaking with Greg Demov.

[Sat 2:25:26 PM] undefined - Kristian:
that’s nerd shit

[Sat 2:25:38 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
We’d like to know what your take on the situation is?

[Sat 2:25:54 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
So much fun.

[Sat 2:26:05 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
coughs

[Sat 2:26:48 PM] undefined - Michelle:
Does he know anything about the expert guys being there?

[Sat 2:27:56 PM] Din Strata - Veth:
I wonder what’s down there that they won’t even consider their request.

[Sat 2:28:23 PM] undefined - Michelle:
yeah, meant that Jen could ask him that :)

[Sat 2:28:41 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
Do you know anything about the Anderson scouts?

[Sat 2:31:19 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
Are explosions a common occurance?

[Sat 2:32:29 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
Was anyone else there?

[Sat 2:33:46 PM] undefined - Veth:
I say we kill everyone and take the planet as our own.

[Sat 2:33:48 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
Sad state of affairs.

[Sat 2:34:03 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
Has anyone else offered to help you?

[Sat 2:34:36 PM] undefined - Kristian:
obviously there’s like a big alien artifact like the Abyss buried in there and they are going to fight tooth and nail for it…then xenomorphs kill us all.

[Sat 2:34:59 PM] undefined - Veth:
if you see blue pollen, RUN.

[Sat 2:35:15 PM] undefined - Jen:
do we need anything else?

[Sat 2:36:15 PM] undefined - Kristian:
now is when we start negotiating for more money

[Sat 2:36:18 PM] undefined - Michelle:
Tell Jim to shove it and ask these guys to send a shuttle

[Sat 2:36:56 PM] undefined - Rob:
So forcing out the settlers is technically legal?

[Sat 2:37:08 PM] undefined - Kristian:
basically everything is lega

[Sat 2:37:12 PM] undefined - Veth:
We could ask jim why he won’t negotiate.

[Sat 2:37:51 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
Thank you for filling in the blanks for us. We need to discuss this. We’re get back to you.

[Sat 2:37:53 PM] undefined - Michelle:
I don’t think he’ll answer that. He’ll just tell us the contract is withdrawn

[Sat 2:38:16 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
They sound desperate

[Sat 2:38:24 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
I wonder what Anderson found.

[Sat 2:38:33 PM] Daniel Eckhart - Michelle:
Daniel Eckhart drops his feet back to the floor

[Sat 2:38:53 PM] undefined - Kristian:
I assume it would be illegal for us to claim the planet as our own and kill everyone.

[Sat 2:39:01 PM] undefined - Rob:
We can kidnap the experts and torture them to find out what the real story is. But that’s probably not a great idea.

[Sat 2:39:06 PM] undefined - Kristian:
we showed up and everyone was dead…we claim it as salvage

[Sat 2:39:12 PM] undefined - Kristian:
sorry DECLARE it as salvage

[Sat 2:39:50 PM] Daniel Eckhart - Michelle:
Not much to consider. These people call this place home and made it work. We should help them keep it.

[Sat 2:40:15 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
They’re filing emancipation. I’m going to look in what the hold us is. I’m sure Anderson has some hold there.

[Sat 2:40:17 PM] Din Strata - Veth:
Sure, but we should try and find out what the deal is.

[Sat 2:40:51 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
I agree with Daniel.

[Sat 2:41:20 PM] Dirk Yang - Kristian:
From a legal standpoint..we’re covered either way. I agree we should probably milk Andersen for more intel

[Sat 2:41:19 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
I’m not helping line corrupt corporate pockets.

[Sat 2:41:32 PM] Dirk Yang - Kristian:
but we would be stone bastards to not side with the settlers.

[Sat 2:41:43 PM] undefined - Veth:
But Angela… WE are corrupt corporate pockets!

[Sat 2:42:02 PM] undefined - Kristian:
lol…Angelica Triggs: CIA AnCap Activist

[Sat 2:42:10 PM] undefined - Kristian:
WE ARE LITERALLY CORPORATOCRACY

[Sat 2:42:19 PM] undefined - Kristian:
we’re basically Erik Prince lol

[Sat 2:42:34 PM] undefined - Jen:
she needs to draw the line somehwere

[Sat 2:42:37 PM] undefined - Michelle:
yeah, but we aren’t holding him at gunpoint for them!

[Sat 2:42:40 PM] Cara Burton - Jason K:
It would be a shame to go through all effort to get ourselves a warship only to use it to become bullies and take boring jobs that any C-tier merc company could take.

[Sat 2:42:47 PM] undefined - Veth:
I like squiggly lines.

[Sat 2:43:05 PM] Daniel Eckhart - Michelle:
Daniel Eckhart grins at Cara

[Sat 2:43:53 PM] Din Strata - Veth:
We could interrogate Jim a bit..

[Sat 2:44:02 PM] Din Strata - Veth:
Let him think we’re taking his side.

[Sat 2:44:08 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
We can call back Anderson to discuss, hypothetically, what kind of help we’d receive. Maybe gather information on why this is so important to them.

[Sat 2:44:22 PM] Dirk Yang - Kristian:
So…let’s be careful.

[Sat 2:44:24 PM] Din Strata - Veth:
Agreed.

[Sat 2:44:32 PM] Dirk Yang - Kristian:
We can protect the settlers legally, if we’re hired on and contracted

[Sat 2:44:30 PM] undefined - Michelle:
just have to be careful not to sound like we agreed to accept his contract

[Sat 2:44:45 PM] Dirk Yang - Kristian:
Right now if we start assaulting people that is NOT going to fly legally.

[Sat 2:45:08 PM] Dirk Yang - Kristian:
We’re in a grey area limbo right now until we sign up on paper with one or the other.

[Sat 2:45:33 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
If we call, they’ll want an answer.

[Sat 2:45:56 PM] Angelica Triggs - Jen:
If we say no…then they’re going to know and lose an edge, unless we lie.

[Sat 2:46:16 PM] Cara Burton - Jason K:
What if we tell him we won’t take the job unless they explain why they aren’t negotiating with the colony? Doesn’t commit us to taking the job, we say no either way, but maybe get some info.

[Sat 2:46:56 PM] Din Strata - Veth:
Could work.

[Sat 2:47:57 PM] undefined - Rob:
Would he know why AE keeps shooting down the requests for emancipation? Or is he not in a position where they’d tell him that?

[Sat 2:48:02 PM] undefined - Michelle:
If he’s a public-facing company guy, he’s also not likely to give away anything easily. Gotta stick to the party line.

[Sat 2:49:21 PM] undefined - Rob:
I might’ve missed this but did we ever talk to either of those two?

[Sat 2:50:23 PM] undefined - Rob:
Ah. Wasn’t quite sure what the link was. Wei’s page conveniently doesn’t exist on the wiki.

[Sat 2:51:05 PM] undefined - Rob:
Finding out what’s so important down there from one of those two might be more feasible.

[Sat 2:51:38 PM] Dirk Yang - Kristian:
Does anyone right now see us siding with the company?

[Sat 2:51:48 PM] Daniel Eckhart - Michelle:
Nope

[Sat 2:51:53 PM] Dirk Yang - Kristian:
Regardless of what super secret shady stuff is going on?

[Sat 2:52:04 PM] Din Strata - Veth:
Maybe? If there was some crazy good reason.

[Sat 2:52:17 PM] Dirk Yang - Kristian:
I think that’s probably our answer then. See if we can manipulate Jim, but otherwise our decision is made.

[Sat 2:52:17 PM] undefined - Rob:
Yeah, sorry, I missed part of that. Had to take a quick call earlier and caught the end but wasn’t sure what the explosion thing was about.

[Sat 2:53:21 PM] undefined - Rob:
Would we have the resources to excavate that area? And be able to do it without breaking any major laws?

[Sat 2:54:43 PM] undefined - Rob:
I say we try that as an alternate approach to finding out what’s going on.

[Sat 2:55:02 PM] undefined - Rob:
Anyone else have any thoughts?

[Sat 2:55:18 PM] undefined - Michelle:
Our only way to the surface is with the colony’s shuttles, so as soon as we do that, the company will know that we aren’t taking their contract

[Sat 2:55:30 PM] undefined - Michelle:
oh yeah

[Sat 2:55:28 PM] undefined - Rob:
We have our own shuttle.

[Sat 2:55:44 PM] undefined - Michelle:
Sorry. tired and not always on point. lol

[Sat 2:56:01 PM] undefined - Kristian:
can we rig up some AA cannons to the shuttle? or just duct tape Swann to the front?

[Sat 2:56:13 PM] undefined - Michelle:
And we have to give Jim an answer by the time we orbit

[Sat 2:56:31 PM] undefined - Jen:
do we want to poke around before calling back?

[Sat 2:56:40 PM] undefined - Michelle:
Swan has a suit, but no BFG

[Sat 2:57:04 PM] undefined - Kristian:
did we just pay Swann, or give him a stake?

[Sat 2:57:17 PM] undefined - Kristian:
we can always stake him later I guess

[Sat 2:57:18 PM] undefined - Michelle:
shhh

[Sat 2:57:35 PM] undefined - Rob:
Stake him? You think Swan’s a vampire?

[Sat 2:57:42 PM] undefined - Kristian:
let’s just fly by the station with “FUCK YOU ANDERSEN MINING” paper up in the window

[Sat 2:57:59 PM] undefined - Kristian:
and Dirk mooning them

[Sat 2:58:06 PM] undefined - Michelle:
sky write it with the shuttle while we land

[Sat 2:58:28 PM] undefined - Veth:
I thought dirk didn’t wear pants? Isn’t he always mooning everyone?

[Sat 2:58:35 PM] undefined - Kristian:
we should park the ship facing the station, open torpedo tubes and send the shuttle lol

[Sat 2:58:41 PM] undefined - Michelle:
Tell Jim no and just land without telling him anything else.

[Sat 2:58:47 PM] undefined - Rob:
We had a judge issue a court order that Dirk must wear pants at all time.

[Sat 2:59:16 PM] undefined - Michelle:
I need to step away. It’s medication time here. Might be more than 10 minutes if you break soon.

[Sat 2:59:22 PM] undefined - Jen:
then we should call back?

[Sat 2:59:27 PM] undefined - Michelle:
Michelle is afk

[Sat 2:59:43 PM] Din Strata - Veth:
I say we call back, ask what we want answered and decide.

[Sat 3:00:03 PM] undefined - Kristian:
“medication time” sounds an awful lot like hobbling and chicken soup there, Misery

[Sat 3:00:25 PM] undefined - Rob:
Break now. Give Khara a chance to be here for the call.

[Sat 3:00:33 PM] undefined - Kristian:
no pref

[Sat 3:00:39 PM] undefined - Rob:
Rob is afk

[Sat 3:00:44 PM] undefined - Kristian:
Kristian is afk

[Sat 3:00:47 PM] Debinani - Debinani:

Break Time
