to be fair, I have been trying to avoid desert planets for several reasons. but if Janus thinks we can cut a few hours by doing it, might as well.

[shorttermed]

The windy season is steadily approaching in most of them on this side of the system. Dust storms aren't exactly our friends.

[orionids]

fair point. consider that last statement amended. we shouldn't have any reason to be going in those directions unless something absolutely pressing comes up.

[shorttermed]

Let us not be reckless this time. The repairs last time were costly.

[orionids]

trust me, I know. I'm just glad that we were able to take a few jobs here and there to cover those costs.

[shorttermed]

I may have a lead on a bounty, speaking of.

[orionids]

oh? well, I'm all ears.

[shorttermed]

A quack has swindled money from the poor of Nayara. If we find him and he returns their money, we're promised a hefty sum for our efforts.

[orionids]

seems simple enough. sounds right up our alley, anyway. did they give us any leads on where he might be hiding out?

[shorttermed]

I rather like stealing from the rich and giving back to the poor. It feels almost honorable. He was last spotted in the neutral system. We go where he spends his credits.

[orionids]

more honorable than a lot of things.

sounds good, I'll let Jan know to start plotting a course so we can get ready to intercept.

[shorttermed]

Set course for a very glossy
casino.

[orionids]

somehow I'm not surprised.
irritated, but not surprised at all.

[shorttermed]

I think the boys will have fun at least.

[orionids]

so long as they keep their wits about them. I'd rather not get run out before we actually get anything done.




again.

[shorttermed]

I shall give them a stern talking-to beforehand.

[orionids]

thank you. I get the feeling it'll stick better if it's not coming from me for once.

[shorttermed]

Oh, I don't mind. It's partly why I'm here, isn't it? To support?

[orionids]

partially, yes. and if anyone tells you you aren't worth anything to the crew, well...
can't say I'd be willing to tell the others to hold back. I might actually join them myself.

[shorttermed]

Trust me, I know my worth, but I greatly appreciate the boost of confidence. And I do not doubt the passion with which you lot will defend my honor and use.

[orionids]

it's the least we can do. :)

[ savoring the moment!! ]

You spoil me so.

[orionids]

if showing respect to my crew is spoiling them, I suppose so.

[shorttermed]

I mean outside of the standard respect. I feel very accepted.
