'Hehe, welcome to the club of Behemoth Owners!' shouted Manuel from his place on the roof while throwing down a few photographs 'It's ugly as they come, but it's a good hauler. I took these when I bought mine, first id the maiden voyage, leaving Roppongi and the others are from landing on Kurile!'
If the stars should appear one night in a thousand years, how would men believe and adore and preserve for many generations the remembrance of the city of God? - from 'Nightfall' by I. Asimov The Outcasts consider Siniestre Nube a sacred place for several reasons. Early explorers discovered a jumphole within the depths of the cloud that leads to a strange world of ringed stars and strange craft. All ships in the burrial ground are placed facing that hole to honor the Alien Spirits. - An Outcast rumor

"Yeah, Manny... (can I call ya Manny?..), it won't win any beauty contests, but it kinda grows on ya after awhile. What's the tonnage/capacity on that bad boy? I may just have to revise my plans to be the "gentleman proprieter" of a floating crap game/bawdy house/occasional tradin' luxury liner..."
' 'You can call me 'Daddy' as long as you pay me enough' comes to mind as an answer' replied Manuel from up above 'but friends call me Maxxx, for the max profits I find. Anyway, the 'bad boy' can carry more VIPs then a lux liner ever will'.

"Playin' it close to the vest, eh, Manuel? Can't really blame ya for that. Definitely an impressive ship. I'm sure it's way off on the horizon for my wallet, anyway."
"And if they ever fix the bloody stairs, I'll be up there to shake your hand as a prelude to callin' ya Maxxx someday. Hope it's soon."
"OK,OK ... New grav lift is being installed manana, so you buggers can come down from the
roof, alright. Damn, do I have to do everthing round here meself ...
Hope everyones ID paperwork is in order now, don't want anyone caught with their asses
out in the wind now. You all know the rules ...
Good to see you all making the creds, and lots of new ships too ... I seem to be slipping
behind again ... Bloody paperwork.
Sophie, pass me a Flaming Xeno ... I need to lose a few more brain cells.
Urgh ... That is all."

"Righto, Boss. I will admit that Markus and I were samplin' a bit of the cargo as we toddled about last night.. (LOL.. even forget to reload w/ water at Kirule..), but I did have enough synapses firin' to pick up the necessary ID on New Berlin.
"And as to the new lift, that's why ya get the big CEO bucks! Either take it outta your 'golden parachute', or loan the parachute to those poor sods on the roof! (chuckle...)"
Hehe, just give us gold, we'll probably rush off to Kusari or the Nomad space :laugh:

"What, Romer, you haven't tried the Kallisti Gold yet? Special recipe circulating around from that wacky E.L.F. crowd. Makes that synth stuff they poop out at Akita taste like dog crap. Ya ever smoked dog crap, Romer?
"And it does nicer things to your head, too. Little bells go off when "the man" tries to tell ya what ain't so. Somethin' about 'fnords' or somesuch....."
Marauder finally seemed to have reached a decision and stood up, "I'm off to see a guy I know, don't stay up for me or wait around." He then left the sectioned off bar and disappeared.
"Wonder what he's upto now?" markus said thoughtfully.
