Richard Cole's Journal

[Duvelske]

"Kallisti, just come in.. Sander did pour in some drinks allready." Both Eric and Jack nods and go inside. Richard closes the door behind them and starts to walk towards the table. "Please take a seat.".. they all going to sit down. While Eric is sitting down he picks up the glass Sander just did pour in and looks towards Sander "Wel Sander i was not aware you would have been here with this meeting. I think another view on this matter would not be bad." in the meantime Richard sits down and Sander responds. "You are right Eric. i.." Richard interrupts Sander. "Sander i have to interrupt you. As my time is short i want to just go straight to the point. And not wander too much of it." Eric Jack and Sander nods. and Richard continues "Both Jack and Eric have investigated the station blueprints. Would it improve something to our old station blueprints? The one we used with our old Freeport XXI?" Eric looks at Jack and then he gets a small ball. out of his pockets. "We have indeed investigated it and i have made a holosculpture of it. With the findings included." he puts the small ball in an opening on the table. A holosculpture is beeing viewed above the table. First its clouded then it becomes more and more clear.. Eventually its a clear image and Eric is going to explain "In the past we had problems with some power relays. Wich resulted into several losses of the power in several sections of the station. The old construction failed in these sections." Eric points towards several positions on the holosculpture. "The shield engines on this point had problems when it was under a big attack, wich made it fail in the end. This was the reason we had to evacuate everyone and disbandon the station. While Jack and i where at first looking how we could improve this flaw in the design, we found these blueprints some additional improvements for a possible improvement for in the future. Even the blueprints had some design flaws, but we looked it closely and came up with some sollutions for it." Eric takes his drink and Jack stands up in the meantime. "On the station blueprints i brought along to investigate there where some expensions on it wich we could include on our own design. It might result into options like these." he shows some other options for a future station with these expension options. "We might add one or even several of these ideas in the future.. But i think it might be dangerous as we have no clue if it would endanger the rest of the station or not. 1 extention might be secure to create." he stops talking a moment and drinks the last out of his glas. You see Sander thinking and then.. "But in general? Would it increase the stations structure? As i do not want to see my family die within a hostile attack." Richard leans a littlebit forwards as Eric responds.. "It will indeed. it would increase the efficiency in overall with almost 20%. Also the activation time for the shields will be increased by some mere seconds." after this response Richard leans a little back.. "So it would be safe to start the construction? As i want to have a secure home for Ryan. I want him to grow up safely and raised as a true discordian." Eric looks towards Richard and he sees his face showing real concearn. "Richard it can allways be sieged by a big force from the outside. It is never inevitable. But you did have contact with Commander Matok from Freeport 6? As i thought you wanted to reconstruct it there?" before Richard could answer Sander interferes "I might be a good idea indeed. It would surely be much more safe then in front of that Kyushu gate. And you could just open a shop wich i heard from my daughter you allways wanted to do." Richard smiles. "Yes i did contact Commander Matok. He approved it. We could also do additional patrols for keeping both Freeport XXI and Freeport 6 safe. During the rebuilding we must keep it really safe. Are too many trigger happy pilots around in Sirius. I would have a request for you all...Moniek and i are really in need of some vacation. As the Barrel.Roll is fully operational now after finishing the last docking bay. We want to go on a trip for at least a year. During this year i hope you all could put in your efforts together to make it happen. I shall make sure you have some billions for the construction and maintenance of the station." They all look towards Richard. All really thinking for this sudden request. But they can see why he took this decision. Sander answers "I have to agree that my daughter needs some time off indeed. And i am happy to help you out with that. This way you could spent some more time with Ryan too. He will grow up fast! Do not forget that." Jack nods "Count me in. Have only 1 request. I want an own private quarters. So i can call it a home too for myself, rather then me wandering trough Sirius i might settle down even meet some nice gal" Eric starts to laugh.. "The gal you met yesterday wasnt that good for ya i guess? I see you every week with another girl. Sorry Richard.. The with the reconstruction i would like to help too. With same request as Jack." "I can agree with you guys on these requests. And there will be space enough so i will be glad if you would see it as a home. We could make sure it will be a safe place. I might indeed make a bar with an additional shop. But we shall see it in the future what we will decide then. So if we make the preparations we could start the construction within 3 months. And i will make preparations for the vacation for Moniek and myself. Eric can you make preperations for the reconstruction?" "Richard i will make them as you wish. I shall make sure it will all be arranged." "So it is all arranged. Now i will bring the good news to Moniek and plan it all with her. If you guys don't mind i will end this meeting. and i will make some preperations." Richard stands up. and while he is standing up they all stand up. Eric takes the ball with the holosculpture back and put it in his pocket. "Ok Richard, i think Sander, Jack and i could better meet later this week to see how we will arrange it all." Jack and Sander nods and they walk towards the door. Richard closes the door behind them and hear them talking on the corridor.. After that he calls Moniek about the Meeting. The call goes.. but it seems she will not answer it..
