Ran into a funny Zoner earlier this evening. Found it a bit odd that he was in a Pilgrim Liner of all things when they've got those fancy advanced ship everyone seems to be wanting. The girl on the camera shrugs and continues her log. Anyway, we had a short discussion about the possibility of us reaching out to them for some upgrades on the CROATOAN, I've heard some things about their Director...a Doctor Montgomery or something or other. Heard he's fairly trustworthy, so we might reach out to him or his team. Additionally, heard some rumblings about the possibility of action going on in California. Some of my old smuggling contacts have indicated that their might be some folks in that sector that could use a recon ship such as the CROATOAN. I think we'll head that way and position ourselves nearby for the sake of a possibility of being hired for some work. Money isn't tight, but I don't like my boys in the freighters being picked on. More to come later. -N

[20.11.2022 04:18:45] SLRC-RV>The.Stagecoach: Brad: We have wears if you have coin
[20.11.2022 04:19:07] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: We don't purchase things. We watch.
[20.11.2022 04:19:51] SLRC-RV>The.Stagecoach: Brad: Ah, all watching no talking, shame shame, must be one of those funny order fellows
[20.11.2022 04:20:18] RDV-CROATOAN: [A mirthless laugh echoes through the comm. channel]
[20.11.2022 04:20:24] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: The Order are clueless.
[20.11.2022 04:20:31] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: As always.
[20.11.2022 04:20:46] SLRC-RV>The.Stagecoach: Brad: Oh don't tell them that to their face, I'm not a fan of conferences with them to settle things down
[20.11.2022 04:20:59] SLRC-RV>The.Stagecoach: Brad: Unless you aren't a zoner, in that case good luck pal
[20.11.2022 04:21:17] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: Ha. Maybe in another life I was. These days...we just like being independent.
[20.11.2022 04:21:35] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: SLRC, researchers yeah?
[20.11.2022 04:21:46] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: Heard of you folks through the grapevine.
[20.11.2022 04:21:56] SLRC-RV>The.Stagecoach: Brad: Ah Freelancers, your the fifth one tonight, bunch of detectives about earlier too
[20.11.2022 04:22:15] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: We might have some work for you in the coming weeks or months. We're performing upgrades on our...vessel.
[20.11.2022 04:22:20] SLRC-RV>The.Stagecoach: Brad: Oh yes, we collect scientific data, assist in research projects, build things, blow things up, pretty standard stuff
[20.11.2022 04:22:29] SLRC-RV>The.Stagecoach: Brad: Well, keep in mind we don't have access to a shipyard
[20.11.2022 04:22:44] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: Hmmm, that could be a problem. A resolution will need to be sought out ahead of time then.
[20.11.2022 04:22:46] SLRC-RV>The.Stagecoach: Brad: We don't speak for the Lividia zoners, they are, even more strange than me
[20.11.2022 04:23:09] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: Indeed.
[20.11.2022 04:23:24] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: A NDA will need to be issued to you and your...uhm...Director I believe? I forget his name.
[20.11.2022 04:23:28] SLRC-RV>The.Stagecoach: Brad: That being said, should Voncloud grant you drydock time there is /very/ little outside of our reach
[20.11.2022 04:23:35] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: ...before any work is done of course.
[20.11.2022 04:23:50] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: Interesting. We will need to see what we can do then.
[20.11.2022 04:23:52] SLRC-RV>The.Stagecoach: Brad: Indeed, Director, Doctor, Montgomery
[20.11.2022 04:24:02] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: Ah, Montgomery, that was his name.
[20.11.2022 04:24:26] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: Yes, we've heard of him before. We will be reaching out after our dealings with NSE are concluded.
[20.11.2022 04:24:29] SLRC-RV>The.Stagecoach: Brad: *chuckles* Its a bit of a mouthfull but he's got the exuberance needed to field this group
[20.11.2022 04:25:00] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: I find the ones with the most interesting names are the most qualified for scientific measures.
[20.11.2022 04:25:12] RDV-CROATOAN: ?: Take my own nomenclature of RTRN-NULL.
[20.11.2022 04:25:32] RDV-CROATOAN: NULL: Not my true name, but it's a handle I adore.
[20.11.2022 04:25:54] SLRC-RV>The.Stagecoach: Brad: I see, well there can certainly be a lot of simbolism in a name
[20.11.2022 04:26:10] RDV-CROATOAN: NULL: Anyway, we have more...sights to see you understand and...an unfortunate limited cloak for the time being.
[20.11.2022 04:26:22] RDV-CROATOAN: NULL: We can't allow the CROATOAN to be seen due to it's technological advances.
[20.11.2022 04:26:36] RDV-CROATOAN: NULL: Fucking spies everywhere.
[20.11.2022 04:26:39] SLRC-RV>The.Stagecoach: Brad: Indeed, we to hide things in the back of fridges at time, can't let the icecream get out
[20.11.2022 04:26:53] RDV-CROATOAN: NULL: ...uh huh. Indeed...I think.
[20.11.2022 04:27:08] RDV-CROATOAN: NULL: Safe travels, Stagecoach. May you discover all the secrets of the universe.
[20.11.2022 04:27:11] SLRC-RV>The.Stagecoach: Brad: We'll, I'll let the boss know you're going to be coming a knocking, ta-ta
[20.11.2022 04:27:19] RDV-CROATOAN: NULL: "What a day for science." someone I once knew would say.
[20.11.2022 04:27:32] RDV-CROATOAN: [The comm. cuts off after a laugh from a woman]
