You don't EVEN want to know how close I came to sending you a message that at least one of us would have regretted.

I did ask the Outcast to leave the system, and he fired first. Fine. Incident closed.

Did we rescind our Bretonian nationality when we started working for this fine organization? I recall that you were complaining recently about how many expatriates that work here now.

Oh, and I will just mention in passing that it was a pirate the killed MY family, too. Remember MY honor is involved in dealing with these pirate scum. I respect the company and what you and the administration are attempting to do with the professionalism of the ... profession. *cough* Keep in mind we're still human out here.

One other minor detail - if you want us to get to our systems and operating zones, you might want to talk to whoever is programming our computers. I would've been there a HELL of a lot quicker if my starmap was working right. It felt like I was flying the routes twice. Dammit, Jim, I'm a pilot, not a Lane Hacker.

*sound of long drink being taken, followed by breaking glass sounds*

I miss my wife, you know? My children... so precious...

*sobbing*

<different voice>

Hey, cousin, you've had a rough day. You need to get some rest. Those memories won't kill you, but that cheap liquor will. You'll find the bastard that killed them one day, and you'll have your vengeance. Until then, let's get you in bed and ready to fly right later.

What the hell are you doing? Let's get this turned off.

Umm - whoever this is going to, he's had a rough day. I don't know what was said, but my cousin is a good man. He's got a fire and passion in his heart. Sometimes the flame burns too high is all.
