Cait would listen to the Proposals he brought to the table. She would watch everything closely and raise an eyebrow for some of the positions, nodding for others. She had to keep in Consideration what her customers wanted and what would rather clog up her warehouses. And then there were, of course, the more exotic things like the Nuclear Devices; they were quite rare, but they would also not really give Cait a good feeling to keep close to her family.

Cait: Well, most of these things can find a customer. But others give me a headache, and one of these products even causes a fully grown migraine. The Relics and Artifacts are basically our Bread and Butter when it comes to Barely Legal Goods. We have experience with those and know how to use them. As for the Azurite, I have to say I have no idea what the hell we shall do with that. Maybe I could find a Customer for it, but that is far from our Expertise. But we could offer to act as a Marketplace for it on Barbados. Like this, everyone who wants it knows where to get it. And I could talk to our R&D Department if we can use it for something.

She said and would take a sip of her rum. She was now coming to the thing that would make her more nervous, and that would be a bit of a headache. Cait believed in the Self Defense of Curacao. The Occupation of the Gallics during the war was a thing that Cait never wanted to experience again.

Cait: These Nuclear Devices are pretty hard Stuff. Weapons of Last Resort and Mass Destruction. Something to strengthen our defenses against a possible new Invasion. But also weapons that could mean the Destruction of Curacao´s beauty if they ever fall into the wrong hands. Thankfully, we have so far prevented any attempts by the Gaians to smuggle such a device onto the planet. That you were able to bring these devices here shows that we have some Gaps in our Security Net. I will have to speak to the Director or Spa-Sec about this once we are done here.

Cait would push some buttons on her arm device and would let the Security know to bring the nuclear devices to some Secure Place where they would be no danger to Cait or her Family. Cait did everything she could for those she loved, and that meant that she would protect them with everything she had at her disposal. Still, there were some Limits that even Cait would not break. She smiled at them and tried not to let them notice too much that she was disturbed by how easily they could access these Devices.

Steph: Well, you really seem to have a lot of contacts with people who seem to be able to organize everything someone on the grey market could desire. Especially on a ship like the Barbados, this could be a valuable market for sure. We have some "Friends" who would be highly interested in these sorts of things. And we would of course get a nice commission fee for these kinds of deals.

Cait would look over to Sparrow and think about the things that she would offer. She was quite intrigued by the things they had to offer. The Artifact was something that she had never seen before. Sure, she had seen some Artifacts before, but most of them were damaged and not Active. So to see an Active Artifact like this ways something rare even for Cait. This would be something that would be stored in her Vaults deep down under the Resort. There, she had a Secure Facility that would allow her to store all kinds of Dangerous and illegal things and gadgets. She also had some secret hangars full of Rare Ships and all kinds of specialties that would make the Officers of the LSF or other Law Enforcers have a Heart Attack. Cait was quite the Collector, and after all, Curacao was an independent planet where neither the Laws of Liberty nor Bretonia counted.

Cait: Wow, this is truly something special. I won't ask how you got your hands on something like this. But this is really more special than any Boomstick you could have dug up somewhere.

She would take the Container and look at the Shard inside of it. It did truly capture Cait's Imagination and curiosity. She knew how rare these shards are and how much the Gammu are Protective over their Technology and especially their circuits. This would be the wet Dream for every Scientist, but it would belong to Cait now, and she would surely like to have another Diamond in her Collection. The Chairwoman was like a little Kid at Christmas who would look at her present. She knew to keep this Shard better in the Container, as Gammu Tech had the nasty Tendency to take over any other tech that it came in contact with. After all, there are no better hackers than an AI.

Cait: I won't ask you how you got your hands on this Beauty. But I can tell that you definitely have impressed me with it.
