[font=Palatino Linotype]And the videofeed starts up, this time to reveal Blue clad in a black business-suit and in some before-unseen surroundings. More precisely, she appears to be sitting on the command seat at the Stellar Ranger's bridge with a holo-interface in front of her and a cup of coffee in one hand.

[color=#CC99CC]Good morning my darlings.
I've been sitting here and taking my boat for a joyride while looking through all that shiny footage you've sent me.
Well, I can safely say that I am pleased. Very pleased.
Lots of good work done, lots of explosions, you made this day start out really great.

[font=Palatino Linotype][color=#CCDDCC]A sip of the steaming-hot coffee later, she continues.

[color=#CC99CC]But let's get to business and start with you, Johnny.
I especially like the footage of that gigantic coffin being set ablaze.
I also like that you didn't hesitate to swat out the small flies out of the sky.
So you're right, it does earn you a bonus.
Forty Million Credits total. Thirty-five regular, five bonus. Sound shiny?
I hope so. Feel free to send the extra 'proof' my way, budda.

Now to the next one on the list, the Blade Runner.
You do seem to quite like it when a boring day turns more explosive, don' ya?
Eitherway, solid work and fancy footage from your side.
That translates into a solid ten Million headed your way.

[font=Palatino Linotype][color=#CCDDCC]Another sip of coffee later a happy smile comes over her face.

[color=#CC99CC]And now to my darling KamiKaze.
You did quite the shiny work out there, didn't you, you lovely thing?
And you seem less greedy than before now, what with mentioning my own kill and just assisting and whatnot.
But that's all okay and fine, you get paid anyway, aye?

[color=#CCBBCC]Aye, she does mi amor.

[font=Palatino Linotype][color=#CCDDCC]Viva walks into the camera's view from behind with a little grin on her face.

[color=#CC99CC]Wha'd you think Sugarcakes, should we just make it one big bonus for her instead of the regular pay routine?

[color=#CCBBCC]Si, nothing against it.
How about eight times the number three in a row?

[color=#CC99CC]Sounds shiny, very shiny even. And what about the other part?

[color=#CCBBCC]You mean the little extra?

[color=#CC99CC]Oh yes, that one.

[color=#CCBBCC]It's still in the works mi coracon.
Might take a fair while longer until it is done.

[color=#CC99CC]Fair enough. It's going to be one big surprise afterall.

[font=Palatino Linotype][color=#CCDDCC]Both can be seen grinning at each other for a moment before Viva takes over again.

[color=#CCBBCC]Well, now to the rest of you, comrades.
First up is Mister Led.
We do appreciate your honesty and admitting that the other pilot did most of the work.
As honesty in such a greed-driven business is so rare, we've evened it up with one Million extra for you.
Just a small bonus for your honesty, comrade.

[color=#CC99CC]Who knows, there might be more coming with more work done.
But let's go on, right?

[color=#CCBBCC]Si, si.
Next up is comrade Nighten.
All of your footage was in order, and the part we like the most is the one about the Assault Carrier.
We did actually contact the Incursus' commanding officer and were pleasantly surprised.
If not for your work there the Legion would've been unable to blow the ship to shreds.

[color=#CC99CC]Your honesty in regards to Miss Anderson's doing is also appreciated, Mister Nighten.
Due to the way the gigantic coffin was taken care of and due to Miss Anderson's assistance, we feel that fifty Million Credits total would be...

[color=#CCBBCC]...the appropriate payment for all your work, si?
We've sent a share of your pay senorita Anderson's way, so that's it already without the cut.
Should be satisfying enough to make fifty Million Credits in one go.

[color=#CC99CC]It sure should be, Sugarcakes.
Though I've to admit that Mister Nighten does appear to do just as good a job as you told me he would.
More than just a pleasant surprise.

[color=#CCBBCC]Oh come on, you knew I wouldn't really bring you someone who'd do poor work, hm?

[color=#CC99CC]Sure, but it's nice to see it with my own eyes, y'know?

[font=Palatino Linotype][color=#CCDDCC]Viva grins a little bit and steals Blue's coffee cup before going on.

[color=#CCBBCC]Just as it's nice to see some other things with your own eyes, si?

[color=#CC99CC]Are you suggesting anything?

[color=#CCBBCC]Maaaybe. But even if, business first, si?

[font=Palatino Linotype][color=#CCDDCC]With a little laugh directed at Viva, Blue takes over now while letting the former sip her coffee.

[color=#CC99CC]Si si. Well, to the next one.
Uncle Runkle that would be.
Can't say much but that you did solid work there.
Regular pay sent your way.

Now that I think of it, aren't we actually done now Viva?

[color=#CCBBCC]No no, the angry one is still left.

[color=#CC99CC]Oh yeah, that one.
Well, to you, that particular angry Mercenary.
I've said it during the first transmission already, the Maryland is a Dreadnought, comprende?
I hope you're satisfied now, so do me a favor and go kill, aye?
Aye.

[color=#CCBBCC]Now we're done mi amor.

[color=#CC99CC]Does that mean now we-

[color=#CCBBCC]Nope. You still have to drive us to our new spot.

[color=#CC99CC]D'aww. Not fair.

[font=Palatino Linotype][color=#CCDDCC]And with a pouting Blue and a laughing Viva the screen fades to black.
