The recorder pops on the sound of the news playing in the background.
The tablet being handled.
"Stupid, back..."grunting..
The meeting with Doc went well. Hes going to assist the building of the Corvo Medical Cruiser. The plans for the Slave rehabilitation labs were barely glanced. Some folks.. might think its a doll processor.... Last thing I suppose TAZ would need is bad press.
Haven't gotten any mail from the Stepsons... I'm sure... My cousin is due out of Newgate soon... and hes going to want his ship out of lockup. its a Pilgrim... I HATE... pilgrims..
Their a gang of smugglers and slavers... their the ones I went to for money when I needed it... The problem here...is there no forgetting or being forgotten. Cousins a boss but I have no idea how many bosses or members they got... its a good reason to not speak ill of certain people... certain practices on certain bases and certain company...
I understand that sounded nebulous. They are deliberate as...Geology... in their business.. And to be honest when I asked my cousin if the stepsons would care... he wasn't sure...
I have to admit if I woke up someones step ford wife or sex toy from their brainwashed torpor... Id have more to fear from them then the guild or whoever they bought them from. But the trade will always flow..this...I am sure... monsters will never settle for bot's or A.I.'s..They crave flesh..
But whats important is my diagnosis.. Surgery... and depending on how fast I recover and heal it could be as long as six months.
My reading... is a pile of 20 books... One on Eris... a few I haven't finished yet.. Some other subjects mostly things keeping me up to date on therapy's.
Itll be the first chew toy on not going insane from having nothing to do but...recover...
Another uncomfortable news is.. I am somewhat paranoid that while im out of contact someone gets the stupid idea in the congress that im squealing to the cops about all the dirty work... In that case.. I dont expect to survive the surgery...
I know enough to.. say get a few folks in trouble in.. any law abiding house....but the congress isn't a crime syndicate.. it isn't supposed to be. And I think thats what got us in so much trouble...
When I approached them I asked the question.. Mr.Trenton whats the smuggling situation?
He said to me that its a personal choice and never get caught or its "over". That was.. almost a year ago.
Congress is vary loyal to its members.. And I think us being "soft" on the ones that get caught is what called down so much hell.
Ive never been caught on my "personal" orders... I never run the risks of damaging my reputation of myself or my fellows and quite frankly I find it hard to harbor ill will to other congressmen who did get tagged by those bounty's.
I just know my back aches every time I see a bomber get near me on the express like a reminder of the last forced explosion.
But I know that... If people dont start making tough calls and make problems disappear... for all our sakes... Well... Not to sound like a snob but respectable business will find a new face.
Junkers aren't pirates.. we aren't afforded their freedom to do whatever.. kill whoever..ally with whoever we want in the moment.
I can count on one hand who gets the full weight of this and that is a high estimate... Im convinced most of those are just two stepping to orders just because they are ordered to fit orders.
Few.. get the philosophy of junkers the freedom of our existence and what it affords. Ill even wager few of us are..junkers enough to.. if all of us where culled to a handful right now? ... Junkers would turn into another pirate clan.
*sighing*
hate talking about political crap.. it kills friends and friendships.. ... Surgery's soon.. i gotta relax.
