Well hey there.... Stranger

Remember me?

It has been a while, huh?
I guess time flys when you are having fun.

I'm assuming you wont have forgotten the good ol' days... Being underboss and all.
I'd call you a liar if you said you had.

Anyway. If you are alive and recieving this message... Contact me.
I think you will like what I have to say.

Well now...

I hope I'm still alive, cause if I'm not, then there's a whole base full of Idiots that have been answering to a ghost. And what good ol' days? I still run operations from Padua and, on occasion, head out to that rock field in Alberta and give those idiot miners what for. Heh, Good ol' days... I'm not that old, Tori.

Anyway, you've got something you'd like to discuss? Then I'm all ears, love. After all, there's not much going on currently other than some idiots I'ma have to go kick in the rear.... WOULD YOU TWO BRAINBLOWNS QUIT BEATING THE HELL OUT OF EACH OTHER?!

Oh hi there.

It is good to see you still up and kicking.
Still running things from Padua, yeah? I am impressed...
I thought that place was all but deserted after everything fell apart there.
Guess I am glad to be wrong.

So, I have this..... plan.
It will unify what little of us are left, create a formidable force again
It will take liberty back as our own.
Of course, I would want your help with this.

If you are interested, I would like to meet.
I'm thinking Fortaleza in Humboldt.
I'm sure you know where it is
Just let me know when - I'll be wating.

Good to hear back from you.

Yeah, Padua's still around, she's running on a skeleton crew, but still operational. After everything went to hell around here, I managed to keep control during the confusion. And you say you have a plan to unify us all once again? Is little Tori looking to run for Warlady or somethin'? *He laughs a bit* But in all seriousness... if you want my aid in starting up a bit of trouble, I'm all for it. Liberty turned its back on me long ago and I'll be damned if I ever let that go.

If we're to meet up, then Fortaleza is the best place, it's out of the way and pretty secure. Of course, if we were to meet here on Padua... then we could enjoy some of that rare stock Siren managed to get her hands on just before she vanished. God I miss that girl... even if she was some LSF android. Souls like hers just aren't around now days, ya know?

Anyway, give me a shout, You have my number.... oh, and I find it quite amusing the we're using the same Communications OS... cheap but effective, right? *He starts laughing once again before the video ends*

Yes, it is cheap, and it is effective....
But I will be changing this when I do have the chance
It is overdue for an update.
Unfortunately priorities state otherwise for the moment.

Fortaleza is where I will be.
Feel free to bring some drinks...
The varitey here is lacking.
The drinks were better while in hiding.

Siren.... It is a shame she is gone
We can only hope she is happy
I'd send a transmission if I knew where she was.
Might not hurt to try anyway.

Anyway, back to the matter on hand.....
I will see you soon.

Please, don't keep me waiting.
