Crowe.

Noticed you'd actually praise your sworn adversary and show semblance of respecting rules of engagement. For someone I'd put on a scale somewhere between militia and thugs draping a fancy name over themselves, you'd surpassed my expectations. That's good, would be a damn shame if for everything I'd uncovered in naval records you'd stoop so low.

Sticking around terrible benefecators, you and your lot. Ever thought Technocracy's - them, the lifelong wild card, dragging you down in the eyes of people you and I likewise pledged to protect?

Consider to reconsider. Prometheus' would make a finer group without a stigmatising sigil. I know you catch on my meaning.

I was wondering whether or not I'd hear from you. I saw you hesitate before making that mad run on the Incursus and attempting to flee Valley Forge. Could've gotten yourself killed, idiot. Would have been a waste of talent as I said before. I probably shouldn't be glad you're okay, but here we are.

If thugs and disorganized militiamen are what you think you're dealing with, you're mistaken, although I suppose I can't fault the Republic for trying to cast us in that light. If they admitted anything resembling the Legion of old survived, it wouldn't be very good optics through the looking glass on Guadalajara, would it?

As for the Technocracy, you're even more mistaken there. An IFF is an IFF. How do you see us flying, conducting ourselves? What kit do you see us with? Sure, there's the odd Nightjar or set of Harpes here or there, but by and large it's the same gear we were running before your Republic tried to extinguish us. The Technocracy owed us a debt, and helped us up when we were down. No more or no less than our Commonwealth did for them over a decade ago.

I don't think I'm the one with much reconsideration to do, Luisa.
