Tranquility - the last transmission on the network was not a hoax. We have been boarded.

All non-combat personnel should keep to their quarters at the present moment. Further instructions will follow.

Note please that the boarders are able to hack all transmissions, including those which are highly encrypted. Do not discuss tactical information over the network. Do not discuss extraneous things. We do not know what will be of use to these brigands, and we need to deny them as much information as possible. Keep silent; keep vigilant; updates to come.

Before I respond to you: name?

[fractious]

His name's Kasey and he's not telling you anything.

[jurisimpudent]

Right. And who are you, anyway?

[fractious]

None of your business.

[jurisimpudent]

No, I think it's quite intimately my business, being as you're the one invading my ship.

[fractious]

Your captain said it wasn't. He lets you call him a liar?

[ she's assuming this works the way it does everywhere else ]

[jurisimpudent]

[uh hold up]

The...captain spoke with you?

[fractious]

[ she means nathan. ]

Yeah, he was pretty loud.

[maneuver]

Hey! I had it.

[fractious]

You talk too much.

[ says the other chatty one ]

[maneuver]

You told him my name.

[jurisimpudent]

Apt time for revenge, if you're the sort for it.

[maneuver]

[ok sure.]

Her name's Lesley.

[jurisimpudent]

Lesley? It will do, I suppose.

[fractious]

That's not my name, Kasey!

[ aaaaaaaand right back at whining. ]

[fractious]

He can't do anything with your name. And you could've said I lied.

[ the only people hayes can bully are kasey and noam and the people on the tq and dammit she's going to enjoy not being the lowest one for a while ]

[maneuver]

He might do something!

[Kasey doesn't know what but goddammit there must be something.]

[fractious]

Like say it?

[ dude no. ]

[maneuver]

That whole trading answers thing works better if you pick a question the other person actually needs you to answer. Not one they're just saying out of disbelief.

[jurisimpudent]

Kasey. And are you the one who breaks encryptions?

[maneuver]

[GDI HAYES.]

Yeah, fine. I break encryptions.

[jurisimpudent]

And what else? Presumably a band of pirates doesn't employ a hacker with no other functions full-time.

[maneuver]

Didn't say I was a hacker.

[jurisimpudent]

Encryption breaker. Whatever terminology you prefer.

[maneuver]

Terminology that doesn't have 'encryption' in it, because those things you're using don't deserve to be called that.
