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.

I hate to say stuff like that the first time I meet a girl, but if you really want to know I could make an exception.

[ they don't believe in open information. ]

I wouldn't have asked if I didn't want to know.

Ladies on top, ma'am.

[She should have known that aws too easy.]

You can drop the ma'am. Has that line ever gotten you anywhere?

Hey, you asked. I tried to say I didn't think it was the right time.

[ yeah, it's worked before. ]

I don't think it's going to get you far here while you're busy trying to loot everything.

I wanted to know what you do in your group of bandits, pirates, whatever you are.

Don't misunderstand me, I have this blonde at home. Jealous type-- you know how it is with the smart ones, they're demanding. I'm on the job and looking a different way for now, but I appreciate you think I'd be up for it.

-- and I knew what you wanted to know, it just doesn't mean I'm gonna tell you.

So, you're one of the grunts.

That obvious?

A little. What made you guys pick this ship?

You hailed us, we followed up. For people who send out random calls in the middle of space you don't catch authority in, much, you don't seem to be ready for shit like this.

If I had any choice in the matter, I wouldn't even be here.

You gonna try and sell me a ghost story, too?

Ghost story? No, but this is a creepy ass ship and the ones who are supposedly in charge are terrible at it.

I'm getting that sense.

How much of the 'crew' have you met?

We're trying to keep that from happening.

What, are you scared of a fight?

No, just not looking to get bloody.

I'll make it quick if we run into each other.

If we run into each other, I'll drop you. Nothing personal but let's hope we don't run into each other.

I like the confidence, but you'd be wrong. It wouldn't take much for me to take you out.

[ just a disconnect on this end; he's made his warning, now it's back to business. ]
