H- hey. So basically, here's what I can do. Y- you guessed right - I'm an int- tel person. Not the norm- mal infiltration st- stuff, though, normally. I'm m- more a... sc- scout-type intel pers- son. Sneak- king up to enem- mies (or j- just flying by th- them crazily) and listening int- to conversations, scanning st- stuff, getting inc- criminating evidence, calling in t- target coordinates and pinning th- them down for the big g- guns... that sort of thing.
That's not all I d- do, of course, but it's a big p- part of it. Like I said bef- fore, I can d- do some shooting on th- the side. I can get stuff th- that's kinda hard to g- get, too, 'long as it's n- not that drug and isn't g- gonna be used ag- gainst Bretonia or the GC or the D- Dragons or anyo- one I care about or anyth- thing. If y- you need a place for s- someone to hide, that's wh- what I'm best at - mak- king people hard to f- find. Not much c- call for th- that, though, and onl- ly works when they d- do like I say and d- don't go running around b- blabbering about wh- who they are. I'm a p- pretty good escort sc- scout, too. Only ev- ver lost one transp- port, and that was wh- while I was the l- lone escort and bus- sy distracting two b- bombers at once and c- couldn't go back t- to the conv- voy without risk- king them even further.
Lots of oth- ther stuff I can do too; I'm p- pretty variab- ble. Long as it's n- nothing bad and doesn't h- hurt anyone I c- care about, I can d- do it.
My b- basic int- tel contract - which most p- people hiring m- me take out, s- since it's pretty ch- cheap - involves me sc- scanning ships you w- want me to (other th- than like Bretonians and a- all, and peop- ple I like) and passing you the f- files. While I obv- viously can't tell you most of m- my big successes in th- that, the least conf- fidential is that t- time I got th- the Satsuma, just a c- couple months ago. Since y- you weren't subsc- cribed at the t- time, you'd h- have to buy that separately if y- you wanted it, b- but it's a good, low-level examp- ple of the kind of th- things I've uncov- vered. Price on th- the contract varies, depend- ding on what you want m- me to do and my situat- tion at the time, but it's n- normally just up-to-d- date maintenance and upg- grades and st- stuff on other st- stuff I get from y- you.
I g- generally leave a lot of st- stuff up to the client's disc- cretion, inc- cluding rewards. However, I'll g- give suggestions or make requests f- from time to time when I n- need something in partic- cular, and if I d- don't think you're paying me en- nough for the amount of w- work and important st- stuff I've gotten d- done for you, you'll lose the cont- tract.
Anyw- ways, that's the bas- sic spiel. Lemme know, mmkay?

Hmm, contacted me faster than I thought.
Well Yoko, I'll get straight to the point. You seem to be useful, very useful, but I have a few questions. It seems that you pretty much leave the price up to the client. Will you be doing the information gathering passively as in hunting for useful data whenever you can, or when I specifically ask you for a particular bit of info ? And it seems you have some database of useful intelligence, I'm guessing you sell the information from that mix ?
Of course, needless to say, the contract will between us will be confidential, I don't even want other Colonials knowing about this.
Looking forward to work together.

You c- can ask me ab- bout specif- fic bits of inform- mation, and th- that'll tell me what to keep an eye o- out for, but I c- can't make any promises about that sp- speeding it up terrib- bly much, depend- ding on what you're looking f- for. Like I said, I'm not r- really an inf- filtrator or investig- gator so much as a scout. I g- get what I see and hear, and I'm not great at d- digging for more.
I d- do, in fact, have a datab- base of information. It's pretty ext- tensive. Full ac- ccess is expensive, but I c- can sell you bits and p- pieces for l- less.
Keeping the contract ent- tirely secret f- from the rest of the Colonials? That'll c- cost you a lot m- more. I l- like people knowing b- better than to shoot me. It als- so'd make the whole "calling in strikes" k- kinda harder. I c- can do it if you want, but if I m- may, I'd suggest it'd be b- better if you only k- kept parts of it sec- cret, and left parts (like the sh- shooting and target calling and st- stuff) public. That's j- just a suggestion, th- though; if you wanna keep it all sec- cret, up t- to and including my knowl- ledge of your existance, that's fine by m- me. It'll just c- cost you a little more 'cause of th- the inconvenience on my part.

Miss Yoko,
Hmm, alright, well then, I'd like to ask you to simply keep your eyes open regarding anything important that concerns the outcasts, or the Gallic Royal Navy and perhaps even the Gallic Royal Police. Such as times of meetings in space, or deals done between the target and whoever they might be doing a deal with. Then I'll simply buy the information off you.
And you understood me wrong, I said the contract itself would be between you and I, no one will know it is me who hired you. The active information on targets can be of course relayed to any Colonial ship available.
I'm guessing we've cleared much of it up, si ? Do you have any other questions?

Miss Yoko,
Almost forgot, I'd also like to add the Kusari Naval Forces to that list, just keep an eye out for useful bits and pieces of info.
I'd also like to add that these are the passive services I would like you to be doing, the active ones will be with Colonial forces in space, and and for those information packages, we'll meet in space for that.
