Now, now, Rayne.
We're not freaks, we're just dedicated to the interests of ensuring that progress is made to science, for the sake of Humanity's growth.
Unless you want to one day resort to eating rocks because the lock of botanical research during a food crisis, be my guest.
As to how we'll fix it up? Why - we service these models. The Sturgeon is a reliable piece of hardware that has served us well in the field for cargo interdiction and escort duties.
For a cheap cost of 500,000 credits, we can service it and refurbish it up to prime standard. All you have to do is visit Valravn. If you are interested, I can issue you a guest pass for servicing, as access is usually restricted to esteemed visitors and customers.

I also accept other forms including technological data and knowledge to add to our knowledgebanks. Favours do not necessarily provide material compensation for efforts in this case. Do you have anything else in mind?
Inverness is the location, correct. There is a security zone in the southern region of Inverness. We do quite like our privacy, and to not randomly get strangers in the way of tests. Quite unfortunate if someone were to get splattered.

If credits are a struggle to come by, perhaps you may have more luck with material alternatives.
Would you find yourself willing to instead ship roughly 17,500 units of Optronics to one of our laboratories, Aergia Research Station, orbiting Elgin in Inverness?
Or would this be an excessive inquiry for your tastes? Let me know what you are comfortable with doing, I can lower the amount as necessary.

Trying to trick me into paying you? Tssch. You still have a tone of a soldier, not a business-woman. Much to learn, Krenton.
Anyhow, those parts are paying for your prize to be operational.
At minimum, 15,000 units of Optronics to Aergia Research Facility. We cannot get any lower than that. I'm sure someone of your capable hands won't struggle relaxing in a Captains seat, eh?
