For Admiral David Hale, "Once Again". - Bazza - 05-05-2010

[Image: evaheader.jpg]

[font=Century Gothic]Regarding our little conversation the other day, before I accidentally bumped the neural-net cut-off switch. I happen to be in control of one of those giant space dongs you call a siege cruiser.

I explained a little bit about how this came to be in person. To refresh your memory, I took advantage of the crew's lack of female contact and hunger for strong liquor. With both needs satisfied the men were easily acquiescent to my original intentions.

With the keys and passwords for the ship in my possession I rounded up my girls and set about taking control of the ship. The "security" on board Ames Research Station is as easy to turn to my side as the commander of your cruiser... what was his name? Jenkin.... Shire? Shan? Shin? Or something like that.

I wager the original crew will not return to claim their ship. You and I both know the competency level of the average reserve fleetist - they are most likely too embarrassed to show themselves and have probably abandoned their posts for good.

The LNS-For.Her.Pleasure is currently sitting outside my window at Rochester Base. She will shortly be taken away for a little.... "tender loving care". And of course to tinker with that utterly orgasmic coaxial cannon. The vibrations through the captain's seat when that thing fires are simply delectable. I can also understand why there are so many of these things in service. I don't even have one to compensate for but damn does it feel good jamming this cruiser down the throat of those who oppose me.

I'd be happy to organise a private rendezvous with you, Admiral, and we can come to an agreement for the future of this ship. But do bear in mind I don't plan on giving her back - nor would you want her back after we've had our way with her.

Please send your reply to:

As we say back in Bretonia, "Ooroo!"

[font=Century Gothic]How rude.

Nice of you to completely ignore me, Hale. You lost your chance.

How about you, Robinson? Wanna go on a little date with the LNS For Her Pleasure?

If you agree to let me take you out, I might just even consider giving the ship back. But you'll have to make me want to; and I think you know how. We're both women, after all.

I found this what I think is one of your ceremonial dress uniforms in one of the rooms of the "former" crew members. It actually fits my figure, which means it must have belonged to a bloke. Don't I wear it so well? Maybe I should have joined the Navy instead. Again, I'm open to convincing, Commodore Robinson.

The LNS For Her Pleasure, formerly known as the LNS Leyte Gulf, is currently under escort of some good friends of mine in the Liberty Rogues. Just thought you'd like to know.

Fleet Admiral Hale has been indisposed for the last two days. Don't be impatient, he is a very busy man.

[font=Century Gothic]Well, Hale, it seems we have a little problem.

I want to make this clear before I go any further I dont hold any of what Im going to tell against you. We both know how... bothersome the reserve fleet can be.

I have been chased out of Liberty by two of your own reserve fleet capital craft the LNR Aspen Heights and the LNS Successor. I had been idling in open space near Fort Bush at the time. I did attempt to explain to them the situation; however, they either never got the memo or just didnt care.

[Image: pic2.jpg]

Rather than open fire on the two naval ships and risk causing your fine self a significant amount of trouble, I simply ran. I ran right into the welcoming embrace of the Liberty Rogues.

As I mentioned previously, I dont blame you for what happened. With that said, if you want the ship back in Libertys hands now it will have to be on my terms; not your own. Shes currently getting to know her stable mates the Maelstrom and Alsatia in a far away location.

From here on out I will simply destroy any naval ships that attempt to harness me. So do try to keep the reserve fleet at arms' length. I will talk to you and you alone that is if you wish for a peaceful end to this little headache I made for you.

Tah.

Evening Miss McDo- Eva.

Seems the memo regarding "leave that ship alone" hasn't filtered through the rather thick skulls of various people. I hope that hasn't affected anything we talked about. Their lack of intelligence isn't really my problem. I've yelled at the captain of the Aspen Heights about this, although I've not had a chance to talk with the commander of the Successor.

Simply put Eva, I can't let this one go. So... *Hale sighs* ... What will it require for me to get this ship back on side, preferably with you on board it? Naturally there are limits, but I can't expect you to do as I ask simply on some concept of honor or whatever you want to call it...


Anyway. Take your time Eva. Try and keep your head down if you can. It's best not to flash that thing around too much, as we all know about how secondary fleet captains think of their job. It's like a pack of extremely stupid seaguls.


Hale out.

I've always seen you as a reasonable and level headed person, Admiral, so I'll hear out anything you have to say - which is something I don't often do for Liberty Navy people.

I have no intention of completely disappearing with this cruiser, you can rest assured. I do plan on inducting her into the rest of my fleet and poking around a bit, as I have been already. I have no logical reason for doing so, but as we talked about on our little "date" she's grown on me quite a bit and it'd pain me to see her sent off to another uncaring commander such as Shiv. I'm sure you'd agree that I, at least, will give this ship the respect she deserves.

My proposal is as follows: An armistice is declared covering all ships within the McDowell Company Fleet. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Maelstrom; Liberty Rogue "Scylla" Destroyer.
  • Alsatia; Liberty Rogue Transport.
  • Mnemosyne, Pilgrim Deep Exploration Vessel.
  • (Un-named); Junker Salvage Frigate.
  • Any and all fighter/bomber craft piloted by myself or one of my employees.
  • And of course, the LNS For Her Pleasure.

The details of the armistice are as such:

I understand that I can't have *everything* my way, so I'm prepared to make some compromises for the sake of agreeable terms. They are as follows:

  • I agree to an advisor from the Liberty Navy being installed into the crew of the ship for the purposes of assisting in daily operations. They will not have any bearing over the deployment or activities of the vessel.
  • The ship will, from this point on, bear official Liberty Navy IFF systems, however it will possess a unique Identifier in order to allow me access to the rest of my business contacts.
  • The ship will not be used for illegal purposes within Liberty space.
  • The whereabouts of the vessel will be released to David Hale and selected authorised high-command officers as required.
  • The ship may, at any time, be called into service to defend against a hostile invasion. Outcast, Corsair, Order and Rheinland capital craft (Cruiser and larger) will be engaged.

Liberty Forces agree to the following terms:

  • All ships listed as being part of the M.C.F, as well as any future acquisitions, shall be excluded from any and all applicable "prohibited technology" and "capital craft exclusion" laws.
  • No ship may be attacked at any time by Liberty Police, Liberty Security Force or Liberty Navy vessels except in self-defence.
  • M.C.F Ships may be scanned for illegal cargo and asked to surrender any prohibited goods as per applicable law. Upon refusal the pilot may be detained but the ship cannot be destroyed under any circumstances.
  • M.C.F Ships may be requested to surrender allied pilots; but may not be ordered or otherwise threatened to do so.
  • "Primary" Fleet Officers may not intervene in the event of a battle breaking out between M.C.F property and "Secondary or Reserve" fleet members except in self-defence. M.C.F ships in such cases will stand down upon request only when the opposing force does the same.
  • Illegal activities enacted by the M.C.F outside of Liberty space which do not hinder or affect any Liberty interest shall not be pursued.
  • The M.C.F shall be given access to Norfolk Shipyard, pending permission prior to arrival, for the service and repair of the LNS For Her Pleasure.
  • The LNS For Her Pleasure will answer only to Admiral Hale, Commodore Robinson and selected authorised officers as amended.
  • The LNS For Her Pleasure will not be asked to engage Liberty Rogue or Lane Hacker forces at any time under any circumstances. Outcast, Corsair and Order capitals will only be engaged on a case-by-case basis. Fighters and bombers will not be engaged.
  • Any and all information stored within the vessel's data banks, as well as personal knowledge obtained by the M.C.F will not be disclosed to any lawful assembly.

    • I'm sorry it reads like a business contract, but I want everything set out perfectly clear before any actions are taken. A written copy of this same contract will be in your neural net in-box shortly.

    The ship will, from here on, not enter the vicinity of any Liberty Rogue base, on request of "someone" "somewhere" whom has the power to request such a thing.

    If you do not agree to, or wish to alter any of the terms, just give me a yell. As I said, I consider you a reasonable person so I will apply logical thought on anything you suggest.

    Evening Eva.

    I've just discussed this with Commodore Robinson and Vice Admiral Anderson, and I have a few amendments to suggest...

    I'll keep this informal for now though, and draw up a slightly more complete draft of this when we've come to some agreement. I'd like to install two of my more trusted officers on board.

    First, Commander Jasmine Greenson. She's experienced in the day to day running of a Siege Cruiser and is currently serving on the Dreadnaught Durango. She's a good officer and a personal friend of mine as well. I think you'll get on well with her.

    Second, Lieutenant Sarah Gretchen. She's served on both the Cape Horn (my gunboat) and the Integrity. She's regarded as one of the Navy's foremost foward gun specialists, and another person who has the right kind of attitude for the situation. You'll have to excuse her accent though. She's from Houston.

    You understand of course I'm placing the lives of two officers in your care by doing this. One of them is a good friend of mine. I hope you won't put them in a situation I would not. That would include spending time on Rogue bases, which for two Liberty Navy officers would be almost certain death... Or worse.

    As to the exceptions to the law you would require, your ships will be exempt from the 'disallowed ships' section of Liberty Law. Of course, I will need to have full details of the class of those ships... And a little summary of their activities. If you happen to come into possession of something else which would be on that list, I would need to know before it starts to spend time in Liberty.

    I'd suggest that only the For Her Pleasure is granted full docking rights on Norfolk Shipard, as seeing a Junker owned Scylla moored up with a naval installation would raise more than a few eyebrows, not to mention the heavy drain on our docking facilities and repair yards, which are fairly busy at the moment due to the war.

    I'll be discussing with some high command members about having you added to the pay sheet as a Secondary fleet captain, if this deal goes through without a hitch. If the ship is essentially going to be of assistance defensively, then there's no harm in doing that.

    It seems to be a reasonable proposal for the most part. I hope you can understand why I'm asking for these amendments to be made.


    Hale out.

    Overall I like the jist of what's been said, I simply have a few notes to make.

    I'd like to meet your two girls in person before they become "mine" officially. Whenever suits everyone the best, I'd like everyone in my crew to know the people who will be joining them before the fact.

    As for the Rogues. A certain very close female friend of mine within the Rogue hierarchy whom I have shared some rather... intimate... moments with recommended I keep the LNS For Her Pleasure away from Rogue bases and haunts for various reasons. I intend on adhering to her suggestions.

    Regarding Norfolk, what you stated was my original intention from the start, I simply fumbled with explaining what I wanted properly. There is no need for anything barring the ship in question to go there - I generally service my own equipment, however this cruiser has technology on it which is beyond my ability.

    Full details of each of my ships are as follows:

    Alsatia
    Pirate Transport
    Junkers IFF / Freelancer ID

    This is my home and the main transport. She has been under my control since about halfway through 817A.S and is a part of my family. Often used to transport my main money makers, steel and alloys.

    Maelstrom
    Liberty Rogue "Scylla" Destroyer
    Junkers IFF / Special OP ID

    Yes, *that* Maelstrom. I don't think any further detail is required here.

    Mnemosyne
    Pilgrim Deep Exploration Liner
    Junkers IFF / Junkers ID

    The newest addition to the fleet, a massive bulk-transport used for moving vast quantities of steel and steel products

    Eva.McDowell.Salvage.
    Junker Salvage Frigate
    Junkers IFF / Junkers ID

    Used for harvesting scrap from the Texas dark matter clouds.

    You have my assurance your girls won't come to any physical harm... but don't expect their virtue to remain intact. I have a nasty habit of turning otherwise normal girls into naughty little playthings.
