Elo Cobra,

Massasauga here, there is something I wanted to ask you. One Hacker was camping at Colorado gate in New York, according to our modus operandi I left him alone but remained close in case something was about to happen, however one Legionnaire thought it was wise to join me. I didn't want to go against our modus operandi, but also I didn't want to display our "neutrality" with Hackers. I saw Hacker taking down one mercenary who wanted to take us both down so I came to decision he could take down that Legionnaire easily. I warned Hacker, told him I will stay out unless Legionnaire asks for help. Obviously legionnaire asked me for help so I used blind shot tactic, damaging Hacker just slightly. Soon Legionnaire was defeated and Hacker left, so did I.

However I sent some credits to Hacker, for damage I caused to his ship. You know, I don't wanna cause any big troubles. So I am here to ask for your advice, what to do if our -supposed- ally runs into -our- partner.

Hello there.

I'm glad you aren't afraid to reach out directly when you feel the need for clarification. As much I appreciate pilots taking initiative, I appreciate it more when I'm sought out for guidance - especially when one feels uncertain. Moving on, I think you handled the situation you were in perfectly. You didn't seem overly friendly with the Hacker nor did you put our fragile arrangements with them at risk by being overly helpful. You toed a line that I expect most people in Serpentis to be too aggressive or reckless to even notice. And that much deserves commendation.

Additionally, I appreciate that you compensated the Hacker for the dents you might have inflicted. Tell me the amount you sent him and I'll have it reimbursed from our reserves. The bartender on Ouray has been instructed to serve you a drink of your choice free of charge, it's on me.

""Contact me if there's anything else""

Elo Cobra,

Massasauga here. I will gladly decline your offer of compensation for my own credits. It was a low amount credits, your word serves as reward for me.

I am glad this situation got clarified and I will try to stay on this path until further notice from you.

Thanks for the drink anyway, it is quite handy to wash off some stress and adrenaline. Thanks again!
