Transmission to Gabriel Angelos, Captain of the Tau.Ceti.Central

[Garrick]

Greetings Mr. Angelos,
Unfortunately it has been some time since our last communication. My ship has had some extensive repairs that have taken few weeks, and then when it was repaired we seemed to have some issues with the neural net.

When we last spoke you showed some interest in some wine I'€™ve been able to obtain. I would like to inform you that if you still desire it, I can obtain some for you. I completed my previous obligations and am once again available to provide services. If you'€™re still interested in this, please respond back to me and I'€™ll ship it to your destination.

Sorry for the delay once again. Times are tough and violent activities seem to be on the rise, especially in Gallia and the Tau'€™s that I'€™ve been doing business in. Captain Tomorren Garrick of the LucrativeTransport.Inc. out.

*when your message is received, Gaby is deep sleeping due to huge hangover. An old man appears on Gaby cabin, attracted by the bells sound indicating an incoming message*

*Saaz : * Oh Cap'tain. Incoming transmission.
*Gaby while sleeping : * Ah! Crabs! Crabs everywhere! I have to run!
*Saaz shakes lightly Gaby :* Come on cap'tain it could be important!
*Gaby while sleeping : * Leave me alone damnit!
*Saaz sighs : * Hopeless. Let's see what this message is about then.

*Saaz opens the communication. As he reads it, he makes his angry face* Oh no. Eris no!
*whispering :* As if we needed that. I need to destroy this message, if the cap'tain gets it, he won't wake up for two weeks after the transaction. Is this guy crazy to offer Gallic wine?!

*Saaz suddenly realizes a presence is behind his shoulders*
*Gaby : * Gallic wine you said?!
*Saaz tries to turn off the screen* Nonono i said nothing.
*Gaby : * Oh an incoming message let's see that.
*Saaz sighs*

*As Gaby reads the message, he makes his cool face*
*Laughs* Party!
*Gaby dances alone on his cabin*

Oh let's answer this captain anyway....

Kallisti Mr. Garrick! I'm glad to see you didn't forget me!
I'm still interested by any Gallic wine shipment you would be able to do.

Ya see... I have a grave disease that requires Gallic wine every day to be cured *Gaby smiles*
*Saaz whispers : * Ye... your deepness stupidity...

Uh, What you said Saaz?
Anyway Mr. Garrick, the TC² is currently... Hmm... Where are we Saaz actually?
*Saaz :* Around Ames captain... *Saaz sighs*

Oh right. Forgot 'dat for a small moment *chuckles*

About the price for your services, i'm sure we will find a good agreement.
*Saaz whispers : * Ya, we will again spend millions for stupids wine bottles. *Saaz mumbles*

Shut up Saaz! Get out of my cabin anyway!
*Saaz moves slowly out of the cabin, totally discouraged*

So w'at i was sayin' uh? Oh i guess it wasn't important *Gaby makes is cool face*

I hope to receive good news from you soon!

All hail Discordia!

Greetings to you and your crew,
It is great to reestablish communications with you once again. We couldn'€™t forget such a charismatic individual as yourself. *laughs* We also hate to put an offer on the table, just to withdraw it. That is not our way of doing business, we like to live up to our end of a deal.

We will work our way to Ames Research Station in the Kepler system as you have instructed. We might hire an escort to operate with us through Liberty space, otherwise we should be alone. There tends to be a lot of individuals through those systems that would want a piece of our cargo as well. Our junker friend that gets it for us has provided us with a full cargo hold once again. It'€™s the real deal, top quality vintage goods, right from the winery'€™s on planet Nevers. *laughs*

As far as payment being worked out, I am looking for about 750 units of Iridium that is for another job of ours. If possible if you could grab some of that stuff, I'€™m not sure what it'€™s worth, but we'€™d trade 1000 crates for it even up. If you want the rest of the crates we could work that out when we meet up. If you can'€™t obtain the Iridium, no worries, we'€™ll still work something out. *laughs*

We usually operate pretty late or early depending on how you look at it, generally -5 GMT so we should be in the area around 03:00 if not sooner.
This is Capt. Garrick signing off.

Kallisti sir Garrick!
I send this communication to inform you i'm at the moment docked at Ames.

I succeeded to find the Iridium you requested, as you can see :

The TC² will stay at Ames until our transaction is finished. I can't wait to try your wine! *Gaby makes his cool face*

The ale at ames bar is so awfull... *He makes a disgusted face*

I hope to see you soon around.
Hail Eris!
