I am relaying this message off of Java's transmitters from deep near Liberte at the moment. It seems we may or may not have some small measure of annoyance down here. I shall explain!
Hauling a hold full of our lovely Blue Diamonds down to Liberte, I was accosted by a "Liberte Rogue" in the New York system. Having downed the lane before me, I had little choice to listen the drunken pilot and engage in one of the most inane robberies I've ever suffered through in my life! Here are my transcripts so that you can emphathize with my plight, and perhaps learn what manner of fool we'll be dealing with down here.
Code:
[07.08.2014 05:30:48] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Bonsoir!
[07.08.2014 05:32:30] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Hello!!"
[07.08.2014 05:32:34] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Salut!
[07.08.2014 05:32:45] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Uh, I think the lane is down.
[07.08.2014 05:32:54] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "You are right"
[07.08.2014 05:33:08] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: And you seem to have done it.
[07.08.2014 05:33:14] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I assume you want something?
[07.08.2014 05:33:16] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "I think you have to go with me now..."
[07.08.2014 05:33:35] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Oui? How and where is that?
[07.08.2014 05:33:59] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Eta-two location... I need to talk to you there"
[07.08.2014 05:34:21] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: *raises an eyebrow*
[07.08.2014 05:34:38] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Fly there,,, I don't want to hurt you, hunny"
[07.08.2014 05:34:41] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I kind of like this location myself. Will this not do?
[07.08.2014 05:34:52] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "No... Fly there"
[07.08.2014 05:35:10] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: And what guarantee do I have all we'll do is "talk", hmm?
[07.08.2014 05:35:21] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "My word? Word of woman?"
[07.08.2014 05:35:35] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: *barely holds in a laugh*
[07.08.2014 05:35:45] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Uh, well, wait. You're a woman?
[07.08.2014 05:36:00] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Haven't you found out?"
[07.08.2014 05:36:12] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: *shrugs in confusion*
[07.08.2014 05:36:27] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I don't even know who you are. And you seem to be masking your voice some.
[07.08.2014 05:36:48] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: You could be a mutant lizard with a shell for all I know.
[07.08.2014 05:36:49] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "You don't need to know my name... Proceed to Eta-two location now"
[07.08.2014 05:36:56] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: *sighs*
[07.08.2014 05:37:01] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Or can I use my fireworks?"
[07.08.2014 05:37:10] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Alright, but if you start shooting, I'll be sure to remember you're not a woman.
[07.08.2014 05:37:20] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Of course!
[07.08.2014 05:38:21] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Alright, stop!"
[07.08.2014 05:38:31] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Now we can 'talk'"
[07.08.2014 05:38:38] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Uh-huh.
[07.08.2014 05:39:02] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Tell me something about your Tau activity, hunny"
[07.08.2014 05:39:15] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Well, I dance.
[07.08.2014 05:39:28] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Mostly in small ships, but sometimes in bigger ones.
[07.08.2014 05:39:38] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I rather like looking at the stars.
[07.08.2014 05:39:39] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Salsa?"
[07.08.2014 05:39:50] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: And I dislike all the large rocks out there.
[07.08.2014 05:40:11] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: What is "Salsa"?
[07.08.2014 05:40:17] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Quite nice... And now to my problem with your weird group"
[07.08.2014 05:40:38] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "You are quite interrupting our convoys there"
[07.08.2014 05:40:46] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "And Salsa is dance, hunny"
[07.08.2014 05:40:52] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Oh! And I like looking at the various Sirian ships that pass by. Some have quite the interesting design to them.
[07.08.2014 05:41:05] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Quite what?
[07.08.2014 05:41:39] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Your Corseir or whatever is your name..."
[07.08.2014 05:41:41] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I just look at ships.
[07.08.2014 05:41:56] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: And fly my own to and from out there.
[07.08.2014 05:41:58] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Are interrupting our convoys... Asking them for money..."
[07.08.2014 05:42:13] LR-Leopard: ?:Bad thing
[07.08.2014 05:42:15] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Are you sure you have the right person?
[07.08.2014 05:42:17] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "And you know... I as Rogue don't like being pirated by some scum"
[07.08.2014 05:42:26] LR-Leopard: ?: We don't like that here
[07.08.2014 05:42:36] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: You'll forgive me, but I've only seen a few of you the few times I've been here.
[07.08.2014 05:42:43] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: And I'm positive I've never met you before.
[07.08.2014 05:42:57] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: And I'm quite sure that I have no clue about what you care for.
[07.08.2014 05:43:10] LR-Leopard: ?: You are wrong, We are getting reports of you people pirating Rogues
[07.08.2014 05:43:20] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: So I do wish you'd stop assuming I know anything about your Sirian politics down this way.
[07.08.2014 05:43:27] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Let me handle that, Leopard"
[07.08.2014 05:43:31] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: *shrugs*
[07.08.2014 05:43:40] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Doesn't ring a bell.
[07.08.2014 05:43:58] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Listen... I don't care if you know something about us"
[07.08.2014 05:44:11] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "I care about your group shooting our people"
[07.08.2014 05:44:23] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: But you just said, and I quote--
[07.08.2014 05:44:36] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: "I as a Rogue don't like being pirated by some scum".
[07.08.2014 05:44:56] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: So doesn't that mean you assume I know something about you?
[07.08.2014 05:44:59] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "And? You are scum... Pirating us in your turf..."
[07.08.2014 05:45:12] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "However now you are scum in -our- turf"
[07.08.2014 05:45:14] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I'm quite sure I have no idea what you're on about.
[07.08.2014 05:45:41] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "But I know... And that's important"
[07.08.2014 05:45:44] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I do recall one of our Membres laughing about a communique from down this way.
[07.08.2014 05:45:54] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Did you send us a message, perhaps?
[07.08.2014 05:46:19] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Why should we? I'm sure we sent"
[07.08.2014 05:46:35] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Shortly your group is causing some troubles to us"
[07.08.2014 05:46:53] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Are you drunk perhaps? I think you're rambling right now.
[07.08.2014 05:47:14] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I can assure you, if you sent us a message, we will have responded.
[07.08.2014 05:47:30] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Who cares... SO what to do with you now"
[07.08.2014 05:47:39] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Wait, wait, wait.
[07.08.2014 05:47:52] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: So if you -did- send a message, you don't actually care if you got a response?
[07.08.2014 05:48:28] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "We care... Maybe as grandma cares about young boys"
[07.08.2014 05:48:38] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I-- I don't even.
[07.08.2014 05:48:46] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: What is that supposed to -mean-? Huh?
[07.08.2014 05:48:48] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Shortly we will solve that by this way..."
[07.08.2014 05:49:13] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "You will pay us 5 milion credits now and give us 30 blue diamonds, ya?"
[07.08.2014 05:49:30] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: To you?
[07.08.2014 05:49:44] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "No... To my granny of course..."
[07.08.2014 05:49:50] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Of course to me"
[07.08.2014 05:49:56] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Well, you did say you care like grandmas.
[07.08.2014 05:50:10] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Would I be able to talk you down to three million and 75 diamonds?
[07.08.2014 05:50:12] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "As... AS!!"
[07.08.2014 05:50:28] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Okay... 5 milion and 75 diamonds"
[07.08.2014 05:50:37] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: No no, down, not up.
[07.08.2014 05:50:48] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Diamonds go up, credits go down.
[07.08.2014 05:50:52] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Oui?
[07.08.2014 05:50:58] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "More you try to negotiate..."
[07.08.2014 05:51:04] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "More we will get"
[07.08.2014 05:51:15] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "And don't try that pigglet language"
[07.08.2014 05:51:29] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "You are in Liberty... Not Piggletland"
[07.08.2014 05:51:35] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: So, before I hand anything over, do you even care to try and work with us at all?
[07.08.2014 05:51:54] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I have reference to a communique your group sent. We did reply, as I said.
[07.08.2014 05:52:01] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "If you have anything in mind... You will send it in Transmission, hunny"
[07.08.2014 05:52:08] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: *sighs*
[07.08.2014 05:52:19] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: We already did. Perhaps if you were less drunk you'd check your mail?
[07.08.2014 05:52:41] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Maybe... However you are still in our turf... So money and diamonds please"
[07.08.2014 05:52:49] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "5 milion credits and 75 diamonds"
[07.08.2014 05:52:58] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Right. Five million and seventy-five diamonds.
[07.08.2014 05:53:38] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Very nice... And kind of you dear"
[07.08.2014 05:53:48] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: So you say.
[07.08.2014 05:53:56] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Bye bye then?"
[07.08.2014 05:54:05] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Uh, is that a yes?
[07.08.2014 05:54:21] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Yes to what?!"
[07.08.2014 05:54:29] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Never mind.
[07.08.2014 05:54:43] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Ten seconds and I will launch some torpedoes... Run!!"
[07.08.2014 05:55:45] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Tell your leaders that I love them!!!" *sends kiss*
[07.08.2014 05:55:57] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Tell your leaders to read their mail.
[07.08.2014 05:56:09] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Don't worry, hunny!"
[07.08.2014 05:56:20] Joe.Prager: People read mail these days?!
[07.08.2014 05:56:38] Heavenly.Stairway: Mail eh
[07.08.2014 05:56:43] Heavenly.Stairway: Not Gallic Mail
[07.08.2014 05:57:01] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Silly human using Pigglet language... You know... Piggletland!! Oui? and Oui, oui! Oui?" *she laughs*
You understand now what I went through just to keep from offing myself! I am aware that Membre Poitoux is looking to deal with these "Rogues", but I will gladly keep "taxing" their efforts to supply the Maltese until that gets figured out. I hope it's soon; I don't think I could mentally suffer such an indignity again.
