Greetings,
I suppose it's time for my first report, so here goes. Signore Antonio asked me to accompany him on his way to smuggle a shipment of workers and cardamine into Gallia. Our flight towards there went with no incidents. However, on the way back, we were intercepted by three Unione Corse vessels. Soon enough, the situation became really tense as they were ready to destroy our ships and move on with their lives. I realized we had little to none chance of defending ourselves, considering we were outnumbered and signore Antonio was piloting a transport. Somehow, we managed to talk them into giving us a chance not to leave in escape pods. With a little bit of luck, or however you prefer calling it, the two of us safely returned to Maltese territory.
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: How rude.
[UC]-Demolir.5: I believe the word is "hola"
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: So, how are you doing my friend?
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: Wrong
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: Buongiorno it is
[UC]-Demolir.5: Eh, what?
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: As I said, Buongiorno
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Aren't you going to answer my question, signore?
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Or is it signorina?
[UC]-Demolir.5: Signore, I think. Your words are strange
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Why is that?
[UC]-Demolir.5: I didn't answer your question because it was directed at a friend. I am not your friend
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: Ouch.
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Oh, I'm sorry if I offended you. Let's try this one more time - How are you doing, signore?
[UC]-Demolir.5: I am doing fine
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: Oh another one, buongiorno
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: Bonjour.
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: *Nods*
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: Ah si, bonjour it is...
[UC]-Demolir.5: After all, in my sights, I have eighteen million credits
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: Si?
[UC]-Mystere: *raises an eyebrow*
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Then I must be in a need of glasses, because I don't see them.
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: Indeed.
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: I don't see eighteen either.
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: More like twenty, if you ask me.
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: So who really needs glasses here?
[UC]-Demolir.5: Any reason we shouldn't go about our business and collect?
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: I don't see any reasons for that either.
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Taking it a bit too far, aren't we?
[UC]-Mystere: Reason or non, the audacity is amusing.
[UC]-Demolir.5: Far? Non, not us
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: *wonders* No, certanly not twenty.
[UC]-Demolir.5: You, perhaps, for risking your life coming here
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: What's to life if not taking risks?
[UC]-Demolir.5: A pity for your distributors if you cannot supply them
[UC]-Demolir.5: Ugh, this almost feels too easy
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: I find their lack of reasons... Satisfying.
[UC]-Demolir.5: Indeed, Luis
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Good for you.
[UC]-Demolir.5: Should we ask them for final words, mon amis?
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: I vote yes.
[UC]-Mystere: Oui, why not
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: Ah... I am sure that there is something that we could agree?
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: So, are you going to collect what you came for or what?
[UC]-Demolir.5: A strange choice for final words
[UC]-Demolir.5: If you insist, Palermo, we shall
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: I heard someone mentioning millions, no?
[UC]-Demolir.5: Fortunately, you're worth less
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: At least your ears work as they should.
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Well, can't complain about that.
[UC]-Demolir.5: How about you, Virgo? Anything more to say?
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: We have some credits to offer you.
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: "Some".
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: Define this amount.
[UC]-Demolir.5: I shall not demand
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: 25 milion to be precise.
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: Hm, let me do maths...
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: In theory, that's a worthy proposal...
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: But, well, in theory.
[UC]-Mystere: Don't forget to carry the deux, monsieur.
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: The -deux- ?
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: Consirder who you are, no offence, I'm not so keen on accepting it.
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: Not sure about my companions though.
[UC]-Demolir.5: Same, Luis, but Mystere is the one who knows money the best
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: But you must admit that 25 milion Sirius credits is not a bad sum of money.
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: Of course it isn't.
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Seems like you suddenly lost the sight of those twenty millions you were talking about, si?
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: But 18 millions and an outcast train going down in flames is, let's say, more appealing to me.
[UC]-Demolir.5: Indeed not, compared to what we might get paid. And I'd say it also covers us looking the other way in regards to the law
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: Nothing personal.
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: I think that 25 milions is better than nothing and wasting your ammo si?
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: I doubt you people are unreasonable, let's make a deal.
[UC]-Demolir.5: We're discussing your br- "offer"
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Take your time.
(@)-ET-Virgo: *prepares credits for the transfer*
[UC]-Demolir.5: Alright, I think we've come to a ... satisfactory decision
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: Si?
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Per favore, enlighten us.
[UC]-Demolir.5: Your escort will flip a coin. If heads, we accept your generous offer and drop the cardamine. If tails, we fulfill our contract
[UC]-Demolir.5: Best two out of three, or just the once?
[UC]-Demolir.5: Decide that now
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Once is enough.
[UC]-Demolir.5: Flip the coin then, monsieur
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Here goes. (@)-Luciano.Palermo tossed heads
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: Aw, come on!
[UC]-Demolir.5: Well, wasn't that fun?
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: Si...
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Can't say it wasn't.
[UC]-Mystere: Reminds me of that old D&D Hologame... One toss made the decision, though they used dice rather than coins.
[UC]-Luis.Verdun: Someone has a lucky day...
[UC]-Demolir.5: A lucky life, more alike
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: Now standby... the credits are ready
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: I don't really believe in luck, but whatever you want to call it, it's fine by me.
[UC]-Demolir.5: Don't forget to rid your cargobay of the filthy cardamine
[UC]-Demolir.5: You can make it to Malta with the amount left on your bridge, I'd bet
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: Now credits are going to?
[UC]-Demolir.5: Send them to Mystere. He'll distribute it as he sees fit
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: Credits sent.
[UC]-Mystere: Confirmed
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: May we leave now?
[UC]-Demolir.5: Cardamine destroyed. A minor victory
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Victory is still a victory, no?
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: No matter how minor it is.
[UC]-Demolir.5: Indeed
[UC]-Demolir.5: And yes, do leave
(@)-ET-Virgo: Antonio: Ciao
[UC]-Demolir.5: Don't linger around in Gallia
(@)-Luciano.Palermo: Grazie. Use your credits wisely.
[UC]-Demolir.5: Well, at least the expensive Rum on Glieze is less of a problem now ..
