I found something weird at the Kyushu trade lane. Some weird LWB ship passed by and started talking to me. First she randomly gave me two KNF pilots and then she told me she wanted to join us.
I already had my finger on the trigger and before you say "Bad Misaki". It is not every day, random Rheinlanders talk about joining us. She then called us junkies. We aren't Junkers right? However that would explain the absense of Junkers in Kusari and why the Junkers like to do business with us. Does this mean the GC are actually Kusari's Junkers? Then why don't we have their ships? What happened Hanako? Why did no one tell me?
Also she said she was not interested in our politics. then why does she want to join us? She can join the Junkers of Rheinland instead! Can you please handle this for me?
[22.10.2019 21:57:25] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Seems like I just missed you
[22.10.2019 21:57:39] Helena_Baruss: hey, you
[22.10.2019 21:57:53] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Yes Me
[22.10.2019 21:58:07] Helena_Baruss: aren't you one of the Golden... Flower-thingy
[22.10.2019 21:58:16] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: I am Misaki
[22.10.2019 21:58:31] Helena_Baruss: I take that as a "yes"
[22.10.2019 21:58:43] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: What is a Rheinlander doing here?
[22.10.2019 21:58:56] Helena_Baruss: I was looking for your kind
[22.10.2019 21:59:03] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: my kind?
[22.10.2019 21:59:20] Helena_Baruss: yup, that's for you
[22.10.2019 21:59:27] Helena_Baruss: i figured out you would like it
[22.10.2019 21:59:31] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Prisoners.
[22.10.2019 21:59:36] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: That works
[22.10.2019 21:59:57] Helena_Baruss: I wanna be in
[22.10.2019 22:00:05] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: But why should I not shoot... eh nani?
[22.10.2019 22:00:30] Helena_Baruss: I want to join your man's butt-kicking routine
[22.10.2019 22:00:48] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Why would you care about what happens in Kusari?
[22.10.2019 22:01:00] Helena_Baruss: who said I care ?
[22.10.2019 22:01:06] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: We GC do
[22.10.2019 22:01:18] Helena_Baruss: yeah, indeed you should
[22.10.2019 22:01:31] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: The Matriarch will be its future ruler after all
[22.10.2019 22:02:07] Helena_Baruss: yeah and i wish you succes and all with your... project
[22.10.2019 22:02:16] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: *opens a bottle of sake*
[22.10.2019 22:02:24] Helena_Baruss: I'm not too much into politics
[22.10.2019 22:02:27] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: And you want in, why?
[22.10.2019 22:02:40] Helena_Baruss: but I'm into butt-kicking
[22.10.2019 22:03:05] Helena_Baruss: maybe you don't know what it is but i was from the LWB
[22.10.2019 22:03:12] Helena_Baruss: when it was still a thing
[22.10.2019 22:03:34] Helena_Baruss: not by conviction... as i said i'm not much into politics
[22.10.2019 22:03:39] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: LWB... erm no..
[22.10.2019 22:03:53] Helena_Baruss: it's not really important
[22.10.2019 22:03:58] Helena_Baruss: but it doesn't exist anymore
[22.10.2019 22:04:01] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: I spent most of my life outside of... happenings
[22.10.2019 22:04:16] Helena_Baruss: and going indie it's... not my thing
[22.10.2019 22:04:39] Helena_Baruss: I heard of your little... activities... while i was in Bering
[22.10.2019 22:04:49] Helena_Baruss: and it looked quite fun
[22.10.2019 22:05:05] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Was that when I was yelling at a Rogue?
[22.10.2019 22:05:31] Helena_Baruss: don't know
[22.10.2019 22:05:55] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: His name a Cadillac Frank and he had a bar
[22.10.2019 22:06:05] Helena_Baruss: maybe, don't know the name
[22.10.2019 22:06:10] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Or something with guns and alcohol
[22.10.2019 22:06:43] Helena_Baruss: so, will you take me in ?
[22.10.2019 22:07:11] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Woman, I don't many any such decissions
[22.10.2019 22:07:20] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Unless you want in Misaki squad
[22.10.2019 22:07:45] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Do you like cardamine at least?
[22.10.2019 22:08:29] Helena_Baruss: never tried, but I'm not affraid of it, heard you were all junkies
[22.10.2019 22:08:41] Helena_Baruss: that was some of... criteria for joining
[22.10.2019 22:08:47] Helena_Baruss: I don't care
[22.10.2019 22:08:48] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: That is not what I am, bakayarou
[22.10.2019 22:09:04] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Cardamine is a blessing
[22.10.2019 22:10:02] Helena_Baruss: well i'd be gladly "blessed" with your narcotic if you take me to somone who could decide if i'm worthy enough to join you
[22.10.2019 22:11:01] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: You ask the wrong person. I am a squad leader and I don't make such calls
[22.10.2019 22:11:15] Helena_Baruss: maybe, but you know who can
[22.10.2019 22:11:33] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Also, Rheinlanders are generally not liked. I was planning to waste you before you asked me this question
[22.10.2019 22:12:01] Helena_Baruss: i don't care being disregarded
[22.10.2019 22:12:07] Helena_Baruss: I still wanna join
[22.10.2019 22:12:16] Helena_Baruss: i don't ask any one of you to like me
[22.10.2019 22:12:42] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Eh you are persistant. I will get our Command to at least hear you out
[22.10.2019 22:12:51] Helena_Baruss: now we are talking
[22.10.2019 22:13:21] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: *takes a sip of the sake bottle*
[22.10.2019 22:13:41] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Any things that speak in your favour I should report?
[22.10.2019 22:14:12] Helena_Baruss: tricky one, i think anything i said could probably be used against me
[22.10.2019 22:14:24] Helena_Baruss: but i was raised within a terrorist group
[22.10.2019 22:14:30] Helena_Baruss: so i'm not affraid of death
[22.10.2019 22:15:27] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: You know the Kusarian language? culture? history?
[22.10.2019 22:16:01] Helena_Baruss: i'm a quick learner
[22.10.2019 22:16:29] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: That you better *she laughs*
[22.10.2019 22:19:20] Helena_Baruss: so, when are we leaving ?
[22.10.2019 22:19:29] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: To?
[22.10.2019 22:19:43] Helena_Baruss: to where your boss is, you promise to guide me
[22.10.2019 22:19:52] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: I promised nothing
[22.10.2019 22:20:41] Helena_Baruss: well, i was thinking of your boss would like to "hear of me" in a more direct manner
[22.10.2019 22:20:42] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: I said I would mention you
[22.10.2019 22:21:02] Helena_Baruss: but i understand, you don't wanna reveal your secret bases to a stranger
[22.10.2019 22:21:04] Helena_Baruss: fair enough
22.10.2019 22:21:38] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: My 'Boss' wont show herself to any random person showing up. We got people like me they go through first
[22.10.2019 22:21:51] Helena_Baruss: well, sound fair too
[22.10.2019 22:22:06] Helena_Baruss: tell her i'll be at Freeport 6 if she wanna hear some more
[22.10.2019 22:22:08] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: If you are lucky that it was me you encountered is another thing entirely
[22.10.2019 22:22:24] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: I will
[22.10.2019 22:23:09] Helena_Baruss: but remember : I'm of the stubborn kind
[22.10.2019 22:23:22] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: And what do you think I am?
[22.10.2019 22:23:47] Helena_Baruss: someone who is tru to hers word
[22.10.2019 22:23:52] Helena_Baruss: *true
[22.10.2019 22:24:09] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Never heard that description before.
[22.10.2019 22:24:15] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: But Okay
[22.10.2019 22:24:41] Helena_Baruss: I look forward to hearing back from you, your boss or anyone from your group
[22.10.2019 22:24:54] Helena_Baruss: if not i'll come back to ask myself for an answer
[22.10.2019 22:24:59] Helena_Baruss: have a nice drink !
[22.10.2019 22:25:05] GC-Yunoki.Misaki: Sayonara
[22.10.2019 22:25:13] Helena_Baruss: aufwiedersehen

Well... At least you didn't end up in a pod again.
Despite the fact we both know you should've shot them down. I can't say I wouldn't have been intrigued into such a conversation either as you are right, it's not every day that a Rheinlander wishes to join us. You did well, all things considered.
No, we're not junkers, Misaki. We aren't a filthy group of people plagued by greed and in terrible need of a shower. They called us junkies because the gift of cardamine is regarded by most to be a drug, and because we use it constantly they consider not only us, but Hackers, Rogues, and Maltese alike, junkies.
I am not surprised an outsider is not interested in our 'politics' if you can even call them that. They were most likely referring to our way of life, which is non-negotiable. They say they are willing to learn, but admit they have no interest in such things. They seem to have an almost entirely blind hatred of men in particular. Not understanding why we "fight the fight" in a sense. I'm sure you've met a couple better men than those in Kusari. A few among the Lane Hackers, Rogues and Maltese. There are also good men in the Blood Dragons. It's the oppression of Women and the very soul of Kusari that we fight against.
My rant aside, shoot them down the next time you see them in our territory. Good work, Misaki.
I know you like collecting my pods, but I am more likely to trash my ship when you are around.
What is up with all these Rheinlanders in Kusari lately? Yesterday I encountered a Unioner battleship in Honshu. It was huge and called the Sirene or something similar. I wanted to attack that one, but someone removed the missile launchers from the Hanazakari. Yes I know I wasn't even supposed to be piloting that ship but, but I just like the missiles, but they were gone. And I just realised it wasn't smart that I uploaded the log of me joyriding the Hanazakari yesterday on CCN. Or telling you...
Wait, so if she called us junkies, we are being compared to a "group of people plagued by greed and in terrible need of a shower". But Hanako, I shower every day! I am also not that greedy. I just want enough money to buy some things I like. I still want to buy that pretty handfan I saw on Kyoto. Its is black with a red dragon on it. I know I am not a blood dragon, but I just like how it looks. Did I ever show you the matching Kimono I would have for it? It is a black one with cherries on it.
Oh back to the Helena LWB woman. Yes she does seem to hate all men for some reason. I dont hate all of them. Torres is very nice. But yea, she seems to be weird and unknowing of our ways like you said. Next time I will shoot a missile at it.

Blaming me now, Misaki?
The reason you're more likely to trash your ship when i'm around is because you're constantly trying to impress those around you. When you're alone you operate like one of our best.
Also... you hijacked the Hanazaraki? The Matriarch's gunship? Well I suppose that proves you either have nerves of steel or are just that reckless. Telling me something like this isn't detrimental to how I view you, i'm not a snitch. We're partners in crime after all. Though I have a feeling she already found out what you did. Something like that doesn't stay off the radar for long.
Yes, I too find the Blood Dragon's items Aesthetically pleasing, but I am not a material woman. I get what I need to get the job done and I do just that. I don't have time for all that other nonsense. My sisters are my main concern.
Well, I guess that often gets me into trouble, hai.
About the Hanazakari. I guess you are right. Okay, listen. Last time I hijacked the Hanazakari I was grounded for a week. This is why I want you to smuggle me out of Kusari until the week ended. If you can find a big suitcase I might hide in it. I think I saw this in a movie once.
Plan B involves me apologising and not doing it again, but I doubt I am very convincing, since I am notorious thief. Speaking of stealing... I can get you something nice if you want. You deserves aesthetically pleasing things too.
No that isn't all.
When do I get to be part of Aya's Imperial Guard?

Wait...
Let me get this straight. You want me to stuff you inside a suitcase, and smuggle you out of Kusari... somehow. And then do what, you won't have any of your things with you. I swear you don't think things through.
As long as you humble yourself before the Matriarch, 'without' trying to steal something in plain view, i'm sure the apology will be well received and convincing.
Aya's Imperial Guard.... I'm not sure what you're referring to, but that sounds like something in the distant future when we finally seize back Kusari from our enemy's tainted hands.
