My name's Jimmy O'Brian and I'd like to offer ya a deal. I 'now yer in posession of a certain equipement I'd very much liked to aquire and I bet ya 'now what I'm talkin' 'bout. Yes, I'd like to have the Jumphole generator parts. Now, the question is, what do ya want fer them? I assume it ain't money, since ya refused to sell it fer quarter billion o' credits, which is an awfull lot o' cash. So, what is it ya 'd be willin' to exchange those parts fer?
To be frank, I am still undecided about what I should do with that material. Plenty of people seem to display an unhealthy interest about it; probably a fine share of dangerous ones among them, even.
So it's pretty clear I should get rid of it before something awful happens.
But I don't think I would hand it over to a complete stranger. Especially when I do not know with whom he works with, what group or company he belongs to, or where his loyalty lies. Not when I don't know what he plans to do with it either.
Furthermore, not knowing the capabilities, means or assets you can leverage, I can only return you the question. What can you do for me? What are you ready to give in exchange of that material?
I know very little about those parts, so perhaps telling me what you know about them would be a good start.
I understand yer caution. Since I dinnae have anythin' to hide, I'd tell ya what ya want to 'now. I'm a member of Freelancing Escorts and Repairs, a network of freelancers, capable of aquirin' and deliverin' almost everythin' that can be traded, though tradin' ain't the only think we do. However, the interest in these parts is more of a personal. I am tryin' to get 'em fer a scientist, who's researchin' the Jump Holes. He mentioned this equipement durin' one of our meetings and that's why I'm tryin to get some.
How 'bout you come to my base to talk with the scientist? That way ya can decide if ya want to help him.
Speakin' of your potential payment... I have contacts. Pretty much every comodity you might need, I probably 'now someone able to get it. Ya need to dissapear? I can help with that too. Need a legal job? Sure, why not. Need an escort or a wingman? Just ask. And sure I can give ye money too, but dinnae expect billions. I have a few rather expensive projects goin' on.
I see; a group of Freelancers then. That's interesting.
A meeting could be arranged. I would like to know the name of this scientist you mentioned, and the location of this base of yours.
That said, I believe minimum courtesy is to let you know I may be outlawed soon in Bretonia, having committed some questionable acts recently, including the destruction of a BAF patrol wing in Omega 3.
But I wouldn't be surprised if your group had agreements with criminal organizations. Which may be a problem if you are helping people I consider as my enemies.
my base is not located in Bretonia, so this dinnae concern me. I wonder what drived ya to shoot that patrol, but that's not important.
The station is Glendalough Orbital, located in Coronado, but you'll have to wait fer the scientist's name. He values his privacy so I hafta ask him first.
And miss, ye should't concern with FL-ER too much. Ya're dealin' with me, and not with 'em. That's the beauty of our organization, we are a network of independent people. We work together when we want, and when we don't, we go solo. FL-ER as a group ain't interested in this tech and I see no reason to tell 'em about the research.
The scientist's name is Nick Rush. He agreed to meet ya on board of the station. If ye are interested, come to the Glendalough Orbital and send me yer ship's callsign so I can add ya to the dockin' list.
My apologies for not getting back to you earlier. As I mentioned during our short encounter in Manchester system two days ago, I have been shortly contracted by IMG to help securing the route taken by one of their convoys. That kept me busy for a while.
Sadly for you, a few quick jobs followed, which eventually lead me to Liberty, where a minor incident happened.
I am currently located in one of the Border-worlds between Liberty and Bretonia. I believe we can arrange a meeting Today or tomorrow so that I can meet that friend of yours.
Coronado system sounds like a reasonable enough place to have a discussion. However, I'm quite concerned about Colonial Remnants, who probably would be fine killing me on sight, bad blood existing between them and Kusari. That said, my ship call-sign is simply 'Sanada.Junko'.
seems to me like ya had a few interestin' days. By the way, Crayterians no longer call themself by the name yer used, but I get what ya mean. I doubt they treat kusarians as kill on sight, however.... since ye are from KNF, a thing ya kinda forgot to mention by the way, I'd advise keepin' yer head down. Yer ship has been cleared to dock, I'll send ya the coordinates through a chanel bit more... secure.
