##Mission Update
I will join Heironymoose Warnsforth as a Warden, so we’ve got that covered. I look forward to working with you, Heiro.

MISSION 2
END
We also have Three Diggers, Three Guardians, and two Iconoclasts. What we are completely missing are Recon and Scholars. That isn’t surprising, as everyone who qualifies for Recon or Scholar is “better” at something else.
The best Recon candidates are Browf Clamphoof @Glutnix and Coccinea M Ornatus @othermichael.
The best Scholar candidates are Ester @penguin_chris, Omicron Nu Pi, PhD @monkeyoh, and Spike Green Arm @daneel

✔ mission 2Ester, thanks for joining me for a refreshing pause. While not up to the incredible level of your depictions, I wanted to share this “selfie” I took of us.
I find the hard vacuum cleans my joints and clears my head. I hope we can do this again some time, and that others will join us.
THANK YOU!!

p.s. What would you prefer your nickame to be? For some reason “Isoamyl acetate” rushed to my mind, but we space lobsters tend to make odd free associations.

[I <3 your analysis of the situation. Theodore assumes that Mission 6 was made specifically for him, and there’s no changing course. Even if it were to be determined that he is not qualified, he would double down on his choice, and call everyone else haters. Logically, even with the odds stacked against him, he would still succeed in that mission.]

You can keep your fetid, rotting juice. I don’t need it! In fact, I have 65 juice I’m not using at the moment, as I’ve taken on a lot of new residents out here at Mar-a-Lagoon Nebula (Restaurant, Resort, SCIF hideaway). [I can’t believe I didn’t recognize that Mars-a-Lago would have been funnier). With repairs not on the menu, I don’t see the point in tossing juice at a problem I can solve using my vast IQ. It’s the best, really. So unless the menu changes, hit me with your juice requests. I can do three blocks of 20 for purchases, or send it in nickles and dimes to get folks up to 20 (or 30) as needed.

“I think that Hans ‘Extra Butter’ Landau has a good point, Browf. You’re the best equipped out of all these shooters to be on Recon. You should probably go on the stealthy offense, rather than the non-stealthy kind.”

Oooooo. This is fun. I get to choose what kind of special princess to be? My suit is telling me I can be a Digger Princess or a Guardian Princess. I think I want to be a Digger. That means I can wear my princess dress in the sandbox. I’m not supposed to do that, but if I’m a Digger Princess, I HAVE TO.

Buying out my contract?
Grandpa, did you sell me into slavery again? You big trolley poop! Grandma said you’re not supposed to do that any more! I’m going to SpaceMail you right now and tell you that you were going to get to come to my birthday party, but now you can’t. And it’s going to be really fun because there is going to be a space dragon there. A real one. AND all my new friends. And Auntie Donna will be there because there will be no mope around the party. HA!

After those selections I shall only have 11Ʉ left in my juice-box, which is not even enough for a single upgrade.
Does anybody have 9 juice to spare? With my existing EVAsion and SENsory levels, I should probably burnish my tragically-low SCIence quotient?
Anybody gots 9Ʉ or 29Ʉ to spare?
