Badass Dragon Scavengers of the Void - Round 5 - Intermezzo

I don’t remember when my birthday is, but I think it’s in Novober. Or maybe Tuesday. I have to ask Grandpa. But he’s still not invited.

Who can come to my birthday? Let’s see…

After a brief consultation with Hans “Philosolobster” Landau, I’ve come to a decision about my scavenging path. It’s a Scholar’s life for me.

Hm - can’t seem to find a syntactically correct set of orders in there. I’ll let the boss know.

So, @Kassandra - do you have any moving parts, or are you built like a solid-state shithouse?

“I don’t want a call sign based on an object I happened to scoop up on the last mission. I don’t even care about that damned potato,” said Browf. “Have you managed to turn the voice off?”

“Here you go,” said Dakota, passing the analytical potato back to Browf. “Turned out all I needed to do was order it to disable it’s voice.”

Now there’s a name fit for a moose! Racks! I LOVE IT!

Just be glad it wasn’t an Emo Potato - those won’t accept orders and whine all day.

Say, that reminds me of Watney…

Don’t be a hater. We can’t exactly call you Dr. Doctor, can we?

Can’t you see she’s burning, burning?

I believe the preferred moniker is “Professor.”

Indeed, for the rigorous training Omicron underwent, the correct appellation is “Herr Professor Doktor” - but “Professor” is fine here in the informality of the outer systems.

Professor Dr. Doctor?

Things were easier when I was in grad school.
