Quirky slurches down in the captainās cage aboard the Somewhat, stabbing at the Omni-Pay⢠with the butt of the little black flag from his Drink-With-The-Little-Black-Flag. Itās a big drink. Itās not a happy drink. Itās a grim, somebody-done-somebody-wrong drink.

Lt. Rockford, itās been a honor serving with you. Now, we could take it easy and deliver the mail. Weāre ZepEx and thatās what we do.
But, you see Rocky, I donāt have a hat. And Iām not going home without a hat. Sure someone might mail someone else a hat. And maybe that package is undeliverable. And maybe I just so happen to forget to deliver it to the dead letter office.
You know who else doesnāt have hats? Drones. No sense in going after a bunch of hatless drones. Now, Giant rolling Pennies. Do they have hats, I donāt know. If they do, the damn thing would be too big for me.
So where does that leave us in the current situation? Cloud Miners have those nice little hard hats. I want one of those hard hats.
Iām guessing the badass space dragon is hidden inside that badass bad penny. Iām going to sneak up vewy vewy quietwy on that bad olā penny and listen to see if I can hear the dragon breathing. What could possibly go wrong?

Iām going to show these Unizone thugs a little something on style, make sure that burnt scrap matches the logo. Itās time for some DIY!
Somewhere in the medical bay, Jonah fiddles around with an androidās mechanical cerebrum. Hearing Wooster laugh and gurgle, he mutters, āJumalani, heās lost it.ā

TEN DRONES IS THE BEST WAY TO GO!
I requested to put my unspent b80 into the fund (hopefully to get it back if I survive the next mission) so it wonāt be lost if I am. I recommend other captains place their spare bits into the community fund for safekeeping. Itās getting just a bit dangerous out there.
Yesssss. Concur.

Fellow Captains, hereās hoping to see you on the other side.
Take her out, Liz-Tenant.
Following your example, Iām transferring my remaining b15 to the Falkayn Memorial Community Fund. All other orders remain unchanged.

"Well, Pennywhistle you old blowhard, our compatriots are dropping like particularly massy objects in a sizeable gravity well. Something big. Like an asteroid, but bigger. Either the falling thing or the gravity well.
āNevermind. What Iām saying, now, is that we didnāt do enough to help them, and we done hardly helped ourselves. Now we need help. But thatās fine, thatās fine. Weāll make us a name for ourselves yet. Letās find us a coin!ā
I would like to formally request a Loan of 32 bits so as to overhaul the fair ship Pennywhistle and take mission 2.
