Voice

[wilder]

Who: Kaneis Major
Broadcast: Voice, all fleet.
Action: SS Wonderduck
When: This week!

[What's this? An actual transmission from Kaneis? It's on voice only, and guess what- he sounds as apathetic as ever.]

Hey, I don't want to alarm anyone, but I was looking at the scans earlier while trying not to crash into these space rocks- asteroids? Whatever.

Anyway, you remember those guys that tried to kill us about two months ago? The guys that kicked the living crap outta us? Those guys? Yeah, I think they're back again. At least, that's what the scanner says, it's hard to really get a good read.

[He gives a yawn] Yeah. Just thought someone would like to know.

...Okay, you win for strangest childhood I've heard about. And that's a pretty tough category to win in, so..congrats?

[feathery]

Do I get a prize. [More sarcasm.] I got to be quick and claim it, 'cause Jade might outdo me, what with being raised by a dog.

[wilder]

Maybe once I think of something.

Then again by the time I do, that raised by a dog story might beat you out. That's pretty weird.

[feathery]

Yeah, ask her about it sometime. It gets weirder. Anyway, so are we just gonna chill and see what our space stalkers do, then.

[wilder]

You got a better plan? They kinda outgun us if the last fight says anything.

[feathery]

Wasn't really a criticism. It's not like I was around for the last one.

[He is basically going through all the transmissions attached to this broadcast, though.]

Mostly I'm wondering if there's anything I'm supposed to do.

[wilder]

[He offers a half shrug in...apology? He didn't mean for it to sound defensive, even if Landon has already tried to push for counterattack. But...he'll confess]

I have no idea. [Outside of piloting he's kinda not sure what you do on a ship. There's a reason he isn't the Captain] They've never responded to hails before, but...I dunno, maybe write them a letter?

[feathery]

A letter.

[There's a pause as he considers that. Oh, well, if nothing else he can make it as dumb as possible.]

Sure, why not. I'll beam them a strongly worded letter, right at to the brain. Check if it damages their frontal lobes, if nothing else. Assuming they've got frontal lobes.

[wilder]

[He makes an amused sound and smirks a little]

You have my utmost faith in your brain damaging words.
