[ The video feed opens with a very irritable-looking blonde. She pinches the bridge of her nose for a moment, summoning the will to not just scream at everyone over the network ... and then there's a very long-suffering sigh as she looks up at the camera. ]

All right. Fine. I shouldn't have to say this, but since apparently some of you have serious issues and don't understand how creepy and perverted you're being, I'm going to.

I'm sure most of you remember the media files we got after that whole episode with the Marsiva. If you don't, everyone had some files uploaded to the network that were ... things from their home world? Things they might like? I don't know, something like that.

Anyways, I don't know why people keep nosing around in my file, but whatever. You're curious, I get it, they're public files, whatever. But whoever started PASSING THE DAMN THING AROUND to strangers needs to find a hobby. And stop before you send it to an actual child's mailbox! It's inappropriate!

[ She huffs, her fists clenched at her sides after that little bit of ranting. ]

And for the record, no, I don't enjoy that piece of crap, someone from my world happened to write it, and I guess Atroma thought it would be funny to give it to me.

Just -- find something better to do with your time, all right? Don't make me hunt you down. [ Is there a way to do that? She has no idea, but she'll act like she does! ]

Oh, really? Well -- then you guys will have a lot to talk about. He was working on building a healthcare robot that works like a doctor at home, but he's been working on some other stuff here, too. I'm sure he'd love to talk to you about them.

That would be great. I've been trying to build a small pet droid, but gathering scraps here is tough. I'd love to talk to him when I can.

I'm Anakin Skywalker, pilot on the Paisley.

[ his introduction via han solo doesn't count ok ]

I'm sure he can hook you up, or at least help you out later if he doesn't have anything to share.

[ Oh, yeah. She hasn't introduced herself, has she? ]

Ino, Captain of the Three Twins. So you're on Alex's ship, huh?

Great. [ a beat ] I don't have much to trade with but my first mate makes cookies. They're good.

[ Nothing's for free, right ]

I am. Why, you looking for a pilot?

[ She laughs. ]

He likes chocolate and peanut butter. Didn't know Stefan baked, though.

We do have a pilot, but I'd love to get rid of him ...

[ He shrugs and laughs a bit ] How long do you have to know a person to know they bake? Anyway, I don't think we have chocolate or peanut butter. And to be honest, finding substitutes for them might be a hit or miss.

Who's your pilot?
