Blameless gumball wishes and taxicab dreams

[On Today's Episode of Drift Fleet:

The cargo are still full of crates of gumballs! The ships are well booked past capacity! There's a new empty vessel in the fleet- the SS Blameless! Official alerts have informed the passengers that they are signed to contracts that they've never agreed to! They are still docked at the dazzling FS Starlight, but are flat broke (or have they made it big?)

How is the fleet handling these turns of events? Find out in the continuation!

...Meaning, this is a spillover mingle for February's mingle as it's hit recaptcha. Feel free to use this mingle to start new threads, or carry on old threads from the previous mingle!

- Current Plot Setting
- Previous Mingle Post
- Latest Shuffle

Tag around, have fun, and feel free to continue posting your own posts/ship mingles! We really mean it this time when we say this will be the only mod-posted one for the event!]

That won't be necessary. [ it's snippy, shaking his head. jim u are the worst. ] Instead of being smug, do you think you'd like to tell me a little about how this works?

[ He has to get his little pleasures here and there, Howard. ]

Heh, yeah, sure.

[ He launches into a basic explanation of the controls. He's not necessarily a programmer, though he did write the code-virus that altered the Kobayashi Maru and the agent to deliver to it to the system. All right, so he knew a thing or two, but he had his bits of expertise like anyone else. He kept it simple to start anyways - not that he thought Howard wasn't smart and wouldn't understand, but like with any skill you started with the basics and worked your way up to the more advanced stuff. ]

The overall point is to make the program do as much of the work as possible for the end user.
