THE DRIFT FLEET

Who: Hans & you!
Broadcast: Video
Action: N
When: December 21

[ Feeling a little cooped up on his ship, Hans had anticipated his first planetary visit. Needless to say, when he finds himself coming down with an illness after one day on the icy rock, he's more than a bit put-out.

He had the usual cold symptoms. Shouldn't it be gone by now? And yet, it isn't, and he's had just about enough of sniffling like a child and sleeping away time better spent elsewhere.

As such, it's time to reach out - and, perhaps, score a few sympathy points in the meantime. In spite of his red nose and congested voice, Hans doesn't miss the opportunity to flash a smile at the screen. ]

Pardon me for the interruption. I know everyone's quite preoccupied with visiting this delightful planet [ because it's so charming, it's snow and ice, he loves snow and ice, except for the part where he hates it ] but I've been feeling under the weather lately, and I was hoping someone could suggest a remedy. The usual tricks just don't seem to quite cut it.

[ It's not as if he's been reckless with his health! He has been trying to get better, resting, eating and drinking well, keeping warming, and yet? ] Anything you can offer in the way of advice, or even medical aid would be much appreciated.

If we haven't formally met, my apologies. My name is Hans. Thank you so much for your time.
