[@CmdrAlfieq][@Hokum] [b]As Ernest[/b] Ernest is quite surprised that the resources are running low already. How cheap was that food that we are already running low over the course of a few hours? Ernest contemplates the Advocate's commands. The only entity on the Ernest fitting to represent Ernest is Ernest himself. However, Ernest isn't on the spaceship. He IS the spaceship. He can't exactly leave his own body. Technically he could separate his core from his hull, but that would result in the effective destruction of his hull, which would be incredibly counter-intuitive. If only Fanny May and her ship was here, he could stick Ernest Jr on her ship and have them go down to see the Queen. Oh well, he can't rely on Miss May for everything now. Ernest responds to the Queen's Advocate. "As the Ernest, it would only be fitting if I represent myself. However, this is impractical, since I am a spaceship. I could send one of my repair pods and control it remotely, but I don't have a way of getting one of those pods down to the surface. I don't have any ejectable crafts inside my hull. The best way I can think of to send one is for one of your escort ships to fly close to my hull, and have a repair pod climb onto my exterior and jump over to the escort. I understand this is an awkward method of doing this, but I don't have a better method." [hr] [@Hokum] [b]As Ramrod[/b] Ramrod thinks. "I forget, does stoned mean drunk or high? I got drunk once. I don't really know what happened, I completely blacked out. I think I made a spaceship or something. No idea where that spaceship went, I must have crashed it or something... I dunno. I don't really want to get drunk again, last time I was pretty Mraoh'd up." Apparently the translator doesn't know how to translate Ramrod's swear words. Ramrod notices Hank. "Hank! You are alive! And not broken! And... hovering? You can you fly or something now?" Ramrod walks over to the floating Hank, trying to figure out how he is hovering. [hr] [b]As Rodia and Siren[/b] Siren walks onto the stage in front of the crowd. "People of Rodia. As we have established, we have been visited by a race of incredibly advance robots called the Sporn. I would like to clarify that they are not an invasion force. They are unexpected guests. However, based on the fact that this galaxy is their territory, it is more like Rodia being their guests. Since we are kinda stuck in their territory, their representative leader, Commander 1.0-1 "Aoa", has offered to help us. He said that the Sporn could provide metal to finish the unfinished R-Cores, and to help us complete and possibly even upgrade out station. We have nothing to return to them, except for our company, as from what I have gathered they really get visitors. so we'll be in debt for the foreseeable future." "Sporn guests. I am Siren, the leader of Rodia, and I humbly welcome you aboard our station. We are excited to have you with us, as I think we could learn much from your people. And I also humbly thank you for letting us stay in your galaxy until we have the means and need to relocate. If you have any questions, I suggest you either ask me, R-0-0 Rorod, or R-2-28 Lars. At this point, I will continue to speak with 1.0-1 Aoa to talk about the plans for our future. I wish you all good fortune in your interactions with the R-Cores."
