| Evening love,
I know you’re still mad, it’s just — really, how often do I get to explain what pants are? Of COURSE I’ll have a little fun and say you wear them on your arms. Honestly, it’s like you’ve never heard of a practical joke before, which… On second thought, I suppose you actually haven’t, being stuck on Akopos your whole life. That’s actually the reason I’m writing you. I was hoping I could plumb you for information about my people, specifically our life-cycles and why my scales are falling off like bloody parade confetti. Cheers! Pendles // Executive Executions: Ask About Our Family Discounts! Jerk. We learned much from the Roa, but they shared very little about their own lives. I only came in contact with Elder Roa who had made their final transition long ago. You were only supposed to be gone from Akopos for a few years. Maybe you’re just becoming an old snake? Alani That’s precisely what I’m worried about, love — I ain’t keen on losing me limbs. Poncing around like a giant eel is all well and good on an ocean world, but we’re in the middle of bloody space! I can’t expect to keep business up if I can’t even walk! Your nanowhatzits — they can regenerate cells, right? Help a fellow sea buddy out. Pendles // Executive Executions: Available for Corporate Retreats and Birthday Parties! The best I could hope to do is to stall the transition — I can’t undo any progress it’s already made. Have you shown any other symptoms yet? Alani Just the aforementioned scale-shedding, some mild joint pain, headaches, etc. Nothing too worrisome. It’s probabsdfbdddd [auto-dictate enabled] [+00:00:01] OH SWEET MOTHER, MY BLOODY ARM FELL OFF! |

Trouble with the boss, disputes with a neighbor, or irreconcilable differences with a spouse and their lucrative life insurance policy?

Ghalt, Benedict here. I just heard talk that you’re thinking of bringing on that Roa, Pendles. Ain’t going to question your judgement or nothing, but there’s something I think you should know about him. About 15 years ago, I was still hot on the beak about what happened on Menneck-B, so I did what I always do and found somewhere dark that served Old Corusca nectar by the tureen. No idea how long I was there, but I’m sure the establishment in question wasn’t too far from charging me rent. You know me, I talk. I talk when I’m glad and, boy, do I talk when I’m mad. Everyone in the joint was getting an earful about how much I hated my old MSBC commander, this old Kormiri son-of-a-hen, and nodding politely, because that’s what you do when a nectar’d up Buteonen with a rocket launcher tell you a story. The only one who I could tell was actually listening was this kid. He didn’t look like he does now, still had both eyes and tentacles for both arms. Wasn’t all dressed up the way he does now. He was really quiet, just taking everything in around him. He looked like it was his first time out of the pond, and it turned out it was. I was spewing all sorts of stuff, real dumb talk, the kind you only get from an Aviant who thinks he’ll never fly again. What I might have said — what I hope I didn’t say, because then what happened next wouldn’t be my fault — was something like, “I wish that tenderbeak bastard was dead. Really! And I’d buy a round for whoever got him, too.” Well, anyone normal who hears that laughs it off, knows it’s all bluster. But this must have been his first time out in the wild, you know? It’s like that Magnus who they told to make paperclips at maximum efficiency. Chewed up an entire star system and its population before they could shut him down. Someone just wanted cheaper office supplies and ended up killing four billion people. So this kid hears me — supposedly — say I want my old commander dead, get up, leaves the establishment. A few hours later, he walks back in. He’s got a limp. His left eye’s burnt up. And he’s holding something. That Kormiri bastard must have put up a hell of a fight. He was a thirty year veteran of the MSBC, and Scales there took him down — unarmed. Thought he was fulfilling a contract. Obviously, I freaked out. I told him to get out of the system before the Peacekeepers started looking for him, or worse, connected me to him. He tried to give me the old Pel’s head and I told him to take it with him. He thought I was saying it waswas a trophy. Few years later, I start seeing these ads. He’d gone pro. Made a business for himself. “Executive Executions,” he’d called it. Now I ain’t one to judge the love of killing, Ghalt, but you just watch yourself around him. And don’t ever, EVER ask him for a paperclip. |
