Well, I did promise a update sooner. Of course, it's a different thing altogether with the different things that are going on.I did hear about the bases being attacked by Thargoids. It's a scary thought, I'd rather not get involved, so I am more staying on my own inside the bubble of civilized space. Not heading tens of thousands of light years away from Earth. I mean eventually I will head out to Colonia, but not at this time. I need to first refit my ship to be worthwhile for that long voyage outside of my personal bubble. Sure, it'd be a neat trip, but it'd take a while, but the sights to see. I'm more satisfied right now being in normal space.
Working for the Diamond Frogs again felt really nice, and getting a big payday for helping out deliver things to Skvortsov Orbital was really nice when I contacted the liasion for my pay. I mean she recognized me, even if it's been a long time since I last did a job for her, and was a bit relieved I wasn't dead. Transferred the credits to my account, and even with the small amount of work I did, it was still a nice payday. I think that I got more profit from actually delivering the goods to the station.
Of course, that puts me on my next voyage. I am helping out Angeli Imperial Enterprises with their construction of an agricultural vessel in the Wangan system, helping deliver items to them. I am not expecting as much of a payday as working with the Diamond Frogs and my home station, but I am still going to give them a hand. As much as I would like to give a hand to GalCop Colonial Defense instead, they are a little out of the way and I am still not ready for that big voyage out there.
I would need to find many places to land among the way to just sleep. I couldn't do it all in one jump, and of course a log wouldn't be updated until after I arrive at Jacques station, and then the way back would also be a long voyage.
Just not something I am willing to do at this time. Eventually I will travel there. Just not now.
