Commander's Log, 13:35L, 22 Feb 3302:Smuggling is so damn iffy these days... I'm getting really sick of the random scans by cops that seem like they come from nowhere.
Found myself in Uibuth yesterday, helping the Cyan Lady free slaves, such as it were. Hey, if she never finds out that my first batch was picked up to smuggle into Fed space, and I just happened to get scanned, well... What the Princess doesn't know, the Princess doesn't know, right?
Hell, the universe is big enough that no one should allow themselves to be MADE a slave in the first place... I'm just making a living. Still... trading legal slaves is a lot less hair raising than smuggling them into Winters' territory... I may have to get one of those big Lakon transporters and go straight for a few weeks, just to see if the profit is really worth it. Not the Type-6 or Type-7, mind, I want one of the big ones. I'll worry about bouncing the barge off of the mail slot when I come around to it. Heh. Only 90 million more credits till I can properly outfit one, along with the purchase. I'm not selling the Lydian Shadow for a shipping barge.
Speaking of, The Shadow fills the trading role pretty well in the meantime. Granted, I haven't maxed her full of cargo racks, but even keeping a shield, along with some other goodies, I turned a pretty good profit, not including the Community Goal payout I should be seeing in a day or two. I just hate having to buckle and unbuckle new parts every time I turn around...
The keepin' on keeps keepin' on, I suppose...
Yo-ho, a smugglers' life for me.
Not a pirate. That's way too much work.
