It's been two weeks already. Well, the two-week mark was two days ago, actually. I just noticed. Two weeks since I started my journey. Don't think Hudson's goons have forgotten about me, though. Doesn't matter, I'm not coming back just yet. I'll probably stay here for over a month, and I still want to go see Sgr A*.
Decided to go for the 'Conda. Planning to outfit her with some big guns and missiles. Wanted to avoid lasers, without thermal venting they're just going to cook me faster than they cook the target. I could focus the beam for more efficiency, or longer range, but I don't know how to redirect the heat. Engineers wouldn't teach me that trick. Clever bastards, guess they didn't want to become obsolete. Although, I could always go with pulse lasers instead, just to bring down the shields, then use missiles to finish the target off. But I know nothing about pulses, wouldn't even be able to overcharge them. You'd think learning to tinker with beams would carry over to pulses, but no. Entirely different beasts, they are. Ugh, fuck.
Decisions, decisions...
Comrey out.
