Morning Coffee
23 Jun 2021Beepy
These people never learn.... Most shouldn't even be allowed to leave their home planet, much-less access a ship. Then you have these damn fools that call themselves "pirates". Had three today sitting there in the wings, watching as I obliterated two Elite Anacondas back-to-back. The Anaconda's never stood a chance against my Corvette. The beams and multi-cannons chewing through them like a kid goes through a pack of gum. Had the nerve to scan me and ask what I was hauling. I don't know, you tell me? Could be 100 tons of void opals or 100 tons of biowaste. Either way these degenerates would demand a piece.If only commonsense was more common... If I saw a Federal Corvette take out two Condas without so much as a scratch on their first shield ring, while sitting in an Adder with two Eagles as wingmates. I'd laugh, tip my hat for the entertainment and gtfo as soon as possible... Not hail the CMDR and demand to know what they have on board. These idiots didn't so much as finish their hail before the Adder evaporated. Most pilots would immediately beat-feet but these two stuck around. I took my time and finished my morning coffee as these idiots threw everything they had at me. Vaporized the next guy and the final Eagle ended up crashing into my port broadside, tore its wing off and went spinning out of control before exploding shortly thereafter. Maybe 150,000c between the three of them in the end. Hardly worth the munitions. Just another "notch" in the ever-growing kill logs.
At the end of the day, at least Arissa Duval pays handsomely for taking out the trash. The local bounties plus 30% on top of that total? Ok, you've got my attention. Money can buy loyalty... for time. But as soon as that cashflow dries up?
They'll lose me just like the Federation did...
