Transcript preview
First 90 secondsSpeaker 10:00
[machine beeping] Engine three. [machine beeping] Nope. Our psycho tour guide is still screwed. If we can get her out of this weather tonight, I can open her up properly. I have a feeling, though, that that damn mage did a number on the tech circuit.
Speaker 20:23
All other systems nominal apart from the EC. Uplink still locked down.
Speaker 10:27
Yeah, otherwise green across the board.
Speaker 20:29
I see our unwanted cargo was accessing sensors during the refuel.
Speaker 10:32
That's interesting, though. No real threat, so no weird witchy activity like at the border. How's it looking out there?
Speaker 20:38
There's three of them in orange jumpsuits, so these are our penitentiary ladies for sure. I'd guess they're all in their 20s, but to be honest, they're so covered in mud, it's hard to tell.
Speaker 10:48
And Alice is bringing them back to the Strega.
Speaker 20:50
Yep.
Speaker 10:51
Make sure you've got a weapon handy. I do not like this at all. Nobody just walks out of the penitentiaries, especially not a witch.
Speaker 20:58
I'll be ready. The witch can glitch drone mechanisms. I don't want her messing with the Strega systems. [sighs] We need an excuse to check her data spikes.
Speaker 11:07
I have one, and it's not even an excuse. Christ. I command Alice to do good her instincts, but come on, how are we meant to fit them in?
Speaker 21:13
Uh, one could ride shotgun with me, but yeah, the other two, I guess they'll have to straddle the railgun mounting. It'll be, uh, cozy up there.
Speaker 11:21
Jesus, there's barely enough room for me and Alice as it is. And if she suggests chucking any of the stowed kit, well, there's gonna be words. Harsh words.
