Flight 001 ~ [Dictated]

[syndicswillpay]

[Captain John Geary has been here for a few hours. He's gleaned enough information that the journal might be some sort of communications device, so he clears his throat before speaking.]

This is Captain John Geary, Commander of the Alliance Fleet, [A standard opening. If this was some sort of trick, he might as well seem professional.]

I, uh... I have no idea where I am, but if this is some sort of Syndic trick...

[He trails off. This just felt weird.]

Is there anyone from the Alliance out there? Or does anyone know Captains Tanya Desjani and Roberto Duellos?

...And if someone could explain where I am.

[A pause, there, and another throat clearing.]

To the honour of our ancestors. Geary out.

Sort of. [There's records that state the beginnings of spaceflight are well-routed in naval travel.]

I command a space fleet.

[Luckily, she has just spoken to someone about "space travel" recently, so he won't get a confused pause in response. Unfortunately, he will get this as a response:]

Ah, so you know the mouse people, then?

[syndicswillpay]

[This, however, does illict a confused response from Geary]

Mouse people?

[ex_avenged224]

Yes, the mouse people -- one of them explained to me that they, too, use ships that travel the space between worlds.
