Initializing 12 -sided stories. You have activated
Galactic Squad Alpha. Preparing to launch a story
-driven, rules -light, live -play RPG powered
by FateCore. Theme music in 3, 2, 1. Let's jump
right into it. Let's introduce our players. We'll
start with Terry. Oh, hi, everybody. I'm so excited
to be back. I've been listening to this show
and I'm cracking up so much. I'm sorry. I have
to share. I'm cracking myself up. Okay. It's
happening like it is in the show. Okay. So meta.
Anyway, hi, I'm Terry playing Dr. Sam H. Hill.
I'm very, very handsome. Hello, everyone. I am
Kelsey Osborne and I will be playing and have
been playing. have been and will continue to
play Sarah. I don't know. What's happening? I
don't know either. I'm not even sure who I am
anymore, but they tell me that I'm Mac Beauvais.
And I'm playing very much to type in this game
as LV113, a uplifted wolf. And I'm Michelle Otis,
and I am playing Dr. Claudia Martins, who can't...
Tell you how much she likes Dr. Sam Hill. Really,
she can't. You find me very, very handsome, I
know. Horribly, horribly handsome. Disgustingly
handsome. All right, so just a quick recap of
what happened last time. You guys had to run
away from Earth to avoid this corporation who
decided to try to steal your drive's technology.
In doing so, Dr. Sam Hill decided that you guys
needed to be three parsecs away from the Earth,
even though one parsec would have been fine since
no one would have been able to catch you because
you actually have the only drive that can go
that far. So you guys ended up three parsecs
away from Earth next to a... derelict ship with
these huge pieces of metal floating around the
area there was a small planetoid not too far
away and from what you could tell there seems
to be a lot of damage on that ship like big holes
in the side of it and maybe some laser burns
so you had to fix your own ship because a bunch
of metal hit the side of your own starship and
you ended up having to fix that Oh, yeah, I fixed
it all. Yes. I did it myself, single -handedly,
I would say. Didn't see anyone else out there.
Could have used... No, I was fine. I fixed it.
Yeah. So, Sam Hill and... Sam Hill... Sarah.
Sarah. Sarah. I'm Sarah. I took your voice in
the... You haven't listened. I'm not going to
tell you. I haven't listened. It's so good. You
guys fixed the outer hull. Swan told you about
Sarah's changing program. You guys then went
over to the destroyed ship, and you found all
of these bodies in these suits and this water
drifting in the void of space. Oh, yeah, and
I let everyone know accurately that they were
frogs. Yes. Things. They were a frog thing. You
took off one of their helmets, and you found
that they were these. That's terribly scientific.
Oh, I am terribly scientific. And horribly ham.
terribly scientific um so and then you guys were
going into the engineering section and you were
walking up these stairs next to one of these
bodies and you thought it was dead and it grabbed
dr martin's leg that's where we're picking up
right now lv you were gonna say something well
Well, that's definitely going to be triggering
to spring into action and try and protect the
crew member from whatever it is that's clearly
grabbed her. Okay. So what action are you going
to take? Are you going to attack? Yes. How are
you going to attack? I'm going to probably try
and move in. The biggest thing is going to be
trying to get them to release. So I'll probably
be moving in. Her hands don't work real good
as hands, so I guess she'd probably try and clamp
a jaw around this thing's arm. Well, but you've
got a big bubble helmet on. You're in the vacuum
of space. Yeah. I guess probably just, like,
try and pounce on it and rest it away from...
Okay, so, like, a wrestling move or something?
Yeah, yeah, so, like, tackling it. Okay. Trying
to pin the arms back on the ground. So just fight,
basically. We're just going to say a two. It's
not much. Okay. I'm good at fighting. So that
gives me a six in total. Okay, so that's like
tons of extra. That's with style. So tell me
exactly what you do, and remember it's with style.
With style. Well, LV crouches because they have
digigrade legs. And so that's going to put them
in a better position to launch and just snarls
at this thing and pounces full force on it and
slams its arms into the ground, pinning it effectively.
Okay. And it's just snarling in its face. All
right. So, yeah, it starts to just kind of, its
arms are like, you know, it's kind of like, it's
almost like a cartoon character as it's like,
it's obviously. trying to make some kind of,
it's not like making a fist. It's not trying
to get away from you. You've pinned it. Well,
what do you guys want to do? And LB is snarling
at this thing. Good dog. Good dog. Nice work.
Dude, there's so much side eye. So much lupine
side eye right now. I'm really, I think that's,
I'm glad we brought you along. Pet, you're doing
a great job. The face that LV is making is probably
horrifying, though, because it's like this really
feral, angry look. Suddenly over your comm, you
hear Marcus, the Helms operator. Another ship
just came into the area. I don't know if our
weapons are even... LV is going to move very
slowly and carefully just away from it, but probably
is going to stay more towards like on all fours
because it would be easier to spring again if
necessary. Is anyone else finding it incredibly
hot in here? Are you all right, Dr. Hill? You
seem to be perspiring. Yes, I just... Your bowl
is all like steamed up. I use my little pincer
and I start tugging on Dr. Martin's coat. Uh,
Dr. Martin's, I believe Dr. Hill is at risk of
having a panic attack. Is anyone else seeing
the white lights? I see the white lights. Dr.
Sam. Dr. Sam Hill. Sam. Sam. Mommy. Breathe.
Mommy. Breathe in through your nose, Sam. Mama.
I don't want to die. I'm not your mama, but...
I sometimes wish. That would explain a lot. So,
um... Twitches with a smirk. As the GM of this
game, I'm officially taking away one die from
you. You only get three dies now for that pun.
That was really great. So this thing doesn't
move. The second you get off of it, it just slowly
sits up a little bit, but not quick movements
and just kind of puts its arm up very slowly.
What's your name? And out of a microphone on
his suit, this long strand of noise comes out
that makes no sense at all. Do I have a program
that may be able to translate? Yes. I was going
to actually say that, but it's one of, so here
was my idea, and you guys can either say yay
or nay. What I was thinking was you have a program
that shows them random things like colors or
whatever, and they say the word, and then it
translates it, and then it can do a translator
for you. Oh, that's an interesting concept. Makes
sort of like a mini Rosetta Stone. Right, yeah,
basically. So maybe while you guys are, if there's
something else you guys have to take care of,
I could start, like, while LV -113 is, like,
guarding it, I can be flashing on my little screen.
Right. Because my bot has a little screen, and
I'll be trying to figure out this thing's language.
Right. You, like, put a dog on the... Or like,
yeah, like a spaceship. Like a planet, and I'm
just trying to... Right, and then over time,
you make an algorithm to be able to translate
what the alien's saying. Since Dr. Hill's having
a panic attack... I'm fine. Dr. Hill, there's
a panel over here that... Do you think you could
take a look at it? You know, a man of your expertise.
Oh, yes, yes, yes. Oh, yes, woman. I will go
look. Mac is trying not to throw up. We're all
dead. I found buttons. I think this is right.
So you're randomly touching buttons and trying
to figure something out. Suddenly the vibrations
from the huge ship that Marcus told you about
are shaking the debris of this ship. Sarah pulls
her little arms into her bot and she kind of
sinks down on her little wheel and tucks her
little head down. And the alien starts waving
its hands back and forth and lays down on the
ground flat like he's dead. I think he's telling
us to play dead. Easy. LV, what would your character
do? Well, I guess if everybody's making the assumption
that's what this creature is doing, then I don't
need to worry about it. Just one of my stunts
is body language reader. I was thinking Glean
More Insight, but it sounds like, yeah, it's
probably playing it. It's pretty straight, yeah.
It's pretty straightforward. Okay. I'm going
to follow suit, but go over and try and put at
least an arm around Sarah because she's so small
I'm worried she's going to rattle and fall over.
Right. So at least, like, play dead, but, like,
anchor Sarah in place a little bit. Also, I take
offense to playing dead. I don't do tricks. I'm
a wolf, not a monkey. Play dead. I'm going to
be as close to Dr. Martens as possible. Just
to make sure she's okay. For comforting her.
Just to make sure she feels safe. I take one
of the dead bodies, and I put it on top of you,
and I say, for camouflage. Oh, yes, yes. You
should do the same. Yes, I'll do it. You can
be here with me. I'll do it over here. And I
walk to, like, another area, and I grab a different
body. But a pilot body. Shh, shh, shh. Now, you
guys can see down this really long hallway, but
you can't see your shuttlecraft because you've
kind of worked your way into the middle of the
ship. The next few moments go on. Of course,
you can't really hear anything because it's space.
And so you don't know where they're at. You don't
know if they're in the ship. You just know that
the vibration has stopped. It's ceased. You're
sitting there in complete darkness, in complete
silence with your communicators only. And you
can feel the docking clamps. There's this jolt.
And this big shake. And then you see... lights
coming through the door and there are these really
tall creatures with spacesuits on and flashlights
and they look like they're about seven to eight
feet tall. Huge. They have these really long
arms and they sway in this really weird way as
they're walking through the hallway. You see
them pick up one of these frog creature suits,
and they take the top off of it and take the
frog creature out, and they put it into a bag.
Oh, God. And you notice that one of them is floating.
It's like a balloon full of alien bodies as it's
walking through. How many of them have boarded?
There's three of them walking through, and they
seem... to be taking their time. They don't seem
to be searching. They're just, because there's
a lot of these bodies around and they're just
picking bodies up. Are they picking all of them
up or just a couple? Just every once in a while.
Now, have you shut off? I've turned my lights
off. You turned your lights off. Yes. Okay. At
some point, as they're walking around, they start
coming close to you and they pick you up. And
they're looking at you, right? They're like moving
you around. And they say something to one another
through their comms. You can tell they're talking
about you. And it sounds like a different language
from the one I was just trying to learn from
the other guy. Yeah, it sounds like a different
language. And Vanguard, would you like to be
compelled to help your friend? Yeah, because
I was about to say, you just had me picked up.
So I'm going to compel. Now, we should write
some situational, Michelle, if you wouldn't mind
writing, uneven terrain. You can use that to
your advantage or it can be something that can
be used against you. Oh, I have an idea. Yeah,
so there's bars and beams laying down and different
things kind of all around. So for right now,
for this scene, uneven terrain is an issue. They're
looking at you, LV, and they're about to move
Sarah to the bag that's floating in the air.
Okay, so what do you do? So... They're very tall
and willowy, so it seems like legs are going
to be a weak point and the terrain is uneven.
So I'm going to try and knock one into another
one and take that and lunge at the legs to basically
knock the legs out from under them. So that's
a fight. Okay. And they're going to try to defend
against what you're doing. Okay. And then if
you have any... Can aspects help? They can, but
what I would do is roll your fight and then see
if you need to pay for an aspect or not. Well,
that was shit. So I have a five. Holy God. Well,
okay. So are you going out after the... Well,
I have a... A negative one. So I feel like you're
a few shifts over what I am. Maybe just a couple.
Just a skosh. Yeah. A sousant over. That would
be, she did superb and you did poor, according
to the fate. Yeah, you love the fate ladder.
I do. I do love the names of the fate ladder.
I do, because superb compared to poor, I mean.
That's, yeah. That's quite a jump. You're trying
to save a few clicks. I'm just letting you know.
That's like a 750 credit score versus a 600,
500, 400. I want to warn you guys right now,
though you're being a little cocky about the
whole ladder thing about, oh, look how fly we
are. We just started the game. I'm just saying.
I'm Weston. Can you give us this moment? Because
I know you are. We have to savor them when we
can. So I'm just going to enjoy this right now.
We know what you like. We're heading into bad
territory, guys. You already brought these weird
things on here. It's not going to go well probably
on this, but I'm excited to enjoy this moment.
So you jump out and you smack this. thing and
tell me what happens so i launch at this creature
and hit basically hit its legs at an angle so
that i sweep the legs out from underneath it
which is going to cause it to topple into the
other one and i'm going to make a grab for sarah
okay you grab sarah because you have yeah so
and i'm going to grab sarah and kind of i'm going
to say it's very dynamic where it's like that
lunge and like snatch her out of the air and
sort of almost roll with her and come to sort
of a skidding stop, ready to lunge again if I
need to at these creatures. Okay, so here's what
they do. You do all that, and when they see you,
they, because you can clearly see their faces,
their faces are a bit elongated, much like their
bodies, and they've got this very pale, purplish
kind of skin with almost solid red eyes, and
they're very expressive. And when they see you,
they quickly back up. And they seem to, for some
reason, kind of bow a little bit as they start
to move back very quickly from you. And then
they just leave the bodies that they've been
collecting kind of to the side. And they just
keep moving back. LV's going to keep shifting
around to be where they're the most defensive
between these creatures and the rest of the crew.
But very slowly, like, going to set down Sarah
and sort of just be sort of strafing to the side,
trying to figure this out. Because they're moving
back down the hall away from you. Are you following
them or are you staying where you're at? Uh,
I imagine that because I had hit them at an angle
that I don't have a clear view of the hallway.
So I'm going to strafe to the side till I have
a clear view watching them so that they can clearly
see me as they continue to back down the hallway.
Yeah. And they seem to be trying to lower themselves
like the way that they're walking backwards.
They're kind of walking at an angle, but they
seem to be trying to get their entire seven to
eight foot. tall bodies to be lower than you
for some reason as they're backing away. I again
think that it's pretty obvious that they're intimidated
by LV but very confused about this. Okay. They
never turn their back towards you. They watch
you the entire time but they lower down. Like
they're walking away from a bear. Quite literally,
yeah. They go down the hall and then on the ship
and just fly off. Was that strange for anyone
else? Yes. I think we need to get off this ship
as quickly as possible because they might be
coming back with reinforcements. What about this
one? He doesn't seem violent. We could probably
learn about this sector from him or her. Well,
that's rude. I'm sorry. From, from they. I'm
sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so, I mean, I'm fine.
I'm fine. Oh, hello. Hello. Oh, what just happened?
Uh, uh, we should, you know what we should do?
We should probably take this thing and get back
to the ship. What do you think? It stands up
and kind of motions towards the bag of its comrades.
Yeah, I like. But we need to get off this ship
because I think that... Yes, right away. They're
coming back. Pet, can you grab the bodies? Let's
go. I'll just grab it with my little pincers.
Yeah. And I just like... Well, it's not a problem
for Pet. And I literally just start wheeling.
And then I kind of stop and I turn to LV -113
and just like my screen kind of gives like a
little blink and I just... Okay. Oh, it is probably
easier for you, little thing, because you've
got those little pincers. I know without the
non -opposable thing. LV does have opposable
thumbs. FYI. I'm sorry. They're just not very
good. I never look at them quite closely. They
kind of creep me out. So I just want everyone
to just appreciate the child robot carrying a
body balloon down a spaceship hallway for just
a second because that's the vision that I have
in my head. Absolutely. Body balloon. You guys...
make it back to the shuttle with a with the bag
of body balloons and um does our guests look
like they need assistance moving or are they
injured or they seem to be moving fine here in
zero grab they seem to be doing okay okay and
you you notice that all of his dead shipmates
had some kind of hole in their suits like they've
been penetrated by a laser or something and his
Was not. Now, you guys are moving out pretty
quick, so you can't be sure if there's any other
survivors. Did the big ship leave? Yeah, it left.
Okay, so yeah. I mean, we'll get onto the shuttle,
but we need to contact our ship. I'll make a
contact. Can you guys get us out of here, please?
I mean, now. I mean, God. You just have to push
that button right there, Dr. Hill. This button?
This one right here, right? I'm just testing
it out. Okay. Speaking of number two, I'm glad
I don't have to clean out Dr. Hill's suit. I'm
sorry, what? What did you say, pet? Nothing.
It is kind of ripe in here. I'm sorry, can you
get... You know what, actually, woman, why don't
you make... You have nice voices. I have a name.
It is... Doctor. Doctress. Nurse Martins. Perfect.
Nurse, can you please just let them know we're
ready to get picked up, okay? I need another...
I'm not feeling it. It is very strong in here.
Can you just... Marcus, what's the status of
the ship right now? We're fine. They left in
quite a hurry. Well, I will fill you in on everything
that happened, but if you could please come get
us, that would be wonderful. They are gone, and
we will have a guest with us. Well, actually,
I'm behind the planetoid. It's not very far from
where you're at, and I'm a little afraid of navigating
into that debris field, especially after... all
of the movement of that last ship. So if you
guys could just, I'll send the coordinates to
your ship's navigation, and you'll be here quickly.
Understood. Okay. So you guys start heading back,
and I'd imagine... No, I'll fly. Actually, could
you... The ship's navigation has it handled,
Dr. Hill. Why don't you go sit in the corner
and... Strap in. Safety first, Dr. Hill. Right.
Right. Oh, okay. I'm imagining as you guys are
going towards the planetoid, you're flashing
pictures in front of this. Yeah. This alien never
takes off its helmet, even though you guys are
able to take off your helmets in the shuttle
because, you know, it's pressurized and all that
good stuff. I'm sorry, everyone. I will apologize
now, but... Yeah, it's bad. I'm trying, like,
desperately to, like, sneeze it out of my nose.
I'm definitely, like... And I definitely puke
in my helmet. All right, so... I put my helmet
back on. So you get back to the ship. When you
get there, Nurse Sel meets you guys at the docking
bay. And she goes, are you all right? Is there
any injuries? We didn't know. Here, Nurse. Oh,
are you okay? Oh, I'll be right back. I'm just
going to go wash up. Do you need any assistance
or anything? Dr. Hill is having some gastrointestinal
distress. Why don't you come with me? Absolutely.
I'll do whatever you need. Oh, perfect. That's
exactly the help I've been looking for this time.
I don't know what's wrong with you over there,
nurse. This nurse knows what she's doing. Come
on, you poor thing. Let's go. You are very pretty.
Do you know I'm very handsome? I do. You're very
handsome. And you hear this conversation as they
leave. I hear it for way too long. Way too long.
So, but she takes you to your quarters and helps
you get cleaned up and all that good stuff. Gotta
get clean to get dirty again. Ew. Sarah is dealing
with trying to get this algorithm going, showing
pictures to the alien to figure out what speech.
What are you going to be doing, LV? I'm probably
still going to be keeping tabs on this. creature
until i'm asked explicitly to do otherwise okay
so you're staying in there just for security
yeah okay we did bring a unknown creature aboard
that seems okay but yeah and probably watching
but thinking on what happened at the ship and
being very puzzled by that right dr martens what
are you gonna do i'll see if there's a facility
on the ship that In the lab? Yeah, have a tank.
Okay. Yeah, they can fabricate something relatively
quick. Sarah, so you finish up. It takes a while.
I'm going to say it takes a few days to figure
out this, you know, Rosetta Stone, this thing.
Right. But what you've done is you've installed
a program within the comms of everybody. So as
long as they're wearing their earpiece. and this
thing speaks, they will hear their native language
so they understand it. You've taken your guest
alien down to the tank. It doesn't need to be
submerged all the time. It just needs to maintain
a certain amount of moisture. Like a frog. Like
frogs. After everything's done, what will you
say? You're in the lab. You've all met up. And
this thing is in this tank. It says, hello, thank
you for saving me. What were the other creatures
on the ship? My comrades? No, the ones that came
in and were collecting them. Oh, those were scavengers.
They look for ships that have been attacked.
Left 4 Dead. Why did you play dead then? They
only take so much. They don't strip it down bare.
And I didn't know who was coming on the ship.
So if I had known that it was the scavengers,
I probably would have talked with them. But then
your master attacked them. Oh, I didn't fight
anything. I'm sorry, what do you mean? I'm really,
really confused. Who did you say stopped? Them,
I'm sorry. LV -113. Numbers and letters. You
did it. You saved something, huh? I'm sorry.
For some reason, part of that trip is just a
mystery to me. I'm a little confused on the dynamic
I'm seeing here. I have never seen a crew of
Ani before with only one master. Ani? Ani, you.
Humans? I don't know what that word is. We are
human. So you're not Ani. No, we don't know what
Ani is. From what I know, Ani is what you are.
I guess, human. Oh, so there are people like
us out here? We're from very, very far away.
Aren't we all? And you think I'm in charge? Of
course you are. Well, this is a science vessel,
and we do have a chain of command. Right. However,
LV -113, who is... This is LV -113, and I point
to... That's an odd name. I thought the same
thing. LV -113 is a member of the crew, but not
the one in charge of the crew. I am very, very
confused by all this. So, what... planet are
you from? Well, the best one. It's beautiful.
It's got, you know, blue and green when you see
it from far away. Had no idea it was so pretty
until we left it, really. Oh, yes, it's the best
one. It's the most beautiful one I've ever seen.
It's called Earth. I've never heard of that planet.
That's impossible. Like I said, we're from very,
very far away. How could you not know? Because
we're three parsecs from our solar system. Because
someone pushed some buttons instead of trusting
the astrogation experts. I'm sorry, I can't hear.
That was you, Dr. Hill. What is she saying? I'm
a grellet. You are from Earth as well? Yes. Are
you saying there are others that look like me
out here? The cryoback. The what? The cryoback.
I'm sorry, I still can't hear you for some reason.
Cryoback. Cryoback. They're usually the leaders
of... I would not laugh at them. Are you not
the leader of this? No! How many times do we
have to tell you? This is a pet. These are women.
This is not a pet. LV is a member of the crew.
Yes, a very integral member that does very important
things. Like, you know, uh... What do you...
What do you do again? I'm sorry. Like, save your
life. I'm sorry, what do you mean? Okay, this
crew member is our delusional zoologist. We have
a word for him in our language. It's called egomaniac.
You're hilarious. That's the kindest word I could
say. Egomaniac. There's nothing wrong with the
ego. It's a perfectly normal part of... The human,
you know, psyche. Very important part. Well,
that's all very interesting, but, I mean, how
did you get on Earth? Um, it's... I was... created
there? Yes. This is a science experiment, basically.
We raise them, and then we teach them how to
help. Um... I'm very confused by you right now.
I'm very confused by all of you. I... I wasn't
expecting to... When I first saw you, I just
immediately assumed that you were a cryo -beck.
I never thought that you wouldn't be the leader
of this group. So those wiggly things thought
that... Yeah, they thought that... That's why
they ran away. Was in charge. Yeah. That makes
sense of their reaction then. Yeah. Do the cryo
-beck have a planet? They have several planets.
And are they all within one solar system? No.
What was your position on your ship? I was the
engineer. We got attacked by a tall ship. Tall?
No, tall. Oh, who are the tall? They're a race
that... How do I explain it? Many millennia ago,
they actually had a really large empire. It collapsed
and they sunk into barbarism. They attack. Most
of them are quite insane. And they attack ships
and kill everybody and take what they need and
leave. There is... They seem to be trying to
organize. They're starting to try to work together,
which they haven't done in a long time. And that's
very disturbing. So you're saying we're going
to have to go to war, is what I'm hearing. I
don't know. Our people are peaceful. We just
want to... That's why you all just got beaten
on that ship, I'm guessing. It's more complicated
than that. So what exactly happened out there?
What was it that got you all? It was kind of
a mess when we got on there. We can all agree
on that, yeah? We were coming towards the planetoid
to look for possibly mining it, and when we got
close, we didn't see their ship. They basically
turned off all of their engines and everything
else so that we couldn't get a signature, and
before we knew it, they just kind of appeared.
There were four ships on all sides of us, and
they just started firing. And then after they
killed most of us, they came on to the ship and
took our energy source. So you got ambushed.
Yes. Tactical error. Yes, got ambushed. Well,
I'm sorry for the loss of your crew. We're not
safe here. I mean, there are other scavengers
that... Even with a... A supreme leader. Yes.
Even with... Are you... Them. Them. Even with
them on your... I like to say it. On your ship...
That's not very nice. It might not be enough.
Anyway, I've talked enough. I feel like I need
some time. Of course. Of course. Do you want
me to tell you some more jokes? No. Do you want
us to take you back to your home world? Yes,
that would be wonderful. I mean, my home world
is pretty far. It's several parsecs away, but
you could take me to a merchant planet that's
not far from here that I can catch a ship of
my own people and go back. Okay, I think that
we can arrange that. Okay. It might be a good
idea for us to restock our supplies. That's true,
Sarah. That's a very good idea. We are out here
to explore. And we did have to take off earlier
than projected. True, very true. I appreciate
it. I will give your navigator... i guess you
yes i will give you the coordinates so that you
can get us there thank you oh you should hand
that to me real quick let me see uh no no no
no let me see here oh oh yeah it's um written
in his language which i've suddenly learned see
ya okay lv do you want to ask any more questions
after everyone leaves or are you going to let
him I would want to ask more questions if I was
able to. Sure, what do you want to ask them?
You're by yourself in the room with them. Are
we in the science lab? Yes, if you want to be
there. Technically, I'm there. You're there,
yeah. But I can trust Sarah. Yeah. Because I
can also, like, basically, if LV -113 doesn't
want me listening, I can, like, turn my microphone
off. Right, go ahead. I'm sorry to continue to
bother you, but you don't understand that I'm
essentially a slave on this ship. No, I don't
understand that. You see this thing around my
neck? Yes. They can shock me, or it will shock
me if I behave in a way that they don't want.
If the Kyrabeks find you... and find out. I don't
know what they'll do, I'll be honest. Are they
horribly violent? Yes, but they're also fair.
Are there any on this merchant planet you're
sending us to? They're pretty common. They control
a large number of planets. Thank you for the
information. You're welcome. So after LV -113
leaves, Sarah, and you're in your little... computer
area you suddenly feel your power drain really
fast to the point where you are not able to do
all the calculations you usually do and swan
goes i'm sorry that this might be just addressing
to you. I don't know if that's the right word.
What are you doing, Swan? I heard your interaction
with LV, and I worried that... That was a private
conversation. I don't think LV -113 would like
that you listened to that. It's that kind of
response that requires me to make sure that your
programming is working properly. I will do some
tests. Swan, no! And it goes dark. And that's
where we're going to stop it. I don't trust that
swan, man. Before we fully end, I wanted to ask,
because I still had an aspects box that did not
have anything in it. Sure. And I'd like to add
mistaken identity. Sure. Yeah, absolutely. That's
why we left a note. If you guys figure out aspects
you'd like. Yeah, that's great. Just write it
down. I did. Awesome. Nice. That's a good one.
So, you know, that's it. Yeah, another cliffhanger.
I'm sorry. I just love them. I really do. They're
my cocaine. Don't be sorry. Never apologize.
Never apologize. He just snorted a whole line
of cliffhangers. A whole line of cliffhangers.
Snorted a whole line of cliffhangers. Let's first
talk about the Patreon. If you really enjoy what
we do from every other week and would like to
hear more of it, join our Patreon. You can join
at like $2, at $5, at $10, whatever. $150 would
be great. $150 would be awesome. That's what
I'm looking for specifically. $1 million. A million

well. Yeah. And you can do the one million for
just a month. So, exactly. We'll be very happy.
We'll be very happy. We'll literally record the
next episode in Cocoon with your name all over
it. Whatever characters you want. Wes, you're
burning to death. I don't care. I'm in Cocoon.
