B-552: Merchant Freighter Spanial (Docked at Zarg’s World Highport), Common Room
The byplay continues:
“Unless you can think of a way to chase him? We would need to go incognito… We’d need to talk to Frederick.”
Frederick is presumably his boss.
The Legionnaire says, “well, I can’t fly into the Separatist Jump Zone without authorisation from Fleet Command,” he taps his uniform, “regs. I know this is a Vizierate mission but I’m still a Legionnaire.
“If you wanted to follow him to Nonoop, you’d need to find a civilian ship to take you and authorise them with whatever Vizierate rules bending you prunes can wrangle, just like the Vizierate found you and the others on this team.”
He actually doesn’t seem to be hinting.
He finishes with a shrug, “there might be other options.”
The Vizant appeals to Karmen and Lia, “Is anything else you can tell me to help me in my search?”
You’ve been passively watching, so does Lia have any ideas she’s willing to share before Karmen responds?
Not really. She wasn’t around to meet this guy so has no insight to offer about him or where he might have gone. It seems obvious to her that this might be a possible job for the ship but that’s not her call to make and she has some conflicting obligations right now.
Jetting off into Separatist Space sounds awesome but there is a certain person who has been waiting on Captree for rather longer than her patience usually allows. Not to mention that pesky crate and the payday from Zayaire…
This all flits through her mind as she turns to Karmen and raises her eyebrows in query.
