I have returned. I am sad though, where is my twi'lek friend?
I think based on our last builds and what happened in game I just need to drop Defensive slicing to be right by everything...

"5" stands by to describe the nature of the information they have found and its formats (some was correspondence, other more "forensic" in nature I believe.) He can describe himself if preferred but if Anatta is happy to talk to Valkyr, he will feed it to her.
"5" begins the process of working on digging out the speeder as Rae requested, confident the mechanic knows better than him what parts to salvage and use...
That speeder truck might work? Rae want to take a look? The droid hobbles away from the grasshopper wreckage warily, trying to get his servos and actuators to recalibrate from the jarring landing...
So it looks like we are wanting to land on the outskirts of Mos Eisley to attempt to make our way to the twins. Unless its possible for them to meet us not near a city...
The droid absorbs the commentary of his companions filing the information under "biologicals are strange". At Rae's suggestion "5" raises a finger in approval, I believe Mos Eisley is also the best chance we have of blending in. We might need to ditch the Grasshopper outside of the city and arrive by foot however?
Before Val sends the message... I agree. Rae should reach out to the twins and use her feminine wiles to convince the male to secret us back to our ship. The droid's tone is neutral, making it unclear if any amount of humor is intended... Noting that Val has spoken to them instead, I hope that they are as equally interested in hearing from you Valkyr. I have noted that many species seem intimidated by you as they learn about your skill set. I hope the twins, upon hearing of our actions, will continue to see us as non-threatening to their persons...
"5" clicks his fingers together for a few moments as he ponders the situation... SASSvTFF= S Hutts tend to not believe non-Hutts. We may have overextended our hand...I would not risk taking this information before Jabba directly. Perhaps his information broker would be the best solution?
The druid nods at Val approvingly. "5" punches a button on the nearest terminal to play the incoming message... -Posted with Wayfinder
"5" makes his way to the ship and does his best to start trying to make the thing "go"... SSA v FfT = 1S Honestly Rae I'm not sure what I can do here. I suppose if I think back to that time on the slave ship when you told me to use the hydrospanner as an arc bridge to the capicitor core that same tactic might work here... The bright roar of systems and engines whirring online come to life. Ah...I think I did it...I mean honestly you did it but I think I capably helped!
"5" looks over the control panel to the door, I can probably get this open but...what about the blaster on the other side?
SSSSSAvTTFTFT = 3S 3T
There is a surface ship. A KDY Grasshopper. Landing Pad...hmm a gun emplacement... "5" paws at the computer and there is the telltale sound of power shutting down as everything goes dark. Emergency lights flicker on throughout the complex as blast doors can be heard locking open before a loud klaxon sounds... The route is open, the laser should be powered down but uh...it is certainly now time to run.
I want to apologize in advance that my access will be spotty through the 4th of January. Basically my family is having some issues that require more attention than anticipated and additional issues of illness add to the complication. I will do my best to check in as I can but don't wait for me, I guess is what I am saying.
"5" watched appraisingly as Rae takes to the terminal. Excellent work Rae The droid reaches out and also begins manipulating the terminal to work on some more complex processes...
SSSSAASA v TTF = SSSSA About those droids... The droid continues to paw at the terminal quickly and efficiently... SSASAAAvTTTFTFTT= 2 Threat, 1 S
"5" shuffles out after the others and follows them into the workshop,
"5" rifles through the room and comes up with a bag and starts to scoop as many droid pieces as he can reasonably carry, "just in case". He also grabs the repair pack and looks at the weapons, Who should take what? I am surely the worst shot here...
"5" pauses as he hears the mechs moving about. Not wanting to initiate proceedings without his better armed companions the droid waits...
"5" appears slightly deflated, I was so hoping for an army of my own droid soldiers.... We should still see if we can find those cores. Regardless, yes pack us into crates I suppose.
An excellent idea Wex but I would like to review the droids themselves. Combat droids are generally given very specific leadership protocols, I would like to review their access information to see I could edit them.
"5" wonders if this information would be the sort that organics might "bristle at" but the droid merely marks the revelation of an armored escape pod as "priority". Feeling a bit overwhelmed for a moment an idea occurs to the droid, turning to the smugglers they seemed to be allying with, Is it possible for me to gain access to one of the storage containers you are transporting?
My EXTREME apologies for being absent the last few days. Crazy inter-family drama saw me having to go to the middle of nowhere for the Thanskgiving holiday and I got unexpectedly cut off from the universe. Very sorry.
"5" hustles to follow the others...
Oh my, I did not mean to hurt the poor guard...that is to say...we don;t want to hurt them right? The droid shuffles over to Rae and takes cover best he can as he talkes to his companion, We should look for communications. The Genosians are to be ordered to retreat no? Perhaps we should do that ourselves if nothing is coming in?
ASSASS v FTT = SSS Ah I see...
SSAvTF= S Following the Twi'lek's line of sight "5" continues to spray blaster fire in an effort to provide Rae cover should she choose to run...
3A v 2T - 1A "5" fires wildly hitting nothing of substance, the effect however, is moderately impressive and makes it seem that much more blaster fire is coming than might be reasonably assumed in the moment...
Sorry this thread didn't update for me on my main page and I missed the action, "5" deploys his blaster and moves to find some cover, firing rapidly in an effort to make the assault seem more impressive.
"5" lets his ocular inputs linger over Rae for a moment, "We" could always reach out to the twins...they might be willing to aid "us".
"5" bobs his head at the mechanic, It appears that Dimmock means to allow us to strike at Teemo. We should discuss how best to use this opportunity. Were those humans from last night going to *make* the delivery that Dimmock is sending?
We also have evidence that these transactions came at the expense of Genosian lives. The droid technician Sivor was...decapitated? I believe? during some aspect of these machinations? Drombb of Ryloth and Thweek of Teemo's employ exchanged correspondence on the matter. I would be happy to provide you with copies of the messages...
"5" waits for a response from the Genoisian, interested to see where this course of conversation takes them...
"5" plays the ever diligent droid for now and remains quiet...
So it looks like we lost Tok and so I am wodering what we should do? I feel like I keep stepping in to do some of the face stuff (like move convos along) but I don't have the character for it. It seems like our post rate has slowed pretty bad...so...what do we do?
Somehow I think its best that we don't give Ota every particular of what our conjectures may be. That said, he is correct, he probably could have sold us out many times if money was his only goal. I think we should all rest in our ways and talk to our next Duke. That conversation will probably fill at least a small gap or two.
"5" does his best to emulate "casual shrug", One can never be certain of such things but the information broker initiated a number of social gestures that indicated that Teemo was attempting to raise an army with characteristics like me. While my intellect is superior his other subtle gestures led me to believe he was interested purely in my physical form as a means of commentary and not my unique relationship with my programming.
"5" chitters his droid mandibles for a moment and then recounts the meeting with the duke and the information broker. As he sums up the various factoids the droid casts his optical inputs at the others in an indication that they can fill in any other details, I believe that our ability to articulate an affront to the Genoisians is assured. If we can leverage that affront into meaningful intelligence about a prospective droid army from the good Duke tomorrow, I am optimistic we will be successful beyond our initial expectations...
"5" activates the communication array, Ota.
We need to verify the shipments I assume...perhaps the Duke we mean to meet with tomorrow might know more? Perhaps if we unfold the revelations of Genosian deaths he will be forthcoming in any information he might have? It is not as though the Genosians are strangers to the use of droids in war...
What kind of evidence would Jabba require to ensure Teemo's downfall?
"5" nods at the information and looks to the others briefly before offering a piece of information in exchange, Teemo's servant Thweek is dead. Killed attempting to fulfill another mission for his master. This is perhaps useful to know, is it not? I can also tell you that Thweek had a relationship with Drombb of Ryolth?
