Got another weird one for you. Well, two weird ones.

Weird Thing the First: several tachyon bursts a short distance from Vanguard approach vector Delta. No set pattern, but they came in groups. I can't tell you what <em>kind</em> of tachyons, because we're basically down to using tin cans and twine up here.

Weird Thing the Second: got two more feeds reflected off the drive. Slightly different color spectrum than the last one but similar characteristics. Still no idea what they mean. But they occurred about fifteen minutes after Weird Thing the First.

I'm getting spooked. We should re-think using approach vector Delta. I realize it has the safest approach into the system, and puts Vanguard close to a serviceable landing site, but I'm really not sure that we want our first entry into Zorica to be right next to weird random energy signals. We should bring this up to them before the Vanguard launches next month.

Can you pull some strings and get some better equipment reassigned to my team? This is your colleague Sigrid asking, not friendly-and-sometimes-naked-drinking-buddy Sigrid, by the way.

No worries on Emily. You were clear about it when we started things. I think you know my feelings on that whole deal (and she's giving you &quot;conditions&quot; after all her crap? Psssht). But still, good luck with that. Let me know if you change your mind. The boys up here are dull and far too skittish for me.

Sigrid:

Still no idea. Crypto says the underlying patterns in these last two are different than the first one, but they still aren't convinced it's anything more than background noise.

I'll ask about equipment, but don't hold your breath. Everyone's focused on trying to scout out the planets for habitable sites. Everything good has already been requisitioned.

RE: Emily - I know, I know, but she promises it'll be different this time. We have so much history together that I can't just walk away. Yes, she has conditions and rules and whatnot, but that's what relationships are all about, right? Compromise? You and I did pretty good with the friend thing before we did the other thing. Can we just go back to that?
