"Don't wanna pry too deep, but what's with the scars and implants? A job gone wrong, perhaps?" Caesar smiles softly.

"More or less." He says quietly. But after he takes another sip of his fruitshake, he continues.

"I thought I was good with booby traps and computers, and it was this arrogance that led to these injuries." He raises his mechanical hand and points at his scar. "It ended being quite painful, trust me. Made me more humble, though."

He takes another sip as Chief Eccite appears at your bar again.

"Hey, Arnold. About the reset, can we proceed already? It's really the only thing remaining we have to do before we continue with our repairs away from your bar."

"You guys are closing the bar?"

"No, but the synthol replicators will be offline for few minutes. Apologies for inconvenience."

"Oh." The white-haired youth looks into his half-full glass, examining it for something.

And then security console pings your station.

A) Ask Caesar if he needs another drink first.
B) "Sure."
C) Excuse yourself to check the sensors first.

"Sure."

"Great. It shouldn't take long." Eccite moves behind the counter and moves into command center.

"I hoped to order something before that, but do not worry, I can wait. Sorry for not saying earlier." Caesar sips his drink again.

A) "Are you a secret agent or something??"
B) "You said you've been humbled by the explosive experience, but you seem very young. Are you employed in your line of work for long?"
C) "I just remembered something: I had trouble contacting your ship."
D) "The replicators are still online. I could fix you a quick shot or two!"
E) Excuse yourself to check the security console!

"My security is pinging, one moment." Caesar nods in silent acknowledgement.

You move into the command center, where Eccite is busily typing away on the master computer.

You check the sensors station located nearby...

...its just the report of '99' undocking and heading for Gamma Urquaniii Jump Gate.

Grumbling, you return to the bar, ready to-

Quote
"Station wide notification. Life Support system have been put on maintenance mode. Non-essential equipment connected to Life Support system has been turned offline. Enjoy your stay."

Caesar looks at the speakers located in the corner and sips his drink.

"I hope that doesn't include oxygen pumps." He says with a smirk, as you check your synthol replicators - all of them flashing red diodes at you, and their control panels are all blank and dark.

A) "You said you've been humbled by the explosive experience, but you seem very young. Are you employed in your line of work for long?"
B) "Are you a secret agent or something??"
C) "I just remembered something: I had trouble contacting your ship."

Would be nice to have even a small clue why this guy is messing with IFF.

I figure at some point, you're just gonna run outta fucks to give and just off yourself whenever you get hurt at all. It's not like there's any downsides to it. Hangover? Suicide will fix that. Stubbed your toe? Suicide. Headache? Suicide. Papercut? Suicide.

"I just remembered something: I had trouble contacting your ship." Caesar smiles, and takes his time to reply.

"I do not have a subspace radio onboard." He shrugs. "Never felt the need to have one."

"And the IFF transponder, my sensors couldn't identify you."

"I would rather not be identified by civilian authorities." He waves dismissively. "Or the corporate ones."

Truly...

A) "You must be a secret agent of the government."
B) "You must be a super-soldier of the military."
C) "You must be a ninja-assassin-robot-spy."
D) "Weird."
E) "You should be careful, I could have shot a missile at you if I thought you were trying to steal my fuel."

No sense riling him up with what are probably out-there ideas.
