Tag Pt 3
Ledo glances up at one of the internal cameras that Fritz uses as his eyes in the ship and gives a subtle nod. Just a quick slight tilt up and down as he stares at the camera and then he continues the nodding as he faces to address the Lieutenant.
"I have no problem turning him over so long as I can get the bounty for him. We haven't been able to check but I suspect there's some kind of system reward for bringing these pirates in and given the amount of repairs I'm facing, every credit helps.
As for the other guy...don't know. Found a cryopod drifting in the debris. Seems like he was in cryo for a long time and has some serious freezer burn. The plan is to let him recover and go from there. If he has family, bring him back. If he's on his own, offer him a place on the ship until he figures out what he wants to do."
He pauses and leans in close.
"You've heard the stories of people who spent too long in cryo, right? They get picked up, the records are so out of date they just come back "unknown" on the bio scans and they've got no memory of who they are or where they're from. It's a really awful thing, you know? Well I found him, I feel responsible for him to get him back on his feet. Probably better earning an honest wage than clogging up the welfare system, right?"
He tried to keep the movement casual but once or twice his eyes flicked up towards the camera hoping that if Fritz somehow missed his nod that he would be able to follow along and act accordingly."</blue></b>
