The Red Queen grinned at Var and said, "Thanks for reminding me Var. You are right, of course, even though it is completely impossible to prevent radiating heat entirely I forgot that the empire doesn't have black body differential detectors." Nor would they now that half of Sovira was a blasted wasteland along with the nearly impossible technology and the scientists who had created a device that could accurately detect minor differences in heat readings up to a few light minutes out. Well too bad, so sad for the meat bags in the Imperium huh?<br/><br/>Her anger at the Imperium along with sadness at the thoughts of home and the state it was in nearly made her growl until she heard those gloriously satisfying words from Mulika, "Oh Mulika the dulcet tones of your voice are a mellifluous balm to my troubled mind. Especially when you bring such glacéed music to my auditory cortex." Her loquaciousness was in full force as she flirted a little bit with the woman.<br/><br/>Just before she was able to say more Brigitte brought something important to her attention. "I hear you Brigitte, that's useful information even if it isn't quite as pleasing to hear. V, when we fire our warning shot don't use that tube. In fact just pretend it doesn't exist for now and everyone with null-g experience can decide if they want to volunteer to help you out later."<br/><br/><br/>She looked out at the ship, okay she looked at the sensors and equipment that was showing the ship and cleared her throat delicately. "In any case if she really is Solar Queen then all the hacking and bribes paid off and our quarry is sitting pretty just waiting for us to come on over and take what we want. Bring the engines and power up to full and and bring us in." She paused and looked to the rest of her ladies, "So real space navigation, tangle operators, and weapons are busy so would any of you like to try your hand at a polite, but firm, request that our new friends over in Solar Queen or shall I present my own special blend of over the top theatrics?"
