User blog:Spikewitwicky/March 12, 2019 - Spike's Journal Entry



I'm aboard the Federation, In another 'win' for EDC, we managed to rescue a potential new ally. I kid you not, his name is Dirk Manus. He arrived in his ship - trying to deliver aid supplies. I've encountered a few aliens in my life. But I have never seen one so nearly identical to ours. I kid you not, he came aboard wearing a cowboy hat. It's almost TOO ideal. I mean, it would sort of be like a Russian defector arrive in New York City wearing a New York Yankees cap and waving an American flag.

I'm trying to repair his shuttle now, but things are going kinda slow because... well, I've never SEEN their tehnology before. Marissa seems smitten with the guy. To the point where when I started asking basic questions - like basic BASIC questions... how did you know about the blockade, where did you get the supplies, she seriously thought I was jealous of Dirk, and she even dropped a "you're twice my age" line on me. Has she honestly thought during those times when we were just BSin' or shooting the breeze, she thought I was hitting on her?! I'm thankful for the time away from everyone right now. Just work on his ship. Hopefully, Crosscut can dig up some information on his planet, or even him. I know soon, I will have to work with Marissa as "one" - the voice of EDC. But honestly, right now, I don't even want to talk to her. I didn't realize how easily she can piss people off.
