The Epsilon Drone Hive was somewhat bored, what with there still not being an efficient government to take care of them, or other such things, like, reasonably maintanance etc.
Yet, they were fairly active, playing silly games, flirting (As much as a semi- sentient drone can flirt, anyway), and occasionally witnessing the evnts down on the ground, on earth.
And today, they saw something reasonably interesting.

<ORD 012/02> Oh, there you are, it was about time. Seein' this?
<ORD 015/05> Yeah. Fascinating. Another launch? Why are you bothering me?
<ORD 012/02> Check out the tactical data. On the nation in question, I mean.
<ORD 012/02> And while I'm at it, the ships.
* OCD 046/04 laughs her ass off.
* OCD 046/04 wonders why the fuck the engineers in this third world spacedy nations always use popular, yet ludicrous science fiction for their designs.
* OCD 046/04 slaps Neoma's engineers around a bit with a bomb pumped graser.
<OSD 042/05|Renate> RAWR! GRASER!
<OCD 046/04> Shaddup. Anyway, I mean... Their economy is what? World average?
<ORD 012/02> Yeah. Well, I guess they like their people starving to death. On another note... Does anyone know why they use this designs? I mean, not being a Galaxy- spanning empire makes it hard building that shit...
<OCD 046/04> No idea. Anyway...
<ORD 015/05> Woah... looks like they consider this fleet to be small.
<All> EH?
<ORD 015/05> Well, numerically, they are kinda correct...
<OCD 046/04> Well, they do look shiny.
<All> Star destroyer, shiny?
<OCD 046/04> Well, apart from those...
<ORD 012/02> And there they come... 12k kilometers distance. We get a nice, shiny look...
<ORD 015/05> Is that... Rust?
<ORD 012/02> I sure hope not. Aaaaaaaaanyway. How's it going at home?
<OSD 042/05|Renate> Business as usual. Lotsa fighting. Looks like the genocidal maniacs are winning.
<All> Ewww.
<ORD 015/05> Still better than... Huh? Where are they?
<ORD 012/02> Some FTL/hyperspace/whatever jump, I guess. Geez, we need maintenance. Anyway...
<ORD 015/05> Whatever, I'm in single mode, again. Stupid operators want some specialised work.
<All> cya!

Indeed, every day, something new and intriguing happened... For now, they would need to wait for a few hours until something interesting would happen, though.
