"We should be taking awver *his* business," grumbles Sloor. "Especially if he's spicy." Only a matter of time before he crashes and burns anyway... "What is it? Ryll? Glitterstim?"Mack repeats his question of Kessra, "How do you get in touch with Warrick Raden, just comlink him? Please explain the protocols or procedures for your dealings. We don't want to be shooting him from the beginning to make him understand we are taking over your business."

Sloor gives her a look: she's awfully eager all of a sudden... "And what's in it fawr you, Kes-Sra?""Com him and say that I gave you his number because you're looking for some work with Darga. That is what you're wanting, isn't it? Tell him that I recommended you and tell him 'Womp Rat,' it's a code word to show that you're genuine."
"Prawbably Ryll if he's jumpy," ponders the besalisk. "Glit-biters mawstly get happy... And frekking telepathic." Creepy stuff alright."I don't know," Kessra says in response to Sloor's question. "I never touch the stuff myself."
Sloor shrugs, looking mildly disappointed: "*Very *shawrt term gawl, but sure enawgh, Sra. AFTER awer little talk with Raden, awf cawrse." He pauses, considers her a while... "You want taw wark fawr us afterwards -- if you survive? We're gawing taw need sawmbawdy whaw knaws the... lawcal terrain in awer awrganisatian.""You let me go?" she says, a twinge of fear in her voice.
"Yes," Kessra says after a little bit of thought. "That sounds reasonable."
"Hey there, Raden man. You heard abawt the little incident at the cawrner awf Drasi and Imperatawr yet?" <He's referring to the "taxi" battle with the hover gang>A few seconds after Sloor calls his comlink, Raden activates his end of the line. "Yes?" he asks, his Devaronian accent sounding a bit weary at the moment.
