With but a thought R-LE switches its vocabulator from the languid basic language it had been using to a high-baud rate binary language more appropriate to information exchange amongst droids. R-LE-1 addresses the yellow droid in a series of low-pitched chirps and buzzes; "Thank you for coming so quickly my friend. Please be patient with the organics; a situation has recently arisen that necessitated unusual security precautions be taken in docking bay three. It's likely that all routine maintenance and repair work on this level has been temporarily delayed. I'm sure normal operations will resume once this shuttle has departed."The patina stained droid places a hand gently on the back of R3's lamp-shade shaped head to direct his attention to the tri-wing shuttle at the center of the bay as he begins guiding the astromech towards it. "Speaking of which, I have been asked to pilot this vessel on a secret mission on behalf of the Rebel Alliance. Speed is of the utmost importance in this mission. The destination is in uncharted system deep in wild-space and I would appreciate your assistance in calculating the hyperspace transit locus to ensure the shortest travel time possible. I've already begun work on the code..." R-LE-1 will begin sharing its astrogation calculations with the astromech droid to gain its help (hopefully gaining a +2 to its own astrogation check) while he walks around the shuttle performing his pre-flight inspection.Once satisfied with the state of the vessel and its modifications R-LE-1 will enter the shuttle looking for Jaess, the deck-officer and the equipment he requested. Upon spotting them R-LE will greet the pair; "Hello again miss Talori. Sir. I am R-LE-1 and this is my friend R3-L7. He is helping me with the astrogation calculations for our flight." Once the patina stained droid locates the datachips he requisitioned, he picks them up and attaches one to his hip mounted scomp-link without pausing. While he continues to talk, he will begin encrypting, compressing and downloading all his memory files and personality algorithms. "Sir, since this vessel would be recognized as Imperial property on sight I would be curious to learn when and under what circumstances it was first acquired by the Alliance. This information may prove crucial to our mission." The patina stained droid  pauses and tilts its head in an inquisitive manner. "Also, does it currently have a name?"</blockquote>
