Bending down to examine the crate and its contents he asks: "What is it exactly?" Assuming it's fresh food fit for nemoidian consumption, Derek will transmit a signal to its counterpart aboard the freighter. The HRD requests that the probot remotely instruct one of the medical droids to collect and deliver a canister containing an appropriate amount of bacta to the rodian out in the hangar bay (say a few hundred milliliters depending on the approximate value of the crate). The medical droid is then to collect and carry the crate into the freighter's galley on its return trip.Seeing that the cargo has been successfully transferred to the freighter, Derek turns to watch as the last of the medical droids trundle their way up the vessel's entry ramp. Turning back towards the venerable station custodian, the human replica droid motions towards the empty freighter and cargo pod. "She's all yours. Take good care of her; she's a good ship who's seen us through a few tough scrapes. Good luck to you friend." Derek nods to the rodian and then turns to board his new vessel.******With their last task largely complete, DRK-1X issues a few last instructions to its droid pool through the remote processor before disconnecting, retracting and stowing its scomplink probe. Deploying its manipulator arms, the probot accepts the proffered book, holds it up before its primary photoreceptor and begins scanning its contents.******Once back aboard Derek closes the entry hatch and makes his way to the fore. Seating himself in the pilot's chair, the human replica droid leans back and deactivates his motivator. Focusing his code inwards, Derek begins removing his fighter-craft specifications database from his neural network's active memory and then transferring it to his archival memory banks. In its place, the HRD transfers a space transport-craft specifications database into its active memory before reactivating its motivator. With its sensors and servos back online, Derek's eyes flicker open to regard the control panel before him. Reaching out the HRD begins tapping buttons and flicking switches, bringing the two-thousand-year-old vessel to life. Flicking on the ship's intercom system, the droid addresses his passengers: "All-hands, please be advised that we'll be lifting off momentarily."When ready Derek taps a button, causing the vessel to lift off of the deck and to turn towards the hangar bay doors. Once they're open the ancient freighter slowly maneuvers out into the void once more before its ion drive activates in a flare of light, propelling the freighter onward. Being underway, Derek reaches back and activates the freighter's nav-computer and begins updating its star-charts with current sensor-data as he prepares a new hyperspace jump.******DRK-1X heads off in search of Dofina. Finding her, the diminutive probot offers her the bound tome. "Report: I found some reading material for you should you desire a diversion. Suggestion: We should however first discuss our next course of action. Inquiry: Is it your desire that we attempt to sell our cargo?"OOC: Might you be able to suggest a few possible destinations that 1X and Derek might consider as good prospects for the sale of their cargo of bacta and tanks? Ideally, it should be out of the way and independent from the empire, but with good sale prospects.</blockquote>
