---

A small civilian vessel messages you, "Wow! You're that alien that opened up the portal, aren't you! Are you busy? Can I ask you a question?"

1. Yes.
   • "What do you eat? What is your culture like? How long do your people live?"
     1. Try to answer his questions.
        • You speak at length about nothing particularly interesting. "Wow, thanks. Oh look, another alien ship! I wonder if they're as nice as you." Seeing the Rebel decals you doubt they're friendly. They spot you and move in to attack, while the Crystalline civilian jumps away.
          • Fight a Rebel ship (default rewards).
        • You speak at length about nothing particularly interesting. "Wow, thanks! I don't know if this is of any use to you, but we have some supplies we can offer you. Perhaps you can use them on your trip!"
          • You receive a random amount of resources and scrap.
        • You speak at length about nothing particularly interesting. "Wow, thanks! Perhaps we can fix up a bit of your hull for sating my curiosity. We're pretty handy with repairs."
          • Your ship is repaired for 6 hull damage.
     2. "I don't have time for this."
        • "I see. Oh well. Maybe the next alien I meet will be nicer..." You prepare to jump.
          • Nothing happens.
2. No.
   • "I see... I guess you're busy."
     • Nothing happens.
3. (Crystal Crew) Have your crew speak to them.
   • "Wow, you're one of us! I didn't know we made an alliance with the aliens. I guess I won't bother you, but here, have some of our extra supplies!"
     • You receive a random amount of fuel and scrap.
