A few weeks skipped and everyone thinks I\u2019m sun fuel, but to all of you rending clothes and planning wakes, happy to \u2019fess that rumors of Jester\u2019s demise were greatly exaggerated. My reentry wasn\u2019t without a few bumps, mind you. Some out there were happy at the thought of my absence. Typical though, isn\u2019t it?

And no, I wasn\u2019t pinched in QuarterDeck if that\u2019s what you\u2019re all thinking. Something much worse. Not only did I have to bear the hardship of not being able to jaw with you fine scalpers, but believe it or not your lovely Jester went out and got a job.\n\nNot a job job mind you, more like a reg working stiff legit job. All right, fair enough that it was part of a longer con, but for all intents, yours truly was full clock and creds for almost two months. The whole thing was cooked up by Twist last year when we\u2019re having a Citizen Day BBQ over at Pielo\u2019s hangar. Halfway through her sixth tumbler of Rust, Twist gets a funny look, and lays the whole thing out picture perfect: we convince some outfit that we\u2019re a shipping company, then they would just give us the loot. Our jaws just dropped. Twist\u2019s like that. One of those types whose brain thinks clearer in a fog. We all agreed to it straight off. Was only a matter of finding the right ship at that point, and more importantly, getting me a place aboard.\n\nWhy me? Well, guess who out of the whole team was the only one with enough know how to run a scan suite? That\u2019s right. Thanks to all my time broadcasting this fine slice of spec, Jester can twirl a knob smoother than most trained techs. Hard jump to me wearing a respectable cut and shaking hands with Captain Clueless who\u2019s agreed to take me on for a three-month trial run to see if I was a good fit aboard the About to be Screwed. It was a rusted out dump of a ship for sure, but it ran well. Real well, actually. Hand selected for just that reason. It was small time enough to be off the grid while still pulling enough premium grade ore to be worth our time. You know, as easy at is to fake an IDTag, you figured a smart captain would put a little more time into vetting who they let aboard, let alone who they give system access to. But lucky for us, there\u2019s plenty of not-smart captains. A scurrows gotta eat, eh?\n\nThe score couldn\u2019t have gone off more bliss if I\u2019d wanted. One minute I\u2019m making chitchat with the Captain about how the best ballie sandwiches are made with scrounge and the next I\u2019m feeding Twist all the clearcodes for the pickup sched. Then once a week for two months, Twist floats along in a cat blaring out the codes and regtags to pretending to be the hauler company that Clueless is supposed to be delivering to. Is it really stealing when the mark just hands you the tuck?\n\nThe final bit of bril is that I traced the whole thing back to an under-welder who they had working the scut. You should have seen him wailing his innocence when they threw him into the hold to wait for the Advos to come. Told them that I was leaving the contract early seeing how the crew had a criminal aboard. Captain actually apologized to me! Paid me the full contract and said he\u2019d be glad to have me back.

Wei\u00dft du, ich gebe es zu, ich habe diese Sendungen hier verpasst. Es ist nicht viel, aber es ist meins, wenn du mich verstehst. Und es ist gut zu wissen, dass ich auch vermisst wurde. Mein Postfach ist fit, um mit besorgten Anfragen zu platzen. Ein paar Wochen \u00fcbersprungen und jeder denkt, dass ich Sonnenkraftstoff bin, aber f\u00fcr euch alle, die ihr Kleidung zerrei\u00dft und Aufwachen plant, gl\u00fccklich dar\u00fcber, dass Ger\u00fcchte \u00fcber Narrensterns Tod stark \u00fcbertrieben waren. Mein Wiedereintritt war nicht ohne ein paar Unebenheiten, wohlgemerkt. Einige da drau\u00dfen waren gl\u00fccklich \u00fcber den Gedanken an meine Abwesenheit. Aber typisch, nicht wahr? Sobald die Leute denken, dass sie an einer Leiche schn\u00fcffeln, kommen die Geier heraus. Zum Beispiel, Eric, wenn du deine Outlaw Roll Call Show noch einmal auf meiner Band ausstrahlst, werden wir als n\u00e4chstes auf dich ansto\u00dfen. Kristall?\n\nDa die gewaltt\u00e4tigen Drohungen aus dem Weg sind, bin ich sicher, dass ihr alle nach Luft schnappt, um zu wissen, wohin Jester verschwunden ist. Nun, lassen Sie mich sagen, es waren einige wenige. Und nein, ich wurde nicht in QuarterDeck gezwickt, wenn es das ist, was ihr alle denkt. Etwas viel Schlimmeres. Nicht nur musste ich die H\u00e4rte ertragen, nicht mit dir \u00fcber die Schulter zu schauen, sondern auch, ob du es glaubst oder nicht, dein reizender Narr ging hinaus und bekam einen Job.\n\nNicht ein Job Job Job k\u00fcmmern Sie sich, mehr wie ein reg Arbeit steifen legalen Job. In Ordnung, fair genug, dass es Teil eines l\u00e4ngeren Betrugs war, aber im Grunde genommen war Ihre Uhr und Ihre Creds fast zwei Monate lang voll. Das Ganze wurde letztes Jahr von Twist erfunden, als wir einen B\u00fcrgertag-Grill dr\u00fcben in Pielos Hangar veranstalten. Auf halbem Weg durch ihren sechsten Becher von Rust bekommt Twist einen lustigen Blick und legt das ganze Bild perfekt aus: Wir \u00fcberzeugen einige Outfits, dass wir eine Reederei sind, dann w\u00fcrden sie uns einfach die Beute geben. Unsere Kiefer sind gerade gefallen. Twist ist so. Einer dieser Typen, deren Gehirn bei Nebel klarer denkt. Wir waren uns alle einig. Es ging nur darum, das richtige Schiff an diesem Punkt zu finden und vor allem, mir einen Platz an Bord zu besorgen.\n\nWarum ich? Nun, rate mal, wer aus dem ganzen Team der Einzige war, der \u00fcber gen\u00fcgend Wissen verf\u00fcgte, wie man eine Scan-Suite betreibt? Das ist richtig. Dank meiner ganzen Zeit, die ich damit verbracht habe, dieses feine St\u00fcck Spezifikation zu \u00fcbertragen, kann Narr einen Knopf glatter drehen als die meisten ausgebildeten Techniker. Harte Spr\u00fcnge zu mir, die einen respektablen Schnitt tragen und mir die H\u00e4nde sch\u00fctteln, mit Captain Clueless, der sich bereit erkl\u00e4rt hat, mich f\u00fcr einen dreimonatigen Probelauf mitzunehmen, um zu sehen, ob ich an Bord des About to be Screwed gut zurechtkomme. Es war sicher eine verrostete M\u00fcllhalde eines Schiffes, aber es lief gut. Wirklich gut, eigentlich. Aus genau diesem Grund wurde die Hand ausgew\u00e4hlt. Es war nur wenig Zeit, um vom Netz zu gehen und gleichzeitig genug Erz in Premium-Qualit\u00e4t zu gewinnen, um unsere Zeit wert zu sein. Wissen Sie, so einfach es ist, einen IDTag zu f\u00e4lschen, Sie dachten sich, dass ein intelligenter Kapit\u00e4n etwas mehr Zeit in die \u00dcberpr\u00fcfung investieren w\u00fcrde, wen er an Bord l\u00e4sst, geschweige denn auf wen er den Systemzugriff gew\u00e4hrt. Aber zum Gl\u00fcck f\u00fcr uns gibt es viele unkluge Kapit\u00e4ne. Eine Schlingel m\u00fcssen essen, was?\n\nDer Punktestand h\u00e4tte nicht mehr Gl\u00fcck bringen k\u00f6nnen, wenn ich gewollt h\u00e4tte. In einer Minute unterhalte ich mich mit dem Captain dar\u00fcber, wie die besten Ballie-Sandwiches mit Schnorren zubereitet werden, und in der n\u00e4chsten f\u00fcttere ich Twist mit allen Klarcodes f\u00fcr den Abholplan. Dann schwimmt Twist einmal pro Woche f\u00fcr zwei Monate in einer Katze herum, die die Codes und Kennzeichen ausbl\u00e4st, um vorzugeben, die Spedition zu sein, an die Clueless liefern soll. Ist es wirklich stehlend, wenn das Zeichen dir einfach den Steifen gibt?\n\nDas letzte Bit von bril ist, dass ich die ganze Sache bis zu einem Unterschwei\u00dfer zur\u00fcckverfolgt habe, den sie an der Scut arbeiten lie\u00dfen. Du h\u00e4ttest sehen sollen, wie er seine Unschuld beklagte, als sie ihn in den Frachtraum warfen, um auf die Ankunft der Advos zu warten. Sagte ihnen, dass ich den Vertrag vorzeitig verlasse, um zu sehen, wie die Crew einen Verbrecher an Bord hat. Der Captain hat sich tats\u00e4chlich bei mir entschuldigt! Er hat mir den vollen Vertrag bezahlt und gesagt, er w\u00fcrde sich freuen, mich wiederzuhaben. Ich f\u00fchlte mich fast schlecht f\u00fcr den Slog, aber ich stellte sicher, dass ich diese zus\u00e4tzlichen Cremes gut gebrauchen konnte. Wir haben ihn gestern Abend mit Twist und den anderen in Blinder's Bar getrunken, als wir einen guten Job feierten.\n\nApropos, all das Gerede hat meinen Kopf wieder in Bewegung gesetzt. F\u00fchlt sich an wie ein Repeater, der auf Auto steht. Ich denke, dies ist ein ebenso guter Zeitpunkt wie jeder andere, um das Ende meiner triumphalen R\u00fcckkehr zu markieren. Keine Angst. B0otyCall wird zur\u00fcckkommen. Du kannst einen guten Narren nicht unten halten. Das Gleiche gilt f\u00fcr einen schlechten.\n\nB0otyCall out!","zh_CN":"ERROR\u2026\u2026\u2026>>\nCOMM\/SEC INTERRUPT\nUNAUTH SIGNAL >>\nSIGNAL FOUND\nKnock back a cup, for Jester has returned!\n\nMight as well go ahead and knock back a few more while you\u2019re hazarding a drink \u2018cause a bit of the vert makes BOotyCall easier to swallow.
