The Vanquish's engineer left. Apparently she had a hobby of making swords...lots of swords. And the captain is willing to give me a few of the swords in exchange for helping them sort through all of them.
Since you're our security officer, I was wondering if you wanted me to keep an eye out for a good quality sword for you.
Aye, definitely. The one I have purchased does not seem much. [A pause.] Try to find a longsword for me. I do not mind the weight but it has to be slightly bigger than the one I have now.
[He gives an amused sound at that reaction] From the sounds of it, her crewmates didn't know the extent of her hobby either until they went into her room.
[Ah yes, good -specifics and pickiness are actually helpful!]
Alright, I can do that! What's the current length of the sword you have now? And is steel okay?
Were her chambers full of swords? [It is kind of amazing that so many women are being swordsmen here.]
The one I have is between a long dagger and a short sword. I prefer it longer. [He thinks deeply.] Four feet, mayhaps? Is there something like that there? Long.
[It is really hard measuring something over the communicator.]
Is that really true? Can you show it to me? Turn on the front of your communicator so I can see the images. Or take a not-moving image. And send it to me so I can see it inside my box.

[Because Robb is picky about swords.]

[What was she even planning to do with 50+ swords? The universe may never know]
Four feet....okay!I think there might be a few! I'll take a close look at them, and bring you back one if I find a good one!
