So, what makes this sapphire so special?
UNKNOWN COMMANDER: (BALLOON)163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhREp7z4B5U
The energy readings emanating from it are off the charts. The supercharging potential that this sapphire could offer is incalculable.
LYME: (BALLOON)163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSPcQCmFv0
Great, we've discovered that it's just another battery for your machines. I thought that it would be something more extravagant.
UNKNOWN SUB-COMMANDER: (BALLOON)163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZSkIAQ6tn
Your thoughts on the subject are superficial.

LYME: (BALLOON)163Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnBbqu3bEv
Just because you work with someone doesn't mean that you have to like them but if it's official I'd be willing to at least tolerate her. She's too headstrong for my liking to be honest.
