So, what makes this sapphire so special?
UNKNOWN COMMANDER: (BALLOON)713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyxd5OsZX0
The energy readings emanating from it are off the charts. The supercharging potential that this sapphire could offer is incalculable.
LYME: (BALLOON)713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFQ1UC1vV6
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)713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73yoplr2Qv
Your thoughts on the subject are superficial.

LYME: (BALLOON)713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8d4sOWCiCp
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.
