The energy readings emanating from it are off the charts. The supercharging potential that this sapphire could offer is incalculable.
LYME: (BALLOON)273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGTztm3JBx
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)273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZW73zc97WG
Your thoughts on the subject are superficial.

LYME: (BALLOON)273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcaH9BuSar
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.
