So, what makes this sapphire so special?
UNKNOWN COMMANDER: (BALLOON)278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tCEbrmN0z
The energy readings emanating from it are off the charts. The supercharging potential that this sapphire could offer is incalculable.
LYME: (BALLOON)278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi60En5KKpi
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)278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpP56BorOj
Your thoughts on the subject are superficial.

LYME: (BALLOON)278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAWj0ZTqVE
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.
