The Space Between shook her head. It was a shame that that… “influencer” was unwilling to sell. Despite what she’d told them, in truth Between found it depressing to see such a beautiful machine sit unused. Scratches weren’t blemishes, they were badges. If they’d agreed to sell, she would have needed to add some scratches to give it character. Then she could present it to the board.
Rex Servo Navalia was a group of artists, but some very stupid business people. The Princess in Waiting was an attempt to appeal to military interests, and deemed a failure. The lesson they took from it was that they were mistaken to appeal to the military, instead of the rich. How stupid can you be? Why not appeal to the RICH MILITARY? The answer was so obvious it drove Between crazy.
If she could get her hands on this Princess in Waiting, she could show it to them. Remind the board of what their engineers were capable of… and pivot to making the pitch. Wealthy PMCs. Warlords. Kings. There was money on the table those fools were too stupid to see. Well, she’d find some way of showing it to them.
