Sam message 02

4546B to Robin! Come in, Robin! (laughs) Remember when we used to play Olde Timey Space Explorer? This is kind of like that but it's even harder to communicate. (laughs) Well, let's see... I got your last message. Alterra is not, as you put it, Alterrorizing me. Things are going well. My project has a new name! Say goodbye to the Mechanical Avian Amphibian and hello to Spy Penglings! We're training the bots to mimic the creatures. Check out the photo. And…I think I'm kind of seeing someone? I know it's not like me to just…find a date. Let alone on a mostly uninhabited water planet, but… Actually you know what? Forget I said anything. Yeah, it's probably not even a real thing. But anyway.... I'm sorry to hear XenoWorx might be strapped in the revenue department. Sounds like they still have you busy xeno-working though. I know there's no way to guarantee an alien intelligence startup will succeed, but… you've put so much into it. I hope they find a way to keep going. I know how much it means to you, getting to work at a small place where you have control over your research. Alright, I gotta go. Later, baby sis! Love you.
