MISSION DATE 32:09:18:0930
MISSION OBJECTIVE: DISRUPT GUESTS VISIT
MISSION STATUS: IN PROGRESS
Over the last few days G had been enduring the humiliating set of tasks assigned to him by Commander Rale'tu. Clean this hallway, clean that air ventilation unit, tweak that temperate sensor so it would be out of sync with the main building automated system control... all that did was to is make certain sections of the resort uncomfortable for organics and waste precious resources that the base needs.
R2-G5 liked working with organics, but he was designed to be a self propelled computer specialist and carried enough equipment in miniature form to make most of the other techs on the base envious. He did get plenty of opportunities though to refine his programming when it came to interacting with the guests various accounts while they were off enjoying the amenities of the resort.
This morning he was strolling down the main hall of the resort at snails pace...what does that even mean....he had been told by the Commander during many mornings briefings to "Work the hall at a snails pace...", which usually meant that he was to take his time; dusting the furniture, changing fixtures, escorting guests to their rooms, and keeping tabs on the various recruits as the interacted with the Resorts Staff and guests.
Today though was different. Today he received very specific instructions from the Commander to assist the new arrival, one titled "THE NEPHEW".
Apparently the nephew fancied himself an important person due to some family connections, but to R2-G5 it was clear that the wife was who was in charge when they were checking in. R2-G5 rolled passed the couple at his usual snails pace as he dusted the cushions of some of the seating arrangements nearby. He was not supposed to approach any "Guests" unless specifically called for, part of the service that the Commander wanted him to portray.
"Droid...ooh Droid.... I do say, be a good chap and take our bags." stated the nephew. G stopped what he was doing, set the duster down, and spun around to answer the guest call. The astromech droid traditional rugged exterior had been temporarily modified to provide a visual appearance that he was wearing a tuxedo along with a bow tie, to better serve the welfare of the guests, is how the Commander explained it to him. G had just wished that the color selection was more traditional. Instead of the standard Black and White, he had been painted to deep maroon with white and gold trim. Nobody asked G how he felt about this, made him feel like on of those pimps he had seen in some of those holovids the recruits watch back at the common area.
The nephew handed G his suite key card. He pause a second as he looked over the droid.
"I never understand why these resorts out here refuse to use the more modern butler droids.." he clamored on as his wife waved him off.
"Charles, we are on vacation. You promised me a fun filled trip to an exclusive resort..." she announced with a charming grace as she remove her long sleek gloves from her arms, she turned and leaned into her husband's personal space and gritted her teeth and spoke with a controlled anger,
"THis Is not EXClusive..you should be more worried about weather or not I am happy, WHich I am Not." and with that she spun around and waved her husband off again.
"And have what ever that thing is take our bags to the room, I hope for your sake dear that the have a spa..." G and the Nephew each swivel their gaze to each other for a moment before looking back at the woman that has called G a thing.
"Aw the things I do for Love.." stated the nephew as he started at his wife as she strutted off further into the resort.
G did a quick double take with his dome. He stared at the nephew. You sad sad little man he thought to himself.
