audio; an open message to the captains
This is ridiculous. More than ridiculous, it’s… it’s actively idiotic.
If any of your claims about our abductions being “accidental” are true, your primary objective should be to return us to our home-planets as quickly and efficiently as possible. Instead, you want us to stay on this planet for weeks while the natives drone on about meaningless distractions like dating and love. [There’s a brief pause here, and one can easily imagine the speaker shaking her head in disgust.] Even if you did have ulterior motives in taking us, which is more than likely, there is no reason to have us stay on this irrelevant planet other than to waste our time.
I don’t know about my crewmates, but I have already been away for too long. I had -- have an objective back on Pandora and if these pointless diversions end up preventing its completion, I will make you pay for it. [She lets the threat hang there for a moment before speaking again.]
Athena, out.

My official role on the ship is “Public Relations Officer.” [You can practically hear the air quotes in her voice.] In other words, non-essential.
Re: audio;
[that is literally the funniest thing aurelia has heard in a while and she didn't expect it to come from athena.]
You, Athena? Public Relations? Heavens, they must truly despise their crew. How many have you shot already?
