Luke Jaywalker placed his hand on the keypad next to his door.
[NOW AUTHORIZING… PERSONAL ID ACCEPTED. WELCOME, LUKE JAYWALKER.]
The metal door slid open. A large aquarium hid the rest of the room. Walking around it, he took in his surroundings. The room was split into three parts.
The first, central part was the living area. Almost like a lobby, it held couches, chairs, tables, holos, et cetera.
In this section, there was a work area, a project table area, discussion area, and relaxation area.
The next section on the left was the private area. It held the bathrooms, master bedroom, guest bedrooms, kitchen, dining area, and laundry room.
The section on the right was empty other than a small table at the entrance. A note there read the following.
"Hello, Luke. This is Commander Grenada with Home Design. When you have some free time, please stop by our home design department to furnish this room."
He went back to the Master Bedroom. It was the size of his former house's bottom floor.
Rolling his eyes, he walked all the way to the back of the room, where his bed was. A small bedside table held three things: an identification holobracelet, a badge, and a note, which he picked up.
'I've added a top-grade experimental navi program to your holobracelet. Be careful, as you can hack portions of the Legacy herself. Just because you can doesn't mean you should. Then again, we're invincible up through level 4 Military Violations, so meh.'
'It's nice to have a new guy around! I'll be seeing you tomorrow. I've left a list of features on a note on your home menu. Later! -Tad'
Luke picked up the bracelet. It was golden in color, and relatively plain looking. He touched the interface key.
"Welcome, user Luke Jaywalker. Would you like to change your username?"
"Yes. Change it to 'Card Junkie.' "
"Name 'Card Junkie' accepted. Would you like to change the Navi's voice?"
"Yes."
"I can offer all of the voices of the recorded members of the Federation, as well as those stored on social media."
"Use the voice of Frogan Meeman."
The voice shifted. "As you wish. Select a name for this navi."
"Battalion."
"If you would like to summon this Navi, use the word Battalion. Would you like to use voice key for activation only, utilize the interface key, or use both at will?"
"Voice key activation only."
"New settings applied. Now opening the home screen."
A blue screen appeared. After some quick customization, his background was changed to a picture of his new pet against a red galaxy.
He looked at the note left by Tad. Along the different hackable things on board the Legacy, various tools, and features, the note listed the rights granted by his new vocation.
'The EX Class Mech Pilots are built on a foundation of the Pilots before them. When Amari decided to join, he used his class 10 Galactic Federation favor to allow all the pilots behind him to gain a class 10 favor.'
'In turn, this has given rise to a number of benefits for incoming EX Mech Pilots. These benefits include the following.'
'Immediate Military Rank of Lieutenant Commander.
1 Quadrillion Federation Credits.
Planetary Control Rights over the pilot's Origin Planet.
Level 10 Galactic Citizenship.
EX-Rank Top Secret Clearance.
Unlimited Military Level 4 Exemptions.
1 Level 10 Galactic Federation Favor or equivalent.
5 level 5 Galactic Federation Favors or equivalent.'
"What?!"
He hadn't gotten used to his new station, and already there was this?
Luke resolved to talk to Turik about it tomorrow, as well as make sure he had used up his favors properly- and if not, that they were properly kept for later.
After checking out his new permissions- the level 4 exoneration clearance meaning he could assault an entire squadron without penalty- he walked over to his dresser.
With a surprise, he recognized his clothes: they had already been brough over from his house. Ecstatic, he changed into his pajamas brushed his teeth, and prepared for bed.
"Battalion, shut the lights out now, and wake me up one and a half hours before my scheduled meeting with the rest of the EX Division."
"It will be as you have requested."
Utterly exhausted, Luke Jaywalker fell asleep on his new, ultra soft cloud mattress (made with real clouds.)
