What happens when you need to restock? What happens if something goes wrong with your ship? Better to be close to some intelligent life than none.

Well, I suppose it wouldn't work so well in the long term. Then again, most people usually look for a more temporary solution when hiding out.

[universal_charm]

Yeah, to a point. But it's hard enough to get off planet without detection anyways, or come near one as it is. Space ships are heavily monitored going in and out of atmo.

[widows_kiss]

Why is that?

[universal_charm]

Well, who knows what they could be carrying? Space ships are huge, and the payloads could be devastating, not to mention what do they have in the cargos? Animals? Plants? Some new disease? And what if they're from some planet we're not on friendly terms with? Yeah, we monitor them.

[She pauses to think about it a moment, because thinking security on a planetary scale was not something she was used to. It sounded like it would be a pain in the ass.]

Bigger universe. A whole lot more assholes trying to screw things up for everyone. Sounds like fun.

[universal_charm]

Yeah, basically. Romulans are on okay terms with us, and Klingons are... an interesting bunch. Our best friends are the Vulcans, I'd say, then a host of others. And then you just have your normal every-day dirt bags on Earth. Ships are damned expensive, but war birds are war birds.

Just crashing the thing into a land mass would do enough damage to raise ever klaxon in every country across the globe.
