100wordsTitle: Rules and Regulations
The Intergalactic Authority is a stickler for the rules, both for obeying them to the letter and to constantly making up new ones. She can't in good conscience, or even in practicality, follow them all. Like, if she reported in everything she did and filled in the right paperwork, the pirates would escape while she's in the queue. Assuming she can even get a license. The difficulty of getting licenses to hunt the most dangerous criminals makes her suspicious sometimes. Then there's rules like, handing in all potentially dangerous unknown entities to the research station, even if they're just babies.
