"You have two messages waiting. Message one of two. Voice only. Left at 1428 hours."
"Adm. Blake, we regret to inform you that four days ago at 1930 hours your daughter's ship was boarded by a group that called itself, The Readers. Accusing your daughter of crimes against humanity and all sentient life they proceeded to throttle, bludgeon, knife, shoot, and keelhaul (keelhaul? I didn't know you could keelhaul someone with a spaceship) her. We further regret to inform you that her current status is unknown. The last communications received stated something about making sure evidence was not covered up. Rest assured we will do everything necessary to locate her ship."
"Message two of two. Left today at 1705 hours."
"Blake! Would you care to explain what the hell your daughter has been up to, and why the Vulpine Council is calling using words like kidnapping, torture, and acts of war!"
(Monty Python Mode: On) No, no, not at all, really, no, well... maybe just a smidgen of dislike. Nothing major. Just a little touch of shoving her out the airlock without a space suit is too good for her! Grr! Arrr!. But hostility? No, not at all.
