We have leads now, don't we?

You were the one taken. It is your call, then; whether I should follow my instincts with these newcomers or not. I think I would try the one called Blue. He seems to know a bit and be quick to let it go. I wouldn't mind dallying with this Fugue, but she might be dangerous. If you wish, I will seek her out also.

Of course, I am an assassin, not a spy. If things go wrong quickly enough I may simply kill them. That would be too bad. But such are the risks we take.

So that is what a Fourth of July is like. In this, I find myself in agreement with the people of the realm: explosions are fun. It seems almost wasteful to use them for just that, but I've gathered there are fewer hordes of monsters that need to be dispatched here.

I have gathered another thing, also.

[He holds up the card.]

One's "birthday" is of peculiar importance here. This shiny little thing tells me that mine is in fifteen days. Who am I to question it? Certainly I know nothing of when it truly is.

[There's a pause while he sets the green card down, and then he's looking back at the communicator, wistfully.]

I'm...uncertain of how to celebrate. Perhaps making more friends is in order, so there may be a proper party. There are newcomers, I hear. Of course I am meant to be suspicious of them, if I listen to some on the Network, but I think I would rather get to know you all. It is more productive in the long run. And, like explosions, more fun. But only as messy if you wish it to be.
