Hope no one was sleepin' while that was going on...

Things are under control again.

I think it really sunk in on him now, but I don't know, it might be too late.

I sent him to bed. Ain't done that in... a long time. He's pretty upset though.

Good.

Maria, what's goin' on with the alliance?

Just... disappointed, mostly, with Jing's recent behavior. I can't say I'm not, but... I think I understand him better now.

Re: ( screened to Aligote )

[soulinflight]

You an' me both. He acted like an idiot an' believe me, I just finished goin' up one side of him and down the other for it.

I know he won't do this again... he wasn't thinking about what he was doing. Just like he wasn't thinking when he snapped at you in that post. I should've seen it there, that things were gettin' bad for him... I should've figured he was getting too raw...

'M sorry, Maria... I could've stopped this from happenin' if I'd just...

If you'd just what?

It is never easy to lose someone you care for. I guess I just... forgot that not everyone deals with loss the way I do.

If I just... hadn't been so stubborn.

Yeah. I know it ain't an excuse an' it doesn't make his stupid actions any less stupid, but this goes way far back for him, long before Econtra.

Maria... I shouldn't have said that thing about being a machine... I didn't mean you specifically... it was...

argh why am I so dumb...

( screened to Aligoté )

[crescentlocus]

I see.

Don't worry about it. That just... struck a nerve back then.

Re: ( screened to Aligoté )

[soulinflight]

Well... I'm sorry anyway.

As for Jing, I'm gonna hang around Ast-Tessera for a few days until I figure out what's going to happen, 'kay?

Re: ( screened to Aligoté )

Unnecessary, but if you insist on apologizing, then I say you are forgiven.

Alright. Just let me know if there's anything I can do to help, although there are already some things I have to attend to. A couple of meetings here and there, and possibly putting together a team to investigate the amnesia incident a month ago.

[soulinflight]

Okay.

Just... if you could let me know how things end up...

( screened to Aligoté )

[crescentlocus]

... Alright. You have my word.
