[FORWARD DATED to tomorrow! He writes slowly and deliberately, letters formed neater than usual.] That’s that, then. I’m the Commander of the City Watch back in Ankh-Morpork, but most of you knew that already, and I’m hoping I’ve still got a family waiting for me. I’ve been here for nearly three years, which is three years too long as far as I’

Thank you for keeping us all safe, Mr. Vimes. Have a safe trip home.

[stonyfaced]

Thank you, Kagerou. Good luck wherever you decide to go.

[weaver_girl]

I'm going home. I'm--needed there. I'm sure you know how that feels. So--good luck to you, too!

[stonyfaced]

Not at such a young age, but yes, I know how that feels. I'm sure there will be people there glad to see you back.

I feel like the name Ankh-Morpork is familiar, but without Wikipedia I couldn't say for sure.

I--this feels so informal. Saying goodbye like this.

[stonyfaced]

That's odd. Just about everyone on the Disc knows Ankh-Morpork, probably better than they'd like, but I don't see a reason for anyone from different worlds to know what it is. What's Wikipedia?

Yeah, that'd be because it is. I'm planning on saying good bye to the people I need to in person, this is just the only way I can say good bye to everyone as a whole, whether they want to hear it or not.

Thank you for all the chances you gave me, sir.

I'll miss you.

You worked hard for it, Rosalind. [Though he has no bloody idea what it was she did. Goggles. Science has something to do with goggles. She has those, right? Goggles? Very sciencey, that.] You were a one woman forensics team, after all - that's how the one back home got started too.

Do you have a home to go back to?

[blindedmewith]

I did my best. I'll keep doing my best!

[Somehow. Wherever she ends up. Because she's pretty sure that a position like the one she had here won't be so easy to find again. She'll have to take what she's done here, learn from it, and treasure the memories.]

I think so. I'm not sure I remember everything-it's not completely clear in my head. But I know I knew Mr. Ju Edgeworth there, and I know it was called Los Angeles. I'd like to see it again. But I won't say goodbye to Kagerou and Axel forever, either.

[stonyfaced]

[Okay, he's kind of relieved to hear that.]

Good to hear it, Rosalind. Stick with the people you trust and you can't go too wrong. [...well, you really, really can. But she doesn't have to know that.]

[esoteric_rose]

[She could say a lot of things, really, but only one makes it out of her pen onto the page.]

Thank you for everything you have done.

[stonyfaced]

[Oh, Juliet, always so courteous. You're a hard one.]

You're welcome, Juliet. Good luck in your future. [And don't kill anyone.]
