The Admiral appears to be running on a Julian calendar – thank God – which is pretty standard for most of us. And for those who don’t know: our new year starts at midnight in two days. So we’ve got another upcoming holiday and a bar. We could have karaoke. [He says it with the salacious, promising tone in which one might say "public sex" or "veal."]

Let me know if this sounds good. And if anyone has ideas, or wants help put things together, whatever, let me know that too. Just CC me on anything to do with this, really.

[It tugs at him a little. He doesn't know where Elene is, not really. He isn't sure how much longer she'll be with him, even if she forgave him for everything. He just knows he needs to be with her as soon as he can, and maybe he can protect her from whatever's to come. It all bundles into a defensive anger though, and a poorly misfired one.]

Do you think there's a reason I wouldn't?

Not you specifically. Some people aren't close to their partners. [What follows is a moment of awkward silence.] People like me and Evi.

[He calms as easily as his anger was stirred. Maybe he misunderstood.]

I had to leave suddenly and it's been a while. Even before I came here it had been a couple months. So, no. I'm not certain.
