hearrrtofgoldThe 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.

Date: 2015-01-02 10:35 am (UTC)Well, you do have a library full of books from a lot of different worlds all at your disposal. And literally all the time in the world. With all of that, you could probably find another way.

Can I ask you something?
[private]
Date: 2015-01-03 03:55 am (UTC)Sure. [He gives a slightly sad, self-deprecating smile.] I can't guarantee I'll answer, but you can ask.
[private]
Date: 2015-01-03 04:09 am (UTC)That's fair. It's not really my business to ask this.
But, why are you helping these people? They can't be the only ones suffering in your world, and it sounds like there are others that would be just as willing to do what you're doing now. You're obviously involved with it all to give me names, but they were only names. Like a patient that comes in with an illness. You aren't attached to them, but you want to help them. But not everyone with good intentions can do that. So, what made you decide to help them?

Date: 2015-01-03 04:24 am (UTC)I'm attached. Audrey's probably my best friend. Nathan's a huge pain in the ass but I've known him for a long time. Bill, too, and my friend Vanessa, she died of a Trouble -- and even me. I have a Trouble too.
People shouldn't have to live with these things.

Date: 2015-01-03 04:37 am (UTC)Thanks for the answer. And the chat.
I didn't mean to take up your time like that.

Date: 2015-01-03 05:33 am (UTC)What's Elene like, if you don't mind me asking?
[private]
Date: 2015-01-03 05:43 am (UTC)[He's always had to keep his infatuation and contact with her secret back home. Most don't know they're even connected, it's something Kylar's made painstaking efforts to make sure of.]

Date: 2015-01-03 05:48 am (UTC)[At least Kylar's reasons were noble. Duke kept his marriage to Evi on the down-low due for professional reasons (it was easier to run cons together if people didn't know they were partners), but partly for personal reasons -- he and Evi were fascinated with each other, head over heels, but they just couldn't live easily together and had been separated for a long time.]

Date: 2015-01-04 05:01 am (UTC)Do you think there's a reason I wouldn't?
[private]
Date: 2015-01-04 05:07 am (UTC)Not you specifically. Some people aren't close to their partners. [What follows is a moment of awkward silence.] People like me and Evi.

Date: 2015-01-04 05:19 am (UTC)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.
