Well, it's hard to find a peace of mind in a place like this.
[that's true. it's a nice thought, when one wasn't busy being bitter-- and it's difficult to be bitter in the face of Guy's easy assurance, even over text.]
[that's true, it would be something.]
[that's...]
FROM: hinata.shouyou@cdc.org You'll write a letter?
I will. Even if it goes nowhere, it's the thought that counts.
[He'll be careful not to write too much, given the channels it's being delivered through. But he does want to do this, even if he winds up backing out on the decision.]
FROM: hinata.shouyou@cdc.org It'll be good to ask if those temporary recruits can get letters, too. Although with Warriorhead and Armada missing, I'm not sure who we'd talk to about it.

They don't even guarantee the message reaches the person
FROM: hinata.shouyou@cdc.org
Isn't that great? All this technology and they refuse to deliver a message
ok no real tags now
Have you ever sent any messages, Hinata?
way to be rational, guy
I knew a few people who have
It's more about the personal closure, I guess
rational is his middle name

Of course I don't. I'm sure the more letters he gets, the happier he'll be.

I noticed.

We could ask Gliese or Mothership.

Mothership might.
We could send her a text once we've got the letters ready.
