Having disappeared for years from one day to the other was already a pretty damn shit thing to do, and now you return as if nothing happened.
I suppose not just your life has changed, but so has mine. I've waited many days for your return, staying in Liberty despite the rumors of your death.
However, I've recently gotten myself a spot in the Starfliers. Been preparing the ship for a mission in Tau-44, so I'm not exactly within Liberty's reach. In a way
I'm intrigued that you decided to get back to me, a few dozen months too late but you still did.

Listen, I'll think about it. For all those years you were mostly bound by your duty, and now I have one as well for once. I thought I was done with that chapter, but you've
had different plans it seems. If I decide to accept your offer you'll know. No protocols or rules will prevent me from tracking your old butt down, I think you know that by
now.

I've made it safely to Tau-44, don't you worry. Met up with a coworker of mine to do my first system chart, which has gone pretty well. At least now I know why the Starflier vessels all have state of the art radiation shielding - you need it. Worked late into the night to finish the report, but apparently I did a decent job as I've been assigned the next system almost immediately. Tau-37, which is sadly even further away from Liberty, although it may help you dodge that punch for another day or two.

I'll be looking forward to our next meeting. Already talked to the boozeman (don't ask) and I've been granted a little break once 37 is done. Perhaps you'd like to spend some time together? I'd be around for a few days, so if you want to arrange something, perhaps that would be a good time before I'm sent back to the Taus.
