Good evening, Lord Commander.
I hope you have already completed your affairs aboard of Harvest Moon, and haven't forget that little ginger menace that have inquired of you about the citizenship.
However, i've heard some concerning words from that lewd lady who accompanied you on Undaunted.
Thus, little ginger menace calls you out for a meeting. I will not take "no" as an answer, Locklear. I assume we can find a nice comfy place at Guadalajara to visit and have our meeting.

You're persistent if nothing else, I'll give you that. I'm still here aboard the Harvest Moon, though as much as I'd like to stay I suppose I'll need to drag myself out of bed eventually. Really though, is Heartwood right about you? You've been given lodging on America, your citizenship is being processed, and I even said I'd consider your 'big' request given that things proceed smoothly. I'll pen in some time to meet you, but you ought to learn to be a little more direct about what you want. After all, it worked for Aisling.

Without that persistence of mine i wouldn't even become what i am, i would not lay my hands on Sparta - the Aquilon in question bears that name, along with an implementation it is a "Mark-II" incantation of it.
Anyway, i hope you've slept well during the night.
Oh, you want me to be more direct, Locklear? Fine, then. I am actually calling you out. Is it a date? Yes.
The one where we get to know each other and see if something better can be made out of it.
Pick a place while i'll be picking the best outfit out of my wardrobe. Speaking of the time... today, 18:00 SST.
Hope to see you soon, Locklear. Or should i call you Samuel?

Dates kind of require consent, and you're a little young for me. I'll humor your request and take you out to dinner, but that is all, do you understand?

I don't need you to humor me, Locklear. I want your utter loneliness to be gone. The text of the message ends here, however, it also contains an image.

My utter loneliness? I think you've got the wrong person, I've a little more dignity than that. Maybe Vladimir Scorpius would be more to your liking? He's the one with the keys to your precious Vindicator anyway. Seriously, where on earth did you get that idea?
