Hi John!
It's really been a goddamn while since we've seen each other for the last time, I believe it was at least a few weeks ago if I remember that correctly? However the exact number of days might be, it's definitely been enough of a while, at least for me. In fact, I've been looking around for you lately, you know, hanging around your apartment every now and then waiting for you to show up, but that did seem to be a very rare case lately, sadly. I mean, it's still your home, not mine, so I guess it surely deserves a little more of you from time to time, and so do I, don't you think? Probably it's about your work again, you being clustered with the good old everyday paperwork, or is there something else that is the reason for you staying away more than usually lately? I mean, I had some paperwork as well lately, too much for my taste, but that's what happens when you attempt to re-structure a whole organization, right? One day I'll kick bureaucracy in its fat arse, I swear.
Maybe this is all a misconception though and it's actually me being around less than used to. If so, it's just because I needed some time off, basically. You see, without much social interactions and all, just chilling around in the various parks of Manhattan and allowing nature to unfold its calming effect on you, listening to the rustle of leaves in a fresh breeze. Picturesque, right? It's just you and nature there, nobody throwing complaints at you or trying to kill you - well, mosquitos trying to bite you, but that's a completely different story. It's been a couple of relaxing weeks after the other ones that had induced some ... painful stress, let's keep it that way, nothing I'd like to have repeated anytime soon. And by chance, Liberty seems to be more or less calm lately, another fact adding to that I kinda enjoy hanging around there again lately after a period of time when I was pretty pissed off with it. My attempts of staying out of any significant trouble have shown some sort of success as of late, maybe, just a little maybe, maybe I'll manage to keep it that way, which actually is a very charming idea when I think about it. Just staying out of all the sh.it at least for once, I can't even imagine how good that would feel.
Anyways, seems that statement has become obsolete considering what you told me about this Prometheus douchebag, and hey, I worded that extra nicely for you, I could have made use of my long list of swearwords, but I'll restrain myself. In fact, it's quite funny as the guy commanding this ship has already crossed my desk once as of late, for a very similar matter, however that is to be considered my work and I would like to ask you to not ask about it. You know, obligation to preserve secrecy in our line of business and such stuff. What I can tell you however is that I've already been aware of this person threatening people and their families, and that he likes to choose Navy for his side-splittingly funny claims. It actually surprised me a little that I don't get overly worried about such a guy threatening to kill me, but honestly, it's becoming redundant at one point, and that point has already long been crossed I believe.
Just hit me up when you're around so I can just see your face again, I've missed it, and you. Maybe this long overdue face-to-face meeting could be accompanied by a nice restaurant visit or something like this? It's been some time since I've been going out, actually, something that needs to be fixed ASAP as well.

John,
It's been some time. About a week if I remember correctly. I'm out of hospital by now, finally, it was about time if you ask me. If they had held me hostage for longer, I swear I'd have made a getaway on my own. Doctors and their overcautions the whole time, am I right? Right, more caution would have been more appropriate at times, don't give me that now. I'm still feeling a little weak compared to before it, but it's getting better, and I can fly my ships again. Though I have to take extensive naps at the moment, it's all a bit too exhausting for my likings. And the circumstances don't make it better, as you can imagine.
I hope you had a nice week?
To put it straight forward: I doubt the current situation is helping neither you nor me. How long do you want to brood over it all by yourself, how long do you want to isolate yourself? It's just getting worse day by day when we seclude us from each other the whole time. Don't you think talking the whole mess out would prove helpful? The pro: You can fling pretty much everything in my teeth, whatever you want to tell me I probably have thought about enough already. I can bear that. The con: There is none.
Meet me whenever you want. Time and place is your decision, I am flexible. I will pull myself together to not make this meeting come apart at the seams.
the reason why I decided that I would need distance from you, was because I have no idea -what- to think about you, and how to react towards you anymore. Barely able to look into your eyes, It is not even possible to find a term for what I felt. A mixup of anger, disappointment, sadness. I couldn't think clearly, not at home, not outside on duty.
When I said there was only one thing that came close of being totally shattered when my parents died, was, when I got your message that you were put into a hospital the first time..... -THIS- tops it alot, and becomes equal to my parent's death. Our child, who didn't even get the chance to live a life outside, is dead. How did you expect me to react?
I didn't have a nice week. How would I be able to? In fact, I got wounded several times, my ship ripped into pieces and I didn't care. Instead I waited for the next aviable guardian to go on duty again. All I feel is cold void. Numbness, if you wish to call it so.
Anyways. If you want to speak about it, I am at home right now.
I would lie, when I say, I am surprised. Your delay made me already expect, that something might have happened. However, I cannot promise that I will be able to be there, tomorrow, but I will try.
my apologize for the delayed message, though my duties, and the following consequences of being a navy pilot at the wrong time, and the wrong place, kept, and still keep me away from my appartment.
Would thursday, the same time, fit into your schedules?

Despite me already having quite the busy day here with my organization (diplomacy and stuff, bureaucratic gobbledygook), I will try to be there. Should be able to make it if there isn't an emergency or some sh*t again like last time.
