Doctor Naggar,

I hope this message finds you in a good moment. *He smiles*

Peter has been asking about Benjen. Apparently they had fun the other day. He also mentioned Ben's interest in robotics.
As such, I took a moment to think and I'd like to invite you and your son for a visit on New Astarte Island. The Yuma Robotics Headquarters is found there, so I could arrange for someone to take Ben and Peter on a tour. My son's been there before but I'm sure he'll enjoy the company, while Ben might see what's ahead of him if he sticks to his education. *As he ends that last phrase, he lets out a brief chuckle.*

Moreover, considering your interest in the research for medical applications we're working on at the Aithne Research Academy, also on New Astarte, I could take you to our lab to see what the project is about first-hand and get up to speed.

Signed, Erik Corvin.

She's on a coffee break, adjusting to her new position when she receives the transmission. She smiles, getting a kick out of him using her full name.
Well Hello there, Erik.

I know Ben would love to see that. Of course, I would too. Robotics isn't something I'm versed in so it'll be neat to see something new. While I'm thinking of it, I was out and about yesterday when I came across a bunch of bio-stability monitors.

I don't know if these have a practical use or not but I can bring a couple for the lab. I also have a couple of other goodies I'll bring along.

Let me know when we can meet. I look forward to it.

Smiles!
Doreen

Doreen,

*He's slightly baffled when he hears his first name, although it's not unpleasant, so he finds it fitting to return the favour.*
It's good to see a quick reply. And even more so to hear you're interested in a tour of the Robotics HQ.

As for any equipment you want to bring... that's up to you. *He scratches the back of his head for a second.* We pretty much have everything we thought of being useful here. And, besides, we don't expect you to start working on this project straight away so whatever extra tools you'll need can be brought later.

Well, that's that. If it's alright with your new schedule, I'll expect you both tomorrow evening, after 17:00 Sirius Time. See you soon.

Signed, Erik Corvin.

Hello Again, Erik,

I look forward to this. Ben will too. I'll see you at the lab.
