Private message to Juhani

...if Vindi had the slightest idea how to handle Notras Khutonax, I wouldn't be watching them on the monitors, making googly eyes at one another behind the other's backs.

Have you noticed it? Ahsaala and Battis think I'm crazy.

Private Message to HereToHelp Confident and respectful: Thank you for responding, Ms. Rondor. Bluntly informative: The child in question is human, a male of around 11-12 Earth years, with a slender build, dark scalp fur, a slim face and pale brown eyes. His given name is Alonso Cutri, but it's highly unlikely he's using it. With careful and measured tone: I did not want to announce this to the board as a whole, as discretion will serve best in this matter. Further, I have not yet made my presence known on the forums. Reasonable satisfaction: Your assistance in this matter is appreciated.

Private Message to Lyra Palmer Ms Palmer,

My thanks to you and your workers, I have transferred the remaining payment to your account and will have the frigate moved from your docks as soon as possible. Should I ever need repairs, which is highly likely in our line of work, I will not hesitate to contact you.

My thanks again.

Private Message to user "Ana'Therion" Ms. Ana'Therion,

While perusing the boards, it came to my attention that you may in the market for a legitimate Veneer table to replace your previous one. If you wish, I could procure the names of several legitimate dealers on the Illium for you.

I can be reached either via a private message on the forums or, for the next 72 hours, [this number].

Sincerely,
Cerastes S.

Reply to user: Cerastes Cerastes:

I suppose I should try to find a replacement - it's my fault the original's broken. Any information you can provide would be useful. Feel free to include knockoffs as long as they're convincing.

How much do you want for a comprehensive retailer list?

Private Message to user "Ana'Therion" Ms. Ana'Therion,

Twenty credits or a small favor will do. I will have a list of both legitimate and "convincing" sources ready in ten minutes.

Sincerely,
Cerastes S.

Reply to user: Cerastes Deal. COD the data and I'll auto-transfer the credits.

Thanks.

Private Message to user "Ana'Therion" Ms. Ana'Therion,

Of course. The lists are organized into two columns in the attached document - should you require any assistance, I will be available for much of the evening.

If you visit either Mr. Landiel or Ms. Valchez's store, I would push hard while haggling; they foil quickly under pressure. Good luck.

Sincerely,
Cerastes S.

"Private Message to Aleksander Harris"
Aleks, I'm visiting London for holiday. Would you like to meet up? Where would you recommend we stay?

"Private Message to Sarah Thompson"Sarah,

Good to see you're coming down to the slightly-less broken down part of the country of all places! There's a place called the Hand and Flowers just on the edge of what used to be Trafalgar Square. It's been cleaned up nicely, and it's rather good for it's size (you might want to make sure you get a double room for you and yours, the single rooms are remarkably cramped without them trying to squeeze a double bed in).

They've also prioritised the area for clean-up, so it's at least a decent area of the city to be in. Just don't listen to anyone saying you should find Nelson's Column, they still haven't put the replacement one up yet. Money troubles, what a surprise. Anyway, when you get settled in, give me a call and I'll head on over. I think I still know a couple of places that have been mostly done up since the end of the war.

See you in London,

Aleks

Email to Alliance Account #867DT931, Natalie J. KingHey,

Saw your post on CDN about Christmas gifts for Hope. (I totally support the whole art thing, btw :p) If you're looking for a recommendation, this is one of my favorite suppliers. You can use my [code], if you'd like - they give me some wicked discounts, so don't let the prices scare you too much.

This is me pleading with you not to let my goddaughter use less-than-worthy art materials, in case you havent't figured that out already :p

...And on the topic of gifts, I haven't the faintest clue what to get an asari infant. I have to send them out tonight for them to get to Prime by Christmas Eve, but Shiori is kinda stumping me, and your bondmate isn't much help. :( Anything you guys need?

Happy Holidays!
Halley

PS: Keep an eye on Mike for me? I'm not going to be able to make it out there, and he's not going to take that very well...

Email to Halley LacailleHey

Thanks, I appreciate the code. I'd hate for Hope to get unworthy art supplies. It should be good for her-psychologist said it might help her process her emotions healthily or something (we've got her going to yet another one).

As for Shiori, just get her a colourful toy or clothes. She likes bright things at the moment. I'm getting her an elf costume. Kaseka isn't impressed :P Spoilsport. (Yep, I'm keeping the pics to tease Shiori with when she thinks I'm uncool.)

And sure, I'll keep an eye on him. Pity you can't get here, I know Kaseka and Hope especially would like to see you, but good luck with everything, Halley.

Have a good one.

-Nat

Email to Alliance Account #867DT931, Natalie J. KingEh, Kaseka needs to smile more - and I demand you send holos long before Shiori decides anyone is 'uncool' - she must look so cute :)

Everything should get there by Christmas Eve...hopefully. I wish I could make it out for the holidays - Spirits, I miss you all, but, as is, I'll be out there sometimes in the next few months. Shuttle prices are disgusting this time of year, and I'm really not all that trusting of the scalpers who say they have 'pre-war ticket pricing'. Bah. Crisse mangeux d'marde.

...And what happened with Hope's last psych? I thought she liked Dr. Kolin - this has gotta be, what, her third psychologist in five months, or something? :( I'll see if I can't sync my schedule to Prime's a bit more - I haven't talked to her in awhile, she's always at school when I call to talk with Kaseka.

And...thanks, for keeping an eye on Mike. I know personnel is your job anyway, but it means a lot to know someone's there to make sure he doesn't pull stupid stunts, you know?

Sincerely,
Halley

Email to Halley LacailleI or Kaseka will send you a few pics-she's grown a little since the last time you saw her. She's started smiling, which may be the most adorable thing I've ever seen (not that I'm biased or nothing). Kaseka does need to lighten up a little sometimes, but she's a bit stressed, with...well, everything. Least she's not working as much anymore; she'd probably implode.

Yeah, gotta watch out for the scams. Well keep safe and enjoy yourself over the holiday season, alright? It can be a bit tough at this time of year but yeah. Well I'm sure the kids will look forward to seeing you of you get over here sometime. Maybe you can paint a little with Hope :P

As for Hope, I have no clue. She was reacting better to her, but then all of a sudden she was refusing to go anymore. Crying, throwing a tantrum, the whole ten yards. We've got her going to another child psychologist now. She seems to be okay with it right now, so I'm hoping this guy will be able to help her. Maybe it's Christmas? She's been withdrawn lately. I dunno. But I do reckon she'd appreciate talking to you. Might be good for you to have a chat to her.

It's no problem to keep an eye on him.

"Query to RememberTheBlitz"
What's with all of the neo-marxists in the fringes?

PM To Vindetti Guerra Hello Vindi. Vohkaidin Knox here. Just messaging you to give you to ask if a teenager named Nex has stopped by the rifle range. Kid's a Sundowner, carrying a large bag, lots of tattoos? Seemed like a nice enough kid, but really green around the ears. Says he hailed from somewhere called the Bronze Coast?

Anyway, gave him the best directions I could, and sent him on his way. Just checking to make sure he safely made his way to your family.

PM To Julian Snow
Snow, where the fuck are you? You were supposed to be remanded to my custody at Tayseri dock 17B. In the even you have not wormed your way off the station, get back to me so I don't have to waste time and money figuring out where you are.

PM To Sarah Thompson
Sarah, this is Vohkaidin. I need a big favor, are you free? I'm stuck on Tayseri for a few hours and need someone on Zakera. Get back to me ASAP
