…It was hard for him not to wrap everything and fly to Adarlon.
He'd almost forgotten what it was like to have an impulse. Much less to actually consider it.
When the note appeared, he'd been in the middle of a semi-clandestine meeting with a source. He simply snapped it up and stuffed it in his pocket without looking at it.
From that moment, though, he found—to his… some emotion—his objective wasn't really success of the mission anymore. It was getting enough closure to be able to go off on his own and read the note.
Can't we all. Yes. And he didn't know her, had no mental image of her, was only assuming it was a her (Cassian had had occasions to wear lipstick and hairpins himself), yet somehow got a mental image of them comforting each other. Sitting on the ledge of something leaning against each other's shoulders.
As usual, couldn't respond with anything of substance. Just wanted to keep the lines open.
He have a name?
Friend of mine had a great-aunt with four tookas. My friend got to name one of them. Their names wound up 'Taffy', 'Fluffy', 'Muffy', and 'AT-AV'.
