DOMINGO, NIKOLA, PHILIP.

I am going to be on the ground starting tomorrow for two or three days. I am currently going alone, which Domingo and Nikola disagree with. I am grudgingly open to suggestions on how to increase my security to ease unnecessary worries without an escort.

EVA.

I'm going down to see Mamá tomorrow and will be gone for a few days.

RONEN - after he's agreed to an escort.

I'll be gone for a few days. You're in charge. Don't make me regret it.

I have to go. Keep working on him, please.

With pleasure.

Dankjewel.

I've been trying all weekend.

All weekend.

I didn't want to tell you until after.

I understand.

[...] I'm not going to press because you are playing planes, but we [...] will discuss this after.

How are you doing? (You may respond after doing whatever it is pilots do.)

Taking a squad to run drills over some volcanoes. Seems appropriate.

I'll find you later.

I'll wait. Please be careful around any bumpkins of diminutive stature you find, I hear they have an important job to complete.

Right now, I’m considering dropping a non-diminutive bumpkin into one, important job be damned.

That can't be good for the environment.

I can always beat him to death with the cane. Say the word.

I feel like an idiot.

You shouldn't.

I do.

Why?

Because I’m his afterthought, Niko.

There is no world where that's true. He wasn't going to tell either of us, Philip, because he wanted to avoid the conflict.

As if there wouldn’t be conflict after the fact.

I know. Just know that this isn't a reflection of your importance to him at all.
