Sorry, didn't mean to interrupt your party.

[phonetically]

You didn't. You sent an update. Everyone and their sheriff mother decided to chime in. Also my dad, who's now in a group text with me. Still processing and censoring that.

You need to talk?

[pastlives]

Probably will but I think I need to get there first and actually see the damage. Plus you're at your party.

Let me get them out of the Aquarium and get them settled and if it's not too late I'll give you a call.

[phonetically]

We're partners, whether or not I'm at a party. But, if you want my undivided, sober, attention, later might be better.

I still do want to hear about the aquarium when you get the chance. If only because, that makes a better story than just - woke up somewhere.

[pastlives]

Sober might be better, it's a little bit of a head trip.

Believe it or not, this isn't Duke's first time spontaneously appearing in a tank at the Boston Aquarium, though I wasn't really around to rescue him the last time.

I've had a head trip before. You're in good company.

Two stories in one. Fly safe. Is someone meeting you on the ground there?

Agent Earp has agreed to try and get there to help.

Do you know much about her? Or Black Badge? She seems friendly enough but that always doesn't matter depending on who you report to.

[phonetically]

Okay. You need me for anything else, you tell me. I'm still down in Virginia.

I only know as much as you know, but she's helped some people out I know. Leads with a smile.

You need me to do a deep dive into Black Badge?

[pastlives]

Might be worth doing. They're not ARGUS but there's chances they could be ARGUS-adjacent, and I want to know how much I'm getting into.

[phonetically]

I'll do a little digging and get back to you.
