[ Some time around 7am, cause he knows you're all probably up around then, you all get a text from Brig. ]

Hey, everyone. I've been requested by Chief Eli to accompany him to the US for an extended engagement. It'll be a month long, give or take. I know it's a bit sudden but I only found out this morning as well.

I'm free to meet and hang for the day if any of your aren't doing anything. It'll be awhile before I get to again. If not, stay safe and I'll see you all soon.

P.S.
Particularly to the Hounds, if any engagements come up: I know you guys have it covered. But (again) stay safe, come back alive, and make it rain. Keep me posted if you can so I don't worry too much.

-------------------------
General OOC notes:
+ At 7am when he texts: he'll be finishing breakfast with J and K. He's cabbing them to the Arcanum and school respectively after but will be free after 8am for anyone who wants to meet up.:)
+ He's pretty much set aside the day for anyone and everyone. Training isn't a thing today, he expects he'll have a lot of spare time overseas. Today's about family and extended!family.
+ He sends the personal group message above to the Hounds, Cindy, An'yu and his family.
+ He puts up general, formal posts on GEISTnet, LOGOSnet, and MAYAnet that he will be away overseas with Wiseman Tagabigay for those who aren't family or extended!family.

Dang. Might not be able to catch up. I'm outside Kaiser Delcroix's office right now; then headed over to Magistrate Shinta next. Have to inform them both about my leave. Here's hoping they don't bite my head off for accepting before requesting permission from them.

[ Still awkward. Getting used to it. avoiding time paradox. will not use lineface :|]

lololololololol time paradox averted!

it's aight, man :))

we'll have text and if words don't work there's always
calling. just take care, okay? and i don't think they will.
wiseman tagabigay asked for you. this is pretty important.

[ He knows he can't really complain. Given his schedule at Rhiannon and dealing with school, it's a rarity enough that he catches you. Still, you're like family now and he's going to be keeping you in his thoughts. ]

Thanks, Josh. The reassurance helps. It's not my usual schtick but it's a direction I need to work on anyway. Can't be the Chief's second on this thing if my most effective skill is just hitting things.

[ That makes him laugh. ]
