Diaries.

[Rodent]

Been a while since I wrote in this. A lot of things have happened.

Firstly...Vice Admiral Defmir died, due to an illness. It's...crushingly depressing how strong a person can get and yet be taken down by the smallest of small, the virus. Her funeral was a private affair, I heard. If someone watches from above, may he have mercy on her soul.

Natalie Cahoone disappeared for a while, for reasons I do not really know. I did hear that she was undergoing some sort of counseling, and she recently got re-instated in the navy. She's as bitchy as ever. Heh, I've gotten used to it though. It's even amusing at times.

Remus...Remus Sius got shot and had some sort of operation. I haven't seen Hartman in a while....listed as MIA...

And to top it all off, I ran into some nomads. I was wishing that would never happen again....Fighting those things was a damned nightmare the first time around. Funny thing is, they did not shoot, or attempt to delve into my mind...instead asking of permission to...uh, meld with me. I declined, of course. Despite how friendly the two baby nomads may have seemed, trust is a valuable commodity these days....

When I got into a call with Patrick and shared all that, he pretty much exploded in anger. This is an argument me and my younger brother have often had....He keeps urging me to 'put down the damn letter already.'

A part of me wishes to. Seen enough, and now that the wars are picking up again, friends will start dying again...it's tempting, to just retire and sit out this war on the sidelines, cheering those who are fighting...but can I live with that?

I don't know.
