Old Acquaintances, New Favors

[Remnant]

Tara Snow leans back in her chair. It's been too long since she'd seen the name glaring at her from the terminal in front of her. Despite the Commonwealth database being.. Rather old at this point, it seemed like the contact information was still up to date. However unlike words almost branded on her screen from the old document, things have changed. People have grown older. Personalities have warped. Be it for the better, or worse.

Hesitantly stretching her hands out, a message would slowly be input into the terminal. One which she didn't want to make, but as time passed. It was becoming more and more of a necessity.

Ellie Lillian,

It's been a long time. I'm hoping that you're still using this Neural Network account. You may remember me as Tara Snow a long while back. I understand that I'm coming out of the blue with this, but if you have any fond remembrance of what used to be, I'd like to invite you over for a drink. Given that this may be rather abrupt, I don't intend on making any grand flourishes or play with fancy words like A-Chilly used to do back in the day. Although that being said, I'd like to catch up.

We're around Gran Canaria. Look for a vessel named the Sirens Bell. We'll be keeping an eye out for you. I.. Hope you're doing alright.

It was short. It was simple. But it was all that she could say. Ellie, historically, was always a rather.. Oddball. Would she still care? Would she be interested? After all, Tara was simply an old name of many from the days of the commonwealth.

Well. Perhaps the call would be answered.

Until then, it looked like she'd need to stock up on some more alcohol.
