To: Avery Reeves

[Jeremy Hunter]

Avery...remember when I mentioned to you a week or two ago, about that lovely wife you had? And how, if something...miraculous...happened, I'd be calling you? Well, I hope you have vacation time saved up. Because you clearly forgot something very, very important one night. Very...Very...important. And now, as I semi-retire her to chip-eating on your couch once it really kicks in around July, someone has to replace her. And I warned you, Avery.

You didn't heed me.

Welcome to the Order, Vizier One

May you ever walk in the Light, Shizune.

SUBJECT: Erh...
ENCRYPTION: HIGH
PRIORITY: -

----------

I do recall what you said. And believe me when I say what happened wasn't 'accounted' for. Nevertheless I did give you my word and I do owe it to her so my abilities are yours to use until she's able to step back into duty. I do have a butt-load of vacation time saved up from giving up my own medical leave days twice in a row. Granted my time isn't unlimited, I'll still do my best to make do.
I'll get the access codes to her ship from her and pat the dust off my unaffiliated flight suit and get to it as soon as you need me to.

Regards.

Avery Reeves
Lieutenant Commander, First Fleet
Liberty Navy
