16th Devotion: The Path not Taken

[favoritetraitor]

Such a shame...

Although I have to say that things have turned out better than I possibly could have hoped. I can't help but to feel a slight remiss at having to abandoned the various plans I had in store...

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't trade how things are for anything in the world. All is right once again. But it certainly would have been interesting to see what I might have done...

That being said, I have a message to Dr. Disraeli, and also to Lilith Sahl, I intend to resume my duties full time by the end of this week. I just need a few days to change my living situation recover fully.

I'm looking forward to getting back to work. Thank you for being patient with me... thank you to everyone for being patient with me.

Ah--Thank the Lord. Are you feeling a lot better, Doctor Solomon?

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Yes, thank you... much better.

[holymadonna.livejournal.com]

I look forward your return into the personnel.

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Thank you Lilith... I apologize if I worried you.

May I ask... What you were planning last night?

[He smiles, face pleasant to hide the knowledge of the previous evening darker events.]

Oh, it's nothing worth mentioning...

[He swore he'd never lie to her, but it didn't mean he had to disclose everything...]

I see... [She fidgets with a loose thread on her sleeve, uncertain of what to say.]

[He could see discomfort in her body language. She might suspect... but the knowledge of his exact intents would only serve to hurt her, something he couldn't allow.]

Saya, why don't you come sit with me? I'd like to show you some things I've gathered together...

Plans such as?

It hardly matters, my friend...

[lel0uch.livejournal.com]

You wouldn't have referred to it otherwise, if it didn't. This is, of course, just my curiosity speaking.

I was merely toying with finding a way out...

Toying with finding a way out? Do you have obligations left unfinished?

Obligations?

Something wrong?

[ooc: *reminds self to get back on tagging that thread. Sorry I'm so slow! ]

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

No, I wouldn't say that anything is wrong anymore. I've simply taken a detour onto a much nicer path...

[deadlyhealing.livejournal.com]

Very well. Then I shall see you once again at the laboratory at the end of the week.

Plans may always be altered.

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Altered? What did you have in mind?

I understand there are certain areas of research you no longer are interested in, however I may pursue them in my own time, as I must say I am intrigued by the possibilities.

Private // Unhackable

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Oh, really.

I... might not mind having some sort of input into such research. For pure curiosity sake, mind you. Just not active participation as I had originally planned, just to be clear.

Private // Unhackable

[deadlyhealing.livejournal.com]

I understand. I was opposed to your active participation in any case, as you may recall.

And of course it shall all be kept strictly confidential.

Private // Unhackable

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Very well. I'll be interested to see what will happen... I should tell you some of my ideas the next time we see each other. They have possibilities...

We should contact our 'friend' to see about acquiring some of the more hard to find supplies.
