And if she doesn't?

[ Everyone says that. Everyone fails. ]

[It's a lesson that will break him before he learns it.]

FROM: barnes.james@cdc.org

Where is she now?

[daggertype]

[ Dagger will be right here to watch it happen. ]

FROM: dagger@cdc.org

Can't tell you. But you'll know if she gets back.

FROM: barnes.james@cdc.org

Understood.

[daggertype]

[ You want comforting, find a pillow. ]

FROM: dagger@cdc.org

FROM: barnes.james@cdc.org
