Callaghan likely has some professional-sounding voicemail message that I am too lazy at the moment to write up.

But the gist is 'leave a message, and I'll get back to you when I can'.

I've been keeping busy. Between working with the institute, the small business, and our new guest...I think I forgot how much I enjoy having my hands full, to be honest.

And you?

Good. Having purpose makes a lot of things easier to bear. You volunteered to house one of the kedan, correct?

[He considered doing so, but he has something of a reputation.]

Well enough. A good friend from my old unit has arrived in the city.

The Hamadas and I did as a group. I have the feeling that if we had more room, 'we'd' have offered to host the lot.

[probably the better they don't, to be honest.]

Lucky you- I fell out of touch with most of mine, but I had some friends back there. What's their name?

Erskine. Erskine Ravel. He's a touch fragile; came in at a bad time. It's been a while since we spoke, before now, at least for me.

It's good to hear the Hamada brothers are adjusting. Do let me know if any of you need a hand with anything.

Ah. Hopefully, he'll improve for the circumstances.

That said, if you know a decent food market in the sector, I'm listening. I'd just gotten used to where things were in Metal.

Not in Sky Sector, unfortunately; it's still too new a place. But there are some good lanes for it in the sectors adjacent, near the border.

[He give out the addresses.]

That'll do for now. Tadashi's smart enough, but Hiro'd eat nothing but junk if he had the chance. And here I thought I was done raising kids.

[his voice is dry, but he doesn't seem unhappy with this turn of events.]

[gistful]

Those who are willing to raise kids never finish.

[But there's a smile in his tone.]

You're not wrong.

Anything else you need, Anton?

No. Have a good day, Professor.
