[03:13] TT: "umm? who is it?"

[03:13] AA: "IT IS US, PRINCE MERROW."

[03:14] AA: (( "y-yeah, 'it is us' w-would have b-been fine? n-no one else t-talks like that?" ))

"Aw, you've seen me drunk. No need to stand on ceremony."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:17] AA: "I wanted to talk about a couple of things. For example..." He pulls out his phone.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:18] AA: "Looks like you had an interesting chat with 'me' recently?"

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:18] <span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#a15000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">TT: "oh r-right, t-that?" she looks a bit embarrassed

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:20] AA: "I *could* choose to be irritated with you for playing along with Mavico's plan." He stares at her significantly for a moment, then sighs. "But I'm a little more worried about this 'he barely acknowledges me these days' part."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:20] AA: "Have you felt like I've been neglecting our friendship, Miloko?"

Or are you just avoiding the conversation?" He looks genuinely sympathetic.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:24] <span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#a15000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">TT: "I g-guess I f-feel l-like I've b-been r-replaced? or s-something?" she sighs

"I suppose I have been....distracted lately. Between my newly filled quadrants and everything that's been going on lately."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:26] AA: "But you've seemed happier than I've ever seen you with Darmok. So I didn't think you might be feeling neglected."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:27] <span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#a15000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">TT: "I am? but he s-still has o-other t-things to do, b-besides be w-with me?"

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:29] AA: Merrow sighs. "I should be including you more on the things I've been doing. This isn't solely an Alternian operation. I guess Queen Beau hasn't been keeping you and your sister as in the loop as the Condesce has been keeping me?"

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:30] <span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#a15000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">TT: "I h-haven't s-seen her in a w-while? I m-mean I d-don't t-thing she e-even k-knows a-about t-this?" she holds up her ringbearing hand

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:31] <span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#a15000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">TT: *think

I know you've always had a bit of an odd relationship with her, considering your feelings toward your heritage versus hers....but then again, I had an icy relationship with the Condesce until very recently as well."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:34] <span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#a15000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">TT: "y-yeah but you h-have t-that c-commanding p-presence t-thing g-going on? me?

"You've gotten better, you know? You're coming out of your shell, little by little."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:37] <span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#a15000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">TT: "erm, not r-really?"

Who snuck into the Commander's office and got drunk with me, Darmok, and Acenia? Well....just me and Darmok, I guess."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:39] <span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#a15000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">TT: "I o-only w-went a-along b-because D-Darmok w-wanted me to f-follow?"

Like if I had tried to get you to do it?"

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:41] <span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#a15000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">TT: "umm, I d-don't k-know?

Maybe I misread the situation then." Merrow shrugs.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:43] AA: "I also came in here to ask your help on something, actually."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:48] <span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#a15000;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">TT: "i-information o-officer?"

She is apparently an impressive gatherer of information, and has been studying patrons of her mother's shows for years."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:50] AA: "...anyway, the Commanders Heston and Aggaro were once quite the item. Hugely red for one another. Then Darmok came along..."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:50] AA: Merrow sighs. "Aggaro followed the Highblood traditions, maybe even more than most Highbloods. Heston saw it as abuse and never forgave him for it."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:51] AA: "Not that I've forgiven him for it either."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:51] AA: Merrow looks a little pissed for a moment.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:52] AA: "But she still has feelings for him. And he clearly still has feelings for her. And..." he shakes his head. "...I don't know. I don't know if I want them to get back together. I don't know if the Commander SHOULD be forgiven..."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:52] AA: "...but I think it would do Commander Heston a lot of good if Aggaro understood what he had done to make her so angry, and tried to make it right."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:53] AA: "...and after she more or less saved my relationship with Acenia, and yours with Darmok, I felt like we kind of owe her."

I was hoping you might have some ideas."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:54] AA: Merrow sighs. "The best I can think of is to talk to Aggaro, and I..." he looks pained for a moment. "...I'm not sure I'm thrilled at the prospect."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:54] AA: "Nor do I think it would do a lot of good.

Merrow looks for a moment like he's trying to think of a way of backpeddling, but then his head sags. "Commander Aggaro is my father."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#b11262;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[03:56] AA: "Genetically."
