 [08:52] AA: Sami comes running up to Beau, short of breath. "Beau!"

 [08:52] CA: "Hello Sami!"...

 [08:53] CA: Beau is just finishing wrapping up his chess set...

 [08:53] CA: "Is something wrong?"...

 [08:53] AA: "Beau, I'm sorry I didn't know about this beforehand, or I would've told you about it"

 [08:54] CA: "What happened?"...

 [08:54] AA: "Maenam just told me our kids are in danger, and Libby has offered to send us to them."

 [08:54] AA: "But....I don't know how long I'll be gone."

 [08:54] AA: She looks sad.

 [08:54] AA: "But obviously I have to go. And you can't."

 [08:55] AA: "I'm sorry I have to go like this." She really does look upset about it.

 [08:55] CA: The smile melts off his face. "...oh"...

 [08:55] AA: "...yeah. But we should still be able to PM, right?"

 [08:56] CA: "Well, that is quite alright Sami, the children are important to the session"...

 [08:56] CA: "And yes, we will hopefully stay in touch"...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [08:56] AA: "Not just hopefully! I'll message you all the time!"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [08:56] AA: "Even if it doesn't go through at first because we're too far away or something. I'll keep trying until I hear back from you!"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [08:56] CA: "I will miss you Sami, but this is a day I knew was going to come eventually. I look forward to your messages"...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [08:57] AA: "I'm sorry. I wish we had more time, so we could have a proper goodbye." She stands on her toes and throws her arms around Beau, kissing him.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [08:58] AA: "I love you. And I'll come back as soon as I possibly can to visit you. And to introduce you to your kids!"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [08:59] AA: "I'll keep an eye on your kid with Tlaloc, too! Since you won't be able to. I can be like her stepmom or something."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [08:59] CA: He returns the kiss happily. "I look forward to it. Oh! And before I forget..."...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [09:00] CA: He takes out the His version of the Beau from the chess set Sami made him for Valentines. He hands it to her. "Here, to remember me"...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [09:00] AA: She smiles, and clutches it to her chest for a moment as if treasuring it. "Like I need any help to remember you!" But she captchalogs the piece anyway.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [09:01] CA: "Good luck, make sure the kids eat their vegetables and do their homework."...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [09:01] CA: He gives her another kiss...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [09:02] AA: "I will. Goodbye for now, Beau."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [09:02] CA: "Until we meet again"...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [09:03] AA: Sami makes to leave, but as she gets to the door, she turns back around and stares at Beau for a little while, a sad look in her eyes. Then she inhales and sighs, and turns back to run off.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [09:05] CA: Beau sits down in his chair as the door closes, and looks at the now incomplete chess set. He sighs as well...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [09:05] CA: He picks up the Sami piece and holds it to his chest and captchalouges it...
