This is Brendan Frye. If it's urgent, you might have a better chance o' tracking me down on foot. If I'm not answering, chances are I've gotten in over my head with something, not that I'm refusin' to give you the time of day. So leave me some words and I'll get back to you as soon as I don't have a fire to put out.

There's a surprise. Does that mean I can't invite you to go drinking or do you just need to be more careful where?

[Your priorities, Veronica.]

He sounds like a good guy, though, otherwise. More competent than other cops if he passed your standards. [Nothing like JD, she thinks. He doesn't sound like a cool and collected trenchcoat-wearing badass, doesn't sound like someone unhinged who would go on a murder spree.] You've got to keep him.

But if anything happens because of him, let me know, all right?

more careful where. and i reserve the right to cancel if he and i have something romantic planned. we have the dorkiest dates, i love it. last time we went to an arts and crafts festival.

[It doesn't get much dorkier than that.] he is. both a good guy and the most competent cop i know, although the bar was set really low back home for that kinda thing. he's a sweetheart and i hate that word but it works in his case.

if anything bad happens it'll probably be because of me, but i'll let you know either way.

Got it. And that is so ridiculously adorable I'm kind of surprised I'm not vomiting rainbows right now. Have you gone to Disneyland yet, because I feel like that'd just be the epitome of adorably dorky dates.

He does sound like one. I kind of want to meet him now.

You're not that bad, you know. You're a good person. [Not like her.]

i'm, um, no lie i'm planning on surprising him with tickets to disney world for christmas. just him and me and somewhere good and happy, for the holiday i usually hate the most. it'd be nice.

he'd probably like to meet some of my friends. outside of the baby quoll we kind of adopted together, i mean. and our dog.

i'm not that bad HERE. i was a one-man trainwreck back home. i don't really deserve to be this happy, and i keep waiting for something to bring it all toppling down. i definitely don't deserve the boyfriend i have. it's kind of fucked up, isn't it? that my girlfriend back home died just before i got here, and now i'm with somebody else like she didn't mean a thing?
