Yes, thank you. [Caitlyn's not sure she could manage to drink anything just now, but it would be rude to refuse, wouldn't it? The last thing she wants, during this conversation of all conversations, is to be rude.] Tea? Or water, if you haven't any.
[And then she sighs, short and sharp, immediately back to thinking about Vi and the ways in which things went wrong between them, and how she could right everything the next time they meet.]
We'd just met with the Council to present evidence of Silco's crimes. They opted for a more diplomatic approach than she had hoped for, and she stormed out. She was angry with them. With topside. The way the Council treated her-- [Another sharp little sigh.] She was speaking out of anger. After everything we've been through together, I can't believe she truly wants nothing to do with me. Even if she doesn't return my feelings, there's no reason we can't be in each others' lives.
