Sixty-Fifth Theory [Video]
[The video feed clicks on, and Don looks thoughtfully at the camera for a moment before speaking.]
Another Christmas in Luceti.
[His tone is direct, just stating a fact, but somewhere behind it is a note of melancholy.]
This is my third. All of them have been in this house. All of them have been with different people.
[He slides back from the journal, revealing a corner of his winter room. He's been gradually moving into it over the past week, and has more or less taken up residence now.]
I've seen a lot of people come and go. There probably aren't many left who remember when Luceti didn't have electricity.
[He picks up some small bit of tech and squints at it.]
When I arrived here, the drafts were just starting. There were no missions. The Battle Dome didn't exist. We didn't have a farm and there was a desert where the ocean is now.
[He carefully threads a length of wire through a hole in the tech part.]
The buildings were shorter. Some of the stores and restaurants weren't open. [A pause.] I think I'm forgetting things...
[The wire slides through, and he knots the loose ends to form a loop.]
Does anyone remember other things that have changed? Or, does anyone want a history lesson? I'll be here all day.

[He thought she was aware.]

Without missing a beat:]
I'll come there, then, if it's alright.

[to action?]
[And by the time she knocks at the door, she's bundled up against the cold herself, with a warm coat and a thick scarf.]
