Hi, everybody.

I did not get a chance to tell Captain Agathon about the Nexus. His daughter, Hera, was kidnapped by the enemy Cylons. Galactica is going on a rescue mission, and I'll be helping in the medical bay.

I'll be okay! I have my PINpoint. But I wanted to send a message, because I've been locked out of the Nexus before, and I didn't want anyone to worry while I was gone.

Thank you to every one of you who listened to me and offered me advice. I would not have survived this long as a refugee without all your kindness and generosity. You are some of the best friends I have ever had.

I wanted you to know that. How special you are to me.

xo,
Adia

She wishes she could believe him, that everything will work out without her there. But so many people have already died. She has to intervene somehow.

I know this is not what you want for me. I'm sorry.

Never in her wildest dreams did she think that if push came to shove between her and Reynard, she would be the one to hurt him with her decisions.

I have my PINpoint. I've been in situations like this before. If it gets really bad, I'll leave. I promise.

Yelling at his PINpoint won't help, he reminds himself, but typing feels so… useless. It kills him that this is all he has to convince her with.

It's too much of a risk. This isn't worth it. You have a life in the Nexus don't throw it away.

I'm not throwing it away, she wants to type. How is helping others throwing her life away? Hadn't he compared her to that nurse from his own world? Did she waste her time helping all those soldiers, giving them a light in the darkness?

She sighs and runs a hand through her hair. If something does happen, she doesn't want their last exchange to be an argument. She can't change his mind, any more than he can change hers.

An alarm sounds from outside the supply closet. Galactica is getting ready to jump.

I have to go now. I'll come to the Nexus as soon as I can. See you then.
