Most of them are my crew. I don't think he gets along with most of them

[ UNDERSTANDABLE as that is, it's a still a source of slight pain. It's hard when your SO disapproves of your buddies, man. ]

He mentions Flame Princess a lot.

[ THIS IS REALLY BAD... ]

Maybe we could go through the network and see if we're missing anyone?

[khajidont]

Maybe Kasumi? She seems nice. And I think I saw him and Ellie and Isaac talking so those are two more?

[Oh, no... they're really bad at this. He could make a post on the network, but Jaime doesn't doubt that there are people who'd crash that Kaidan wouldn't like.

He doesn't doubt there are people out there Kaidan doesn't like, and they have no idea.]

FIVE MINUTES LATER...

[khajidont]

It feels really weird e-stalking him

[sassguard]

He does seem to know them pretty well. We can invite them. And I'll ask Kasumi to behave.

[sassguard]

Of course it's going to feel weird if you call it e-stalking.

[khajidont]

That's what it is! Calling it something else won't change that.

Ooookay so that's you, me, Fire Princess (is that her real name or is that a nickname), Ellie, Isaac and Kasumi?

[Ellie and Isaac aren't party people, Jaime doesn't know what Flame Princess is like, and Kaidan's Kaidan.

Oh god, maybe this is a bad idea.]

Is that it?

Is he going to like this?

[sassguard]

It's called doing research.

And that's her ID on the network. I don't really know if she goes by anything else. There's also Edward Elric.

[ He doesn't think Olivier's much of one for parties, especially not now. When Jaime puts it like that, though... ]

He works a lot harder than I do at reaching out to people. That can't be right.

[khajidont]

Okay there's Ed... That's a lot of people who were at your meeting. Major ? Olivier [She's scary. It's almost as if she'll come and grab him if he addresses her wrong, even in a text to an unrelated party.] And that dark haired guy were there too. The one Edward was arguing with?

[sassguard]

Major General, technically. [ A weird rank, honestly. ] And that was Colonel Mustang.

That's enough people for a party, isn't it?

[khajidont]

I think so. Do you want to text them or should I?

[sassguard]

It would probably be faster if we split it up.

[khajidont]

I'll take Ellie and Isaac

[THEY'RE EASY.]

And Flame Princess I guess? You can tell the people in your crew and all those other military guys.

You can help pay for the food right?

[sassguard]

I can cover all of it. You're providing the place, and I've been working a lot of overtime recently.

[khajidont]

Are you sure? This will probably be the biggest part of my present for him so I don't mind chipping in. If you do though I can at least pick up some decorations

[He just doesn't have enough money to feed biotics. You pigs!]

[sassguard]

It's fine. I've been working a lot of overtime anyway.
