I see... I have returned to this place again.
I can't imagine any reason that I would be sent back here. It's an annoyance, and I wish that the Initiative would make up their minds. There is nothing practical in sending off and retrieving Transports as haphazardly as this.
[Nageki, as stony-faced as ever, stares down at his camera with eyes bearing his normal level of faint disapproval; whether it's relieving, or disturbing, or just completely unfamiliar is entirely up to the viewer. if there's any difference in him at all between when he was last seen and now, he looks a little less tense -- rather, his demeanor is more resigned than anything, like he's already long since accepted whatever will happen now that he's arrived back in Exsilium again.

...Matter. Please, at least allow me to pick one or the other instead of this ridiculous back-and-forth nonsense. Given that any of you even listen to the messages posted on this network, of course.
