[The last time Saul was seen on the network, he was about to choke out a member of the Initiative.

He's calmed down since then.

In fact, the look with which he greets the network is positively cheerful, thought not so much that it takes away from the businesslike atmosphere he's trying to cultivate with this post — he's got work to do, damn it, so he's in the most official-looking room he could find, seated in front of the camera with folded hands. Suit: check, tie: check, pocket square: check.]

This isn't how the story goes, but: good morning, Moon.

For those of you who don't know me, the name's Saul Goodman. I work for the Department of Initiative-Transport Relations with the lovely Queen Medusalith Amaquelin-Boltagon — [He pauses to smirk. What a mouthful, right?] — and a whole slew of other equally lovely folks. We're here to help you in matters concerning Initiative-Transport goings on. Now, here I'd usually take the opportunity to ask you all to lay whatever questions you might have on me, but because things are so crazy right now, the best answer I can give to any question will probably be a confident "I don't know."

We'll update you as we're updated.

Anyway, I'm coming to you today with a request. Lots of people are gearing up to go on supply runs, which is great. Go team. If those of you who've gone on runs already or plan to go could check in with me here and let me know what it is you're bringing back, that'd be super helpful. I'll make a list that everyone can refer back to, so no one has to double-up on fetching supplies that might not be necessary.

[So he might be a little bit worried about the lack of resurrection technology. That might be a thing. He just doesn't want anyone taking unnecessary risks for the sake of DVDs or... or whatever.]

Thanks.

Mr. Silverberg,

Don't break anything.

Also, it would be cool if you could let us know what your actual plans involve, since some semblance of organization would be nice.

Sincerely,

Saul Goodman, on behalf of DITR

Mr. Goodman,

I much prefer Caesar. Mr. Silverberg would be my father.

Also, as I am the one doing the planning, I don't expect anything to be broken that wasn't meant to be. As to the actual plans, they will cover fixing this awful and poor excuse for a base so that it is less liable to lose power and kill us all.

Regards,

Caesar Silverberg

Caesar,

You know you can call me Saul.

Would you mind sharing your plans with the class or at least someone who is knowledgeable about this sort of thing, e.g. Tony Stark?

Best,

Saul

Saul,

You're kind of old, though. I didn't want to be rude in how I addressed you.

[ Old people like formality, right??? ]

The basic idea is to alter the past so we end up with a much better power supply for the base. I already have a team working on research and several engineers looking at plans. No Stark, although that's the second time someone's brought him up. I don't intend to go fishing for uninterested parties, however.

Cordially,

Caesar

Caesar,

I'm gonna ignore that first part.

The idea sounds great. A+. Let me know when this plan is to be set in motion, as they say.

Struggling to type this because of all the arthritis in my kind of old joints and yes I lied about ignoring the first part,

Saul

Venerable Saul,

I would have thought lying beyond you, only then I recalled you are a lawyer.

[ Some stereotypes span worlds, it seems. ]

I'll keep you in the loop for when the first mission gets the go ahead. I will be sure to discover how font size might be increased in these messages to make such future messages far easier to read for your tiring eyes.

Oh so respectfully yours,

Caesar

You Little Smartass,

DON'T MAKE ME COME OVER THERE

I'll do it,

Saul

Old Man,

I can't help but find the threat of you simply existing in the same place I am lackluster.

If you say so,

Caesar
