‘I . . . Michael?’
You know it. I heard you mention a friend of mine.
‘Susan Chen?’
You know, I think she may have known, deep down, about what the Ghosts did to preserve her crewmates. She kept going even so. Doing the best she could. And she never gave up faith in me. In us. She would speak my name, at times. As if she was praying.
‘Did you speak to her?’
A couple of times. What’s the harm? I told you, Jophiel. Reality leaks. If you can do a good turn because of it, why not?
