[Read: he'd as soon chop off his hands as contact Dagger himself.]
FROM: wilson.simon@cdc.org Jack, she could be anywhere. She could be injured, or more likely trapped. She's not on my tracking. _I_ don't need to know where she is, but I want to be sure the people who should know, do.
[It's the Level 1 thing. It might not come with much authority, and it might have been revoked, but it means November's listened to where Simon certainly won't be.]
FROM: wilson.simon@cdc.org TO: 11.november@cdc.org Things you don't need to. I see. Well, it's your team and your business, not mine.
FROM: wilson.simon@cdc.org I want it on record, though, that I came to you about a missing crew member, one I can't contact or locate, one in which the CDC has an investment. _You_ wrote her off.
FROM: wilson.simon@cdc.org Take it from me, they much prefer us alive than dead. But it's your call. If you say there's no problem, who am I to argue?
FROM: 11.november@cdc.org TO: wilson.simon@cdc.org
Correction: not my team. I'm on it, but Dagger just so happens to be the instructor.
FROM: 11.november@cdc.org TO: wilson.simon@cdc.org
Do you feel better now that you've gotten that off your chest? There's no proof she's missing or otherwise.
FROM: 11.november@cdc.org TO: wilson.simon@cdc.org
For the record, I don't appreciate this being somehow my fault. I'm not the one overreacting, nor am I the one reporting it to a fellow recruit, rather than an instructor.

Yes, she _might_ be. She _could_ be. I'm sure she is, in fact.
She might also be dead. I don't know if you've noticed that we're not exactly on a beach in the Canary Islands. I am concerned.

I'm sure she's glad for your concern, wherever she is. Your concern, however, is rather pointless, unless you plan on doing something with it.
More to the point: have you forgotten where we are and who we work for, currently?

Ah ha, I see. I'm Red Team, Mr Wilson– I know better than to nose into things I don't need to.
[People listen to him? Since when? November was a team lead on MI6, but the idea of having other people looking up to him...well, he's not enthused.]

TO: wilson.simon@cdc.org
What makes you think I should know this? We shared a team, that's all.

Call it pragmatism. They listen to you. They don't listen to me. And yes, I know that's my fault.
But it isn't hers. Please.

It still seems like overreaction under the guise of pragmatism. Moreover, you should know by now that attempting to guilt me isn't going to work.

So you think there is no problem, and that I shouldn't report concerns I have?
I trust your judgement. It's possible I am overreacting. It's also possible her location should be confirmed, isn't it?
no subject
TO: wilson.simon@cdc.org
You trust my judgment and in the same sentence, you question it. How contradictory.

Humans are. [Zing. Totally ineffective, but it felt good.]
I'm just trying to cover all possibilities. I'm leaving it with you now. Do as you see fit.

Your sufferance, I suppose.
[and he's not answering the latter half. As far as he's concerned (which isn't much at all), this conversation has run its course.]
