Mike,
The agency's burning plenty of taxpayer money looking for you. I'm pretty close to just filing a sexual harassment claim against Darcy. An alias of mine I was using on assignment just got slated for a severe audit and now I have to hack into the Treasury servers to correct the problem.
The last paragraph was an ill-conceived attempt at small talk. I just realize my problems are pretty trivial to what's going on with you. Trust me when I say I'm doing everything I can to keep the agency off your tail.
Anyway, if you have a moment - let me know how you're doing.

- Mace Darcy. Either the spray kind or the medieval kind.
- Just claim your alias made a ton of money. The president pulled funding from the IRS so they don't have the manpower to actually investigate rich people who cheat on their taxes.
- How am I doing? Too busy for small talk. I appreciate all your help getting situated, but I need to stay focused on my work and not waste time with banter.

Will you have to show them on the doll where Darcy mentioned he'd touch you? That sounds pretty traumatic. Why don't you tell him there's been a verified sighting of me in Siberia. While I can't promise you he'll be the victim of polar bear rape, it should keep him out of the office for a while.
Things are going well enough. You know... there's this little problem with my former coworkers wanting me dead... but it's nothing that guns and a drinking problem can't solve.

Mina,
Well, being shot at is always loads of fun but at least I have a well appointed safehouse wherein I can performed unlicensed surgery on myself. Even pried a bullet from your gut with a pair of tweezers? Good times.
I appreciate your help so far. I've got a laundry list of leads to follow up on - if you have any more info for me, I'm all ears.
