         As Cathy finished typing up the circus's schedule on its website, a familiar voice over the speakers caught her quite by surprise. "You've had mail for a while, but I've quite neglected to tell you!" it said cheerfully. She instantly regretted installing that RAM the IRS had sent with her tax return.

Heero, Duo, Trowa, Quatre, and Fei, it's me! Duet!,

         Gracefully, she arched an eyebrow and rested her chin on the back of her hand. "I guess I was wrong. Quiet people attract all type of friends…" she sighed, half asleep.

         Cathy copied and pasted the letter and hit send. Her MSP groaned audibly and made quite a show of sending the letter back to everyone on the address list. As she eyed the screen tiredly, she noticed one more address that hadn't responded. "Don't they know Sylvia went on sabbatical last month? People are so out of touch these days…"

*Bonus Mini-Theater 11*

         "THAT IS IT!" Duet cried and leapt to her feet, "WHY DOES NO ONE CARE THAT I'M DYING HERE!?"

         "Because you're obviously not…" Heero replied without bothering to turn his eyes from the TV screen.

         "…damn…" she cursed silently, realizing all too late that by making it all the way home she had proved she was quite capable on her own and would not be getting anything more in the way of sympathy than a few Band-Aids and beer to tell her story over. "You all suck…" she scowled, plopping down in the computer chair. Her elbow accidentally grazed the mouse and the screen lit up.

         "I have…mail?"
