Dark Ace leaned over the desk, writing on a piece of paper…seemingly ignoring Piper's presence.
It was quiet now. Aerrow had left, Dark Ace assumed. Likely, Finn had gone with him.

I'm back! Yay! I have a request to make…
Are there any people who are seriously considering trying to get published? Like, real authorship and so on? While I was in Virginia I had an epiphany…but it will take several people to work. If you wanna know more, PM or email me.
Also, more Conversations down the pipe. There is a light at the end of the tunnel, I swear!
