I'm back.

I've sure you've all missed me terribly. I walked into the office this morning and Juliette pretended that she didn't know me. I love my uppity secretary. I may poison her coffee tomorrow.

Tel Aviv was rather more fun than it should have been, given that it was a work trip. The babies continue to grow at an alarming rate. We made an executive decision to take Dom's cane away, since all she's using it for now is to poke people.

Then I went to Muir to chase Ray all over the castle for the weekend. She was quite indignant when she didn't get to come home with me - that was the original plan for this week, and I think she actually knew that. But David had talked me into going to Khartoum with him to talk about this new project he has in mind with a couple of interested local parties.

Khartoum was fun. We got shot at - twice! And there may have been a barfight. It was like the old days. Nostalgia for the win.

Did you actually just say "for the win"? Isn't there an age limit on that expression?

Age-inappropriate slang is a tactic. Drew your attention, didn't it?

One, you are not allowed to poison the secretary. We need her. And some of us like her, anyway.

Two, am I going to get a call from Dom bitching about you stealing all her fun?

Three, what did I say about getting shot at without me?

Dom pouted, but it's not like she needs a cane to make a nuisance of herself.

And let me just point out that I stop bullets and David outruns them. You do neither.

Didn't stop you taking me to Prague. Or Wakanda. Or Kazakhstan.

And were we expecting to get shot at in any of those places? No.

...so you were expecting it this time?

As a matter of fact, yes. That's what happens when you go in planning to talk to the trigger-happy.

You and me are going to have a talk, old man.

Right now.

Well, you know where to find me, boy.
