∮ 002. backdated early morning of 6/16.
[ reed sits, as usual, in an empty laboratory. ]
I'm not the first one to remind you all about the incoming holiday. I'd ask you all a question of a vapid nature like "What does it mean to be a father?" but I would be lying if I said it would be of use to anyone. I know what constitutes a good father, and, well. I know what doesn't.
[ while his shoulders slump low toward his desk, his torso nearly unravels into loops around his work area. ]
The simple fact is: I am going to be a father one day. I’ve been aware of enough of my multiple selves to comprehend this. Children and love are my constant, as they are Susan’s. [ bitterly: ] At least one of us has to accept this reality.
[ plucking a test tube off a bunsen burner with tongs, he passive-aggressively mocks a toast toward the communicator. ]

[ clink. ]
May you arrive to a better world with nicer, less abusive people.
