Hey big brother,
Didn't get a chance to catch you before I had to leave, but yeah, you might have heard by now, there's a bunch of us in Vegas. Can't say why exactly, except that it's work rather than play. And do I mean work - it's good to be useful, but this is getting ridiculous.
Any way, just a short email to let you know the aliens didn't get me overnight, and to ask if you could keep an eye on Manuel for me. I was able to talk to him and explain what was going on (sort of) before I left, but I really don't like leaving him. But it's got to be done. :(
Take care of Paige and Joyita, and yourself, and I'll bring you back something - should be back in a week or so.

That would be me leaving just as you're back in the room. *rolls eyes* I spoke to Doug this morning and he mentioned you were up and about again, which is great news, and that you're taking care of things for me, which I really appreciate. So does Frank, I imagine. But yeah, Vegas at short notice, and can't talk about why we're here, only that it's a bit like Istanbul. With a less nice place to stay. :P Le Beau has an evil sense of humour and sent me via bloody Anchorage first - does it ever not snow up there? Brr.
Looks like Doug, Forge and I are going to be pretty busy with the prep work, but I'll make sure Doug doesn't turn into Scary Computer Bloke too much and at least eats occasionally. You look after yourself, all right? I'm supposed to be the insane roomie, remember? ;)

I figure Nate's sending you reams of love-poetry or something every day, but I wanted to drop you a quick line and say we're both fine (although he's fretting about you, the big dope - he forgets you can look after yourself sometimes, I think. It's sort of cute, really), and that we're pretty much keeping an eye on each other. Nate thinks it's just him keeping an eye on me, but it goes both ways. *grins* I'm sleeping better, and I managed to heal myself well enough to be up and about pretty well, so no hassles there.
I know I don't need to say it, but I will any way - keep an eye on Manuel for me? He's finding the whole thing a bit overwhelming sometimes, and he'd probably appreciate breaks for normal stuff. And you know how he is about remembering to eat when he has his memory, let alone now, so someone to have dinner with might be a good idea. Possibly for both of you. *innocent look*

...I really hate this plan? Apart from the shitloads of magic I'm going to have to use, I really don't like what I'm going to have to do. *sighs* And the worst of it is that it makes sense. I hate it when Le Beau's right.

Hey, Doc,
Don't know if Pete told you what's going on, but I'm in Vegas doing something that I can't talk about but is really important for the school. I've attached an outline of what magic they're expecting me to do, and it's a big list. Got any pointers? Or, you know, pep talks? I'm getting Craig to help with some of it, but there's still a lot I have to do myself.

Hey Craig,
Remember that stuff we were mucking around with when I was there? The 'don't see me' charms? Looks like I have a use for them. Drop in for a chat when you get this? You know what my laptop looks like.
