Summary

Sizzles, struggling with his emotions after failing to (in his mind) punish the Dovetree Family severely enough for their attack on Charles Diallo that killed his wife and daughter, flies out to see him in Chiba. Diallo has been flown to Imperial Japan to recuperate from his near-fatal injuries and to receive top-flight cybernetic replacements for his lost limbs at a Chiba delta black clinic.

Charles Diallo is recovering after surgery, and the Federated Boeing security agents assigned to Diallo do not want to let Sizzles pass. Social engineering and quick thinking is necessary to slide into the protected room to speak with Diallo.

Once inside Sizzles has an emotional discussion with the grieving father and husband about what transpired, and Sizzle's failing to receive (and enact for Diallo) a more satisfying revenge on the Dovetrees. The thought of Diallo's little daughter, who Sizzles met and brought a birthday present, haunts his mind. The two men, angry at the other's emotional languishing, strengthen each other's resolve to pull themselves back together and carry on.

Player After Action Reports (AARs)

Sizzles "Decker's log: why get sad when you can get mad.

Charles is doing better than I expected. Nothing like somebody _else_ feeling sorry for you to activate the old 'no u' reflex. I can't decide if he was glad to see a friendly face or if he was irritated that I intruded on his solitude. Either way, he's definitely not gonna fizzle out of will to live just yet. We're going to go drinking once the surgeons give him permission. I wonder if there's a way to cheat my way into drinking an orc under the table. I'd say its for him, but I think I need this as much as he does.

Chiba is _buck wild_. I gotta learn some Japanese - I can't afford to miss out on these vending machines."
