Lodestar: Yo, how goes it with Temper?
Eagle Eyes: Same old, same old.
Lodestar: Any change in her routine?
Eagle Eyes: Nope. Not since she became the deputy director, at any rate.
Eagle Eyes: You getting sick of paying me to watch this boring bitch?
Lodestar: Nah. I figure I’m building your kid’s college fund.
Eagle Eyes: My kid? How the fuck did you know Ama is pregnant?
Lodestar: :P You shouldn’t ask stupid questions.
Eagle Eyes: Touché. No one else knows. We’re keeping it close to our chests. Keys and Saint haven’t told anyone either.
Lodestar: Must be real awkward with so much family. They never talk about that shit in the poly books.
Eagle Eyes: It is what it is. Since when do you read books on polyamory?
Lodestar: Since my sisters-in-law introed me to the world of smut. It’s an eye-opener, lemme tell you.
Eagle Eyes: I know. Ama’s just as bad. Or do I mean good? :P
Lodestar: You mean good, hah.
Lodestar: I won’t say dick about the sprog, anyway, lol.
Eagle Eyes: Just FYI, I ain’t a charity case, Star. I’m perfectly capable of making deposits into my kid’s college fund. If they even want to go to goddamn university.
Lodestar: Whoa, calm down, bro.
Eagle Eyes: I’m calm, I’m calm. What’s up?
Lodestar: You heard of someone called Dost Mohamed Khan?
Eagle Eyes: DMK, sure. Blew his brains out on a top-secret mission.
Lodestar: That’s impossible.
Eagle Eyes: Nah. Watched his skull shatter through my scope… No surviving that.
Lodestar: I killed a Dost Mohamed Khan in London. A few years back. We can’t both have killed the same fucking man!
Eagle Eyes: Sure we can.
Lodestar: What?! O.O
Eagle Eyes: DMK was a patrilineal name.
