<p>Yared wiped his palms against his thighs, shaking his head. &ldquo;He guessed, councilor. He asked, and even knew it was you. I&rsquo;m sorry, sir, I don&rsquo;t think there&rsquo;s anything I could have done to stop him from doing that.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Oh, did he now?&rdquo; Demma&rsquo;s laugh was earnest. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m not particularly surprised at that, either, and I suppose it does let you off the hook somewhat, doesn&rsquo;t it?&rdquo;</p>
<p>All he could think to do was nod.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Well, if Jonas knows what we&rsquo;re up to, that does change things somewhat. I know that our latest suggestion was that you mention independence for the first time. I&rsquo;d like to modify that somewhat, if you haven&rsquo;t already written your post.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Well, if Jonas Anderson has figured out what we&rsquo;re up to, that does change things somewhat. I know that our latest suggestion was that you mention independence for the first time. I&rsquo;d like to modify that somewhat, if you haven&rsquo;t already written your post.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Not yet. I was going to do it this morning before our usual meeting.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Yes, well, do hold off for a little longer. I would like you to change it so that you quote Jonas in mentioning independence. Do keep his name out of your posts, of course. It&rsquo;s probably best that he remain your &lsquo;friend&rsquo; and not &lsquo;one of the slickest politicians in the Western Fed&rsquo; when people read what you have to say.&rdquo; Demma smiled kindly, adding, &ldquo;And if I may ask you a favor, please don&rsquo;t consult him about this post before you send it. You&rsquo;re welcome to keep talking with him and whoever his companion is. Perhaps they&rsquo;re even another copy of him. I just want to hear what his reaction is when you put the word &lsquo;independence&rsquo; in his mouth.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Of course, sir.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Nodding, the councilor said, &ldquo;Thank you, Yared. I&rsquo;m glad to see that we are more on the same page, now. Stay wary of Jonas, maintain your friendship, and keep me up to date about the things that he says that don&rsquo;t make it into your posts. As long as our goals align, we should be able to work together through you.&rdquo;</p>

<p>&ldquo;You won&rsquo;t talk to him?&rdquo; Yared asked.</p>
<p>&ldquo;That&rsquo;s far to risky for my current position. It&rsquo;s plausibly deniable that you were already talking to him before we reached our agreement, should that agreement be made public. If I were to talk to him, though&hellip;&rdquo; He trailed off with a shrug and a half-smile.</p>
<p>&ldquo;I understand.&rdquo;</p>

<p>He just knew that he needed something spicy to eat and at least two glasses of wine.</p>
