<p><em>&ldquo;My dear, if, as he said, Tycho was going to take a nap, perhaps you ought to do the same.&rdquo;</em></p>
<p>&ldquo;I know,&rdquo; ey replied, shoulders sagging. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s hard to get out of that mindset of having to just work.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;I know it&rsquo;s enjoyable,&rdquo; eir other partner said. &ldquo;But seriously, Codrin, even if you&rsquo;re not going to take a nap, take a thermos out onto the prairie and walk for a bit. Tycho is going to need quite a bit of help, given what you told us of him&ndash;&ldquo;</p>

<p>&ldquo;I&rsquo;m guessing you said yes to both the job offer and the fork?&rdquo;</p>
<p>He nodded. &ldquo;It all just sounded so normal. There didn&rsquo;t seem like anything else to do.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Can you tell me more about both?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Well, she said that she a knew good deal about the communications and that she&rsquo;d like me to come help her with the mechanics of that. She&rsquo;d help me out with resources and I&rsquo;d teach her what I learn about Artemis as I learned it.&rdquo;</p>

<p>&ldquo;Artemis? Is that what they&rsquo;re calling the remote&hellip;ship? Vehicle?&rdquo;</p>
<p>He nodded. &ldquo;Vehicle. She said they&rsquo;re calling it Artemis, that I should tag my fork #Artemis, and that those on the ship were either Artemisians or Sea People, which I didn&rsquo;t get.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Sea People might be a reference to something from the <em>Mythology,</em>&rdquo; Codrin leaned back in the seat, thinking. &ldquo;Or it could be a reference to a theory about a marauding group of seafarers during the Bronze Age collapse. One that had sacked much of the ancient near east and northern Africa, leading to the prolongation of the collapse.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Tycho laughed. &ldquo;Well, I&rsquo;ll do my best, but it&rsquo;s not like I have much experience working with Artemisians, either. I&rsquo;ll help with the technical aspects as best I can, though.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Excellent,&rdquo; Codrin said. &ldquo;Thank you for that. I&rsquo;ll be managing most of this part, so you won&rsquo;t have to worry too much about the minutiae, but I figured it&rsquo;d give you a better idea of what to expect when we work together.&rdquo;</p>
<p>He nodded.</p>
<p>&ldquo;On that note, lets come up with a basic idea of what&rsquo;s next for us. We mostly talked about immediate next steps earlier, but it might be a good idea to start thinking on a larger timescale.&rdquo;</p>

<p>&ldquo;I guess. I&rsquo;m assuming it&rsquo;ll be pretty loose, given that we can&rsquo;t guess the particulars?&rdquo; He waited for Codrin to nod, then continued. &ldquo;Then we have a month or so before they reach their closest approach as long as we both stay on our own heading.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Does that mean a month before they upload?&rdquo;</p>
<p>He shrugged. &ldquo;Not necessarily. They can upload whenever they want, so long as our Ansible is on and the DMZ is ready. I don&rsquo;t think it&rsquo;s on yet, though. There&rsquo;s probably an effective range beyond which the Ansible won&rsquo;t work well.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Conversely, would ey be able to argue one way or the other, to convince them to come with em or not?</p>
