<p>Despite the exhaustion that had come down on him like a hammer, Tycho found it difficult to get to sleep. It weighed him down like stones on his chest, even as he lay in bed in the room that True Name led him too. It was a comfortable bed in a nice enough room, and still he lay there in the dark, staring up at the ceiling with eyes that burned.</p>
<p>He did not know how long it took him to actually fall asleep, but when next he woke, ten hours had passed, and dreams of Artemisians clung to him still. They were always just out of sight, and their conversations were just slightly below the level that he could hear them, and yet, he knew it to be them. Knew they were there, just around the corner. Knew that, above all else, he wanted to meet them.</p>
<p>When laying in bed any longer brooked him no progress on disentangling himself from the dream, he climbed out, showered in the en suite, and, when he was dressed, opened the door to find True Name waiting across the hall, two coffees in hand.</p>

<p>&ldquo;Do you feel more well-rested, Tycho?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;I guess, yeah,&rdquo; he said, accepting the offered coffee. &ldquo;I hope I didn&rsquo;t sleep through too much.&rdquo;</p>
<p>True Name began walking, letting him fall in step behind her. She laughed. &ldquo;Of course not, my dear. Nothing much that you need to worry about has happened in the last few hours. We have been working on information control and hunting down those willing to help with the effort for setting up the Ansible system to upload to Artemis. That is what you will be working on today, you and a passel of nerds. I think that is the collective term, at least.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Tycho nodded. &ldquo;Paolo was one of my professors, yes.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Well, what do you know,&rdquo; Answers Will Not Help said, laughing. &ldquo;Right, then. If the three of you will follow me?&rdquo;</p>
<p>They made their way to a conference room where they sat around a long table, both True Name and Tycho still nursing their coffees. Answers Will Not Help pulled a wheeled whiteboard over and uncapped a marker, beginning to diagram on the board.</p>
<p>&ldquo;I will be managing the effort,&rdquo; she said, writing &lsquo;AWNH&rsquo; and circling it at the top, two lines were drawn diagonally down from that. &ldquo;As mentioned, Ms. Soun will be working on the Ansible software modifications. Dr. Verda will be working on the math side required to have the Ansible track the ship as it moves. It was built to be mobile in case we did need to send or receive anyone from Lagrange in an emergency, but I am told that it was meant to require manual intervention.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Tycho frowned. &ldquo;Two people working on all of that?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Two clades, yes.&rdquo; She continued to diagram on the board. &ldquo;As discussed, Ms. Soun will begin with a clade of ten to work on the software, and Dr. Verda will begin with a clade of two. Both can expand as needed. We need to ramp this up and complete the changes required within two weeks, so it is important that we be able to move quite quickly.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;And what about me?&rdquo;</p>

<p>&ldquo;Nope, that is it. Your #Tasker instance will be working on separate items.&rdquo; She waved a hand again and the cone of silence dropped as the cube wall once more raised up between them. Muffled on the other side, he heard, &ldquo;See you in an hour.&rdquo;</p>
