Dear Taisa,
How are you? I am doing well, busy, but well. Such is the life of a starship captain I suppose. (Light chuckling in the background from Yuriko.) My second day of command has already seen quite the odd assortment of events. While on our way to the Yugumo cluster we ran across a Fifth Expeditionary Fleet scout in distress, and had been attacked by a SMX carrier. We re-took the scoutship, and boarded the carrier, also taking it, and freeing over one hundred prisoners of Yamataian, Nekovalkyrja, Nepleslian, and Lorath origin.
I cannot say my arrival to Hotaru Star Fortress was not without its own share of bumps in the road. I attracted the attention of the admirality of the Fifth, and was introduced to Shosho Misato Tange, someone of great influence it seems. At first she came off a bit...cold, and aloof due to my fleet status, but in all honesty now it seems she likes me. Unfortunately I was also involved in a botched assassination attempt, and saved her life as well, now it seems I have won at least some measure of respect amongst the Fifth.
There was also a battle the first night I arrived at Hotaru, two SMX forces arrived, and my ship aided the Fifth in repelling the assault. We managed to destroy two carriers of the four SMX carriers, and damaging a third. All in all the battle went surprisingly well, and none of my crew were injured.
Sounds like a normal day back in the days when I was aboard the Sakura, no? Forgive me if you do not find that funny Taisa, I was trying to put some humor into an otherwise bad situation. All in all a fairly eventful day...
Oh! How could I almost have forgotten! Two very important things happened to me as well. Firstly, when I first arrived at Hotaru I met a man, a male NH-27 samurai with silver hair named Saito. We began talking, and eventually I ended up with him as my bodyguard, he is a sweet, caring, and protective man. I once caught him napping in one of the rec rooms with our smallest sprite, Shii cuddling up against him asleep, it was quite cute.
An image of Shii, a three foot tall sprite with long green hair, big golden, eyes, pale skin, and a innocent look on her small childish face was enclosed. Also a photo of Saito asleep on the rec room couch with Shii right beside him was as well.
The second important, if not most important event happened only late yesterday... I am pregnant once again, this time with twins. I ran across Midori on Hotaru, and we spoke, and I asked her to be my contributor to which she agreed, and seemed a little happy to do. It was good to see one of my dearest friends again. It is now around 5:15 a.m here at Hotaru, and I have been invited to have breakfast with Tange-Shosho on a beach on Jiyuu at sunrise.
I wish you were here Taisa, I miss you, and would prefer to say all of this in person instead of a voice message. (A small sigh could be heard after this had been said.) I hope you are well Taisa, and are safe. Please respond when you get the chance? It may do me some good to hear from you.
With love,
Yuriko.
