TM: If you could live anywhere, where would you and why?
This is an interesting question to ask a telepath. We never really get to choose where we want to live, or, for that matter, what we want to do; either the Corps tells us where to go, and what to do there, or the mundanes force us to hide in all kinds of places and do nasty things just to survive, if we're stupid enough to try to run away from our

I - is it really you? I have been hoping to communicate with you through this strange place for so long...
...and of course your first message brings up all the old arguments. Teeptown isn't a home, it's a ghetto they created for us, and I can't understand why you accept it.
But never mind that now - I can't believe I'm talking to you again. Where are you? How are you? Please tell me you did something about the ulcer you had, instead of playing the stoic. Tell me you didn't stop going to concerts, and tell me it's not just Stravinsky all the time - you should give the second half of the 21st century a chance, even if you think all 22nd century composers beyond the pale ( ... )

This is a surprise, to say the least. Are you... all right?
*too shocked to get into an argument, which is rare for Bester*
OOC: Umm, should I know about this ulcer thing, or did you make that up? I guess I'll have to re-read the Psi Corps trilogy one of these days... ;)
OOC 2: How exactly is Carolyn talking to Bester right now? Telepathically? Through a comm system? Does Bester have to be on B5 for that?

*tries to compose herself and decides not to mention the ongoing fear that she's either stuck for eternity in the comm system, or doomed to an insane life as soon as they thaw her up again*
You know, I was so worried about you, because... is this system safe? Or should I use an encryption?
((ooc: I made it up. As a couple thing, you know. And she's writing to him via a comm system - can't communicate telepathically unless he's actually on the station.))

The channel is protected from my side. Don't worry about it, we should be safe, for now.

I missed you, too.
*takes a calming breath*
I shouldn't have let them keep you on that dreaded station. Not among mundanes. But I guess it was better that way, if you can now at least communicate again...
How are you doing in that... computer? Do the people on Babylon 5 know about you?
(OOC: I like that idea *L* I guess we'll have to keep writing for now, because due to Mr. Garibaldi's recent "problems", I'm afraid Bester shouldn't visit B5 too soon to give him some time to recover ;)
A related question: I read something in a discussion between Carolyn and Garibaldi about a captive Psi Cop on the station? Is that something Bester might be able to work with? Can you tell me where I can read more about that, I tried to find the original post(s), but wasn't successfull)
