I did it only as a lark, a la apocalypsebox turning up at Draco's party but not really being a member of t_m. I'm not sure I have the time for a third muse, but I had to do this.

Ah, Ms. Burton. Up to your old tricks again? Would you like to print the retraction now, or would you rather wait for our lawyers to contact you? The volume of proof that I am still on Mars and am most emphatically not currently on Babylon 5 would bury you.
Honestly, now. I thought you had learned a thing or two over the years...

Dear Sir,
our employee, Ms Burton, provided the attached documentary proof of one Michael Garibaldi currently residing on Babylon 5 as well. Should this man be an imposter, we will be glad to print a retraction, but in the interest of providing our readers with nothing but the truth, would you mind contacting said individual first? Or better yet, allow our reporters to be present on said occasion? It should be in your own interest to establish your identity as the true Michael Garibaldi, and to let the world know that the B5 crew tried to devalue your most courageous testimony by arranging for a doppelganger.
Yours sincerely,
Willy Dernam
P.S. A copy of this mail was sent to your employer, Mr. Edgars, for certainly his interests are at stake here as well.

To: Willy Dernam, Chief Editor/Galaxy Gab From: Michael Garibaldi, c/o Edgars Industries Attachment: signed testimony of Mr. Edgars confirming his presence at a meeting and at dinner the night of the party; a photo of Mr. Edgars shaking the hand of another company's official, Garibaldi and another man [Wade] plainly visible behind him
Dear Mr. Dernam,
As you can see from the attached, I was on Mars during the party, and am still there as a matter of fact. My employer will back this up if you contact him directly. DNA, fingerprints, and retinal scans all prove that I am Michael Garibaldi, although it is not necessary to prove my identity to you. While I would love to travel to Babylon 5 to find out who this imposter is, I have much more important duties here

Dear Mr. Garibaldi,
sounds like a newsworthy story to me. We shall be glad to investigate the mystery of the doppelganger for you further, and report on your presence on Mars and non-identity with the person whom Ms Burton encountered at the party in our next issue.
Once your schedule is less busy, may we hope for an interview? After all, the public deserves to learn more about your side of things.
Yours sincerely,
Willy Dernam

No sooner had the message faded that another call announced itself.
roughly translated for future readers, this means: Imposter will be investigated. Control 2.0 is to make no further attempts at own investigation but concentrate on current operation, as time is of the essence.

*composes self* As a mod for T_M, did you want to be added to the community or to the support B5 community at all?

This is absolutely brilliant! And Mikey is well and truly screwed now...
Although... Hmmmn... Maybe a libel suit from S4 Garibaldi would solve the problem. ;-)
