Though this evening's correspondence all seems to hinge on a particular theme, I'm afraid I'm going to have to break the pattern. Don't bother asking if anything more than anniversary fever has gotten into our fellow citizens, though, because I don't have that information at this time.

This is just a note to say the week's trial period is over. So if you can drop your Electronic Children off in the padded container provided next to the regular mailbox, that'd be a big help to us, and everything will move along much smoother. If you've broken your Child you'll have to fill out a form available at the government offices.

Thanks, guys. I hope all this isn't too much trouble, and that you all enjoyed the festivities hosted in honor of us being here. I think we've all made new friends in this place, and the Babylon Government thinks a year is definitely worth celebrating.

I want to keep mine.

After we've collected the data everyone is free to recollect theirs.

[heatstruck.livejournal.com]

Oh good. Mine are definitely the strongest.

[scienceexplains.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure that was supposed to be the goal, Axel.

[heatstruck.livejournal.com]

It's my goal.

[scienceexplains.livejournal.com]

Whatever keeps you off the streets, I guess.

If you don't mind my asking...what will the data be used for?

[ex_whoosh450]

I'm fairly sure they just wanted a record of who looked after their little machine and who didn't; I know it has something to do with the Repopulation Division but I'm not really involved enough in that to say what.

That sounds a little ominous...

[ex_whoosh450]

If it helps, they're not spying on anyone and I doubt they could get any real information out of who remembered to feed the things.

I don't mean to be rude, Petrelli-san, but if it wasn't useful to them somehow, I don't think they'd bother, and after last night, I think it's a little hard not to worry with what they might do with anything.

It's nice to see that our representative hasn't been affected by all this madness.

[ex_whoosh450]

I make a point of keeping control of myself, but thankyou, Mr. Lamperouge.

What kind of mother would I be if I left my child in the hands of the government without an extended court case?

[ex_whoosh450]

I'm afraid the documentation demonstrates that your "child" is official property of the Babylon government until signed over to you. If you wish to pay the expenses of a court case and waste your time and money, feel free.

Why do I feel like plainclothes policemen will turn up at my door in the middle of the night once they've checked out my "child"?

I'm not good with children.
