[color=b4b4]Hello Chrysalis[/color]
[color=b4b4]You know, I figured you would have changed your Pseudonym long after Twisted Metal, though I will admit, it took me a whole 20 minutes to track you down even with what I knew about you, rather impressed I must say.
Granted, I had the means to carry out such Multi-International database search and the know how to keep it off the books, but still, it's clear why no one has seemed to have cashed in that bounty.
Don't worry, the NSA isn't tracking this, nor the Rising Dawn, G-corp or UNIT, I've ensured that. The perks of new position of power (If the header didn't spoil that already) grant me extra security on the Tax Player dollar FROM the Tax Player dollar.
It's funny how much more you can get away with a label that says "M.I.T. President" on it on your shirt.
But enough about that. How have you been? I know the saying "No News is Good News", but seeing how long it's been since our last meeting, and the context of your departure, it was something that didn't exactly help me sleep at night.
As for myself, things have been touch and go ever since the contest, I actually made it to the finals, you know? Spoke to Calypso and all, but given how "Wonderful" my wish turned out, I say it was rather good for you not to have made it to the finals.
I shudder to think what would have happened if he managed to corrupt your wish.
To make a long story short, I ended up in a sewer complex for about a week and that Bandicoot won
again.
"Thank you for playing Twisted Metal." indeed...
Still, there was one good thing that came from it though, though a series of events stemming from that night, I ended finally found a group of my own peers.
I can't list their names, but they were members from an old criminal outfit dubbed "The Bernstein Cartel" and they took me in.
Life has been a series of ups and downs since then, one minute we're living in a small apartment with a Nicolas Cage look-a-like, the next we were one of the most powerful arms dealers in the world and then back to living in the apartment.
At this moment in time, one of the more senior members of the group is going for a high ranking government position managed to pull a few favors, it's surprising how easy politics is when you have the powers of mind reading and hypnosis.
And that leads us to the present, with me behind a desk at one of the most impressive Non-Oxford Education centers in the world with thousands of students all at my disposal.
It also leads me to my next point, remember that promise I made back during the contest? While progress has been slow, my new position has left me with a notable increase in freedom to pursue my own personal research (having countless Interns and Fraternity Pledges for lab assistants also help) and I'm glad to say I made a breakthrough in developing a substance that would serve as a replacement for the whole "Feed off Love" thing.
It's still a work in progress (Focus groups describe it's taste as "Ash and Lard"), but I figure the notion that progress was being made alone would be news worthy.
And that's basically it, I hope this message reaches you and I understand if you aren't in a position to answer back.
If you are ever in the area, please let me know, if there is anything I can do for you, just say the word.
Until next time, stay safe out there.
