It's an old wound. [though, one Akechi clearly picked up on, if the fact that he's apologizing is any indication] I haven't talked to Christina in -- ten years, maybe?
[the more horrifying thought is that that's the last time he saw his son, too, though not for lack of trying. unfortunately, his ex slapped him with a restraining order for trying, and while it really wouldn't have been hard to delete that from the system, like he eventually did his criminal record, the timing was all wrong. he'd literally just gotten out of prison for computer related crime and people still remembered that. if he'd gotten rid of the restraining order, more than a dozen people would have know it was him. he was too angry at the time, anyway (fine, fuck the bitch and the kid), but now? god, does his son even remember him?]
[maybe the wound's not so old, after all. maybe he's going to change the subject, rather than dwell on that, or the idea that no one will miss him, not even his rival. Aiden will notice him missing, surely, but he's probably eventually just settle on the idea that he fell into Lake Michigan, and never think of him again]
no subject

What about you, though? Any brothers or sisters?
