[It's a comfort to know that his wife and children won't actually be missing him, that whenever he returns it'll be as though he never left at all--but only to a point. He still misses them, after all, and he feels their lack more acutely with each passing day.

His wife often left him for weeks at a time on military campaigns, but he's rarely been separated from his children for more than a few days. He'd already been apart from them for too long when he woke up here, due to the problems in Orgrimmar, but the full weight of their absence hadn't hit him until today. Something about the season, or the week, or perhaps it was nothing specific at all.

He sighs into the feed.]

So, anyone else got kids at home? I'm suddenly sick for mine.

[hymnals]

Oh? Do you also--run with a gang of pickpockets?

[justamobster]

Not exactly. Let's just say I'm hopin' he stops at stealin' wallets, instead of followin' big brother's foot steps.

[hymnals]

[Well, that sounds sinister.]

I hope that for him, too.

[justamobster]

Been tryin' to convince him to go home, but I ain't sure that's any better.

[ It's not something he wants to think too hard about, considering he can't fix anything from space. ] ... How many kids you got?

[hymnals]

Three. Two barely old enough to crawl. My ten year old, though, she sometimes nicks things from people's pockets.

[He cringes.]

It's not something I encourage, but she can blink away, so it's hard to stop her.

[justamobster]

[ He chuckles softly. ] She'll learn. Usually takes kids stealin' from the wrong person 'fore they get that it ain't just an easy way of gettin' what they want.
