We are both direct men. So, let me be direct.
You were given TCIV reclamation assignment because you get results.
I need results I can sell.
Do you understand?
Definitive. Headline-worthy. Budget-securing. Results.
Not because the UESC needs an excuse to spend on Tau Ceti's recovery.
There is no intention to let up on the recovery efforts.
But operations are funded based on their success rate.
And an operation can be replaced. Control can shift even as the theater stays the same. Priorities can be hijacked by agendas.
Your task is not easy. Neither is mine.
We are a team. My team.
I would like to keep it that way.
But I need results.
The initial returns are promising, but they are not enough because everything you're touching is classified to the point of being nonexistent in the public eye.
And public is eager. Hungry.
Help me feed them.
Help me bury the budget hawks in headlines so I can keep us funded.
Or you and I will be replaced. Just like we replaced those who came before us.
There's always a bigger and better pitch.
There's always someone with something to prove and an eye open for any cracks they can widen into an opportunity.
You know how easy it is to become obsolete. You know how brutal it can be.
Give me something, and I will get you the reinforcements you need to truly take control.
Give me messaging I can sell.
Give me updates that can lead the feeds.
Give me news from another world that moves the polls.
I know you have the personnel to do it.
Find the time.
Find the messaging.
It doesn't need to be perfect. We can handle polish on our end.
You give me something I can sell.
I'll sell it.
It really is that easy.
Don't get distracted by the Runners.
Do your job. Give me what I need.
And we'll both avoid wasting time on exchanges like these.
I'll expect a delivery in your next packet.
