SUMMARY: Alex is doing his best to run things, feel free to bug him with issues, complaints, offers of help, attempted punches to the face, whatever!

He'd set up food lines, he'd begun establishing a peacekeeping network, he had people in place to handle the power plants, the biggest jobs were out of the way. He even had someone else picking up the slack. There were still things to do, there would always be things to do, but for right now, just for this one moment, he thought he might get a moment's rest.

Boy, was he ever in for a surprise.

[good thing Geddoe is so practiced at concealing his thoughts and feelings so well behind that stoic frown. He had a lot of them working at the moment, not the least of which was "just like every other young punk." Nope, keeping that to himself and betraying nothing in his expression]

It wasn't a plea for staying in touch. I was merely making an observation. And you haven't answered my question.

[ Clearly they would not get along very well if the circumstances hadn't forced them to. ]

I wouldn't say they're going completely without a hitch, given what all we're dealing with, but they're going as well as we could hope right now.

[trueltning_fury]

[clearly~...he nods. That's as satisfactory of an answer as he'll take right now]

Very well, then. I suppose I should actively coordinate with Jack to stay abreast of developments. I think I've learned enough here to satisfy my curiosity.

[hellisforchildren]

Yeah, you do that.

[ Sooner he's gone, the better, as far as Alex cares. ]

[well, here you go, Alex. He just gives a curt, authoritative nod and turns to go as abruptly as he showed up. He's like that. As long as you're not a Harmonian bishop, he doesn't have to play games of politeness]
