[quote][b]Dr. Litong (Oct 05, 2001 02:41 p.m.):[/b] Dr. Evan Litong was too tired to sleep. The little room he'd been pacing for the past three days as he travelled back to the Command Post and back to Donovan and Dominic was confining, but the rest of the ship was no better, and at least here he did not have to deal with anyone else. Here he could be alone with his nervous fear. He hadn't attempted to contact the twins. Any warning on his part might push them into doing something drastic before he arrived, and that was not what he wanted at this point. Donovan and Dominic had spent nearly a week thinking he was going to turn them in, and if they had drawn different conclusions after the first few days, a missive from him could still have pushed them over the edge. He wanted to tell them himself that he'd been wrong, or at least that he had been hasty. The permission for leave had been rescinded, at his request. Anything between his twins and the two Command School students would take its own course, without his interference. He granted his aid in refusing to tell the Keep about their conditioning violations. If he was right, their performance would improve, and they would be happy. If he was wrong, people would be hurt, and they would die. Of all the different experiments he'd run on Donovan and Dominic, this was one of the most simple...and by far the most important. He should have been more concerned about the outcome than he was about his incipient revelation. He should have been more worried about their long-term reaction to the broken conditioning instead of their immediate reaction to his news. Faith had come to Dr. Litong late in life, but it had come nonetheless. Time passed, Litong paced, and at last the docking notification sounded. The doors parted, and if he had thought it at all possible to escape unnecessary notice, Dr. Litong would have run the distance to the barracks. He settled for a quick pace, and after some hunting located the proper deck, the proper corridor. The proper door. Litong stood before it and pressed the chime, formal reserve on his features, and hoped.[/quote]
