[ The E-mail is forwarded, the return address is blank. The E-mail is from Johann P. Grey in mid-March to WDS Lab Supply Co. It details at a very high level, an order for very expensive scientific equipment used in genetic analysis and manipulation. The delivery request is to a freight company that – as is implied in the E-Mail – carries goods outside of the wall of New Amsterdam. The price of the equipment is detailed at the bottom of the invoice, and it's enough to cover the rent of a small apartment for the better part of a year. The E-mail is full of eccentricities and ends with Johann saying that it's paid for from a private account. ]
[The message tears him from a dream-tossed sleep full of sterile rooms and medical instruments, of the anguished moans of stricken creatures who could barely be classified as men, and he has to bite the inside of his lips to keep from crying out. Quietly, Wade rises to a sitting position on the edge of the meager little cot, struggling to get his breathing under control and his heart rate settled.
It takes a few seconds before he's able to regain control of himself enough to send a reply.]
[He shows up at Red Wings with a bit more than usual, tape measure and a few swatches, before he's looking around for one of the other people he's meant to dress for Nate's little outing. Wade gets pointed out to him and he comes over, nodding at the man and smiling pleasantly.
Garak is well enough dressed now that he's pulled off the hoodie he wears on the streets to hide some of his features, in a red-and-black tunic and black pants. He is very clearly not human.]
I'm Garak, the tailor. I believe you were lacking in anything proper to wear on Nate's little adventure as well?
[Wade has seen a lot of very strange individuals from very different walks of life. It kind of comes with the territory as a comic book character. So when someone who's very obviously a different species comes up to him seemingly with purpose, his reaction isn't anything more than a raised eyebrow. The dude looks familiar though, no doubt about that. Not so much the man himself as his appearance. He looks like one of those aliens from those shows Weasel is always roping him into watching.
He crosses his arms over his chest.]
I mean, I'm generally able to pick out my own clothes, but if you're offering...?
[Considering the Rutger-Hauer-in-Blade-Runner cosplay you're sporting right now, pretty sure your fashion sense is in desperate need of an upgrade, Wade.]
[ This is another difficult one. His involvement in Wade's life was extensive and insidious, and he's not entirely certain how much Wade knows. By the end, he hadn't been surveilling his network in the way he had for the rest of that long life.
So he takes the template he's created, formal and without the necessity for response, and offers him the same courtesy he has a small handful of others. ]
I'll be returning to Red Wings in the next week or so. I plan to work around existing shifts as best I can, but it's likely we'll overlap.
There are no expectations. If you need to minimize the risk of an encounter, let Clarke know you're taking leave and I'll ensure you're paid.
Way to make this sound like we just broke up with each other, Doc. Should I return your DVDs too?
[It's difficult to tell just what Wade thinks of all this, but if Stephen has been paying attention to Wade's texting patterns over the past few months, he may be able to pick up on his mental state right now.]

@nathan.drake, not long after sam's text
