day 254 - video; 001
[ When Riker appears at last he's circled back round to Sector 2, framed against the hedge maze. There's no distractions, and his introduction is absent of distractions too. At least at first. ]

Good evening. I hope it's not too late in the day to introduce myself, but I didn't wish for anyone to be surprised to spot me around the place. My name is William Riker, and I just arrived with the latest group of people. It's nice to meet all of you, if unfortunate considering the circumstances. I appreciate the kindness that has been shown to me since my arrival.

I understand some-- [ And suddenly Riker stops, looking up. It's started to rain, and he wipes a single raindrop off his nose. ] I'd better wrap this up. I'd like to speak to some friends of mine, whom I'm reliably informed have been here for a while. Maybe after I get in out of the rain, if that's perfectly alright.

Deanna, I hope you're in somewhere dry.

[ He pauses to consider this; it's a difficult question. He and Annika are both new to this type of relationship, and he finds that it is difficult to objectively measure the success of such an undertaking. They were also just separated - for twelve days on his part, but for far more on hers. There is, of course, an added aspect of uncertainty as a result. ]

No, sir; I do not mind. However, given her recent absence, I cannot be entirely certain as to how our relationship will be affected going forward. Prior to her departure, I believed that it was 'going' well, though I have had difficulty quantifying a means by which to measure the success of such an undertaking. Given the issues she is facing surrounding her return, I believe it would be best to allow her to readjust to her surroundings prior to any discussion on the status of our relationship.

[ He pauses, as there is an emotional component now, responses he must process and consider. It seems relevant. ]

However... I find that I am both pleased to see her again, as I had not expected her to be returned, as well as concerned for her wellbeing.
