<strong>Location</strong>: ADAMS Headquarters (First Haven, Watcher’s Island). Grigori Docking Bay - the Observation Bridge<br/><strong>Date</strong>: 5 January 2099. Monday<br/><strong>Time</strong>: Afternoon<br/><strong>Who</strong>: Alexander "Laustin" André<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Laustin heard both Yeonhye's comment to herself and her question. He didn't say anything for a few moments, allowing the two brothers to run through the first few steps of the maneuver. She was right, Allen had been producing an abnormally high synchronization rating lately. It was not unprecedented, but generally pilots who achieved exceptionally high synch would then experience a drop in their fidelty shortly after. Allen, on the other hand, had been steadily climbing over the last few months with no drop off in sight. As far as his results indicated, there was nothing inherently "wrong" with this, as Yeonhye put it.<br/><br/>"What in particular strikes you as wrong?" he asked, without facing her. He was not rebuking her, so much as eliciting her opinion. He acknowledged that a major gap in his professional set was his difficulty to fully understand interpersonal dynamics. It was entirely possible that somebody with greater social instincts would catch something "wrong" in Allen's demeanor that Laustin could not.
