 		[EMAIL] 12/24 Stevie is depressed
I think I've been behind on my email trail with Stevie. Sorry! Holiday buzy-ness makes it hard to update lately:

On 12/22 Stevie wrote:
Hi Caspian,

Yes, they caught the creepy guy (Davi's name for him). But Uncle Seth didn't find out why he tried to steal Raidar. He got very sick and had to be taken to the hospital part of the station. Mommy says he is in a coma. I think that means he is asleep and can't wake up.

Uncle Seth is sleeping on our couch now. Last night after all the officers left he asked Mommy if she wanted them to set up people outside the door. She said yes and asked if we could have one stay inside our house too. So one stayed while Uncle Seth went to his home and got his pillow and PJ's and a blanket, and his laptop and briefcase and brought them back to our house. He was up late last night looking for things in creepy man's (that's Davina's name for him) background. This morning he went to go talk to the man and while Seth was questioning him the man got sick! Seth has his lips all pressed together tightly again. Mommy had to go to work. She is a doctor.

Davina came over to cook dinner for Uncle Seth and me. I had a chicken drumstick and they had a Cornish hen each. I don't know why they liked it, the drumsticks are not very big. And we had wild rice and green beans and ice cream dots for dessert.

Davina and Uncle Seth kept smiling at each other. Uncle Seth made a lot of silly comments and Davi laughed at them. I think they liiiike each other!

Oh, got to go… Davina is asking me if I took my bath yet.

Stevie

Hi Stevie,

I like Davi's name for the creepy guy! It's kinda sad he's in a coma, though. I mean, he's probably a bad man for sneaking into your apartment, but still it's bad for someone to not wake up.

I'm glad Seth is there to protect you. I'm sure he is doing all he can to figure out why this guy snuck (Raidar, is that a word?) into your apartment and if it's related to your daddy's disappearance.

I've never had a Cornish hen but I hear they are bery good, even if the drumsticks are small, especially with wild rice. I don't like green beans by themselves much, but I love the green bean casserole with french fired onions that people often make at Thanksgiving!

Seth and Davi??? Liiiiiike each other? Smile That sounds fun! Make sure and give them enough time to themselves. That's important when people like each other. It lets them get to know each other better and find out if they should be boyfriend and girlfriend. It sounds like both Seth and Davi could use some company right now anyway.

I get to see my family for Christmas tomorrow! Do you celebrate Christmas? If you do, I hope you have a very Merry Christmas. Ask Raidar if he got Libby's last message, she's been waiting to hear from him! Tell Davi, your mommy, Seth, and Raidar Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from me and all your penpals.

You friend,
Caspian


Libby's last message to Raidar can be found here.

Her reply:

Hi Caspian,

I know my mommy is very worried about creepy guy. He isn't getting any better, and she is very worried about him.

Yeah I celebrate Chirstmas, but I don't feel very Christmasy right now. My Daddy is missing, and my Mommy is busy at work. Yesterday I had lunch in her office and she spent the whole time talking to Doctors on Earth about the creepy guy's coma. She didn't even ask me about what picture I was drawing for her. When Davi and I are with Uncle Seth, Davi speaks a lot more to Uncle Seth than to me. I just hope Raidar doesn't decide to go to earth to see Valentine. Then I would be all alone.

Maybe I should just go away and then nobody would ever have to be bothered by me again.

I keep thinking about the book where Diggory and Jill are behind the gym and calling for Aslan to take them to Narnia. That was the one where they met Prince Caspian when he was a prisoner.

Raidar said to give Libby this Status report: Laage qgn, fkcwfw Lbvtq. Vuklwfm smulml snmhwvt: kyesbnl cf unsmivq hf fyvavae jwjloghwd, humfggd gnujvxd.

Vigenre: Status

Thank you, friend Libby. Current status suspect: remains in custody of medical personnel, outlook guarded. Officials unable to continue questioning suspect at this time due to medical complications. Connection to sitiation re: Steven Mae, uncertain at this time. No corrobotating evidence for supposition available at this time. Human Stevie very unhappy current time. Please advise how I may proceed to make Stevie Human not unhappy. Stevie considering leaving protecting of human family, this is not advisable action. Cordelia Mae last accessed log file regarding information primary charge Stevie December 3, 2005. Steven Mae last accessed log file regarding information primary charge Stevie November 28, 2005. Primary charge Stevie using word combination associated depressed emotional state.


So she is depressed and considering running away. Come on people, encouraging emails, Christmas cards, etc. Let's cheer this girl up!

 		I haven't written to her yet but I will try to send something. I did email Seth and mentioned that Stevie is depressed. No answer from him yet.

 		I sent her an e-card!

I suspect that Davina is a bette rperson to email about Stevie's mood. Seth is a good guy and all.. but he's the investigator. Davina is closer to a "big sister" type role... better for talky-feelingsy things.

 		If I had a son or daughter and she emailed her penpal saying that she was considering running away, I'd want to know. So I emailed Cordelia, Davi, and Seth a note letting them know and suggesting to them that maybe Stevie needs more attention. Hopefully, they will spend more time with with her - epsecially today on Christmas - before Stevie does anything rash.

 		Sorry for double post, but I think a new email warrants it, As I mentioned, I emailed Cordelia, Davina, and Seth when Steive was talking about "going away".

Caspian wrote:
Hello,

As you probably already know, I am one of Stevie's penpals. We have been emailing back and forth and I just thought I should alert you to something she said. I had asked her whether she celebrates Christmas. She replied that she did but she didn't feel very Christmasy since not only was her Daddy missing, but her mommy, Davi, and Seth were all very busy. She then said:

"Maybe I should just go away and then nobody would ever have to be bothered by me again."

I can't even imagine the turmoil each of you is going through with Steven's disappearance and now this man sneaking into your apartment and then mysteriously falling into a coma. Please do not think I am judging you, but permit me to stick my nose in where it doesn't belong for a brief moment. It just seems that Stevie is depressed and could use a bit more attention. I tried to remind her that all of the work that each of you is doing is to ensure her safety and bring back Steven, but as you know children - even ones as brilliant as Stevie - don't always see in those terms.

With that said, I will back out of your business. If my niece said something like the above, I would want to know, so I felt compelled to let you know.

Have a Merry Christmas,
Caspian

Caspian,

I want to thank you for informing me of Stevie's state of mind. I know that this has to be extremely hard for her, but she puts on such a brave face in front of all of us that it's hard not to believe she's ok when she says she is. Christmas was very hard for Stevie and... well, hard for all of us. We tried our best to make Stevie's Christmas a special one, but there was only so much we could do, considering the circumstances.

Of course, Bronco didn't help much by pestering Stevie with a deluge of questions about Steven. I can't believe that someone as kind as Davina was the result of such an incredibly insensitive man.

Seth
