[ this message comes while wash is at work, a few hours after he knows she had plans with drake, because both of them are always keen to keep tabs on one another. carolina hasn't said anything about those plans involving confronting maine, but maybe if wash learns from a distance, he'll be less mad at her for keeping him in the dark. or more. it's really a toss-up, she figures. ]
We should have our third back on training rotation in the next few days. What time are you getting home tonight?
Maine isn't something you get to protect me from without my input. He's my friend, too. Maybe I even would've decided you were right and I shouldn't be there -- that might be ganging up on him, anyway.
What if you just didn't come home, and I had no idea what happened?
[ carolina doesn't respond for a long few minutes, busy with maine and frustrated with this conversation. maybe she did this all wrong after all. maybe she should have just let maine keep hiding. ]
I'm sorry. I won't keep something like this from you again.

He's going to come by the apartment for a little bit. I can probably talk him into sticking around, if you want to see him later.

[ which certainly reads like the clear end of an exchange with carolina, but another message follows a few minutes later. ]
Don't be mad. Drake and Ephemera helped me sort of set a trap and it went exactly as well as you'd expect. It got a little messy.

Wash reads the message over again to make sure he got it right the first time but of course he did. ]
You WHAT.

You saw how Maine was in my memory. If he saw you as a threat, you would have seen it for yourself and you didn't need to go through that here.

[ because arguing the rest is... difficult. but she expected this, so she's hearing him out. ]

I'd appreciate that. I just feel like I should have gotten to have that argument.
