... printing it out and putting it on the cork board in the Special Assignment 11 break room...

Actually, it's likely that at this point there will be cause for some ha-ha-only-serious mourning in the SA11 break room, much as there was among the Valkyrie when the Corwin Bowl closed. I mean, the man is forsaking the path of kings as far as certain members of the GFC are concerned. I can already see, for instance, Bea Watanabe being incredulous. "Who does that? I mean, him, obviously, but what the hell?"

Well, look at it this way. Any fool suicidal enough can probably, with enough looking, find a couple of vampire floozies to have a one-off three-way with. Hell, there are probably neighborhoods in a few of the galaxy's choicer megalopoleis where someone with a vizorium MasterCard and very little sense of self-preservation can arrange such a thing in an hour or two, and if one survives, it'll only be to feel dirty. The cozy, homey, nothing-happens-except-a-lot-of-warm-fuzzy-feelings kind that leads to contented breakfast-time banter? That's a lasting accomplishment of the noblest kind. An investment in a future of which one can be proud. :)
