From: Lieutenant Tolar Demor, Cardassia To: Lieutenant Jonathan Cameron, U.S.S. Sentinel NCC-99014 Cc: N/A
Subject: Baby On Board
Dear Mr. Cameron,
It has come to my attention that you and Ms. Alice Walker are expecting some sort of cyborg child. I would like to extend my sincere congratulations on becoming a father and making an absolute mockery of reproductive science. Truly, this is an historic event that will be recorded in many a medical text.
I’m not sure whether you’ve heard of the incident that happened on the Protector, but suffice to say, Commander Asada and I are no longer on speaking terms. While I continue to work with mental health professionals here on Cardassia to move through this difficult period, I would like to help prepare you for your own challenges that lie ahead. I have attached the definitive Cardassian text on child discipline for your reading.
Very Truly Yours, Tolar Rakim Demor

Subject: A Taste of the Alpha Quadrant
Dear Ms. Daniels,
It’s been some time since you and I have shared correspondence. It appears you’ve had quite the busy year since my departure from the Sentinel, including a well-deserved promotion, for which I’d like to extend my sincere congratulations.
I’ve been on extended leave on the homeworld, and my much-needed time in therapy has inspired me to reach out to people who have been a positive influence. While we didn’t have much time to socialize, I appreciated your decidedly unusual enthusiasm for Cardassian cuisine and culture. With your distinct palate in mind, I’ve created a replicator pattern for a traditional dessert with an unmistakably human spin and attached it to this message. I hope you’ll find it enjoyable.
Very Truly Yours, Tolar Rakim Demor

From: Lieutenant Tolar Demor, Cardassia To: Lieutenant Amalia Hamilton, U.S.S. Protector NCC-95312 Cc: N/A
Subject: Invitation
Dear Ms. Hamilton,
I will be competing in a mixed martial arts tournament here on the homeworld and I would like to extend an invitation for you to come spectate. While you were a formidable sparring opponent in your own right, I believe that this competition has much to offer in the way of exposing you to new disciplines and self-defense techniques. The event is scheduled to take place on Stardate 98456.39.
Additionally, I would like to express my sincere relief that your career hasn’t suffered because of my mistake. It still weighs heavily on me, but with the help of counseling, I’m working through it. I hope that your duties on the Protector haven’t been too boring in my absence. Please give my regards to Lieutenant V'Tira, and my sincere apologies.
Very Truly Yours, Tolar Rakim Demor

Subject: Flight Simulation
Dear Mr. Kodor,
I regret that we never got the chance to make another attempt at that combat simulation you and I tried last year. While I’ve been home, I’ve taken to the occasional bout in my family’s holosuite and I’ve found a program you may enjoy. It’s a recreation of the Battle for Deep Space Nine during the Dominion War, set aboard a Peregrine-class fighter. Maybe you’ll be more successful without a co-pilot holding you back?
Very Truly Yours, Tolar Rakim Demor

Subject: Sponsorship
Dear Ms. Decia,
Congratulations on your promotion! Frankly, I'm surprised it hadn't occurred sooner. While I'm sorry to tear you away from your work, I do have an offer you may be interested in.
I will be competing in an invitational round robin mixed martial arts tournament in the Capital City on Stardate 98456.39. Each competitor is allowed to sponsor one individual for entry, and you were the first person I thought of. The practice of Cardassian martial arts disciplines is extraordinarily rare off our homeworld, so I believe this presents a unique learning experience. Please let me know whether or not you are able to attend.
Very Truly Yours, Tolar Rakim Demor

Jon notices a message from an unusual sender as he opens up his console. 'I wonder what Tolar wants? We haven't spoken since passing by on the starbase.'
Jon reads it and frowns, wondering what happened that would cause such a reversal of fortunes for Tolar and Tibs. He chuckles to himself at the mention of parenting and the attachment of a Cardassian text on child discipline. His father always kept himself and Joshua in line through strict discipline, but Cardassians were known for even stricter guidelines. He hadn't had much time to discuss any sort of parenting philosophy with Alice. 'That should definitely be something on my to-do list.' Jon leans back in his chair and starts reading 'The Four Lights of Parenting'.

Subject: A Taste of the Alpha Quadrant Right Back at yaDear Fellow Foodie,
Thank you on the congrads. Yes it has been some time, I don't get much mail, I didn't mind this letter. I am happy to hear you are back home and feeling better. Though reaching out to people is not my thing, I do hope it works out for you....you know me the whole universe is a bit of an annoyance.
I do wish you well Tolar, I had heard what happened, and I am sorry. The cookies seem perfect and I am trying to find the proper drink to dunk them into, cold milk just seems so ..bland.
In lieu of your gift I have returned such, a human dessert recipe with a dash of Cardassian flavor, I figure if you dont like the exact recipe its a decent enough of an idea for you to experiment on to pass the time.
Best of luck and..well do stay in touch. Yeah I said it.
Your friend,
Denise

From: Lieutenant Commander Decia Valerina Maximina, U.S.S. Sentinel NCC-99014 To: Lieutenant Tolar Demor, Cardassia Cc: N/A
Subject: Your Invitation
Salutem Lieutenant,
Thank you for your kind words about my promotion. I had heard about your situation and do indeed remember very clearly what you were forced to endure. My heart still breaks when i think of what that monster forced you to endure. I am very glad to have heard you were getting help, when I inquired such about you. You have my prayers and I ask the Son to stand by your side for each step of your recovery. I know such is not your belief but maybe just knowing in spirit that you are not alone may help in some manner.
I am very intrigued and quite honored by your invitation to sponsor me in this competition. I accept and will welcome the challenge of learning such skills from this rare honor you have offered. It would indeed be a pleasure to visit your homeworld as well.
I will look forward to seeing you again Lieutenant, when I arrive. I shall put in the necessary paperwork to arrange leave to attend the competition.
Donec iterum conveniant,
Decia
