My son consistently bests me in any game we play together.

This was when he dominated me in my own map, dm_vertico.

I swear I used to have reaction times like that....

I played vertico a bunch back in the day - this was a nostalgia trip! Great to see you and Scott having a blast together - some of my fondest memories are fragging my dad in Elite Force and Jedi Outcast.

Also also!
My partner and I got a kitten a couple of months ago and we named her River. I only now realised that I probably had that name lodged in my head from you, so thankyou

Your son is doing a good job, but you... I think you're getting older.

Now I wonder whether I'll have the same 'problem' with my daughter 10 years from now, heh.

River is a nice name. Now we know why it's an apt name for her: https://youtu.be/3_YmlqCIEt8

Wow! Captain P! I haven't heard from you for so long.

You were my early mapping mentor. Congratulations on your daughter. How old is she now?

Hao jiu bu jian, haha!

Thanks! She's 2.5, old enough to talk all day long, do jigsaw puzzles and make abstract art. It's a joy.

Children are blessings, especially when they're your own.

Enjoy every moment. They grow up way too fast.
