-— Jupiter — I do not care that you are a grown adult, please mind your language.
How dare you imply that I do not help with Mars? Was I wearing an invisibility cloak as I came to help while you were there? Or do you forget that I have children as well and cannot move in with Mars to be a full time nanny? What do you possibly think the rest of us do here? Simply because we do not travel means that we do not work? Are you implying that each of us is simply lazy as you make your grand travels and avoid your own family?
By the grace of God, I will mention Saturn. He is my brother too. As much as I worry for you, I worry for him as well. He has seemed quite upset since you left, and of course I'm going to try to get you two to talk. If you think I have not asked him to write you than you don't know me at all. That is what family is for, to pester their stubborn siblings until the two talk things out and stop acting like spoiled children!
To be blunt, I care more about this family than about your name being in a research paper for the glory of it all. If you are so unhappy with the unbalanced and unfair nature of your work, find a more stable career. I can't control what your coworkers do, but I can say that the health, safety, and happiness of my family matters more to me than one career that whisks you away. I love you with all my heart, Jupiter. I just don't want you to miss out on everything that goes on in your own family. We love you and we miss you.
