[the username isn't familiar, and that gives him some pause. but, in reading the message — he knows who this is: the man who'd been hassled by the SIN guards on the street for wearing mandalorian armor, who'd been with him just before he'd lost consciousness. there's a twinge of guilt in him at the realization.
he doesn't take long with the reply, though.]
That happens sometimes here. People go to sleep for a few days, but as far as I've heard, no one knows why.
[they go to sleep and sometimes wake up with memories, but cassian doesn't mention that part.]
[ There's no point in telling him that he got into another altercation that extended his stay. He went right home and took a shower, and put clean clothes on under his armor while his roommate wasn't in and was none the wiser. ]
[that knowledge sits heavily. max said he was out for four days, so if the man had just been released, that's around two days longer than his own first sentence in the people zoo had been. it wouldn't surprise him if they'd decided to start being harsher on people who've just arrived, but —
it still makes him angry.
there's no point in asking what they'd done to him in there, because he knows exactly what, knows exactly what happens in those cells. so, instead:]
[ Unfortunately, Din's time was purchased more than once during his almost week-long stay in the zoo, but he got to keep his clothes and armor and since there had been other submissives in a similar situation with nothing on at all he considered it a fair bargain.
One that he wouldn't discuss with anyone, however. ]

Then someone came and collected you for your dominant.
I have no idea whether or not you've come out of the coma, or why what they hit you with was so lasting.
Please follow up with me when you are able.

It hasn't been long since I woke up.

I am.
[there are other things to talk about, anyway. other questions to ask.]
How long did they hold you?
[he hopes the answer isn't they still are, but he also wouldn't put anything past this place.]

I have the time.
What are your coordinates?

There's a bar in the Down called The Neptune. They take devices at the door.
[aka less chance for surveillance.
next comes the location for that. and a follow-up message:]
I can be there in 20 minutes.
