He sends further voluntary updates when he gets word that Miles has met with the delegation on Lairouba; then that the Ariel and the Lairouban ship have arrived in Tau Ceti orbit and docked at the station where the talks are to be held; then, halfway into the talks, that Miles has actually deigned to send a report.
Even if he had not explicitly told me everything was going fine, he writes with that last one, I would know it from the fact that he sent a report at all. Miles detests sending reports mid-action; if I hear from him directly, it's because he is feeling dutiful and conscientious and very, very bored.
