It's Hange, Hange, Hange! Were you looking for me? I'll get back to you posthaste. Or when it's convenient.

[ communicator & actionspam it's all good ]

Always!

On my way.

[ The hug is… good. Going to get a good squeeze back. But there’s a tension in him too that’s entirely new. ]

He was supposed to be safe. And on the way to Earth. But… apparently not.

He’s here. As an inmate. The only way he’d come here… as far as I can think of it.

Apparently, sometimes it happens.

[ He is going to the chair though. ]

[ That? Would be perfect. ]

Annoyed that he died. Concerned about… the barge.

[ He looks up at Hange. ]

I think this place could be good for him. There’s a part of me that thinks. It’s almost necessary that he’s here. If we’re going to continue to be. Us.

[ He looks over at Hange. ]

But he’s destructive. Brilliantly. Destructive. I’m sure he’ll cause more than a few injuries. Possibly a few casualties.

Exactly.

[ Daniel has a lot of advantages he doesn’t even realize and Kepler is well aware that this is more fortuitous than it is an actual problem. Though he knows that the ‘lack’ of consequences might make Daniel more reckless than he needs to be. ]

If you get assigned to him, I hope you understand why I’ll recuse myself from assisting. And why he won’t believe for a moment that I have.

And he hates it. Specifically? Me? Having friends. Having... people who matter. The more reminders?

The more he'll buck.

[ He gives Hange a faint smile. ]

Because. They are people? who aren't him. or Maxwell. Who I care about.

And the fact that I opened up to them while I've been here. That I was able to... work on myself like this...

Logically? He knows the role my world played. My job played. Cutter... played. But only half of Jacobi is logic. And it's not the louder half.

[ A nod. ]

And made him feel... less than.

After all, if I could be open. Show emotions. Care... openly about people? Why couldn't I do that with him.

[ He gestures with one hand. ]

Part of it is that he's finding out new things. Part of it... is that he's finding out old things. that put the old things he knew? Into a new context. But even then... I was his CO. I protected him from... a lot.

[ He nods. It’s one of the reasons why, despite everything, he wouldn’t mind if Hange did in fact end up with Jacobi: she’ll understand that point. She’ll understand some of the decisions, some of what it means, some of the things they did and the scope of it. He just has to make sure Jacobi doesn’t try and blow her up. ]

He’ll adjust. But not without… incident.

Excessive damage. And unnecessary harm.

I think all of them, including you? Can survive this. But it's going to be messy. Especially without... falling into old habits.

Awww the Triangle made it, that's great. Slightly terrifying, but great.

[ He gives her a quick wink because he's proud of her, graduating two inmates at this point, for all that Luke had done a lot of the initial roughing out there. A polish is nothing to sneeze at. And hell, he hasn't graduated even one inmate. Not yet.

He's wondering if it'll only be one, given Jacobi's presence here. He'd never leave him. ]


Old habits involve... using him. Like my right hand. Acting like a CO. Keeping things from him... for his own good. Protecting him... sometimes to his detriment.

Keeping my distance is... not an option.

[ The collateral damage alone makes it a bad idea. But the damage to their relationshsip that would cause is astronomical. It's also not something he wants or could even really maintain in his current state. He feels too much for and about Jacobi to stay away. ]

I don't want our old relationship. I want a new relationship. That's actually... a relationship.

[ The tone makes it clear what he means. ]
