Suspenseful stories are not my bread and butter. And my name... it's something you'll have in time. For now, focus on the others. Their names. Their places in our collective heart...

[affection week strikes again-- gregor quietly takes hold of one of his hands.]
You remember anything else about her?
[honestly, less to dig, and more to let him talk about her if he wants.]
no subject
We matched for a time... after I got this on a mission. I remember. She had to help me get used to it. Had a goddamn peg for a leg.
Her callsign was Jolly Roger. Like a pirate.

no subject
That's what I'm trying to remember too... but...
[ no idea basically. and their jaw clenches, because it really does bother them. ]
If it has anything to do with what is going on here... nothing good, I imagine...
no subject
Mm. Yeah, probably not.
...if we can just figure out more about what exactly is going on here, maybe that'll help.
no subject
Seeing them... even having a name to see on the roster at the same time. I feel like I can make some connections a bit at a time.
Wonder if whoever's in the video with Thebe and Thea works with either of them. Science Department or Hydroponics?

But I feel like you have places in ours too.

Not bad for a mishmashed collection of people from all over.
