[ keith just stands between them both, not directly, but you know... honestly maybe he's a little closer than he should be, giving them both some room might be better, but he's feeling very sticky right now.
watches gan breathe, unconsciously matching his breaths, while he places a hand on io's shoulder. a gentle pat pat... ]
No where is really safe, not from whatever is on this ship. [ frowns, thinking back to thursday and how he was snatched by weird tendrils. ] It seems to always finds a way.
Kinda feels like knocking you guys out, the way it did, was almost like a punishment too. [ he sounds so annoyed. ]
[ io just nods in agreement with the delivery of that because. yeah. that's precisely what it sounds like. at the gentle pat, io blinks somewhat... but does not pull away, settling a little into it as well.
dryly: ]
Can't wait to see what else is in store then.
[ glancing worriedly at ganymede's jaw for maybe too long a moment before looking away to just pat around his desk for his journal, paging it open and making a few notes. ]
And removal is... not optimal at this time. For any of us. Between having had them for quite a while and... the recovery time, we'd be down for too long.
Not... not really. [ anywhere being safe. but, god, ganymede sure wishes that there was somewhere safe. it's so disheartening, and it's obvious by the way he lowers his head a little.
he does at least reach and rub at io's arm when he catches the look, before reaching up to carefully rub at the underside of his jaw, trying to work out the tension. like when you get a muscle cramp, but in your whole face. ]
Some of us... need it to live. Thebe. Amalthea. [ not their two big boys, at least. ] Recovery pods can't replace organs. And Io's right. Takes too long for... proper replacements. Io and Europa's ports are easier. Adrastea's eyes, my wetware. Metis'... everything.
Not sure about - about Callisto. [ looking to io like ???? what the FUCK wetware does callisto have, actually? like he can't remember what he might have needed replaced during their tour. ]
