[sinclair, buddy. he gets a nod in return, but he lets sinclair go about his business with the vice-captain, heading on to his (mumbles) military things. you know. normal stuff he does all the time.
if he's got the free time for it, then... of course he wants to go to see yuri. she worries, he knows; besides, it'd be best to take it easy for the time being. he's gotten everything done for the day, no need to strain himself if there's the potential for new engagements on the horizon. it'd just be silly to get injured ahead of it because he pushed too hard.]
[Yuri is surprised to see Gregor, but pleasantly so. She prepares dinner for the both of them, making a hearty soup, and chats with him over dinner about her day. Sometimes, when Gregor can't always visit home, it might feel as though there isn't enough time to talk with her like this, but that might make these moments even more important.
Adjusting to a new country isn't easy; like Gregor, Yuri's still finding her footing in Riven, after they lost their home. Still, she's made friends at her job, such as her coworkers Shoma and Rodya, the latter of whom walks her home when it's late enough to be dangerous. The neighbour, Dante, also looks out for her. All in all, she's doing okay.
It's something resembling peace, for both her and Gregor. (Perhaps that's something Gregor has longed for, even if he may not quite recall the beginning of it all.)]
[he sits with her for dinner, listening to her talk, telling her about his own day in turn-- these moments really are important for him, honestly.
despite the work he's taken on, despite being someone who's much more skilled now in combat than pretty much anything else he could've done to support them... well, being a soldier is exactly what gives them this kind of momentary peace. he tries not to think about it not lasting forever; it lasts for now, which is the important part. she's safe, and even if he goes off to fight again, she should still be safe here. she's got more people than just gregor looking out for her.
he really should do something for them all, sometime... maybe for her birthday, he always tries to save up for that.]

As Gregor enjoys the night with his sister, he wakes up.]
