Don't worry about me. Long story short? Kind of in the military for a bit. Special ops. Best male operative they had and yes before you ask the only two better than me were women.

Really kickass women.

[So don't go assuming he's keeping you in place because he doesn't think you can kick ass. He's just used to running support ops.]

I'm used to avoiding detection.

[bladedance]

[Oh, she knows that the amount of ass she can kick here has been severely limited by the removal of her Techs. So if he says he's okay coming to get her, then fine, she'll roll with it. Especially if he's got stealth on his side - that's something she's never had anyway.]

Understood. I'll be here, and armed.

And hey, York? ... Thank you. Really.

Anytime Rei-Rei. I got you, you got me. We can stay in and have drinks when I bring you back. See if you can't put Jim under the table again and teach me that hip move dance you did last time. That's gorgeous and you have my envy for being able to pull it off.

[There's rustling and movement- he's putting on the armor. No upgrades and only a decent hunk of power but he's been able to jury rig the grid in his apartment to charge it. The house has been working pretty well. Suiting up is familiar. It's comfortable.

For a moment he misses D like a limb. Like his eye. It passes and he's on.]

We'll be laughing about this later, you'll see.

[bladedance]

[She's smiling a little. She's still worried about this whole thing - who wouldn't be? But she does feel a bit better since she's going to be with friends.]

Hey, I'll teach you what I can, but a Force never reveals all of her secrets.

[Joking to take the edge off? You bet.]

Yeah. I hope you're right.

[goddamngrenades]

Maybe just a few if I ask really, really nicely?

[His voice and smile are so very warm and so very casual. Hey. it's not the end of the world. They got this. It's going to be okay. Everything is going to be okay.]

I'll be there in half an hour, alright? If I'm not call me back and I'll tell you where I am.
