Meet-n-Greet

[cityship]

After being released from stasis, having the slime removed from their bodies and clothed in the creepy, pulsing leaf-suit that everyone wore, and being taken to the Weapons & Possessions lockers to collect their belongings, the new arrivals would find themselves standing in the Observation Deck. Round windows lined the fleshy walls, revealing the bright display of lights that was inter-dimensional travel. They would also discover that there were people--members of the command staff and crew that had woken earlier--waiting for them.

"I don't think she could relapse with someone like you believing in her so strongly," Luke said kindly. "What happened to her was not your fault; there are those who wish to manipulate and use others, and tell lies to get their way. You mustn't blame yourself for it any more. Let go of your fear and self-hatred."

"I was right there, how could it not be my fault," Andros muttered, not intending for Luke to hear him. Self-hatred was a good word for it, he was responsible for so much pain, for so many people. Maybe one day he'd get it right.

He touched his hand to the locket around his neck briefly, before suppressing the urge and putting his fists by his side. It was very odd to have the locket so visible. Normally he wore it under clothing, which, in this case, wouldn't work well. The Ranger shook his head, burying his feelings deep down again until he could find a quiet cubbyhole somewhere to angst in private.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to drag you into this. It isn't your problem, but thank you for listening and your advice."

He could feel the pain, deep and abiding in Andros, and it hurt him too. But Luke knew now that he couldn't save everyone, and if change was going to come to this young man it would have to come from within. "I was called to help out those who need it," Luke said gently. "Please come to me if you need anything?"
