[ Entirely without foreknowledge that Hook gets dropped a couple of months from now-- ]
I'm glad you have him, out here.
[ Although it isn't entirely future infomodding when Charles feels a slight twinge, one twinge from several different places. He has friends who he misses very much, and the Tranquility has ways of changing the playing field so drastically that even when they don't go away, something goes wrong. Going forward in time. Incredible trauma.
That pang of caution and regret echoes gently through the empathetic connection still held open, which unhelpfully only serves as reminder for Charles to withdraw. Her goofy smile is precious and he doesn't want to ruin it. ]
