I just would rather not address you too familiarly. I'll use your preferred form of address if you have one.

Not particularly.
[ once, maybe. when he'd been willing to put his head on the execution block for the sake of defending him. it isn't really that he felt he lost a friend, when david rolled into shiloh with tanks. more so that he'd never actually had one. ]
You're a good Captain. I've known Kings less willing to do the same.

We do not have kings back home, only the Mother Alone.
[ More of a religious figure than any named power is what she is — was, now that Khilesa is gone. But she held all the songs, taught all the words, saw the weave behind the light in entirety.
She would never be a mother, because she was the mother of all. The Mother Alone. ]

[ At the moment, his mind wants to tell himself it's another of those loyalty testing missions that Dagger put on him, or some other thing they need done and now have two recruits in debted enough to have insured completion.
But he remembers what Dagger told him - not even he wants to know what happened when Simon was made to visit Gliese. And what Blue Team is meant to do. Handle dissent. Either way, it's not enough information to know, and while Jack has a habit of bracing for the worst, he's hoping that 'boom' from Ghost isn't actually playing into this. ]

The ones who came up missing never did check in.

[ faith in others has never been a thing jack's been well versed in or fond of. it's an extension of trust that hasn't gone particularly well for him in the past, and one he was taught not to rely on. however, like he'd told mother, scott and d'artagnan, the neheda crew is his home now. if there's anyone on it he should trust, it would be gliese.
the response comes eventually, albeit delayed. ]

[ When they'd spoken before, Jack had found Gliese's race's religion intriguing. Pleasant seeming, really. Something too along the lines of enchanting for his own world to know. 'Mother Alone', he's not certain if it should tie in to that, though religions tend to do that. Have something paternal or maternal. Pilot's had something similar. ]

A ruler? A religious figure?

[ she'd told him something before - plant helplessness in yourself, and it will be difficult to uproot once it takes. advice he'd wished he'd understood when he was younger. he'd said michelle was the only one he'd do anything for anymore, and jack has to believe whatever this is, he'll live through it. everything else is temporary. ]

I won't be deadweight for this crew, nor will I let my sister. If you need to see us for that to happen, so be it.

How is she chosen?
[ she'd also said 'final harvest' and 'songs', and it paints a picture he's not sure is accurate, but is a deep kind of peaceful either way. he remembers, also, that gliese's world no longer exists. according to her file, the CDC had promised her vengeance for that. he also remembers that she is, even now, very young for her speices, and was younger still then. ]

Gliese, Alina is missing from her rover. Koroleva is with me, and it's unlike Alina to leave her behind. Do you know if she's been sent somewhere?
FROM: sturmhond@cdc.org
I won't ask questions, if that's the case. But if it's something else, if she's been harmed, or something's taken her. I want to know how concerned I should be.
