Gaheris Rhade

Our people were meant to be living gods, warrior-poets who roamed the stars bringing civilization, not cowards and bullies who prey on the weak and kill each other for sport. I never imagined they'd prove themselves so inferior. I didn't betray our people – they betrayed themselves.

I'm going to need extra help on the dinner shift for a few days until Ben is prepared to assist me again. I don't care who.

[And that's the extent of that message. He's guessing if anyone wants to speak with him, they will. And if they don't, they hopefully just got tired of this place and left.]

[Private to Dylan | Audio]

Did you make it out alright?

I made it. Blonsky, too. On a scale of one to ten, one being a day where the most dangerous thing that happens is Beka trying to cook, and ten being a full blown Magog invasion...I'd say it was a seven.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

[And that's pretty much all he says. No rating or anything else. He just cuts the feed. Stressful situations sometimes still bring out the jerk in Gaheris.]

[Dylan assumes that the phrase "I'm fine" means "Something terrible happened" fifty percent of the time. So he goes to knock on Rhade's door to make sure that he really is fine.]

[Depending on how long Dylan actually waits, it takes Rhade a while to answer. When he does, he's wiping off his hands. He actually isn't terribly roughed up- it could be much worse.

His "I'm fine," in this case, is almost a self-reprimand for not being able to adequately protect his inmate.]

[Dylan is patient. Especially when it comes to verifying that Rhade is still not dead. When he opens the door, Dylan breaths a sigh of relief.]

Hey.

[And now he feels a little awkward for banging on his friend's door now that its clear that he's definitely neither dead nor dying.]

I'm glad you're okay.

I am.

[He thinks back to those tiny, childish figures. He couldn't even kill the same child soldier that Dylan had to. But he can recognize that he's being a dick.]

I'm glad you are, too.

[He considers inviting him in, instead looks torn for a couple of moments before he steps out of his room and locks the door instead.

There's another attempt to say something. It apparently fails, as well. So he just doesn't add onto it and starts for the stairwell. He might as well go do extra work in the kitchen.]
