I also recommended he see one of the therapists on board, as it's very clear he is troubled, but ensuring he goes is likely something that would be more successful if attempted by someone he already knows and trusts.

[he notes that she says either of us, but doesn't comment on it.]

No. I did not do what I did because I thought others would conveniently clean up after me. It was to stop anyone on the team from losing their lives, because that space bridge does not come with a guarantee.

[Nova gets up and starts to pace with a screech that only seems amplified through the comm line]

What do I gotta do to make you get this?! It doesn't matter what your reasoning was or if it made good tactical sense or even if I would've done it, too!

What matters is you stopping to think! So yes, the therapist thing is fine. Great. But you're doubling down on a decision that has impact Prime. Didn't anybody ever tell you that insisting you're correct despite any and all evidence is my job? Even if it was the only possible resolution, which it probably wasn't, you aren't taking responsibility! You're in damage control mode like a fragging politician! Just-

Just say it was the best worst choice you could've made. Say it was bad, but it had to be done. And we'll ignore how you'd do it again if you had the option.

[he could say what she's asking him to, because that is how he feels about it and almost what he said to rock about it.

but this feels like a trap, and he doesn't really want to give her the satisfaction of it. dying gives him such a terrible headache.]

Do what you need to, Nova Storm.

[is all he says, before he cuts the call.]
