[He laughs. A dry, sardonic laugh, a far cry from his usual boisterous personality.]

Yeah, CERES. You may not want to make a promise like that, Old Man. I'd hate to have it bite you in the ass.

[Darin huffs and runs a hand over his face. That...That was cold, especially for him. Raven's just looking out for him and he knows it.]

I'm...I'm sorry. I just don't...

I don't do well with faceless beings meddling with my life. It's too much like home. It's too much like my world. And I'm worried that the next time CERES decides to 'mess' with me, it's going to be bad news for everyone in the colony.

Last thing I want is anyone getting hurt.
