Lilith is gone.

[If you don't know Maketh well, the redness around her eyes might be mistaken for a restless night and not from crying.]

The patrol roster will be adjusted accordingly. That is all.

Just doing my job. Someone has to make sure that if she ends up back here, you're still the woman she left behind. We wouldn't want to disappoint her, now would we?

[Because that might result in more explosions than the city needs.]

[Perhaps the smile shows in her voice, no matter how tentative.]

No, no, we wouldn't want that.

[He'll take a tentatively hopeful tone over none at all. He keeps his own tone light as he continues, though his request is very serious.]

If you don't mind me asking... would you keep an eye out for Rey if I ever get sent home? I don't know how well she'd take it. She's got friends here, people who care about her. She just seems to forget that sometimes.

[It's not what Maketh expects him to ask.]

I--of course. You have my word.

[synthedick]

[There's relief in his voice.]

Thanks. There are a few others I could have asked, but you're the one I know I can trust.

[Another reason he wasn't willing to sit by and watch Maketh destroy herself.]

[voice; private]

[mismanagement]

[He--oh.]

I...I won't disappoint you.

[No more than she already has, at least.]

[voice; private]

[synthedick]

I know you won't.

[And he says that with all the sincerity in the world.]
