"Yeah everyone is good, or soon will be, mostly thanks to you. And I don't know, Snaps, but never is a long time. We are a combat unit, so we'll be in hotspots a lot, but they rotate us out from time to time. I'm sure we'll see each other again."

He pauses and smirks. "If you're going to miss us that bad, you could always put in for a transfer to the specs. We could use a combat engineer."

Between her hesitation and the slight shift of her expression it would be clear to anyone observing the girl that she at least somewhat considered the suggestion.

Afterall, this was the second time Holler had mentioned it, and, although she had sent her letter to Trax what felt like forever ago, she had not received a reply.

What if they had all forgotten about her?

Holler and his team felt almost as close to family as Kesh had right now, and if Trax and the others weren't going to re-enter her life at all, well, family was a good thing, right?

But, her thoughts flashed back to her time on the Death Station and the combat they had seen there. She hadn't really been very good with that, had she? And she was still just a kid. What could she possibly do to help Holler's team that wasn't just getting in the way and causing them to babysit her?

She let out a sigh and sipped her kavvy tentatively (not sure how hot it was) for a moment for an excuse for her hesitation if nothing else.

"They need me here." she said, finally, but it was clear she wasn't quite sure anymore.

Holler nods. "Sure. But you get a voice in that as well, right? Lots of need to go around, and we can make some choices in that. Keep it in mind is all I'm saying."

She smiled but then her smile faded.

"I don't even have combat training, though. How could I be a combat engineer? I just get people hurt who are looking out for me. Who wants a kid around to be responsible for protecting all the time? Shooting can be trained, but not the instincts you all have."

She shook her head.

"I should probably just stay here. But, Holler, thank you. I was feeling pretty lonely and lost here before I met you and your team and you guys *did* kinda take me in. It's nice to feel like family."

And without thinking, she reached out to wrap the Spec in a tight hug, not really giving him a chance to resist.
