So maybe he'd been avoiding Pax since they got back. He really... doesn't know how to handle this situation. He doesn't want to give up on the friendship, he doesn't want to lose his partner... but...

He'd gone back to an old project. Rounding up bits and pieces until he managed to cobble together a video player. He'd found a couple undamaged recordings, and it wouldn't hurt to see what was on them.

He's set up in a small building near the medical bay, putting the finishing touches on the device.
