I don't own Blindspot or any of these amazing Characters…

Kurt set the bag on the floor of Patterson's lab.

"You found it!" Rich walked over rubbing his hands together.

"Remi remembered," Kurt explained.

Ivan looked up at that.

"Remi?"

Remi moved to her brother's side.

"Ivan?" She reached out and touched his face.

Ivan pulled her into his arms, "I've missed you."

Remi closed her arms around him, "I thought you'd been killed with our parents."

"They sent me to a different facility." Ivan denied.

"Was it…" Remi didn't know how to ask.

"It was a training center," Ivan told her.

"How long were you there?" Remi was afraid to ask. Sheppard had been manipulative, but she'd still been better than the orphanage. If Ivan had stayed there…It didn't bear thinking about it.

"Four years," Ivan admitted, "The facility was shut down, but one of the Doctor's there adopted me."

"He was a part of the experiment and then they let him take you home?" Remi's horror was clearly heard.

"It wasn't like that," Ivan assured her, "He was one of the good ones. He was a scientist and taught me everything he knew. I wouldn't be here now it not for him."

"Where is he now?" Remi asked him.

"He died when I was seventeen," Ivan explained. "Cancer, that's when I decided to concentrate on researching human disease."

"How did Roman find you?" Jane asked him, "How did he even know to look?"

"Sheppard knew I was alive," Ivan explained, "After her organization was destroyed, Roman found me when he was going through her files."

"Did you know that Roman and I were alive?" Remi asked him.

"No," Ivan admitted, "When Roman found me, to say it was a surprise is an understatement."

"Do you know about the tattoos?" Remi demanded.

"I wasn't a part of that," Ivan denied. "All of my focus was on trying to find the cure before Roman slipped completely into madness."

"Is that what's going to happen to me?" Remi asked him with her emotions tightly contained.

"No," Ivan denied, "A lot of my progress was made at Roman's expense. Everything we did is experimental, some of our attempts backfired."

"He was your brother," Kurt was watching their exchange quietly, but couldn't hold back his concern, "Weren't you worried about the possible ramifications and side effects?"

"He was dying," Ivan reminded Kurt, "This gave him at least a chance."

"Is that how you're going to treat Remi?" Rich demanded with a scowl. "As a lab experiment?"

"I love her too," Ivan reminded them quietly.

"So what next?" Remi looked at Ivan with firm resolve.

"I'm going to share my findings with Patterson and Rich," Ivan explained, "See if they have any input in how to complete the sequence that will cure you."

"What if they don't know how to help?" Kurt worried.

"We're going to figure this out," Ivan said confidently, "I won't accept anything less."

"He's definitely your brother," Rich looked over at Remi with a little grin.

"Let's get started," Patterson insisted, unzipping the bag.

"I'm going to take Remi home," Kurt said as he watched them, "It's been a long day."

"We'll keep you posted," Patterson assured him.

Remi demurred, she was exhausted.

"So…" Sawyer looked up at Remi, "You ever play any video games?"

"No," Remi denied, "Sorry."

Sawyer gave her a sad look, "I could teach you."

Sara and Kurt watched the exchange from the kitchen.

"Are you sure it's safe for Sawyer to be around her?" Sara worried.

"It's going to be fine." Kurt insisted.

"How are you so calm?" Sara demanded, "Your wife has been three different people in a little over 48 hours."

"She isn't three different people," Kurt denied, "She's one person and three different times in her life."

"Well," Sara reminded him, "Two of those times are before you. That has to be hard."

"Of course it's hard." Kurt agreed, "But it was harder when I didn't know where she was or what was happening to her."

Suddenly there was a knock on the front door.

Kurt headed over to it with a frown.

Ever since Reade had warned them Blake was having them watched, he'd been on high alert.

Checking the peep hole he gave a big sigh before he pulled open the door.

"You were supposed to stay in school," He chided Avery, giving her a hug.

"Yeah, right." Avery scoffed, "And you were supposed to keep me updated on what was happening. Guess we're both liars."

Remi looked toward the door when Kurt went to answer it. She knew she was relatively safe here, but old habits were hard to break.

When she saw it was her daughter Avery, she froze with her heart racing. Her daughter was close enough to touch…

Avery looked over Kurt's shoulder and asked her. "How are you feeling?"

"I…" Remi didn't know what to say. Her mind was in a whirl…her daughter.

Kurt realized what was happening and he walked over and placed a steading arm around Remi.

"Avery," Kurt introduced her, "This is your mother, Remi."

"Remi," Avery was looking at her in surprise.

"You're…beautiful," Remi told her, tears in her eyes.

Avery had let Jane bridge the gap between them when they met, but having grown with the confidence of being loved, it was Avery's turn to make that effort.

"Can I have a hug?" Avery asked her.

Remi didn't hesitate, she stepped forward and Avery met her half way. Kurt was watching with a smile while the two connected. He should never have warned Avery to say away.

When he turned to look at Sara she had her hand over her mouth while tears rolled silently down her face.

He smiled at her in affection and she joined him. His arm came around her and he waited to introduce his sister to his oldest daughter.

Remi had been exhausted when they left the NYO, but the excitement of meeting her daughter was still coursing through her veins. She couldn't sleep.

"She's still going to be here in the morning," Kurt teased her.

Remi turned on her side and looked at him, "How did you find her?
Kurt took a deep breath and turned to face her. "She found me, actually."

"What?" Remi looked surprised.

Kurt told her the story about how he met her daughter and everything that happened after that.

"So you thought you killed her?" Remi was watching him in the darkened room.

"It wasn't my best moment," Kurt said in major understatement, "Keeping it from Jane…that's one of the things I regret the most. You almost left me for good."

"Why are you telling me this now?" Remi asked him.

"Because I've learned from my mistakes," Kurt said with candor.

"You really love her," Remi realized.

"I really love you," Kurt insisted. "You aren't two separate people."

Remi watched him silently.

"What's wrong?" Kurt worried.

Instead of answering him, Remi closed the distance between them and captured his lips.

Kurt froze for a moment, before his hand came up to cup her neck.

The kiss went from tentative to molten in a heartbeat.

Kurt pushed himself up on his elbow and leaned over Remi as her hands came around him and pulled him down onto her.

With his fingers buried in her hair, Kurt tried to take a breath.

Remi was pulling at the edge of his shirt, when he finally found the strength to roll away.

"What's wrong?" She asked him.

"We need to stop." Kurt insisted.

"Why?" Remi asked him, "Because I'm not Jane?"

"You are my wife," Kurt denied, "No matter what you call yourself."

"Then why stop?" Remi demanded.

"Because Jane and I never had a causal relationship," He explained, "We didn't sleep together until after we admitted we loved one another."

"What does that have to do with anything?" Remi asked him, "You said you loved me."

"But you don't love me," Kurt told her sadly.

Remi had nothing to say to that. She feared that he might be wrong.

Laying back down Remi looked up at the ceiling silently.

Kurt took a deep breath and scooted closer. Remi didn't say anything when he put his arm underneath her and pulled her closer. She held herself stiff for a moment before she turned her face into his side and relaxed.

"Why bother being so sweet to me?" She had to know.

"Because I love you," Kurt told her, "And hopefully someday you'll love me too."

Just that quickly Remi fell. There was no question. She loved him. She didn't tell him, she figured he wouldn't believe her right now if she did. Instead she threw her leg over him and pulled the covers up over them both.

Kurt didn't comment on the fact that she'd assumed Jane's favorite position when they slept, but his heart acknowledge it and his arms held her secure against him. He fell asleep with hope in his heart.

"This is impossible," Rich complained, looking at the mass of data hand written in the bag.

"Why didn't you keep this computerized?" Patterson asked Ivan.

"I didn't want to risk it being stolen," Ivan told them.

"You could have kept in on a computer than had never been connected to the internet." Rich insisted in exasperation.

"It's going to take us forever to get this data imputed," Patterson worried.

"We should just work it manually," Ivan told them.

"No way," Rich denied, "The computer can help us cycle through your results and come up with possible outcomes. That way Jane won't have to be a Guinea Pig. "

"Rich is right," Patterson agreed, "We can look for patterns and run simulations once it's in the system."

"Then let's get it in," Ivan reluctantly agreed, looking at the stack of journals in front of them.

"Roman told Jane he had other drives hidden that have additional information." Patterson looked at Ivan suspiciously, "What do you know about that?"

"Nothing," Ivan denied, "Unless he was keeping his own records. Maybe he already put all this data in."

"Would he have any results you don't have here?" Patterson asked Ivan.

I guess he could have had someone else looking into it as well." Ivan conceded. "But I wasn't sharing data with anyone and Roman never gave me any other reports."

"I'll be right back," Rich told them, "I'm going to need my fuzzy slippers and house coat for this."

When Ivan looked at him strangely Rich explained, "When I know I'm not getting sleep any time in the near future, but I'm tired, I pretend like I'm getting ready for bed. It somehow makes me feel better.

Ivan watched him go without saying a word.

Patterson waited until they were alone before she confronted him. "You keep making it sound like you know nothing about the drives, or who Roman might have been talking to, but you have to be lying."

"Because you believe that I am Roman," Ivan theorized.

"Your DNA is Romans…and Jane thought Ivan died with your parents." Patterson reminded him.

"I'm not Roman," Ivan insisted.

"All I'm saying is that if you are Roman…you need to tell me. Jane's life depends on us getting this right. Don't play games with her life."

"I would never do that," Ivan insisted.

Patterson sighed at his continued denials.

When Rich came back he had on his fuzzy slippers and he was wearing his house coat, what he hadn't told them was he was going to take off his pants.

"Rich…what are you doing?" Patterson stared at him blankly.

"I can't sleep with my pants on," Rich explained.

"You aren't sleeping," Patterson reminded him.

"I'm pretending I'm sleeping," Rich reminded her, "Weren't you paying attention?"

"I was trying not to," Patterson said under her breath.

It was obviously still too loud, because Rich became affronted and Ivan laughed.

They were eating breakfast when it happened.

Avery was telling them a funny story about her trip back when she made this habitual little gesture.

Remi was watching her with a little smile.

"What?" Avery demanded.

"That thing you just did," Remi explained, "Your Father used to do that, too."

The entire room went silent.

"My biological father?" Avery confirmed.

"Yes," Remi confirmed, "He used to tell stories just like that. His hands would be flying and his voice would get animated. He was normally so reserved, it was good to see."

"You know who my father is?" Avery confirmed.

"Of course," Remi scowled at her, "He was my first real boyfriend. We were in High School and for the first time ever I felt normal. It didn't last, but I'm not sorry it happened."

"What's his name?" Avery asked her.

"His name is Clem Hann," Remi told her, "He was so upset when Sheppard took you. Roman and I were determined to find you, but Clem just disappeared one day. For the longest time I though Sheppard had done something to him, but years later he came back and told me he'd been looking for you. When he couldn't find you he started looking to other missing people. He wanted me to join him, but I had already committed to the military so he left without me."

"Clem is Avery's Father?" Kurt felt sick.

"Yes," Remi confirmed, "Why?"

"When you were on the run," Kurt explained, "You started working K&R with a man named Clem."

"You mean that was real?" Remi looked startled.

"What was real?" Avery asked her.

"I had this really vivid memory of working with him, but he was older. I thought It was all just a dream," Remi told them.

Kurt suddenly realized that Jane had been having difficulties with the zip even longer than they realized. If Remi remembered being with Clem, then Jane had been transitioning between Remi and Jane for months without them realizing it. It explained a lot about things he'd rather forget.

"How long were you with Clem?" Kurt hated asking her.

"Just a day," Remi looked away uncomfortably, "I don't remember leaving though."

"So the man that helped rescue me," Avery confirmed, "Is my biological father."

"So it would seem," Kurt confirmed.

"Why didn't he say anything?" Avery demanded.

"I don't know," Kurt admitted.

"I want to talk to him," Avery decided, "Find out why he didn't tell me…tell us."

"Jane has him as a contact in her phone," Kurt hated that he was suddenly feeling threatened by a relationship that was in the past. He knew that his wife had chosen him, but that was before she remembered Clem was the father of her child. Add to that Avery had just begun to accept him in a fatherly capacity and now she had her actual father to turn to.

Suddenly Remi's hand took his and squeezed it gently. She was watching him with an understanding expression and he was struck by just how like Jane Remi actually was.

He smiled at her in reassurance, but he didn't let go of her hand. He needed that reassuring contact more than ever.

She didn't let go while they listened to Avery leave a message for Clem.

Okay…I know…I am still trying to rewrite Jane cheating on Kurt. I can't help myself. NOT SORRY. :)
