His dad's there too and I end up watching old world football with them, falling naturally back into my lifelong pattern of playing around with Wells- betting on whatever team he didn't like for the hell of it and making a ruckus when the ref called a penalty I didn't like. It's familiar. Easy. If he knows something's wrong, he doesn't let on either. /p

As long as she doesn't run into Raven in her rare drop ins to search for useful scraps, she should be undetectable, as no one else ever goes there. At the end of the bathroom is a door to an old cafeteria that hasn't been used since the original unity between Alpha and Mecha stations. Thanks to the way they knitted the station together, this whole area was rendered mute and decommissioned for use. It still has everything needed for temperature and life support, but no people. As dad explains, now it's just used to hold scraps and junk that isn't needed elsewhere. Perfect on the whole, considering. /p

I could have forged the medical files and he could've issued her an I.D. and forged whatever else. It would've been hard and risky, but it could've worked. She could have been free.
