"Then what were you asking about?"
"Maybe you need to rest your circuits some more?" He waited a moment. "To be in charge…how did it feel to be in charge?"
Tim shrugged. "No big deal."
"No big deal? No big deal? You were captain of the ship…the big cheese…the chief of our little tribe…"

"Is that what I was doing?" He thought for a moment. "Yeah, I guess I was…just don't get used to it."
