It had been a couple weeks since Finn had first visited Leland. He had told no one else about his miraculous survival -he wanted Leland to himself for the time being. He knew if Leland's survival had been disclosed to Siddeley, he'd get a lot less alone time with him, and Finn already felt like he had to fight for every second of privacy when it came to Leland, as Smith was always watching, on cameras and sometimes in-person when he had nothing better to do -he had always been nothing but a paper pusher, after all. Finn knew he had outed himself to Smith that first night, but to be truthful, it didn't bother him. As soon as Leland woke up, he'd be officially retired by the agency -there was no way in hell he'd be able to work again, at least not with CHROME.

Finn sat in his office one late night, finishing up some paperwork. Since that first night, Finn was now permitted to see Leland without any above-normal security clearance as long as he stated to be visiting "Leland Taylor" whenever arriving at the hospital. Smith had at least been nice enough to put Finn down as a family member of Leland's so that he could visit whenever -being a bureaucrat did come with some perks, after all. Upon hearing a knock on the door, he looked up from his work. Through his office door's window, he could see a slender young woman, her green eyes behind small wire-frame glasses and her brunette hair tied up in a bun with long, parted bangs -Holley Swiftwell.

"You may come in, Holley." He sat up straight as she silently entered. He gave her a very small, restrained smile. She smiled back, her expression warmer than his.

"Is something wrong, Holley?" She shook her head.

"It's just that I noticed you have a photo of Agent Turbo on your desk now -I saw it last time I was in here." Finn blinked slowly. She didn't know either -but why would she, she had never even met Leland. He was surprised she even knew who he was -he had never once discussed Leland with her, meaning that Siddeley must have said something to her. He chuckled dryly.

"It's times like this where it becomes obvious you used to be in analytics. Yes, I am keeping a photo of Agent Turbo on my desk. Leland..."

"...Leland was the best friend I've ever had." His eyes turned to the photo, which sat on his desk in a frame. It was very small, wallet-sized, and it sat in an appropriately tiny frame.

"May I see the photo, if you don't mind?"

"Of course, Holley -it's no trouble at all." He handed the framed photo to Holley. She studied it -It looked a little dated, but the main point of interest was that Leland seemed to be completely off-duty, wearing a black-and-white Hawaiian shirt. He stood about ten feet away from the photographer, presumably Finn, smiling for the camera with his hands behind his back. It was sunset on a beach.

"Honolulu, 1992. We went there for his late sister's wedding. If memory serves me right her name was Pamela."

"You two went there together..."

"Yes."

"He brought you to his sister's wedding."

"Yes, Holley, he did. Now what are you getting at?" This was a trick question -what she was going to say was already obvious to Finn.

"Finn, are you gay?" He looked up at her, locking eyes.

"I believe you already know the answer to that one." Holley nodded.

"And Agent Turbo was your lover..." Finn sighed.

"We knew each other since we were recruits." He shifted in his seat.

"We were undercover in Hong Kong, back in late 1986. Leland and me were waiting in this club to meet an informant, but the bloke never showed up. I was young and single, still figuring myself out. Leland was hot off the heels of a breakup with a woman. We were actually having fun at this club while waiting around, and towards the end of the night he kissed me when nobody was looking. We gave up on waiting for the informant after that." Finn paused for a moment to catch his breath -he could be quite the fast talker.

"We were driving back to the hotel, and I brought up the kiss. He apologized... and I told him there was no need to. It had felt so right, our kiss in that club. Leland told me that he had broke up with his girlfriend after he had came out to her -and this was in the 1980s, when the AIDS epidemic was killing gay men like us left and right. Perhaps our devotion to each other spared us, I don't know." Finn sighed once more.

"After Leland said that, I confessed that I had never been sure of myself, and that when I was growing up in the East End of London, I had become infatuated with an older male schoolmate, but nothing had ever came of it."

"And that night we fell in love with each other. At first we hid it from the world, then just CHROME. But I believe I'm done hiding now."

"I just wish I would have gotten done with hiding sooner."
