remember when...

What had come of their relationship? Was Modesty not the other half he had so desperately been looking for? Why hadn't he let her in? Was it truly pity? Did he feel sorry because she was burdened with the pups she had wanted? The pups her family had pressed upon her. In truth, he could have utilized her. Could have used her honesty and opinion on these things. And instead, he had been caught up in his own selfishness that he had allowed other things to slip on by. Her words weren't wrong. He agreed. The whole Ignis thing he was pissed about and the man was this close to getting kicked out if he hadn't been so helpful with the current expansion.

Maybe he had gotten too soft in his years. Maybe it was time to straighten up and get with the program. They were the fucking Raiders. They weren't supposed to take shit from anyone and currently, he was allowing that to happen. Hating that Modesty was right, he continues to look away. Sad and frustrated, he gives his head a shake. "You know I'll always choose you," his voice trembles as he fights internally over what he was saying. "I can't just send her on her way yet. She's still injured and though I'm a stupid asshole, I can't literally throw her to the wolves, Mod," he whispers, eyes staring at the ground because he knows Modesty is going to hate that answer. "If I-I make her stay on the beach, would that be enough to get you to come home?"
