"Yeah, Caboose had stuck me in this alien artifact thing for a while. I had a fucking laser eye, it was kind of awesome." He's at least over the flare of anger and shifts slightly.

"..Feel like letting me hop in while you explore? I don't really like walking around like this."

"That sounds like Caboose, assuming he shot you at some point along the way."But him being a living weapon would be a new thing. "Could you actually hit anything?" Fair question given his accuracy.

"Letting you...inside me?" It sounded weird to say that, weirder to think. "Well way to go right for intimacy on the first date." She rubbed the back of her neck and shrugged. "Sure ok, let's do this."

"Well I tried to blow up Washington but I only destroyed a wall. Did kill some guy in brown armor though, out in the desert." He'd been about to kill Tucker, though.

"Asshole called me a thing."

And then he's just standing there because he's gotten used to riding along with Carolina and the guys and he hadn't actually thought about ..."Yeah, I'll just walk.."

"Brown armor? Freelancer armor?" CT? Well clearly not CT as Tex had ended that possibility but there was still her armor out there that hadn't been retrieved. Another failure on her part.

"I knew a suit that fell in with the Insurrectionists, or freedom fighters depending on who you ask."

"Hey don't be self conscious, I'm ok with it. I haven't had a ride along except with Omega so... He was aggressive." She stepped closer. "It's ok, maybe it'll even help."

"Called himself CT, yeah. Wash took Carolina back there and showed her. Guess it wasn't who they were expecting." He shifted his weight slightly and then took a step forward.

"...Okay." And it's not like the first time he's entered Tex's armor but the thing in the facility was different, He'd gone in to talk to her.

And this isn't her. He has to remind himself of that before he finally just steps forward, shifting back to his smaller form and then into her. It's a little less awkward in the small form, at least.

"...Yeah, I've dealt with him. He's difficult." He's now more or less floating over her shoulder.

"It must have been one of her Innie pals." SHe shrugged and decided that was better discussed another time, she didn't need residual guilt on her mind for this.

It felt odd, not uncomfortable but just a strange invasive sense that was nothing like Omega. There was none of the oppressive hostility he carried with him, it actually felt, maybe a little nice? At least on the inside he would see her as she had come to see herself. Human body and all.

"Difficult?" She snorted. "He was a bastard who wanted to kill, maim, destroy and take over everything." She clenched her fist. "He amped me up, when we were paired and I felt unstoppable. But in downtime he was never satisfied. He'd get restless and angry. Anytime I even thought about pulling him he'd lash out."

"I know what he was like, yeah. His memory was a little easier to control, but he was definitely there with me before I died." And this is probably the first time he's said it that easily.

"Doc developed a second personality based off him." Which was pretty unsettling, even if O'Malley was useful in a fight

"Sorry, I sort of feel like he was always supposed to be my problem to deal with. He and I, we had something he didn't have with anyone else. I guess it's because of who I am and he got the angry territorial parts." Each of them were parts of the original, and they all got something of that personality but concentrated. Omega had always considered her his property.

"He tended to do that, everyone except other Church. But hard for part of you to change you, I guess. Even Caboose was changed." Caboose's usefulness was in question from her point of view though.

"At least he's gone now." Along with the rest of them, although he kind of misses Theta and the rest, even though he could probably bring them back in his own space, but...

"...None of us deserved what happened to us." And that was honestly the crux of it.

That was easy for him to say, or maybe it wasn't. But for her there would always be a weight of responsibility on her shoulders. She was supposed to be handling him because of Omega's level of relative instability in others.

She was supposed to take out CT clean and return with her armor. She was supposed to end things once and for all. But she was never quite good enough.

Tex shook her head. "None of you did."

"Yeah, but the us? That includes all of you too, Carolina, Wash, the other Freelancers, you." After a moment.

"We weren't the only ones who paid the price for his obsession, Tex. Everyone in the program did." And some more than others, true.

"He was..." Epsilon exhaled a breath, his gaze shifting back to her.

"When we found him, he was just watching that goddamn clip over and over again."

"You know I was never really part of the group right? The Director kept me separate at first and then the others just never, I made them uncomfortable." Except Carolina, she just pissed her off.

Why did that hurt? Damn them for making her with feelings at all, she should have been dispassionate like the fragments.

"It was the last time he saw her alive. The last time she saw them." And fuck she hated that she had that pain inside her too, regret and loss and grief. "Memory was all he had left of her, it was everything."

"It wasn't all he had left of her. He had something else, but it didn't fucking matter to him." And that honestly had pissed him off more than the rest of it.

Breathe, Epsilon.

"You were never a part of us in the sense of us being part of the Alpha, but you were one of us, all the same, Tex. Just on a different level."

"After Allison he lost himself, Carolina had to pick up pieces on her own. I think maybe he was afraid he'd ruin her life too, so he wound up just pushing her away. It's why she and I never could get along." There was too much emotional conflict between them and she'd taken up too much of the Director's time.

"Yeah, I was what set things off and got them fucked up. They used me to help fracture the Alpha. I should have been gone a long time before I left."
