“I so miss sharing my energy with you and sharing yours. I miss your energy around me, but I’m so afraid… what if I hurt you like I did in sickbay while I was in this unconscious state.” she sang and her voice was discordant behind the words. They had been through so much already but he had never seen her as vulnerable as in this moment.

He put his feet on the bottom and gathered her into his arms his tail wrapping around her waist. “You did not hurt me Laraan, you sent me the only warning you could. In the instant we merged energy you could have destroyed me in a heart beat but even in your unconscious state a part of you protected me from oblivion whilst warning me to not put myself in danger again. If you can do that whilst unconscious it will be no problem for you to protect me now”. His eyes blazed “Trust yourself, because I trust you, you will not harm me, I know it”.

She couldn’t really answer, overwhelmed by emotions she buried her head in his neck and breathed deep breaths of relief and hapiness. He always knew exactly what to say to make her feel better and she wanted to never let him go. So close to each other she gently released a bit of her iron-clad grip she had kept on her energy flow all this time. She needed to feel his energy around her, more than anything. It felt like her true home to her, the place where she could be just herself and loved for who she was, so she opened to his energy and vice versa carefully, shuddering lightly in delight as she felt him again.

He would feel her energy again too and without her even consciously channeling, he would feel instantly as if he had taken a 5 week vacation tailor-made for his needs.

  • Laraan

He smiled in the semidarkness, “See, still alive, refreshed and thankful for your gift”. He laughed a little, ‘I always feel a little bit like a user when you do that, I don’t feel like I’m giving much in return”.

Laraan looked at him puzzled. “What do you mean love, I’m not channeling.”

  • Laraan

Stark’s eyes went flat as he digested that piece of information but he rallied himself because he didn’t want to frighten her. “Actually my dear, you did… from somewhere…”.

His thoughts returned to the time they had spent on her Mother, ship, mothership, so hard to find the right words for that… “Perhaps this is another permutation of the reintegration process?”

Laraan’s eyes widened. “Oh shoot. But maybe it’s just because of our bond.” she shook her head. “We have to try this out… test me, so to say. I can’t go walking around not knowing what I do to others… or what I can do now. You know I’ve been experimenting with that other channel… dogma be damned!”

her face brigthened up again. “Maybe I can now properly turn back time, like the Helaar did. Wouldn’t that be cool? IF something happened to you, I could just turn back time and warn you… or anybody.” she sang eagerly.

  • Laraan

Stark was startled at the thought and a little unnerved. When he killed someone, he wanted them to stay dead. If people started reversing things it would be problematic. Then he remembered that if the Heelar had not done it in the Mirrorverse he’d be minus a family member right now.

“We live in complicated times” he intoned seriously, “How would you like me to test you?”
