You've reached Poe Dameron. I'm off flying something or trying not to get killed, so go ahead and leave a message and I'll get back to you eventually.

War.

Yeah. I do. Two days after the Starkiller was destroyed. After the Starkiller destroyed five planets and the entire Republic fleet. The war is only started.

Pilots don't have a particularly long life expectancy anyway, but - with the state of things - I'm going to be lucky if I last another year. If it means taking the First Order down - I'm happy to go down too.

That's... fuck.
I know this is hypocritical, because I'm a soldier, I get it. When I go home - I mean, I should have died a long, long time ago. I'm way past my expectancy date.
But -

I don't want that for you.
It sounds like you're dedicated, and that's great, but I don't want that for you.
I wish I could save you.

[He switches to video, mostly so that he can smile and reassure Odin that he's not that worried about it. Because he genuinely isn't.]

Hey. Look, if everything goes according to plan, I survive, save everyone, and the First Order goes down in flames. So don't worry too much about it. It doesn't make any difference here, right?

[ odin, meanwhile: a snotty mess in gross gross tears. it's kinda a wonder how he could even type like this. or have a huge boner about ~10 seconds ago. ]

I-I don't want any of my friends to die or forget me, though!!!!

[flightforfreedom]

[Oh god, what has he done.]

Hey! Hey, bud, it's okay. Everyone's alright. Of course you don't want anyone to die or forget you. But even if they did, they'd still be with you, alright?

[shadowglitter]

I d--

[ oh, that actually hits him pretty hard. Hard enough to stop him crying, at least, which is good, because he was gonna bawl for a long time, if left to his own devices. ]

Man, that's how I deal with my parents being killed. "They're still a part of me". [ he hesitates. ] Still don't wanna lose you, though. You're my bro.

[flightforfreedom]

You're my bro too, Odin. [And he smiles, fondly, and tries not to think about how Odin looked at him the other day.]

And you're not going to lose me as long as I can help it, alright?

[shadowglitter]

Okay...

[ he sniffles, wipes his eyes on the heels of his palm. bleh, he feels stupid. ]

Same here. Obviously. [ he hesitates. ] Sorry. I dunno what I'm doing. I shoulda just kept talking about my boner instead of getting all feels-y on you.

[ appropriate. ]

[flightforfreedom]

[He smiles ruefully at him.]

I mean, you're welcome to, but I am pretty sure I have here in text "LATER, POE" so.

[shadowglitter]

[ odin gasps. that's right. ]

'Cause of the phone sex? The phone sex we're gonna have later? Is that what you're referencing? The phone sex. I remember. [ he thinks for a second, already feeling better. ] That's gonna be pretty good. Neither of us can get ported before that happens. Okay? Promise me.

We can probably leave this here???

[flightforfreedom]

[He laughs.]

Promise.
