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.
no subject
you couldn't have known he would've confessed when he did
i'm sorry but i still don't think you're a monster
everyone makes mistakes
especially when they know having to do something that has to be done will hurt someone
do you really think this would've gone down any better whenever you got the signs?
no subject
[There's silence for a bit because even he can hear how ridiculous he is starting to sound, so he sighs to clear his head.]
if i'd said something at the start.
if i'd stuck to my rule of one-night-stands only?
yeah.
probably.
[Sorry for the tmi archie...]
no subject
i'm not gonna start saying you're awful for something you did months ago
it's done. it's happened.
figure out how to move forward from here.
no subject
[Poe just sighs and rubs his hands over his face for a long moment. Archie was right. But a large part of him just wanted someone to yell at him, satisfy his need for punishment and discipline. If he was back in the fleet, none of this would have happened. And not just because there was a war to fight.]
sorry, archie.
i'll figure it out. if he doesn't hate me. if he does, i'll just - try to figure out how to make it better without actually - being a part of it.
he deserves a lot better than this, archie. no one else seems to get it. he's a good man. one of the best. and people keep dismissing him and he deserves to be happy.
no subject
but you also didn't deserve to be put in that position
you're both idiots
its just important how you move on from this doesn't end up with you hurting each other more
no subject
i tried to cut the feed
[But he sighs and rubs his face again.]
yeah. no, you're right.
advice?
no subject
so give it a couple days, even if it means you're both stewing
you're on a space station so you won't be able to avoid each other and you might need to work together in a crisis
and i'm sure you can do that fine with your experience but frankly i don't trust odin to not do something stupid as shit
do you know what you would say to him if he wanted to talk again?
i'm not about to tell you or anything. i'm just interested.
no subject
Kay sent me some books to read so - yeah. Going to try to give him as much space as I can. But don't worry, Archie. He's smarter than you think. And I'm not about to let anything happen to him.
...... I don't know, to be honest. I'd be pretty - damn relieved- but I don't want to say or do something that--
it's just not simple. And I don't know if I have it in me to do anything that would make Odin look at me like that again.
no subject
yeah. i get that it's not a case of just saying the right thing and everything'll be good again.
i guess this all depends on how odin reacts over the coming days
no subject
yeah
worst comes to worst, I make up an emergency and go home and stop ruining space for him
no subject
but wait and see what happens
text me if you need a chat. don't care what time. my sleeping pattern is all over the place right now.
no subject
thanks, archie
you're a good friend
just - make sure he's okay? i mean i know he's not okay but make sure he's not- i don't know. sorry. yeah. thanks.
no subject
i'll talk to him
stay safe up there
no subject
thanks
gonna try to get some shut eye. see you later, arch
