TM 183- Tell Me A Secret

[personanongaeta]

Tell a secret? I don't have any secrets- the entirety of the Fleet knows my sins, and few of them know about my absolution. Is it a secret that I didn't care if I lived or died, on my knees in the launch tube? That I was going to die, and at the hands of people I trusted, respected, fought with, fought FOR? Is it a secret that the Colonel is a

You're not the only one who didn't pull the trigger, Lieutenant.

While we were in the temple on the algae planet... I had the chance to end it. But something in me told me that if I just summarily executed him because I hated him, I'd be no better than any Cylon.

You're better than that, Felix. We all are. Most of the time, anyway.

Thank you, Chief.

I've been trying to NOT use Cylon as a negative comparison. Sharon...Lt. Agathon might be offended. Not all Saggitarons smell alike, either. It's not coming easy, but I am trying.

Perhaps "no better than any intern-chasing squirrelly doctor with delusions of grandeur"?

Thank you, Lt. Gaeta. I appreciate that more than you realize.

And... I think Helo appreciates your friendship as well.

OOC: Helo!mun was thinking maybe while he was XO, he bonded with Gaeta, so that's what Sharon is going to assume for now. :)

[personanongaeta]

I hope he appreciates me, since SOMEONE has to keep things running while Colonel Tigh's listening to the walls and humming and Captain Agathon's off being CAG, ECO, or Head of the Quorum of Twelve.

I assume they bonded as well, since
a. Gaeta seems to like all versions of Sharon
b. they sat together at the trial
c. Helo, Dee and Gaeta were always exchanging weighted looks in CIC
d. Gaeta was very glad to see Helo back as XO and Helo then called him by first name.

Plus it works for me if it works for Helo.

Oh, Felix.
