Bex tried to pull himself together.

''You are safe here. ''

How had Percy even known? Lucky guess? Bex was short for the other name....but still, it wasn’t the only possibility.

''She cannot get you here. ''

He hadn’t seen her in ten years. Not since he and Trin ran from her and into Hester. Why was it still so easy to remember her?

''You are a sector away. You are in the Cyber Sect. You are on a rescue mission. You are going to find your twin and then you are going to dismember Percy and dump his corpse in a gutter. ''

That way of thinking usually made him feel better, but the side of his face was throbbing with phantom pain. His fingers went to the scars there—he’d kept them hidden for so long that he’d almost forgotten about them. Not even Trin had ever seen them.

“Too quiet,” he mumbled, mostly to himself.

Spencer looked to Kanon and nodded towards Bex. Talk to him. Xe mouthed. ''He’ll listen to you more than me right now. ''

///she can ask him about it if she wants

“Don’t give me that look,” Percy steps as far away from Runa as he can. “She, He, it, whatever, deserves it.”
