[This ship earns so little fucking trust from them, honestly.]
I haven't either. They were incredible when I first saw them. Lucien didn't trust them either, but I managed to convince him to get in. It really did fix his injuries.
[Hmm. He smiles lopsidedly.]
I remember the schematics of what I saw when I was snooping. I could draw a little of it for you if you don't find them anywhere.
[SOMETIMES EVERYTHING IS MEMORIES AND FLESH AND RATS... but he smiles.]
Sure, I'll take some sketches if you have the time. [It's like working together in the lab again... how nostalgic!! He's quiet for a minute, actually, contemplative.] You weren't gone that long at all, but it still feels a little strange. So much has changed so quickly.
[STOP. HE KNOWS YOU!!! YOU FED YOURSELF TO THE FLESH WALL
Luke reaches out, gently patting his shoulder.]
It's okay. We were all really happy for you. You deserved it.
[He can't say that he wouldn't have chosen someone else if it had been in his hands, given the others that joined them--Sheba, Shouxue, Sidon, and so on--but out of their little nerd quintet, at least, Luke definitely feels that Viktor probably deserved it most of all.]

As long as the ship doesn't go upside down tomorrow, I'll work on some. You have a whole lot of other things to look at, too.
[Like working together in the lab again!]
It does feel like it's been an age. I didn't realize, um... how fond I was of all of your company until it was gone.
[He seems a bit embarrassed to admit this so boldly, but shut up.]

He grins, though.]
I'd say we missed you too, but I think we made it pretty obvious. [THEIR INSTANT HER-MES HARASSMENT]

He also went to engineering.........]
Hah. You did. I felt a bit homesick, as strange as that sounds for that kind of place. I'm sorry I didn't have any chance to say goodbye.
