(Tell me, have any of you spoken to Cathaway within the last two months.)

[The newer Hosts are the most likely suspects, but perhaps through the link—

Perhaps he feels nothing not because of distance, but because she's chosen to keep him locked out. The possibility is a nagging itch at the base of his skull; he'd rather know for certain.]

[ —No, then. Not with that answer, he's sure. Still, it's hard to shake the idea that they're from the same galaxy, or that his responses might be prompted from one of the other hosts somehow.

Perhaps Nathaniel's been saying too much, too freely (again).]

( My name is Kylo Ren. Master of the Knights of Ren, and apprentice to Supreme Leader Snoke.

At least, until I was brought here. )

[ Well. Okay.

Peter has officially never heard of this guy, or the 'Knights of Ren' or this 'Snoke' guy. So. Wrong franchise, maybe.

Or maybe there are more movies in the future??? ]

( And now?

You're just a regular schmuck like the rest of us, huh? )

[ Weirdly enough? Peter can kinda relate. ]

[narcissithstic]

( No. ) [It comes with a bitter pang of distaste (offended doesn't even begin to cover the bristling expanse of Ren's bruised ego) narrowing their connection to a sharp, overly fine point.]

( If anything, I've taken a step forward. ) [ -they all have.] ( Cathaway will forgive my transgressions once we've succeeded in bringing this chaos to heel.

I'm certain of it. )

[spideys]

[ Ow. Yeah, there's that rejection of his attempt to find some common ground, making Peter rethink the whole 'relating to this guy' thing.

Clearly he doesn't want to be like anybody else. Which? Is fine, probably. ]

( Yeah? That's uh - that's pretty confident of you. I mean, Cathaway seems pretty cool from the one time we met.

I'm sure she wouldn't hold a grudge, right? She seems like she's got way more important things to do than hold grudges. )
