She leaned in and hugged Harlow back. "Okay, I'll try. . ."

She walked with her back to the bunks, then headed for the control room. She knocked on the door twice before pushing it open and walking in.

Theo was sitting in one of the chairs, watching a screen. He barely heard the door open as he watched the screen intently.

“Hey, Theo,” Harlow said, sitting down in a chair next to him. “Theo. Theo. Theo.”

"Huh, what?" Theo said, startled. He smiled when he recognized her. "Oh, hey Harlow."

“Hi, glad to see you noticed me,” she said briskly. “So I’m here to talk about a kind of important thing - back off of Rylan. It’s kind of freaking her out, and Santiago isn’t exactly happy either.”

Theo raised a brow at Harlow's tone. "What am I doing? And what does Santiago have to do with her?"

“Don’t give me that spiel - you’re kind of obvious, and I know you were in the room when they kissed.”

He frowned, knowing that Harlow was right. "Fine, I was. I don't know why. . . I just like her." He sighed, leaning back against the chair. "I'll stop, I promise."

“Great. Also, you wouldn’t happen to have information coming from the Republic’s prison…?” She said, tone changing to much friendlier.

"We don't have much so far." He replied.

“Okay,” she said. “Night.”

(Sorry I was gone for the weekend!)

Santiago shifted and layed back down, he rubbed his hands over his face and exhaled softly.

( That's fine, I wasn't on for a while )

Rylan walked back into the room and sat on the edge of her bed, unsure of what to do. She already knew that she probably wouldn't be able to fall asleep. She rubbed her eyes tiredly and turned to face Santiago.

Santiago heated a bit of movement and sat up. He gmlanced around the room and noticed that Rylan was looking at him, and he gave her a tired smile.

A little later, Harlow walked back in.

Santiago noticed Harlow return and looked at her, arching his brow in question.

“Well, Theo won’t be bothering you two anymore,” she said, sitting down.

She sighed softly in relief. "Do you think your conversation with him will affect how much he'll help us?"

Santiago shrugged his good shoulder. “If he’s a good person, he won’t make it obvious that it affected him.”

“Don’t think do,” she said. “Besides, he’s not at the top of the hierarchy. We can get othernhelp.”

She nodded, and looked down at her prosthetic leg. "Okay. . . sounds good."

“But seriously, we should all be sleeping by this point.”

“I may just stay up and busy myself with.. something. Can’t get comfortable with this sling,” Santiago said softly, swinging his legs out of bed.

"Metal legs aren't exactly fun to sleep with either." She sighed, leaning back against the bed post.

“You guys need rest,” she frowned.

“I agree, but it’s just hard to at the moment,” Santiago responded.

“Take a pill or something,” she said.

“Do you think they’d have any?” Santiago questioned.

“Maybe,” she said, looking around. “You guys can’t be the only ones who can’t sleep.”
