[ Yeah. He gets it. He's still not sure if he understands, still isn't quite sure what it is that she sees in him--
(aside from the good looks. rapier wit. winning personality.)

Things'll settle, he tells himself. Or they'll settle as well as they can in a galaxy at war. He just needs to see this shit through for once. He wants to run from this weird coil of messy emotions that got knotted up while he was back on the Eclector, ignore it till it fades away, but-- that's not an option, not anymore. Not when people are looking to him to be there, trust him to stick around.
Stay. Wait. See it through. Kasumi did that for him, right? He can do that for her.
At this point the meteor shower seems to be ending; the meteors are appearing less and less frequently. Peter takes a deep breath. ]
