The Shodan incident had left more than a foul memory, in fact, it was so bad that the details were hazy.
But he knew he'd gone rogue, and he knew that he caused a lot of damage... and hurt people he cared about. There was no excuse, this was were he belonged. That however didn't make it any more depressing. He'd missed the new crew members, and he would miss much of the going ons but Splicer was used to being alone...
He had his team back after all, even if they were back at home. For now, he'd simply sit there, slumped against the cell wall and think of the thing's he'd done.
Man... this is the shit that the other Spectres got killed for... way to lose it cowboy...

Instead, she slept on the other side of the bars, out on a bench somewhere. It didn't look comfortable, but she needed to be here.
His eyes drifted over her form and he sighed. He'd be lying if he said he wasn't enjoying having company... But it just didn't feel right.
"Hey beautiful... you awake?"
She was nowhere to be seen, but his mental chastising did receive a reply.
"Oh, I'm sure that's the case, but let's be glad for small (actually gigantic) miracles; (as in) think of the magnitude of damage that would have been caused had you gone into a psychotic rage and still possessed your psionic abilities. It's not as bad (but still fairly terrible...oops, I'm not helping, am I?) by comparison."
"I'm fairly certain I don' wana think 'bout how bad it'd been if I kept 'em..."
He paused for a moment, a sense of disgust in the pit of his stomach.
"Apologies f' I don't recall... head's still hazy but... I... didn't hurt you none did I?"
"Hey. How're you doing?"
You'll have to forgive him if he tries not to look up seeing as he feels he doesn't deserve the presence.
"Eh, I'm sure this is five star treatment compared to what I woulda gotten back home for this whole shitstorm... So I'm alright... How about you?"
"Glad to see you're still alive and kickin'." she said, after a long moment of just looking though the bars.
"Somewhat... though for a moment I thought it woulda been better if I hadn't. Stupid thoughts yanno?" He gave a weak chuckle.
She crossed her arms over her chest and looked at him.
"It's gonna be Winter Shoreleave... they called for everyone to head down planetside. Want anything?"
"I trust you're more stable."
Hello security man, he's hoping you're just like the guards in Korhal and came to beat a man down when he's already grounded. At least someone kicking him around would make him feel better.
"I'm interested to learn the details of what happened." He could just read the report, but he preferred to do his own work, when he could.
She was briefed on what happened, of course. Her pilots didn't sneeze on this ship without her knowing about it.
He smiled weakly before looking towards her.
"Hey hey now, it's my first offense on board this ship! Granted, that's only because I haven't been here long. Though I do question your choice of pilots considerin' ya got me."
Sure it was an attempt to mask how shitty he felt about himself and that whole incident. But still... he was trying.
