[That earned a little smirky smile out of him.] Good, I wouldn't want it any other way. You're all I have left, Jack. I will stick with you for as long as we're in this place. [And beyond really. He liked to think they would keep some of their memories of the possibilities they had explored.] True. Good luck with that.

[He made a noise in his throat of agreement.] We have better strategies for keeping the nightmares at bay these days.

[After all, he didn't sleep if Jack wasn't there with him. There was no point in even attempting if his lover wasn't nearby all warm and solid in wherever they were resting. He liked to think that he provided his own kind of service to Jack when they were cuddling in the hammock or on the mattress, never too far from one another and chasing away some of the worst dreams.]

You were the one that continually hunted me across our world and even this one. If you weren't so busy getting yourself into trouble early on, it would have been a good chase here.

[But he had been in Deerington, and Jack had formed connections early. It wouldn't have worked out long term without an entire planet to have a game of cat and mouse.]

No, we don't. That's why I get in the big dramatic scenes when I can. You deserve the spotlight.
