She smiled a little. "You know theres never a break here." Ever. "Every time I sit down I have to get back up." !Rose just shook her head. "I don't have time to relax."

Kane looked to her. Holding her hand tightly. "You've denied it ever since Kat left this plain... it's time, Rose. She wouldn't want you this way... she'd want you there supporting their and our Hawk and Nick. Mina could watch the base for a night... I'll keep an eye on things for you. If someone gets out of line out there... the gloves come off."

"I can't, !Kane. I can't... I can't lose anymore people. I just can't. What happens if I leave and something happens and Mina loses more than an arm this time? Or Hayley gets sick? What if something goes horribly wrong and I'm not here to handle it? I can't leave. I'll send everyone out there. But I cannot leave."

Kane moved in front of her and halted her walk... he looked at her with kindness, but also a hint of sternness as he put his hands to her shoulders. "I know it's easy to expect the worst when it's all the world tends to offer you... but this isn't Forks... it doesn't rain every day. This is more then just your battle, Rose. I know what you've lost... but you can't expect to lose more every day. That's no way to live, Rose. Live for life... not death. I've seen their clocks... 'cept for a few everything is running true to time... give yourself an hour or two... go forth and be happy. Stop resisting your chances to be comfortable." He frowned a little. "I stand by my comments... I will watch this base... I want you to be well. I want you to be happy again."

!Rose liked to avoid these conversations. But she was trapped right now. !Kane had stepped in front of her. She shifted and wouldnt meet his gaze. She didn't want to hear any of this right now. But she was going to have to. !Rose glanced up at him and bit her lower lip as it started to quiver. She hadn't cried since Kat and AFR died. She wasn't going to start now. She continued to shift and squirm. "I can't go."

Kane nodded his head... he pulled her into a small hug. "Again... I understand why... as much as I wish I could have swayed you... sorrow is a harsh mistress... she won't take no for an answer." He let her loose once again. "I will still stand guard tomorrow. You could probably use the extra hands. Since the others will be occupied if what you say could come to fruition it could be difficult to stage a defense. "

!Rose sniffled and hugged him back. After AFR had died, she had gotten very close with !Kane. It wasn't the same, but he had helped a lot. She hugged him back tightly and then shifted back when he let her loose. "Alright."

!Kane smiled. He graced the glove over her cheek. "Think happy thoughts... it may not help you fly, but it will take the edge off. You are a loving person... a smile is the easiest way to let that shine through."

"I'm not the same person anymore !Kane. Even I know that." She tried to smile.

Kane tried to get it out... "We know you couldn't be... but look at what you have done... most of the younger ones all love you like a second mother. You give them the hope they need when they need it. You can not deny the good you do and lay in bed with just the bad. Being different is just different... not a death sentence. You do it because you love them... many people in this plain forgot how to and despite all of your losses you still have it in your blood. That takes more then most have... in the end you are more then most."
