     So, I've seen how these sorts of questions go over around here.  I know I'm opening myself up to a lot of troll answers, and angry defensiveness, and cagey suspicion, and this is me saying I'm okay with whatever comes my way.  Bring it on.  Because at least one of you is going to give me a straight answer, and I guess...

     [Slevin is sitting in his room talking to the communicator, toying with something in his hands.  It flashes gold just at the edge of the view screen when he hesitates to look down at it, takes a breath, continues anyway:]

     I guess that's what I need.  Just one.  So: what was the worst thing you ever lost?

     And how did you decide to handle it?  


     [ Private : Chris D'Amico ]

     You were right.  I'm an asshole, but I can at least admit when I made a mistake.

No. Well, maybe a little, but it's all some people have.

Besides, I'm not passing judgment.

[Slevin isn't the spy that some other people aboard are, but he's been paying attention to Bucky, too, waiting to see if that professional rivalry will pick back up, if he missed something important, but there's been no indication of it. That doesn't mean he'll stop watching any time soon. It just means he's not going to be more proactive about anything.]

[Hey just saying, if you ever want to compete with someone, you could do worse than Bucky.]

Then yeah, I died. Came here to try and fix it.

Problem is, I'm not sure it -

Counts, obviously. But not... There's not much you can do about that. Without this place, and not everyone gets this chance.

Hey, you didn't specify you couldn't say making a deal with the Admiral.
