Muse is excited about newcomers to the city. Is NOT excited about a hiatus.

Dude, wait. What? A two week hiatus? Even if it isn't happening until more like the start of November, that's still so close! Plus so much can happen in two weeks! All these cool new people arriving and you need to call a hiatus right after they get to Nautilus? Seriously?

Man. It figures you wouldn't give me the break I've been wanting until I don't actually want it. Not like it's news, but wow, mun. You really are horrible.

..Just...


augh.



He's the best thing that ever happened to me. I know you're his brother and everything and you won't but...


I don't know what I'm saying. Sorry.

[There's a lot of things Rex could say to that, many of which aren't really all that nice. But what's the point? The only thing that matters is making sure the Caesar they know doesn't become the Caesar of the present in Rex's timeline. ...who in some ways could be what Dib might become if his behavior doesn't shift accordingly.]

He's the only blood related family I've got left. The only one alive who remembers what my whole childhood was like...and what Rafael and Violetta Salazar were like as parents, not just as scientists.

[He sighs.]

But...he's not just my brother. That's not all of who he is... He's made his own choices to be other things, too.

And as long as what he's doing isn't dangerous, it's not my place to tell him what he can or can't be.

[Rex shifts his gaze toward Dib.]






...I'll bring him back to you.

Thank you.
