So he just hums a note of acquiescence, no false promises, or anything like that, but he sifts his fingers through her hair, because it's a memory for him too. Before everything went wrong, before it was turned sideways by everyone else. Vi. The enforcer. The firelights. Marcus. The Chembarons.
They were all trying to take it away from him. They'd succeeded in their own way, they'd driven a wedge between them. He wanted to remove it, fast as he could, before Vander tried to drive it in deeper with all of his might. He could. He knew it. He didn't know Jinx like Silco did, though. He didn't know his daughter, or what she needed to function. Only he did.
