[ Fabian pulls Gorgug out from the waters he was about to walk deep into, the self-doubt, so sure of the course of action, but knowing he's not usually the one to bring it forward. He's not the one to suggest the big ideas. Where's Kristen and Fig when you need someone to suggest big ideas?

But Gorgug fixes on Fabian, and he shuts up at Fabian's (gentle) telling off. He listens to him, contains himself. Listen to what matters the most, possibly, and that--that, Gorgug's thought about too. ]

I don't want anything to happen to the people that we like, [ Gorgug admits. ] But they're part of the reason I want to do this, too. This isn't... I don't trust people will be okay if things stay the way they are. It doesn't feel right.

[ Will they just make things worse, regardless? Is it better to have their situation potentially fuck up now instead of later? There's so many questions, and never any answers.

And that's the real problem. That's why he's feeling so antsy.

He's no less reluctant to make such a call, however. Being the one to take action in a way that will impact everyone, in a way they never asked for. So, Gorgug's slow to speak, to say as reluctantly as he does: ]

...I want to risk it.

[ He wants to know. ]
