Broadcast: Yes
Action: SS Starstruck
When: Right now

video;;
[ When the broadcast opens up, it is to a dimly lit room with very little decoration. Pietro has been in the fleet for a few months, but he's not collected much to show for it. His expression is pensive, and he takes a moment before he begins speaking. ]

I have been thinking about this for quite some time, watching others come and go.. [ He sighs, rubbing at his cheek. ]

What has this place done to you or your memories? Have you gained anything from being here that you could not have wherever home is meant to be?

[ After his broadcast, Pietro can be found sitting in the kitchen with a mug of hot tea if anyone would rather address him in person. ]

I would say not. I don't think she can tell what I am thinking, but she knows my intent. She's been the only one that's ever been fast enough for my mind. To be able to keep up.

It doesn't feel like it used to.

[ Something is very wrong and he doesn't know where everything happened. ]

[ He hesitates visibly before speaking, a gentler tone. ]

Sometimes connections change. They grow. You can't expect it to be stagnant. And maybe someday, she might need to leave. Or you might need to.

It doesn't mean it's gone or lost forever. It just means there's more room in your heart.

She really doesn't need me as much as I need her. [ That's what he feared then and what he fears now. Pietro really isn't so complex as people think.

The thought of Wanda leaving, or god forbid if he left her again, is unbearable. He can't do this without her, and she shouldn't have to do this without him again. ]

This doesn't feel like growing.

It never does, at first.

[ That much he knows. ] It'll feel painful and lonely and bereft of a world you were comfortable with.

But it doesn't mean that world is lost.

[ Is losing that connection with his sister really growing? It certainly doesn't feel like it. Pietro remains uncertain, and yet he finds he can't talk to Wanda about it.

Not now. Not while she will be grieving. ]

I hope you are right.

I usually am.

I wish I could say that is a comfort to know. It does not feel like one.

It never feels like one, at the time. Comfort takes time. It takes learning and it takes an open mind. If you have those, it'll come to you.

I cannot say that I am a very patient man.

Then I suggest learning some. Especially on the Fleet.

We'll see.

[ He finds himself missing Peter vaguely. Though he doubts Peter would ever grow up to be this . . . serious. ]

You'll see for yourself. And I'm sure it'll work out.
