[ Poe laughs, a startled, painful sound.

"So you were never scared?"

He forces himself to look away from father and son and at Finn's face, so out of place in this context. He can't keep the hunted look out of his eyes. ]
If you've got any suggestions, I'm happy to listen.

[ "What're you afraid of now?"

It's too late, it's too late to matter. Poe's heart is breaking for his father all over again, the same way it does every time he remembers, but in the moment it's so much worse. He wants to apologize to the specter of Kes Dameron. He wants to say he's sorry he couldn't do more sooner, that he couldn't get the New Republic to do anything no matter how hard he tried and how far outside the strictures of the military he went to do it.

"That it was all for nothing."

The sounds of the jungle, Kes going back to work on the fence. Poe, small and curly-haired and somber and not quite sure yet what his father meant.

You'll figure it out, Poe doesn't say. Sooner or later, you'll get it.

Yavin 4 starts to dissolve. ]
