[GABRIEL]

Shit, Bast had given him the position for a reason- maybe Gabe didn't know him too well, but if he'd managed to keep The Ascendants afloat for as long as he had, he wasn't completely stupid. The only kind of qualm he had about the situation was that he'd always pegged the kid for a healer. A command track of more than clerical duties wasn't something he could've foreseen, but it wasn't like anyone else would've recognized capability in Gabe when he was younger. Moon was young still, had time to grow, and a leadership position could give maturity a boost- in which direction, he couldn't say. For himself, it'd started to go one way, then turned around completely as soon as he started burning out. If there was one thing he could do, it was keep an eye on the kid, make certain he wouldn't start waning like Gabe did. A tall order, but...he thought he could manage.

Just as soon as this goddamn headache gave him some peace.

"Give yourself a bit more credit than that, Twigs." The hybrid somehow spoke without wincing, his own voice grating and harsh on the steady throb keeping time with his heartbeat. "In a week you'll be bossing everyone around like you were born into it."
