TO HAVE AND TO HOLD [modplot]

Who| Anyone who wants in
What| "To Have and to Hold" plot
Where| The planet Olum, Matihara Temple
When| Set vaguely the same time as "Gods Among Us" and "Other Mother"
Warnings/Notes| N/A

The planet Olum is a genuinely welcoming place. While the clothes they have to wear for the rituals are a bit...odd (provided they don't opt for coverups), they are comfortable, especially with such a balmy climate. Despite the Olumites allowing outsiders into their ceremonies, there's a distinct lack of tourist-ey elements; no gift shops, no merchants selling anything, just a spirit of genuine unity and celebration. The Olumite marriage guides seem to genuinely care about helping people with their relationships, and seem happy to share their cultural traditions with other species.

As far as missions go, it's definitely a nice vacation from the usual life or death struggles.

It means the Legionnaires have no distractions. They have to settle in and try to navigate this while faking sincerity as best as they can.

...Oh.

In hindsight, given what the Chief knows about Freelancer? That makes sense. But it's still a jarring little realization. It's a part of team communication he's taken for granted for so long...

It's a little sad, really. The things that were done to Wash and his team were monstrous, there's no denying that, but this just adds one more tiny note of sadness to the Chief's understanding of that reality.

He glances over at Wash.

"Well," he says, mild mannered as ever. "Now you have one."

It's not important. But somehow sharing this, even though he didn't realize it would become sharing, feels good.

It's not something Wash ever really realized was missing, to be honest. He'd get the occasional HUD text from Maine that was nothing but :), but that was just what Maine did, as he'd never been one for words. To have one standardized gesture for everyone in the unit...

Huh.

He looks up at Chief and makes the gesture across his face again, much more clearly curved this time. "Guess so."
