Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I mean, how can someone not be jealous when someone else's attention is focused on someone who didn't care about them. Yes, you had feelings for him and that's all right to have but, even you have to admit it seemed one sided. From what I understand he wanted your starseed and nothing more. If he really was your friend, wouldn't he have tried to tell you he was leaving? A letter? Something?"

Though, Caledonite supposed he had to give her some credit. He had been...is in? A very similar situation. He wondered where Eden was. If she was alright. If she was happy with her choice. He missed her. They all did.

"I don't remember any of my crushes prior to this life. I suppose I wouldn't know in that regard." Caledonite rolled his eyes. "It's not my word you couldn't just take my word on it. Though again. It was different for Maria. Unlike Galaxite and I, she chose what she wanted." His choice, had been made for him. Just as he chose for Galaxite. "There's a difference I believe.. on whether or not people chose to accept the chaos or have it thrust upon them. But, to be honest, it's not a topic I plan on studying any time soon." He huffed when she wrapped his arm around her. All bark, no bite. "Troublesome girl. You're going to get hurt someday."

He would not be happy when that day came.

Cale chuckled slightly. "It will not be a good day for whoever puts there hands on you." That was for sure. "Take the time you need. Be it today, tomorrow, days. You know how to find me." He nodded slowly. "I told you, I was there for both of them, I would be there for you if you wanted it."

He sat up, looking down at her. "What makes you think they won't like you? You've already met Marialite. The only one you haven't is Galaxite." That was an easy fix though. "I mean, you might have to fight them for the spot.. Honestly you all need to learn how to share. I'm only one person but... I do not see why either of them would have a reason to not like you. I'm sure Maria will be delighted when she finds out." The Captain just looked at her. "Do... you want to meet them? It wouldn't be hard to arrange if you did. I don't think they'd mind at all."

"They will love you, just as I do. You have nothing to fear." He chuckled softly. "I can see if he'd like to come sometime." Cale could have probably called for either of them via the communicator but... He figured Dinara had had enough excitement for one day.

"You know... an easy fix for that is one on either side, someone in the middle." Oh. The flush was too cute. It fit her to a tee. "It is not just a work relationship. We are all dating each other, yes. A polycule? I believe the term is." One of them had tried to explain the terms to Cale but... He was bad at remembering things like that. "I don't see why you wouldn't fit. I'm sure Maria would love to have another girl around the house." Living with two guys had to have its drawbacks at times.

"To some degree, yes. Again, you're talking about someone who still very clearly has your attention. He's left you behind but you...still hold on to some sort of hope that he might show back up. It is...admirable." A bit. Granted, there was nothing wrong with wanting an old friend come back but... "I don't know. Maybe I want all of your attention right now, and to not have to share it with some memory." He wouldn't mind sharing with Marialite, or Galaxite, of course. Caledonite laughed. "Do you just, instantly develop a crush on any pretty face you come across? What about Maria? Do you have a crush on her too?" He teased.

"What makes you think that you're boring. There is nothing wrong with boring. Not that you are. Besides... Just because you find something boring, doesn't mean others do. I don't find you boring. Very clearly Maria and Kanan didn't." Even if he was convinced Kanan was only in it for the starseed.

"I have not disappeared." He said, crowding into the space between them. "And I'm dating Maria, so technically, you could argue she hasn't disappeared either. You just found ties back to her in a way you didn't expect."

He nodded. "Pretty much yeah. Or you could... find someone else if truly wanted?" If she didn't want them, him, that was always an option too, he supposed. "I don't think it is stupid to ask. You're just looking for someplace to belong. It makes sense to me."

Caledonite unwrapped his arms from around her only to reach up and pull her hands from her face. "Dinara, it will be fine. I will not let either of them hurt you. Please relax and try not to over stress it."

"Hmm.. I suppose it is easy to stress. You're right. But... wouldn't it be easier to remove the source of the stress? Or... at the very least, find some way to ease it? I can't really help you with any Order stress... I feel as if my presence would just create more for you... But as far as Maria and Gala... I promise you, you have nothing to worry about with them. I won't leave you alone with them, if you don't want me to." She would have nothing to fear from them as long as he was around.

Caledonite made a soft noise. "This... hobby, as you put it so well, doesn't exactly give us the choice on if we want to take it up in the first place, now does it? But... I think it's our choice what we do with it afterwards. People can tell you what to do, and in some cases, try and make the choice for you. But ultimately, you decide what you want to do. You were handed a great deal regardless of whether or not you want anything to do with it." The Captain took her hands and gave them a gentle squeeze. "Don't let others tell you who you are. What you are. You make that choice.. Other people, myself, we can all tell you things that you want to hear. But its your choice Dear. Sometimes its hard to find yourself, but it's worth it in the end. Cause in your heart is where it all begins. You've gotta be bold. You've gotta be brave. You've gotta be free. Gotta get loud. Only you can make that change. You've just gotta believe. I believe, Dinara. In you. No matter what side you take."

He let go with little resistance when she pulled away. "You tell me when and where, I'll be there."
