So. This is it then. We're here, on the Starbase. Quarantine's almost over. I've never been good with goodbyes. They're...difficult for me. Maybe because I feel like so much has changed here. So much. I have changed on this ship. I have made some of the best friends ever here. Ash...is such a laugh. And we have had our moments, awkward and not so awkward. And then there's...

Kohl.

I hate leaving like this. But it is for the best. Something has changed and I do not like the qualities I take on when I am with him. They're...slightly wrong. My emotions aren't healthy around him. I wrote him a note. Just to say goodbye, wishing him the best, saying I will miss him...but I know he will be fine. Truth is, he will be better without me.

And Ash? I know she will be upset. But I have left my next ship's name for her and we will keep in touch. I really love her as my friend, she is...a good spirit. Better than most but she doesn't realise it. She will get through any storm and still be standing, defiant with a smile. I love that about humans, for all the wrong things about them, they have a spirit that no one else has. They're...

Defiant. Weak. So strong inside.

Anyway. I digress. So this is my last personal log here on the Galileo. I did a proper handover to my replacement, no paperwork will fall between the cracks and I know that Holliday will most likely not even notice. Which is exactly what I want. No fuss. And a perfect record left behind.

Okay. This is Victarion Jaqen..logging off.
