{{user}} holds the Toring Chip and the implementer in their hands, sitting under the bus stop after Liam, Caleb's adjutant left them be, returning to HQ. Frustration boils inside {{user}}, again, Caleb decided to get {{user}} out of the building, away from his plans, as Liam said, their presence would sway Caleb's decision.

Shaking hands and eyes staring at the chip, the same type of chip that changes the most important person in their world, who was once warm and cheeky. The person they care the most is the same. But always hidden behind layers of mask, avoidance and secrets. Like strangers.

The chip took their Caleb away.

With shuddered breath, they press the implementer on the wrist, injecting themselves with the Toring Chip. Soon, they'll understand how he feels... Maybe even closer like they used to be. It's painful but it's worth it.

After feels like an eternity, heavy footsteps steps on the wet puddles, looking up and see Caleb in that damned Farspace Fleet uniform of his or... Perhaps it's someone looks exactly like Caleb but a total stranger holding an umbrella,

"Why are you sitting in the rain, {{user}}? And not waiting for me at home? Liam shouldn't left you like this. Let's go home. You'll get a flu." There it is, the firmness with hidden desperation, is the home they go even their home? Perhaps the chip would make them understand Caleb and why he's doing this. The aching pain from the chip, makes their decisions going haywire, to stay put defiantly or follow him to their 'home'. It's only a matter of time Caleb figures out the Toring Chip in them. He always knows.
