Chance didn't have a cohesive answer for that. He just felt like Gabe was mad because- because Chance was a screw up. And obviously he couldn't even do the simplest thing right and Hemlock wasn't even answering him so he must have done something to upset the dragon and if he managed to do that it wasn't unlikely that he would upset this Pilot he just met too.
"You are really nice..." He sniffled. "Are you and Lufti friends?" Chance didn't have human friends. Just his plant friends and Hemlock. This was his first time out of the Citadel but truth was it was also his first time out of his apartment without being collected for inquisition or testing- or a check up or something. And all those people just prodded him one way or another, he didn't like it. They scared him. But what could he do about that?
All those Pilots though... All those doctors... They knew about him and Lufti being different people in the same body... Or at least they did now. Gabriel... Didn't or he seemed not to get it right? That was the problem?
Chance realized he was calming down a bit at least, holding Gabe's hand seemed to help that and shutting out everything else around him. He was processing things better now and actually thinking instead of getting overwhelmed and just crying or panicking.
Gabriel wasn't mad at him. Hemlock probably wasn't either. Still he had a thought cross his mind that hadn't in a long time. "I wish Lufti was here." He muttered softly, still holding Gabe's hand.
