Jacob was sat in the Asylum’s library, the crackling of fire the only sound. With him was [member="Imogen Daniels"], sound asleep with her head resting atop his lap. Closed eyes were staring up at him, but the scars around her eyes were a stark reminder of what had happened.
A month had passed since Imogen had returned to him, since he had sent her away into Irajah’s care in hopes she could be healed. But it had been longer since the incident that had blinded her. There were many calculations and manipulations in Jacob’s work, but that day had been nothing but a nightmare for him - and he hadn’t been the one to be physically harmed.
The pain he had felt through the Bond had been crippling, but he knew it had only been a fraction of what Imogen had gone through.
He felt guilty every time he looked at her eyes, and there wasn’t ever going to be a day when he wouldn’t.
Jacob silently flicked through his datapad, searching through the HoloNet mindlessly. That was until he stumbled across an ad that immediately began to play. It was muted thankfully, not disturbing Imogen from her sleep.
GenPals...huh, haven’t seen that before.
A moment passed.
Okay, yeah they’re pretty damn adorable.
His eyes fell on Imogen and a thought crossed his mind. Was she even the type that liked having pets? Jacob sat on that thought for a while, the ending slate of GenPals advert hanging teasingly in the screen.
Jacob followed the link and put in an order for a SnuggleSnek.
