"Well, I'm not usually much for admitting it myself, so I can understand that," Galen says, smiling a little at the thought. Mostly, he thinks, it's habit, the way things were on warships. Showing it would be one thing — he'd have done anything for his crew, and he suspects they all knew that — but giving voice to it would have been another, and largely unnecessary. Here, the number of people he even gives a damn about is incredibly small, but other than Kara and Lee, there's no one so much as Demelza. He doesn't know Ross as well as he knows her, but he likes him, too, respects him, even. "But anything I've answered, I've been glad to."
