[Brother. He has called many people that, but they have responded with either acceptance or, more commonly, confusion, and even revulsion. He keeps it up nonetheless because provided it does not offend them, it is a part of him, a part of his people. He means to keep it, keep them alive.
To hear someone call him brother in return... it takes his breath away for a moment, as if the past has come flooding back to him, as if his people have, in some small way, returned.
He cannot dwell on such a thing, not when Nike needs help, but the title means more to him than he could possibly express.]
Anything that is important to you, sister, is urgent to me as well. What do you need? Do you prefer to speak on this in person?
