Ryder felt terrible, and it wasn’t only because of the headache pounding at his temples and cotton feeling in his mouth. He didn’t mean to summon Robin to come to his rescue, it was just a force of habit to lean on his twin when things got too overwhelming for them. Kryss was with them the whole time, so there was no reason for Robin to risk his reputation unless he just really wanted a night out, which Ryder thought he deserved.Â
They felt the pressure to live up to their mother’s, and now Daphne’s, expectations daily, but they also recognized most of the attention was off of them now that they were a medic. Robin had a much more important position than him as the First Mate. It wasn’t often someone as young as them received such a high ranking, and he knew his twin must be trying his hardest to not to disappoint anyone. Ryder wouldn’t ever want to ruin that for him.
When he returned to the ship with a tray-full of coffees labeled “Ronald,” he tracked down Robin and handed over his coffee and muffin with a weak, apologetic smile. “I’m really sorry about last night and whatever happened in the Uber. You really didn’t need to come after me like that. I’ll tell Captain Daphne it was my fault.”
