Who: Clark, Ivan, & Gregor
When: Aftermath of the event
Where: Nomo Deck #009
What: Clark goes to deliver some unwelcome news.
Warnings: character death mention...?

It's not long after he finally gets back to the Moira that Clark goes looking for Ivan and Gregor. He's still in his uniform, streaked with dirt and blood that isn't his own. He should change, maybe, but it seems too dishonest to pretend to be anything other than what he is in the wake of everything that's happened.

A whole planet is gone. Miles is dead. Superman wasn't enough to stop any of that, and he should have been.

He goes to the room Miles shares with his family and knocks on the door. It's likely that they know already, with Miles nowhere to be found on the ship, but Miles is the kind of person who seems like he could think his way out of anything. If he hadn't seen it for himself, maybe he would hold out hope too, but as things stand...

"Ivan? Greg? It's Clark, we need to talk."

Good old Gregor. Always ready to be in charge when he needs to be, but even then Ivan feels -- selfish? For doing this for him. He knows that's what it is, at least in some way. So Ivan decides to hell with that, and pushes himself up into a sitting position so he can wrap one arm around Gregor in the best version of a hug he possibly can at the moment. God knows he needs it, and maybe Gregor needs it, too. At least the offer of it -- that's the best thing, okay, that's the only thing he can do at the moment. Or ever, since it's his cousins that do all the thinking in the family. But it's something.

"Alright," he says into Gregor's shoulder, eyes stinging even as he presses them shut. "Alright."
