//TW for anyone else who reads this. There will most likely be mentions of some heavy topics in this thread.

It was Sunday, around 1 in the afternoon. They didn't have any missions to go on today. However, the overwatch members had just arrived back at the base from going to a funeral for some of their fallen comrades from the previous mission. Jesse seemed unusually quiet when they got back. Gabriel had a sober expression on his face. He was no stranger to these funerals. It was always hard losing their members, but sadly that was the price to pay for this war.

Once back, Gabriel stopped, looking Jesse over. The other hadn't been here that long, yet he had already seen many of their comrades fall in battle. Jesse had yet to harden up to these sights. He watched as Jesse moved away from the group and head to his room. Gabe sighed and moved off to go check on Jack.

He stopped once he spotted the other male. "How are you holding up?" Gabriel asked.

Gabriel looked him over. "You were at the funeral today. I just wanted to make sure you were holding up alright." He said.

He nodded. "Alright." He murmured, offering a soft smile. He then sighed. He was about to say something when he spotted Jesse walking down the hall. "Hey, kid?" Gabe asked gently. Jesse stopped. He glanced back at him.

"Yes sir?" Jesse asked. Gabriel blinked.

"You doing okay? You're pretty quiet today." He said. Jesse blinked, looking away.

"I'm fine." Jesse said.

Jesse glanced at Jack's hand before looking up at them. Gabriel nodded. "It's hard Jesse. But, we're here for you as well." He said.

Jesse frowned. "Why? I ain't dead yet." Jesse said, eyeing them.
