SF is, in my opinion, the single most dangerous member of the unit. It is my belief that anyone who undertakes his psychological care is putting themselves at grave personal risk. Should he go AWOL, it’s unlikely that he will give authorities any other choice than to terminate.

This is heartbreaking. Sloane’s first tentative interactions with his mate (and being touched) are interspersed with his psychoanalysis records which label him as so dangerous he’ll need to be killed if he tries to have any autonomy or privacy.

“Am I your prisoner, Sloane?”
The zipper’s painfully slow descent slowed to a stop at her mid-back.
“No.”
She swallowed. “So you’ll let me go?”
“No.”
“So I am your prisoner.”
A heavy, gloved hand settled on her hip. She felt him bend over her as the zipper continued down its little track. Sloane’s robotic voice came out quieter when he replied, “No.”
