[ Okay, so he doesn't want one. Kendall leans over to to tap some ash from his cigarette, eyeing him with the weary gaze of someone who is not in the mood to analyse his own feelings. He's actually trying very hard not to think about them. ]

[ A beat. ]
Don't answer that. I'm fine, okay? I'm fucking – fine. It's whatever. I'm dead and I'm a prisoner on a spaceship with my brother who's also dead and the rest of our family is fuckin' nowhere to be seen. Could be worse, I guess, Dad could be here.
[ Roman's already starting the mental clock. Two sentences in on Kendall's schpiel and he's already bracing himself, readying for the inevitable descent into Kendall having a big ol' Breakdown.
It's not the first time the other's been like this, and Roman doesn't think it'll be the last, either. He shifts a little--squirms a little--and exhales through his nose, making the conscious decision to shelve the sardonic attitude. Just for a little. He tries to hide the flinch at the mention of their dad, too, though it's less obvious.
Is it weird he wants his dad here? Even after he's fucked them over? Logan Roy is a familiar, steadfast part of his life, despite it all. One he admires. ]

...We have each other, right? That's something.
