"Jaxen, I'm going to warn you before you connect to Sage's network. Once you do so, you have gained a permanent fan."
Nox smirked and looked at Sage just as the hacker shoved Nox in the shoulder. Nox grinned at his friend. "You look better than I've seen you in months."

He tapped his head. "New processors works great."
Sage zoned out a little the light in his eyes faded and his entire demeanor changed when he went inside his head.

Strange and unsettling feelings trickled through his skin and Nox looked away from Sage and back to Jaxen. "Sage, Jaxen. Jaxen, Sage. One of you decide."
