Jacob runs them - honestly I'd consider signing up if it didn't go against my standing orders with the Air Force. [ Something in his voice implied that if push came to shove he'd join them anyway: just maybe not officially. ]
And it's good for 622, I think. I suggested that he try the police force, here, but he uh - he was worried that might constitute treason. So it's a good middle ground for him.
Far as I understand they basically act as a defence force for when the really weird shit goes down. And when it comes to imPorts, really weird shit goes down pretty often. My friend Archie's signing up with them, too, so he's in good company.

[ If Poe picked up on the tone, he didn't indicate it at all, happily adding: ]
He's a good guy - great sense of humour and he'll always back you up, even on a bad day. He can heal people with rainbows, which is - well it's pretty damn weird but also amazing at the same time. And he has these animals called pokemon that are just - damn, they're cute --
Yeah. And he's gone out of his way to help 622 before, after the Phobos mission when he -- [ A dark look crossed his face but he wiped it away quickly. ]
He'll make sure 622 comes through everything okay.
The radiation, you mean. [ Hearing that this Archie was the one to help 622 through that does improve Akobi's perception of the man. But his mouth is set in a hard line when he thinks about 622 putting himself through that. ]
Well, I'm going to look into joining up myself, so I ought to be able to see to that personally.

[ A pause, and then, a little sadly: ]
It's one of the ways you can figure out if someone's really gone.

[ He can see it now. He's going to have to stop himself for checking the system directory relentlessly for names he recognizes. ]
Tell me... What do you know about this Aegis unit that TK-622 has joined up with?

I think I spoke to a man named Archie.

think we can wrap up?
But for the second part, Poe offered him an honest smile. ]
Good. [ The smile broadened a little. ] Maybe then I can worry less.
