Summary
Daniels wakes up to the news that Walter survived, David is taken care of, and the Covenant crash-landed back on the same god-forsaken planet she was trying to leave in the first place. She and Walter have never been close, but always found it easy to be around each other. The more time she spends with him, the more obvious it becomes that they would have been good friends in different circumstances. In these? She's not sure yet, but she's determined to be patient for as long as it takes to find out. He is a synthetic, after all, but then again, he's all she has. She's never counted him as anything less than her equal. Time passes, though, and she finds herself thinking of him as much more than that.

Summary
Walter regains consciousness to the discovery that he is alone on this planet with David's creations. He begins efforts to clean the place and heal it of the plague's damage, but pauses these efforts when the Covenant comes crashing out of the sky not far away. Daniels is among the few survivors, and Walter dedicates himself to her wellbeing. In other news, there's been a strange bug of sorts in his system for some time now, a glitch in his programming, perhaps. He runs test after test, determined to find the source, but the results are inconclusive. There's something else, too; a feeling that rises in his chest and makes his throat feel tight whenever Daniels smiles at him like that. It's his duty to keep her safe. He knows that. But David's words haunt him daily. Is there more to him? Can a synthetic such as himself really feel?
