[ he can't quite tell if it's a dream or a slip in his memory, or maybe even a construct made especially for him; it happens often, especially in torture attempts, to try scrambling into the prisoner's brain for older memories. but if that's what it is, kovacs wouldn't have expected to find himself here for all that he tries to preserve every memory of quell against those that might try to take her away, even in memory.
but the person he finds next to him isn't someone he'd imagine leading any kind of construct. maybe it's just someone wearing the face of someone who's become familiar, someone he's come to regard as a good ally.
either way, he's always too enchanted in seeing quell again, even when he's never stopped seeing her, hallucinations on the daily meaning that she stands beside him in everything he does. but this feels more real than any fantasy, and he wants to come back here desperately, to when it all started. ]
Quellcrist Falconer — leader of the Uprising, founder of the Envoys. [ that's how people see her in the books. but he saw her as so much more. his voice is quiet, almost distant. ] I loved her.
