Let's light this candle and make this first meeting all the more weird and unnerving.
Clarke gets a particular shade of sad smile dancing around her mouth. It's pinched and mournful, resigned and exhausted all in one. But bright in affirmation when she nods and says:
"Oh yeah, we can die over and over here. I'm at... three? And sometimes revival means the Captain keeps one of your internal organs."
She's usually pretty hush-hush about her missing kidney but, given Palamedes was the one who figured out its surprising absence... Gideon really does just essentially skip four friendship levels and get the blatant truth from Clarke at first blush, it's weirdly refreshing.
