"I'm certain you will soon."

Altair doubted Thrawn would let his brother remain in guest quarters for very long, before moving him into somewhere a bit more permanent, and certainly more comfortable. Altair knew that if he got his brother back, he would do all that was in his power to make sure he was comfortable, and had a place to call his own, and people to support him. Thrawn wasn't as outwardly emotional as he was, but he knew he wasn't as cold as he seemed on first glance. Certainly not when it came to his brother.

Altair had seen his sorrow, after all, and his joy when Altair had come with Thrass in tow.

He gestured for Thrass to follow him, so they could fetch tea before going to his quarters, "Have you been speaking with the Jedi girl in all of this? I've been made aware that she's thinking about the offer I made her, but I am also concerned for her wellbeing. She must be feeling very lost."

Thrass had Thrawn to come back to, had someone he could lean on for the adjustment period. But the Jedi Order the girl had known was gone. There was nothing really that she knew that she could go back to. And though Altair would appreciate if she did join them in their goal, he was also genuinely concerned for her. He knew what it felt like, after all, to find oneself in the future, and finding that all one had believed in was gone.

"I would go and ask her myself, but I don't want to spook her. I'm certain she's already had nightmares about someone like me crawling out from beneath her bed at night."

That was how Sith were seen, after all. Not unwarranted in these days, but still. Altair didn't like being seen as the monster beneath the bed very much. He hoped to be able to prove that he wasn't some nightmare creature, and that he genuinely did want to help her however he could.
