Hunk just exhaled a deep, sighing stream of air. That's rough. It resonated with some of his own experiences, and as much as he wanted to share those, he knew they wouldn't help her now. Or maybe even at all.

"Well, if they kidnapped his dad, what do you think they would do if they saw you?" He winced, and shrugged his shoulders a bit. Hunk didn't know the whole story, and he might never. "A tyrant isn't going to have any trouble aiming for someone vulnerable." And considering she sounded so hurt, so eager to go and help? She might've made mistakes.

"Plus you're small. Young. An easy target, to some people." He scoffs and sneers at the words, thinking back to times when Pidge had to deal with an enemy that thought she'd be easy pickings. "Did they know what they were up against?"

(( And then this thread wraps up with Connie doubling down on her side of the issue, and Hunk admitting he has no idea because he wasn't there, and getting her to hope that Steven shows up instead, because that's maybe happier. ))
