Steve made an easy, fast dismissive sound, as he popped another shrimp in his mouth. It was one thing to think it. It was another to claim it, or even . They were a brilliant team, and they would have been brilliant even without him, in their disparate lives.
"They did amazing, even when I was gone. You should see the files for those weeks."
That much was clear just in leaving and coming back. It gave him the chance to see what they were made of, and what they made of. Aside from the whole Danny scare tactic-ing a few people in ways that were decidedly more like Steve, than like Danny himself, the rest is brilliant. A written document on that proof that he'd known when he left. Hoped, more than known. But knew solidly now.
He'd been right about not needing to worry about them. That they had everything in hand. That even with Danny's slips, he'd been the right person to put in charge. That they'd all stepped up, spread out further, took on more, and totally were entirely capable of doing it without him.
