Imagine, if you will, the last chunk of the Vat7K journey, where Hugo is in full denial of basically all feelings he’s having towards anybody and is throwing himself into translating the journal and inventing nonstop just to distract himself from what’s coming. Varian, possibly remembering quiet conversations held on moonlit nights. completely misinterprets the root of the issue, so he decides to do what Coronans do best: Sing their feelings.
After the song, Varian quickly excuses himself once he realizes that he called Hugo, who he is not in a romantic relationship with (yet), “babe” like 7 times. This does get Hugo out of the habits he’d fallen into, but now he’s got even more problems.
