That is the downside to space. Thankfully I learned how to breath less... well how to need to breath less. Saved my life.
As much as emotions and personal connections can endanger missions, they can also be the key to success. Plus, I don't think anyone can have complete control over what they're feeling; they can only have complete control over what they do. And being at peace with the fact that you'll be angry and sad and joyous and heartbroken and all of that is necessary to be able to do that. It takes understanding. Which, okay, philosophy discussions are also a thing. Oh yeah? I guess I just came into a system which had names. Didn't really consider them.
Through the Force, together. How tight a connection that is can vary. It can be sensing where the other person is, getting a feeling of their emotions, understanding to the point you can fight as a team without talking. And with my best friend, actually talking to each other inside our heads. But I've only done that with Anakin.
