Objectively I understand why he felt the need to leave. [ And she's not going to go into it. But objectively she does...get it. ] Like I did when Warren needed space after things with Archangel. [ About as close as she'll get to an explanation. Which also hints at just how much it bothered her--more because she's been reminded freshly of those wounds. ]

I can't see it mattering either way. I'm fairly certain I'm not something he wants to get too close to and that...well, I can't really blame him. [ She shrugs ] Still...I can't say it wasn't nice to feel like enough for a moment.

[He can accept that, and respect her respect for this guy's privacy.]

Hey, now, Bets. Yo' enough. Jus' 'cause dis homme is blind don't change dat.

[ She will...silently disagree. Though she takes his hand and squeezes it as she leans her head to his shoulder. ]

Thank you. Perhaps...you have a point. I should do some thinking. [ Will she? Maybe. Probably not. But it's a nice sentiment. ]

[athiefalways]

It's an option. [He smiles.] Ain' like I'm a shinin' example of good life choices.

[serendipitously]

[ She chuckles. ] Or good functional relationships.

[athiefalways]

Ouch. [He places a hand over his heart before smirking.] Ain' wrong, though. 'Course, who among us is guilty o' that?

[serendipitously]

None of us. We're all bloody awful at relationships. [ She laughs though, can't even help it. Really, their drama is almost comical sometimes. ] Pure disasters all around.

Maybe it's one of dose shared traits, non? Like we all got noses, we're mammals, we're messy in relationships.
