[ it was involuntary, he knows, but there's still some part of him that feels like he's the one who messed up here. ]

[ despite his brash word choice, his voice is quiet, his tone considerate. ]
We're gonna get him back. Him an' everyone else.
no subject
Yeah. We will. I'm going to focus on that. [ as much as she can. ] At least I know he's not completely gone. That helps.
And I have people like you that make it easier, too.
