Thanks!

[Action, October 16th]
[Until he got here he was still waiting, and wondering.]
[Action, October 16th]
... This is-- a lot.
[Action, October 16th]
[Really, what else could he say? She'd asked, but... he'd kind of forced her into that corner. This is what he'd been trying to protect her from, this intensity, this uncertainty, this... weight. The knowledge that somewhere, someday, there are children in her future. Sort of.]
...Sorry.
[Action, October 16th]
[Action, October 16th]
If... you're okay with that. I think I... we... we'd like that. Yeah...
[Action, October 16th]
[She fidgets with her fingers a little, anxiously.]
I don't think I'm going to be... a good mother. I don't even-- know how to wrap my head around that. But... for now, I think-- I like knowing that you're here. And that... we belong together. Although-- I haven't been able to find Tommy since things-- went back.
[Action, October 16th]
Don't worry about, um... being a mom. We'd never expect that of you, and... I do have one back home. I'm not looking to replace her.
[He can't speak for Tommy, but he's in a complicated situation all on his own. And speaking of-]
Try not to worry about Tommy, either. He's fast at everything except... processing emotions, I guess. Give him some time.
[Action, October 16th]
[There's a momentary beat, when she realizes that how much sense that suddenly makes. The resemblance that seemed to uncanny to her. Of course. She covers her face with her hands, feeling very stupid suddenly.]
... I... have a lot of questions. ... Which-- I don't know if you can answer or want to, or... anything. They can wait though.
...
...Is there-- anything I can do help you?
[Action, October 16th]
It's... fine. I just- there's something wrong with... my head, um...
[He shifts uncomfortably, rubbing at his forehead, then shivers and glances away.]
...It's fine. And I'll answer whatever questions I can, if... you want to ask. I promise I'll try.
[Action, October 16th]
I do have questions. ... I sort of... I need to think first though. Or they'll all come out-- wrong. You... need to get better. And I... need to think.
[Action, October 16th]
[In a way, he's relieved. Hugely. He has no idea how he could answer the kind of questions he imagines her asking. Probably not well. He hasn't done very well in thinking clearly since he woke up, and he doubts this would be any easier.]
I'll get better. Teddy says... [Teddy says a lot of things.] ...I'm sure I will. Then... we can talk.
