irl sucks

[ south has changed a lot, obviously. maybe it'd be different if wash had somehow been able to see those nine months she'd spent on the rig, but there's so much that wash recognizes her about her and so much that he doesn't. it's strange but nice being able to count her as one of his own, again. there was a time when he would've done that without hesitation, when he trusted everyone in their number like family, but he's changed a lot, too. a lot for the worse, and then now, for the better. maybe still not quite as stable as he wants to be, still has difficulty letting go of some things, but he's come a long way, and he knows it. they both have.

carolina had, too. he closes his eyes for a moment, making some quiet, amused sound as he moves a hand to his shoulder, kneading at it slightly as he rolls his shoulder back. ]


Sounds like I'm doing the right thing, then.

[ and he drops his hand, looking back across at south. ]

-- I wanted to check on you, but. [ a half-shrug, dropping his gaze for a moment. he wasn't sure if he should. carolina might not always be the best with emotions, with talking things out, but he figured she was probably still a lot better positioned to help her than he was. he just tried to give them space. ]
