I understand that doesn't mean he's ready to talk to me, necessarily. But thank you so much for whatever you said to help him come around to where he is now. I love you.
I didn't really say much of anything beyond "Talk to meeeee" because he's avoiding me too and I'm only HERE for so long! And then I asked if he knew that and he said he did.
He will be ready. From what he said, he went outside after it all started and when Julian wasn't there, he tried to go back in. And no one would let him. I think he's just...having some psychological problems with it all. Understandably.
Well, I'm still very grateful you talked to him. And in a very cute way, at that.
Ah, I understand completely. God, that must have been devastating. The people who wouldn't let him in were just doing their jobs, and they were right to, but I can only imagine how harmful that would be to Joe. It's no wonder he needs time to sort things out.
Yes, and I'm glad they did their jobs because...he's my brother and if something had happened to him I'd be wrecked. I can't imagine how horrified he was though. Thinking 'I just wanted to check and now...' Maybe I should stop talking about it?
Personally, I think Deirdre's the hero of that particular event, but I know she'd deny it... so I shall accept your compliments gratefully, my love. I love that you think that of me.
Better today that I was yesterday. What Joe said helped a lot. If he can say that, it tells me that it really wasn't my fault. Not all of me is ready to believe that yet, I guess, but I'm getting there. Of course, not being my fault doesn't make it any less devastating to all concerned. I still saw, and heard... everything. More than anyone ever should, and I wasn't the only one.
You are a hero, Spectre. You're my hero. You saved my family. Deirdre can be a hero too. I've always known that both of you were.
No one expects you to be perfectly okay. I'm glad you're getting there. You inspire me, Babe. I know you saw and heard things no one should have to. What happened was beyond devastating. But you haven't let it break you. I love you for that and so many other things.

You want me to bring you shiny lube too?!
Hah, that's about the lamest pick up line ever.

Shiny lube is never lame.
