"Sorry. That... that wasn't fair."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Mar 06, 2012 2:36 pm

"It's OK. It's important to speak your mind."

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Mar 06, 2012 2:49 pm

"No, but I shouldn't think like that. It's just... what if it had been you up there?"

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Mar 06, 2012 3:52 pm

"And now you know why I need to push myself. I need to know what I can and what I can't do, so I ~don't~ get in over my head.

And so I always come back."

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Mar 06, 2012 4:01 pm

Sara looks torn up but wraps her arms around Will and holds him tight.

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Mar 06, 2012 4:46 pm

"I ALWAYS will come back. Always."

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Mar 06, 2012 4:47 pm

"I know. I know! But I still can't help but worry."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Mar 06, 2012 7:10 pm

"That's why I'm doing this. Heck, and maybe your report will turn something useful up, I don't know."

"Haven't found some kind of 'teleport home' emergency ability yet, no." she smiles a bit weakly.

"How about a 'anyone who hurts me does it to themselves' frequency?" Will chuckled.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 3:27 am

"Nope. Only a 'loveable' gene."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 12:42 pm

"Well, you'll need to synthesize that."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 12:45 pm

She chuckles. "You know that's not how that work, right?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 12:58 pm

"Pfft, just science it."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 1:05 pm

She smiles, even though it wavers a little. "Wish I could."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 1:11 pm

"OK, what's wrong?"

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 1:15 pm

"Nothing. Just... Steph talked to me..."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 1:17 pm

"Ugh."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 1:19 pm

"I'm sorry. I was trying not to worry, but the... the last time you did that was... when..."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 1:20 pm

"Yeah...but I was doing really good this time."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 1:33 pm

"She didn't go into too much detail. I didn't wanna make too big a deal out of it but... I can't just ignore it either."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 1:37 pm

"Then help me."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 1:51 pm

"I'm trying! What do you need me to do?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 1:53 pm

"You don't like how I'm pushing myself? Help me do it safely! I'm trying to find my limits so that I know what I can get into, instead of all this stumbling around blind. I was doing well until Steph barged in and amped the difficulty level."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 2:04 pm

You didn't have to turn the safeties off...

"I want to. I just... I can't read your mind. Let me know so I can come along. When something happens that makes you worry then please let me know. I get scared too..."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 2:11 pm

"I know...I just....I just don't want YOU to get hurt."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 2:16 pm

"We're all more vulnerable when we're by ourselves, right?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 2:19 pm

"But...I mean, there's things I can handle that, um..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 2:25 pm

"That I can't?" she says, shifting to granite.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 2:36 pm

"Well, some of it, yeah!"

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 2:53 pm

"Okay, maybe that's true, but those I can observe on, make sure you're alright..."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 3:28 pm

"You don't though. This is not the first time I've asked."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 4:12 pm

"You know I'm not the biggest fan of it. Just... remind me when you want to push yourself. I know it'll never be my idea to do something like that..."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 4:13 pm

"Now."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 4:16 pm

"Now? Actually, okay. Yeah, let's." she says, pushing her chair away from the desk. "I've been avoiding it for way too long. I should have done this after we... you know... in the future..."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 4:17 pm

"Can we NOT speak in vague vaguities?"

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 4:24 pm

"Future You, the grumpy guy, he told me to take care of you and make sure you're strong enough and... he was kinda nuts but he also had a bit of a point. I just... I guess in a way I was scared because I didn't want you to end up like him..."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 4:28 pm

"The grumpy guy. Nice description."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 4:34 pm

"You know what I mean... I didn't wanna listen to him because he was an ass and because I didn't want to push you even one step in that direction."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 4:36 pm

"Can you blame him?"
