In the very beginning of your reunion you felt some fear, recognizing how much power he held over you. The vast expectations he had for you. The concept is hard to comprehend nowadays, even if a vague memory lingers. Does the sky hold power over the earth? It is a meaningless question to ask for two things that coexist closely enough to be one continuous whole. When the sky fills in all the gaps of the earth, is a vast expectation so unreasonable for either of you? Should you limit the definition of yourself, just out of fear? You can be considered separately. But why would you want to be?

...she's told ingo here, though, that she'll do what she can to make sure he and his brother go home together, and things like this-- they solidify it. they should have what she wasn't able to give her crewmates, her own chosen family, and ingo should have his whole self. that's exactly what this is for.
so with that-- time to look forward, she thinks. she'd best be ready when this train finds its destination.]

...but let's not think too hard on that. she goes back to the first one, of him and emmet.]
