[There's a sudden harsh laugh, at the back of her mind, and she briefly presses her hand over her lips, not wanting it to come out. It wasn't funny, of course. It was the question itself. Too much time had passed, and she certainly couldn't tell him about it. Not when he was like this, so far removed from it all, and young again, and... it ached.

You've always supported my work better than anyone.
[As much as he had questioned her when he first arrived... but he hadn't known who she was then. It seemed almost irrelevant, now that he knew who she was and not who she had been.]
But there is a problem. One I can't explain, and that's... there's just so much I've forgotten. So many things I haven't realized I've lost.
