[He'd been completely on edge coming into this place. Dull and dead inside. Cold.]

[It has been a gradual thawing. And it's still slow.]

[But it's happening. Ice gradually sloughing off.]

[He opens his mouth. Closes it.]

[Looks at him sidelong, eyes a little glassy, looks away.]

Mm hmm.

[It's the safest thing to say because North won't hear his voice crack with it.]

[But there's still a tremor in his voice with those two syllables anyway.]

[ As much as Wash gives lip service to that being ancient history, it obviously still affects him. And how could it not? The fact that saying this outright seems to have given him pause in whatever measure means North is going to let things hang like that for a time, in silence.

Eventually he stirs a bit and decides to change the subject. ]

So do you help out here much? In the garden, I mean.

[parannoyed]

I don't help out here. I just like spending some time here.

[He looks out at all the green.]

It reminds me of something but I can't really remember what. Maybe the moon I lived on with Carolina and Tucker and the others?

[ North looks out at the green as well. ]

There weren't many spots on the sim base planet that were this green, so I haven't seen this kind of view in a long time.
