It's awfully hard to move back in with someone if they keep moving around, you know!
( She let's it come out like an easy tease. All the things that have been happening with and since the mutiny have been important, stupid, so many different words and emotions.
She's glad Steph's overprotective side means that no one's going to go off half cocked at him and say or do something they'll regret. She doesn't think they would.
But it's nice not having to worry. )
Private: but Steph's probably still reading his messages sigh
Yeah, people are weird, they're never really sure what to do with us when we're under 18 so... yeah, I can! Just, um.
( How to say what she wants to say? )
I'm proud of you. The uh... the way was dumb, but it's -- it's important to be able to say what you've done and why. 'Cause it's important to act on the things you believe in, even if you find along the way you don't believe in every part of what's going on.
Still... I'd like it if you could stay. Or... well, I guess I'm still in the West Wing, but um. Can I see you?
( She says firmly, with a smile that can carry in her tone. )
Friends don't always do things the same way. It doesn't make them less of friends or anything. And making mistakes, or regrets, things like that, those are normal too.
...Thanks. [ Just thanks isn't good enough, and knowing he'd made her smile just for that makes him wish he could see it. ]
You know I was... [ A bad person. A bad friend. ] -well, I helped take the network down at the beginning. So when it went back up I was watching it the whole time.
...I just kinda wondered if you'd ever want to talk to me again.
[ He huffs a nervous breath out. ]
I know the stuff I did wasn't normal. If you did want to forget you ever knew me, that's what I would've deserved.

[ It's easier to put it like that, brush away the awkwardness of having to have this conversation in the first place.
It's Collette, not a stranger.. ]
...But I probably can't stay here anymore either.
private: sounds good!
