[Tali doesn’t have the fact of knowing Abe back home to look at, though she does know full well that if Abe is gone from here, she will never see him again. COMPASS are the only link she and any of her friends here have, and it sickens her whenever it occurs to her again, like it does now.
And Abe in particular – the closest and longest friend she’s made here – him not being around any more hurts, hurts more than she thought it ever would. The feeling of being happy for him mixes with it like oil and water – which is to say, the two don’t mix, and are always going to be confusing, and it’s just an oily, grim thing all around.
Suffice to say, if he’s gone, she’s going to miss him pretty damn bad. There are long pauses between texts, not sure how to communicate it and, for a moment, not sure she knows what she’s communicating.]
i don’t know anybody who’s turned into one of them. I don’t think I do. [And... actually, very much hopes she doesn't.]
You okay?
