...and he doesn't like to think about that, because the last breath like that he took was his first day back at the Hub after Lisa, at long last, died.

"The adjustment can be rough, but it's worth it." he assures her after a moment. "I come from a world similar enough to this one, albeit quite a ways into the future. Some things differ, but there's enough that's the same to find my way. One thing I can tell you, because I've worn that look...this is real. All of it. And if I can offer any means to help reassure you of that fact, I'm happy to help."
