Better.

Much better.

Listen. I have kind of meant to say a lot of things to you since we got back. About where you were. About what you saw. And about coming back here. But I want to do that in person. When you're ready.

I'm glad.

It's... been two years, Morgan. I'm as ready as I'll ever be.

Does it feel like two years, to you?

...Where do you want to meet? My cabin? Yours? One of the common areas?

A common area would be preferable. Level 3?

[When she arrives in the common area she doesn't immediately sit, waiting, but for the first time she's beginning a meeting without appearing nervous, or conversely, overbearing. For once they're not fighting and she's not about to unload something painful on him.]

[West is waiting, since he was already on level 3, and he's sitting back in one of the chairs. When Morgan arrives, he stands to greet her.]

Hello, Morgan.

[WHOO EXCITING TAG.]

[It's kind of sweet that he stood when she entered the room, so she doesn't wave it off and tell him to sit down right away]

Hi, Henry. [She gestures for him to have a seat while she takes her own, but she doesn't fully settle back or make herself comfortable.]

[He sits down and looks at Morgan.]

How have you been sleeping?

[It's the first question he asks because he knows how it is to come from that hell. Sleep didn't come easily for him for several months.]

[Well, at least she doesn't have to lead into it.]

Bad for the first week or so. After that it was just the waking up. But that's gotten better lately.

[He nods.] Good. In time, it will pass. [For the most part. Never entirely.]

So, you survived my world. Who did you have to kill?
