Seventh Flight - Video
[Even the glasses can't hide the sadness behind them. Clark is quiet when the video feed comes on, and his eyes only briefly flicker toward the video. He twists his hands together in front of him, anxiously.]
I don't know if it's just me, but--
[The hands unknot and then Clark raises one to the back of his head, rubbing at his neck.]
How do you go about fixing a mistake, healing a relationship if the trust between you has been completely shattered? If the other person wants no part of it?
I forgive them for what happened. I'm sorry, because it was as much my fault, but I don't know if they can forgive themselves.
[A sigh, and he drops his hands back into his lap, looking defeated.]
This is a fickle place. People die, and the Core brings them back. People get sent away, and they come back older, or without their memories at all. The time that we have together could end tomorrow, and I don't want to spend it at loggerheads with someone. Life's too short for that.
