sorry, it's this guy who comes around in winter and gives presents to people who are good it's like a holiday thing nevermind
I'm used to danger too, a lot of it, constantly, but none of it prepared me for this I don't think anyone was prepared for this You'd have to be insane to be okay with this place I don't know why we're here I don't know what they want But you're not alone in the way you feel I feel it, and I know a lot of others who feel the same way
You're strong You seem strong strong people adapt, and they keep going, and they find a way to fix things or at the very least survive them.
[ This is the sort of thing that Juniper normally says thank you to. The reassurance, that she's not alone, that it's okay to feel the way she does, that she's not actually going crazy, and the reaffirmation that maybe she's not as weak as she thinks she is.
Only it's coming from him, so she's hesitant to even accept any of it. ]
i have survived loss i have survived being torn apart, and put back together i have survived you i have survived their stupid facility their. whatever they did to me i adapted, home i adapted, here but i am tired, too
[ No, no no no she's being too open with him again, so again she stops herself from revealing anything more. Those things are reserved, for people better than Barnes. ]
those were nice words, though i wish they hadn't come from you
[ That should be the end of that. It should. She puts her phone down for a while, too, but- after she calms down, heaven help her, she picks it back up again. Loose ends. ]
i won't try to kill you, if i see you again but i would prefer not to see you again
is that understood, too?
[ Congratulations, Barnes, you've managed to talk her down from the threat of attack on sight she'd left you with the last time you spoke. ]
