[ 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

Understood.

[ 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. ]

Yes
Understood
