[ he blinks. huh. a year isn't much to him, usually, but everything that had happened in scawwy almost feels like another lifetime at this point. in the time he'd been there, he'd changed a lot and been braver and more proactive and more concerned with other people than he ever had been, but he'd always figured he'd just end up falling back into the same old traps and going back to his old self when he got back home. and after a while, he kind of had, if not as bad as before.
kate had already been all those things before she'd even gotten there. she didn't need eight weeks of hell to turn her into a decent and productive person. and she was still a kid!! knowing she actually kind of thinks he's dependable and worth respecting makes him feel like the fakest bitch in the world (and not in the usual good way). ]
Haha... well, I'm glad. It does feel better to have someone you've already spent a lot of time living with here, huh? At least you don't have to keep your guard up all the time that way.
