You are going to be punished for that joke. If not by me, then by karma.
[Private to Near] 'Met someone' as in, tried to have a relationship with? Yes. And I think they actually had a relationship for a bit. Tosh was happy. And then it all went to shit.
I know this line of work doesn't lend itself to longevity. We actually have our own morgue, and it's nearly full. And last year, when Lisa was injured, hundreds more of our colleagues died.
I've lost too many friends already.
Jack and I have started talking about things between us, and he said if there's anything ever I need to discuss I shouldn't be afraid to come to him--but it's not fear that keeps me back, it really isn't. It's that I'm the calm one, the strong one, the one he'd be lost without--and when you establish yourself as the strong one it's terribly hard for others to accept when you need to be weak. Or at least when you need to be supported for a while.
I don't know. I don't know how to deal with this at all. Sometimes we're so much like a family and sometimes I look around and realize I don't really know any of them. I'd die for them, I really would, but--like with these silly games--if I had to tell any of them who they are, I'm not sure what I'd say.
