[Maybe you're at the media store or educational center to play your disc. Maybe you're just out and about somewhere contemplating what you saw or whether to see it. Either way, you're bound to run into someone!]

	What were you supposed to do, anyway? 'Hey you're fake where I come from' like - whatever. Unwinnable. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-02-06 07:33 am UTC (link)
	That's what I told her! [ Except there's kind of one thing he hasn't really admitted to yet. ] Though, uhm... I kind of understand where she was coming from. We were getting... close. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[On one hand he's cheering for you here Reid but on the other, he just finished saying you were screwed either way so - he's feeling for you too.] How'd that happen? [Sounds harsh but you know him by now, right?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-02-09 11:45 am UTC (link)
	[ Jerk with a heart of gold, got it. ] I don't know! It keeps happening. [ He's less happy about that. ] We've been talking for awhile and it just... you know. Things... stirring. We have a lot in common. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	evilspawn 2016-02-10 02:44 am UTC (link)
	I know you wouldn't do it on purpose man, but I can see why she might've gotten a little wigged. Especially if she started liking you and you suddenly knew her life back to front. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-02-10 10:51 am UTC (link)
	I know... and I don't blame her. Not at all, she has every right to be mad but it's not like I did it on purpose and she's not really giving me a chance to make up for it either. I just... I wish I knew what she wants me to do. Even if it's just to never talk to her again. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	evilspawn 2016-02-12 05:53 am UTC (link)
	Have you asked her? [Karev: Guru of advice he probably wouldn't ever follow.] Like just ask her what the hell's up. What she wants or expects from you because dude, you just came out of a crappy set of things. You don't need to feel even more like crap because she's twisting her own panties. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-02-12 11:31 am UTC (link)
	Not yet. I don't really want to risk it considering what happened last time we tried to talk. [ And it's still awkward being this Star Wars guru and as such in a position of power over her, regardless of his own intentions. ] Maybe it's better to just leave it alone for now. It's a small dome, we can't avoid each other forever. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	evilspawn 2016-02-13 06:44 am UTC (link)
	If she hits you again, come see me - I can make that crap look half as bad in half the time. [He was going to work in plastics! He knows things!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-02-13 10:30 am UTC (link)
	[ Are you saying he needs a nosejob. ] Thanks... I'll keep that in mind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	evilspawn 2016-02-13 08:05 pm UTC (link)
	[He's saying he's going to die without procedures to do here.] ... Hey, you uh. Watch your disc today? [Guess who hasn't.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-02-13 08:07 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. It was surprisingly good, actually. [ And he'd offer a viewing, but- ] I take it you haven't? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	evilspawn 2016-02-13 08:12 pm UTC (link)
	No. [What's it going to show? His life's been pretty shit all the way through.] What'd you get on yours? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-02-13 10:06 pm UTC (link)
	A wedding — two of my friends got married last year. Do, uhm... do you want to see it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	evilspawn 2016-02-14 07:54 am UTC (link)
	[He makes a noise, a bitten back start to his words while his shoulders roll tensely.] - No, it's fine. There's a good chance whatever's on mine isn't great. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-02-14 11:07 am UTC (link)
	And you think I had really good odds of a happy memory? [ C'mon man. ] Do you want me to look at it for you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Karev's quiet a beat as he considers the offer. There's a huge part of him that screams no at the thought of sharing any part of his past with anyone. It's a miracle the people he cares about back home found out bits and pieces. He's always tried to keep that shit under lock unless he had to spill it but - if there's literally one person in this entire dome that he thinks he could trust? Who has had similar shit go down?

He swallows hard. Nods.] You'd do it?

Can't be worse than spending an afternoon analyzing torture porn, can it?

[ For work. He doesn't need to specify that, right? He's just trying to lighten the mood here, he knows how anxiety ridden this sort of thing can be and the only reason why he watched his alone was so no one else would be clued in on how absolutely shitty his life is, had it actually been a shitty video. ]

I'll watch it.

[He makes a face that clearly states 'I'm not going to ask, but I get it'.

Then he pulls out the disc to offer it over. It's easy to see the tension in him as he stands in the same beat.] You watch, I'll - go take a piss. Grade it on a scale of 1 to a shitty childhood for when I get back.

[The disc has four different scenes in it, some craftily shorter than others but nothing spectacularly awful - the worst perhaps being the flashback of his wedding to Izzie.]

[ He settles down, waiting until Karev's out of earshot before he loads up the video. Watches, quietly, taking in the scene, the context, like this is any other case. He feels like that's the best way to approach this, with professionalism rather than sentimentality, like Alex might get that better. Knowing what he knows, this could be sensitive and he's not taking this lightly in the least.

When the video ends, he packs up the disc again. Waits, hands folded on the table. ]

[Longest leak in history taken, it was more of Karev just pacing in the restroom and smoothing his hands back through his hair while convincing himself to keep waiting until the disc was over for sure. And then a few minutes more before time just becomes a temporal construct and limited resource and he says fuck it, alright.

Returning to Reid, anxiety is his best man in this situation and he rubs at his shoulder while sitting down.] ... So?

	thisiscalm 2016-02-16 10:52 am UTC (link)
	Keep in mind that I don't understand the full context of any of these. [ So, you know... maybe it's worse than he thinks? Maybe it's better? Your mileage may wary. ] There was some of you working... a premature baby. Very premature. A few clips of your brother that seemed pretty intense. And, uh... your wedding. That was it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	evilspawn 2016-02-17 08:30 am UTC (link)
	[The baby - well, it's not the only time he's worked with a premie. It may have been one of the ones that led him to PEDS but it sounds like just another day. Something he'll want to look at, however, out of fondness he doesn't dare let anyone catch on to. He fiddles with a sugar container, evidently uncomfortable.] Aaron... and Izzie? Not sure which is worse. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2016-02-17 09:10 am UTC (link)
	[ He makes a noise of sympathy. Family is hard and relationships are harder. ] You're a good guy, Alex. You deserve way more respect than people are giving you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	evilspawn 2016-02-17 09:14 am UTC (link)
	What makes you say that? [Can you notice that it unnerves him to have someone say that out loud? Makes him really wonder what you saw and if you're profiling and that instinct that you summed up not too far back for him Reid, the pushing away defense mechanism, it makes him want to instinctively put it to work again. So nobody says those words again.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
