"Not maybe, yes on both accounts," she said firmly. "You should know to trust me by now. You'll see," she joked right back.
Looking at Eliot's eyes was a delight on any day. It was amazing how much of them she remembered after so long, especially since they hadn't been involved when Eliot lost them. That didn't seem to matter though, because she did remember them. Now that she had a comparison, she could see how perfectly she'd matched the color of his eyes when she'd ordered the conformers.
Now however, she wasn't focusing on Eliot's eyes themselves, but at the optical nerve she could see through the pupil. It knew what it had looked like, she'd watched it change before her eyes, and now again she could see that it had changed again. It didn't look like it had in her textbooks, but not like it had before either - it looked more like something in between. It was fascinating.
"It looks like a cross between what you had without your eyes and what the rest of us have," she said. "I don't know if that's why you don't see colors or if it's just a matter of time, but we'll find that out too."
She kissed him again. "You can see again!" she said happily, moving to sit in his lap and wrapping her arms around him.
