Re: quicklog: wren, luke, jack
[Hope took a lot of energy, and he didn't have all that much these days. Of course he wanted the old Max back, but there'd been no word for a while; Luke wasn't even sure what was going on with Amanda. If she came back, she came back. If she didn't, or she stayed young, well, it sucked, but there was nothing they could do. He knew Jack would take it hard but he didn't know how to make that better either.
He used to be a lot better at changing the subject. It wasn't even that he wanted to so much as he felt he should, because everyone had enough problems of their own without him adding his to the mix. That was the kind of thinking he'd been really, really good at in Seattle, the kind he tried to leave behind, but he couldn't seem to help it. Even with Wren, they'd only talked about it once. Luke didn't bring it up anymore; he kind of hoped she'd just assume things were better and forget. He shrugged again, because that was easier than answering and it bought him some time. Not long, but a few seconds anyway.]
You know. Going to that door. Everything that happened there. It's... the kind of bad you want to forget.
