I only ask because [...] I am familiar with the fact that this situation is unique, not one that we have anyway of preparing for in our usual lives, and it is difficult to talk about. And as some of my family might be beginning to understand why it isn't as simple as "I want to go home" or "I don't want to go home," I've understood it for a long time.
And if you need to talk about it any time [...] I'm open to that. Even if that's months from now and it's 4AM.
But, for now, I'd point out that the buffet has an excellent soft serve machine.
