it still might be nice to have a reminder of home. [ one that doesn't make her violently sick. ]

there's a place from home i used to go to. it's called the space needle. i haven't found anywhere quite that high here, but yeah. it's good to have a vantage point.

sure, if you ever feel like making the trip down here. [ a beat. ] might be easier if i come to you, though.

Does it look like a needle... in space? [ He's trying to wrap his head around what that would look like. ]

My home is always welcome to you, Max.

oh. uh, it's a building they set up for a fair, decades ago. it kind of became the city's landmark.

[ after a few moments, she sends him a sketch, since she doubts she'll be able to find a picture of the actual structure. it's another few minutes before she responds to what else he said. ]

thank you, lucas.
for that and everything else.

[scarecrowed]

Thank you for the sketch. I can see how it would be a landmark for its unique structure.

You don't need to thank me, not after what I hid from you. I will keep trying to make it up to you.

apparently it was a pretty big tourist attraction back in the day. it was deserted by the time i found my way to seattle, but it made for a pretty good place to be alone. i'd sit out on the roof of it and watch the city and try to feel normal.

[ she debates for another few moments about how to reply to the next part of what he said. for a little while, she debates not saying anything. but if she's asking him for honesty, she owes him the same. ]

you saved my life. i owe you thanks for that, at least.
but it hurt, you keeping something like that from me.

[scarecrowed]

You wouldn't be who you are if you were like everyone else. I like the woman I've come to know.

I hope one day you can look at me and not feel the hurt I caused you.

[revvedup]

i guess not.
i like you, too.

and i think i can. it's - what you did for me helped.
it didn't erase it, but i appreciate that you did it in spite of that.
