Jane had gone home and worried that her mother or Cassandra would wonder about the bandage on her neck but Dr. Cullen did a good job and no one noticed.

Though she found her dreams were slightly richer as if there was something strange and full of passion inside her. She would wake up and try to write them but they slipped from her hand like the morning fog.

When a door to Milliways appeared, she at first hesitated but then went through to order a pot of tea and keep trying to write what she could not quite grasp.

George gripped the arms of the chair tightly on either side, and focused on his breathing for a moment.

After several minutes, he calmed down a little. Though the shot of brandy helped there as well.

"I've... I've heard about time stopping. Still, been a rough time back home. Make sure my friends are all right you know?"

He then asked, "Does anybody know why that happens? Just one day, door, next day no door?"

George sighed, and slumped in his seat slightly. Greatly resembling a pouting puppy dog at the moment.

He then studied her a moment, "How are you? Seem a little peaky today."

"Not under the weather are you?" She did seem paler from when they had met, and well it was that time of year. Harder for him to get colds nowadays. Probably one of the wolf's better perks really, but still felt sympathy for those who did.

"You need anything? More tea? Food?"

"Well before the whole Bound part, was actually all right. One of my friends got into a spot of trouble, but he's fine now. And well, my girlfriend and I have come to an understanding about some things." Even though he still didn't know that he had scratched her, but George was glad not to be keeping secrets from Nina anymore.

"Oh well, we've only been dating a few months now. She's wonderful. Her name's Nina. She's funny, nice, and sweet. Speaks her mind."

George nodded, "Was at the hospital we both work at. She's the senior staff nurse there. First meeting was well... we didn't get along at first, or she didn't like me much. Told me off a few times before I could really talk to her."

"Well, I wasn't acting like myself at the time, and she later said she saw how I was with some of the patients. I just like to sit with some of them. Especially when I knew they didn't get visitors and just wanted a friendly face."

George glanced down, "Well some of it. The rest... well she just found that out. I think it's still sinking a little." Though seeing him change did help break the ice on the topic at least.

George nodded, "I think it will now. I thought she wouldn't be able to accept me. That I had to push her away to keep her safe."

George sighed, and then explained, "It's more people trusting me. I'm not... well I'm not always like this."

George fidgeted, and played around with the glass where a few drops of brandy still clung to the bottom.

"I do, it's more something I can't completely control. Trying to, with a bit of luck."
