[For a moment he trails off. There's a lot he wants to say. But should he? It's hard sometimes to balance respecting space and speaking his mind. But he thinks, he has to say what he's thinking, otherwise he's not giving Crow the chance to respond. If they can't talk things out, then it's bad.
His expression gets more determined and he steps forward again, gently chasing Crow, but not too far. Just getting close enough.]
Ever since things have settled down you've been avoiding talking about how you feel. I know it has to be hard, coming back like nothing has changed. But things have changed. A lot has. You, me, our friends, this country. Trista isn't immune to that either. But part of that change is that everyone is moving forward. We're not looking back, and I think... I feel like you are.
I didn't bring you back here to make you live another lie. If you're troubled by things, it's okay to share that. I want you to rely on me.
