yeah, kinda same? probably not for the same reasons, tho
[ She'd take CT on in a heartbeat except for not wanting to deal with finding out if they were even actually friends, in CT's eyes. She'd be far too scared of her saying no, that even that was one-sided, South seeing something that wasn't there. ]
but yeah, i get that too. not that it matters when they're not around and hopefully won't be. since y'know, i wouldn't wish this on ppl
fingers crossed, the only good thing abt having having ppl from home around is the 'they're not dead here and neither am i so we can fix shit' shit and that's STRESSFUL
[ If Ducky catches that slip, it'll be the second time she told someone she's dead at home without even meaning to. ]
[ The Wash from the rig made sure she knew, it was the first thing he really said to her—what was the last thing she remembered, her shooting him in the back or him putting a bullet between her eyes? But for obvious reasons, she can’t go into that. Besides, they get on now, it’s fine. ]
kinda? mostly cause i don’t know what good thinking about it does. either i go back and live it, or i stay here forever, at this point. was gonna dodge it entirely, if i’d made it home from the rig, but that’s off the table now
[ She thinks about it more than she should, she thinks. Thinking about it, believing she deserved it, is what freaked North out so bad last time. ]
least you know now, if i ever feel super weird about it i can tell you? i mean, you know me, i still might not bc i’m stubborn, but
thanks, like, rlly. me too. glad i’ve had the chances i’ve had. and hey, i feel plenty alive when we spend time together
[ Which sounds like, a super cheesy line or something, she realises after she sends it, but it’s meant as both a real sentiment and a joke at once. Ducky’s good company, no matter what they’re doing. ]

I'm glad you have that opportunity.
no subject
oh fuck what did i say this time
[ She doesn’t tend to read much into every pause but that one has her glancing back at what she wrote. And, sure enough. ]
ah, shit
y’know one day i’ll go a month without my mouth or fingers working faster than my brain. one day
no subject
But I did catch that.

i kinda avoid it bc i don’t wanna freak people out, y’know?
it’s a weird thing to drop on people. ‘hi, i’m technically dead’ isn’t exactly small talk
it hasn’t actually happened yet, if that means anything. got yoinked before i lived it
[ Which 100% makes it weirder, really. ]

on the rig, before here, but yeah. i got told

I don't know what to say. I don't know if there is anything that would be right for me to say about it.
no subject
it’s okay, ducky, it’s a weird fuckin situation. kinda why i try not to dump it on people on purpose
like, hell, most people i know who died back home in these places came kinda from when it happened, but somehow i ended up special i guess

Anyway, I am glad you are alive here. And I'm glad to know you.

You make me feel more alive, too.

[ No that does not make her grin to herself, shut up. ]
i'd say that i know i at least keep you on your toes but like, do i? i don't think it takes you any effort to keep up with me
...i do keep you on your toes physically though. y'know. bc i'm too damn tall
