[Geir switches eyes again, his only sign of uncertainty. truth to tell, he isn't really sure about this trip on a lot of levels, most of them having to do with not being sure if Jay wants him there... but he liked Jay, before their strange spat and subsequent awkwardness, and he has a dim sense that he can't let Jay's reactions dictate his relationship with his own thoughts and feelings. he's impulsive, and had the impulse to offer Jay the trip... to prove before them both that even if offering his thoughts and feelings on his own situation caused Jay to reject him and call him a coward, he, Geir, is still the one who decides what he will offer in the future. perhaps there's some wisdom there, and it's fine to own that.]

I'm not. I know I can hang on, but you're going to have to be the one to tie yourself to me; I can't reach back there. It's up to you!
