[Vander laughs. That’s not quite how he would have put it, but…] Think that sums it up pretty well.
[Another sip of the drink, another moment to consider the question. It really is a lot easier to think about now than it had been. Seems he made the right call in giving this place a shot, outlandish as it seemed.]
But the ups probably outweigh the downs. Hate the thought of all the time I missed out on with them, but… [He sighs, gives a shrug of one shoulder.] At least they’re here, right? One less thing to worry about with the whole situation back home.
["Situation," as if that was an adequate word for the supposed destruction of their worlds. He sets his drink down, idly drums his fingers on the bartop beside it as he fixes his focus back on Amos again.]
Suppose I can’t complain when I’m luckier than most, there. You been through this more than once? Hell of a thing.
[His earlier words seemed to imply it, at least. Must be pretty damn stalwart to navigate all this twice and be so nonchalant about it.]
