You're dreaming about each other's deaths. Some of you are dreaming about deaths on the Barge.

That means some of you might dream about deaths that I caused. [ Allison, Touko. ]

I'm a killer. I can't change that. But I'm sorry for what I did, and I try not to hurt people anymore.

...that's all.

[ He comes back on later. ]

In the greenhouse, I'll be making a cloud of Soothing. It should calm more turbulent emotions. If anyone wants that, you can come there.

[She's spent most of the flood trying to distract herself. There's not much she can do about the memories; they're all in the past, and she doubts dredging it up again will be helpful.

But she can't bear it, this time. She woke up maybe half an hour ago, and there are still tears staining her cheeks.]

Yes. Please.

[ It's not pleasant, hearing her like that. ]

Then come up.

Thanks. [She cuts the feed, and takes a moment to gain a bit more composure before heading to the greenhouse. When she arrives, the tear tracks are gone. Her hair is pulled back into a low, neat ponytail.

She doesn't smile, as she steps inside, but her shoulders relax. Her defences are completely lowered, and she lets herself feel relieved.

The pain is still there, but it isn't overwhelming.]

Zane? [It's a gentle call, as she steps through the flowers, resonating with desperate gratitude.]

[ The Soothing is definitely palpable as soon as Jean enters the greenhouse. ]

I'm this way.

[ Taking care of some fruit trees that are stubbornly blooming way out of season. They're confused by the greenhouse. ]

[She lets her senses lead her, and she does smile when she sees him, wobbly but warm.

She's surrounded by life, and he's curating it, and she clings to that.]

...Can I help?

[ He takes the question wrong, thinking it's about the Soothing and not about the plants. He blinks. ]

Can you?

[She looks up, eyes widening as she realises.]

I...meant the plants.

But actually, I probably could.
