She wondered at Jack's ability to section his life into books, bound and supposedly closed and set aside. Rather than the pages and chapters of her own. Was he truly, actually done with what happened before? Reinette could not help but doubt that.

The surprise was that in genuine moments he seemed convinced that he was able to. She thought them both far too self aware for that.

"Yes, Jack. You are here."

The corner of her mouth lifted, thought it could hardly be called a smile. Merely something in her reacting to something in him. The small ways in which people hold sway over one another.

She did not withdraw from his touch even as her body was still filled with coiled tension. Her eyes met his.

"Do not apologize, Jack. I would rather know than not."
