[ The first few weeks in Olympia had been rough, to say the least. But she had wanted to tough it out and adapt. Other people had, Charles had. There was no reason she couldn't do the same. Some days it had been easy enough to keep her walls up, keep things under control. Other days, the feel of control slipping had been both stressful and worrisome.
So, while it had been her first taste of Independent Adult Life, Jean was glad she was getting to move in with Charles. She had lived with him several years of her life and moving back in with him as comforting as getting some distance from the city center.
Everything she had fitted into one bag so she had both hands free to carry anything he needed her to. Giving a nod, her smile is small but one of the few she's felt like giving since before the attack. ]

Do you need me to carry anything?
