    "Well, uh... I kinda need to pee."

    "Wait- where are we going?"

    "Something else - my doppelganger is mute, and now I'm *cough* temporarily *cough* blind. Just found that ironic and a little funny."

    "It's... It's nice." She turned her head to where she'd heard Jar Man's voice coming from and smiled sweetly. After a moment, she broke out laughing.

    "Not funny, just... With everyone in the clinic, I just... I feel more at home than I ever did... well, at home."

    Aventine kept laughing as well. This was the best she'd felt in a long while. She'd been at peace, sometimes even content, but this... This was the first time she'd felt truly happy for years.

    She laughed again, this time for real. "You gonna be my seeing-eye Jar Man while we're here?" "It's.... Okay, yeah. It's pretty bad."

    Aventine took a deep breath and did her best to hold back her tears as she spoke.
