When York pulls her forward she goes to him willingly, burying her face in the crook of his neck. It feels selfish to take this comfort from him but he's reminded her time and again that it's okay to be a little selfish sometimes.

"I had a new one implanted on Chorus, otherwise this probably would have happened a lot sooner." And wouldn't that have been a disaster. As inconvenient as the timing of this is, Carolina is grateful they've had a chance to figure things out. "Just... keep saying things will be alright and that will be enough." It was going to be the only way to defuse the constant stream of worst-case scenarios that keeps going through her head.
