[ In some ways, it would be a nice thing to know, just as much as it would be another sad thing. And not because it would be one more piece to the puzzle or anything like that but because moments of brightness seem so few and far between for him and even the slightest blip on the radar in that capacity would be a welcome acknowledgement. That's overlooking the fact that those kinds of memories are often marred by what comes later, and maybe it's all a good thing that he doesn't divulge more. Claire doesn't ask.

She does look somewhat disappointed, though it's mostly exaggerated. She huffs and dramatically blows some of the shorter pieces of hair crowding around her face away from the curve of her cheek, rolling her eyes. ]

[ Claire Bennet is every eleven-year-old who read a book and never got a letter. Except she's nineteen. And deciding that instead of sitting she's going to wander around the small space following the reaction to that previous line of conversation. Blank is still blank, and it's telling in its own right, even if it's not overt in its translation. Eventually she picks up that scarf. ]
