[ a future. his world, according to him, but despite the ring she wears on a necklace, lois doesn't try for more than this: the hug, his presence. he hasn't leaned in to kiss her and that's as telling as what he remembers and what he doesn't, what happened before he came here and what hasn't happened yet.
lois is determined and she's pushy, but it doesn't quite extend to this. ]
Do you want the long or the short version?
[ she's managed to write it all up in an article. she knows how to tell this story even if it hurts.
and they've only just sat down on the couch, but lois gets up again almost immediately. ] Do you want a drink? [ there's not much in her fridge, but there's a bottle of red wine next to it that she's going for now. ]
