As long as we're living and breathing, there's more we can do. We just have to be strong enough. captain . earther ACTION TEXT HANDWAVE

[Nathan seems a little embarrassed, though whether that's because James thinks he's interesting or because James's enthusiasm makes it obvious Nate's talked Elena up is anyone's guess, however]

[whatever the actual reasoning, though, he tells her:] We may have talked about you a couple of times. [a beat] You know. If your ears were burning or whatever.

[She smiles a bit at that, because she never knows what to assume Nate tells anyone.]

Glad to know I've been an interesting topic of conversation. I just hope I live up to my reputation.

[ Raises a brow at Nathan. ]

I'm guessing this was why you wanted to meet?

[ It's a perfect reason in his book. ]

[it's been good stuff. mostly. he may have gotten a little maudlin there, talking about her after Caroline disappeared, but mostly good things!]

[either way, he nods, smiling. as much as he never would have wanted to have any of his people here for how much of a joke it is a lot of the time, he can't say he's not glad she's here]

I figured introducing my wife was a good idea, yeah.

[he wants his friends and his friends to be friends]

[howmuchtrouble]

It's always a good idea.

[And a good note for the future, as it would get him into less trouble.]

But it really is nice to meet you. I have many questions about space, but I'll try not to be ridiculous about it.

[duderaider]

I absolutely was ridiculous about it, so.

[okay, not really, but he can't help but joke]
