"Viktor, my last boss was a talking goldfish. I don't think weird has the same definition for us as it does for other people," Five says, mildly amused at the thought for a moment, however dead A.J. Carmichael may be now.
Either way, it's only a temporary reprieve from the seriousness of the conversation. Of course he's thought about it. Constantly since either of them first decided to actually acknowledge that they had feelings for one another. He thought about it on days he was alone in an empty Darrow, even if he wasn't quite sure he'd make it back to the present at all.
Five is aware that things have changed slightly since that day he jumped back in time. But in the ways that matter, they haven't changed at all.
His slight smile falls and he takes a breath before he speaks again.
"We're... we're taking a risk here. And if it all goes wrong... I don't think I can handle losing you again."
