Adam managed a smile in return. "I'm sorry if I kept you up," he said, softly. "At least for something not so fun..."
He needed that reassurance more than he could say, more than he could pull in and process for the moment.
"I'm not going anywhere," he promised with a slight frown. "We can talk...I imagine we could talk about this over and over and again and again for a very long time and not hit the bottom of it all. I..."
He picked up one of the take out boxes blindly, not caring what it really was at the moment. "Let's...you had a full day at work. Let's eat, maybe you can tell me something of popular culture I've met and why there are quite so many channels on the television now...and we can just...be."
He wanted to be, wanted to find his center again, to get back from Kensei to Adam and shake off some of that until he knew who he was again, to have that talk, to find that certainty, somewhere back inside of him.
