[Cosima listens intently, struck by why Chloe and Sarah get along so well. That desire to run away, it's not something Cosima's ever had.]

Who's Rachel?

[helladoomed]

Uh. She's... [Her ex wasn't right, it wasn't enough. But...]

Rachel is my...I loved her. [It's a quiet admittance, but completely honest. Even the anger of things she had learned about Rachel couldn't make that fade.]

We were gonna have a future and shit, go out and...I don't know. Live. See the world.

What happened to her?

[Cosima pauses after asking the question, wondering if that was the right thing to say. Maybe it was too personal.]

[helladoomed]

[There's a hitch in her voice when she answers. Wounds like these would close eventually right? Maybe?...]

She died.

[Once she said it, Chloe seemed to...shrink a little in her chair, and she almost immediately conjured up a joint and lit it, taking a long puff. Ah, 'dealing.']

[Cosima pulls her into a hug immediately. She hadn't meant to bring up a bad subject, especially after the day Chloe had had. Hopefully, she won't mind if the clone hugs continue.]

I'm so sorry, man.

[helladoomed]

[She hadn't expected that hug, but she didn't mind it either, especially with the sudden melancholy. She sucked in a slow breath.]

I just try not to think about it much, you know?

[doubleblind]

Not a terrible plan. But if you ever wanna talk about it, we're here for you, okay?

[Cosima hopes that not too much, that it won't scare Chloe off.]

[helladoomed]

Yeah, okay.

[She sighs, shifting a bit in the hug so she can take a puff of her joint.]

I'll probably just do my 'drink, get high and repress' deal. It's worked so far.

[It's half a joke, at least.]

[doubleblind]

And as great as that coping strategy is... My offer's always open.
