I couldn't get the boy to kill me but I wore his jacket for the longest time
It's been a long time since Nate was last in the ocean like this, and even then he is missing a lot of the safety nets he had had, namely a boat nearby, and a life jacket. They're all but sitting ducks, if something happens, but so far, the night is clear, and the silence between them is growing increasingly comfortable.
At least until her voice invades Nate's head, making him jump a small amount. He'd forgotten about that, though it does seem particularly useful here. I don't know if I'd say there was a story. It's all faux modesty and jokes, until Sam's name comes up. Nate forces a laugh through the mental link. There's not even that anymore. I haven't been with him since... fuck, just after Fiat Lux? It's clear he can't even be bothered to think back that long, not with how much has happened recently.
