to heal a wound, you need to stop touching it
Zeph's got Deep Thoughts, and Vai's got a growing love of mai tai's - it explains why she's busy enjoying the cocktail while he's mulling over what he wants to say. It serves a dual purpose, giving him space to think, and not making a big deal of the fact that it's happening in the first place. When the question finally does come, Vai's brow furrows; she's not sure, honestly, and it shows on her face. "I don't know. If it happened now, with you or with Felix...? Yeah, I think I would. But too much water has passed under that bridge, for me."
She can only tell him her personal feelings on the matter - that doesn't say anything for Zeph. Vai smiles and nudges her shoulder against his, as if in reassurance. "What makes you say that?" she asks. "The Torcher kids love you. And you've been amazing with Felix. I can imagine it pretty well, thank you very much."
