Fareeha had been left with a few things to think about, in light of her mission with Junkrat and a later conversation with Jack. She's inundated with conflicting emotions, none of them strong enough to rule out their resisting counterpart, but enough that there's a constant muzz in her head that she's trying to feel out. She had enjoyed her time with Junkrat, but should she have? Is she letting her guard down too much? But, she's never felt quite so at ease with herself in a long while. The mission itself offered some moral hesitance, and while she went through with it in the end, she wondered what that meant about the stability of her own morals, and what Legion might hold for her in the future.

She's not quite hiding, but she's spending a bit more time at the coffee house in her habitat than on the Legion ship. Feel free to hit her up for a conversation or a free coffee or tea (or milk tea boba, the newest item on the menu!).

It's some flowery speech he gives her and it takes a moment for her to suss out his meaning; it feels like she's solving a riddle at every turn. She thinks on his words, and on letting go of the past.

There's so much there, dug in like a tick, and it's hard to let go of because the future is so uncertain. She will, however, make an attempt; she resumes the position, closes her eyes, and pulls in and releases a deep breath.

Come on, Fareeha; let it go.

"Breathe in on the count of four. Hold it for another four. Then exhale on a count of eight. While doing that, imagine all your problems leaving you."

It was a simple statement, one that most would put forward to absolve stress. But it had uses in all environments, including their current one.

She'll follow his instructions, breathing in, holding, and breathing out while carefully counting.

"Good."

It was a small compliment for the moment.

"Now tell me, what are you thinking of now?"

[justice_from_above]

"Counting."

Hey, she's being honest.

"I ... wish I could see my mother again. We've got a lot to talk about."

[touchmydragon]

"What do you like about your mother, Fareeha?"

It was progress. Good progress. She was thinking of the future rather than worrying about the past. Which meant that they could move ahead and hopefully center the soldier into someplace that was good as oppposed to negative.
