Is it weird that I'm nervous? [He looks away, at nothing, collecting his thoughts, though his expression is more wistful than anything.] I'm different now. And it's going to be different now. I had that groove I was in, avoiding everything back home, and a groove here, and it's time to go back, but it feels...

Like going home - and not. There are familiar things, sure, like the Warriors and my family, but it's also more alien now than everything up in space.
