Cosima doesn't look uncomfortable, per se, but it's a question she wishes she had a better answer for. "She and I weren't actually together yet, when it happened. So, um. I mean, it's not like I'm thinking Oh no, I can't talk to Herian about this, but it's not a topic that's... come up, really?"

Herian has bad dreams too, after all. Easier to comfort one another in the moment than to probe at the underlying wounds.

"I mean, I don't bring it up, so. I guess that's on me, a little. What about you, have you talked to anybody? Beyond, like, the healers making sure we're not mutating or anything." (Maybe that's just Cosima, since she's seeing the healers regularly anyway.)
