Personal experience trumps the theoretical every time, for him, in situations like this. He doesn't trust the untested, not with his mind, not with his - well, his metaphorical heart. Obviously exceptions for the real one have been made.
And right now he doesn't even want to bunny trail off into 'what couldn't you look at', because he can't keep up with a conversation like that right now and doesn't feel like having one in the first place, and he's still working out how he does feel about the proposal she's just put forth. It's basically just terrifying, but he's sure there's more than that. There's got to be, because he's tired of doing this, and maybe she's right and maybe she's not but she has a decent point either way and that's one of the most dangerous places to be in. Grey, grey, grey, but someone's talking sense - it doesn't help you decide what you're going to do at all. ] How long did it take?
