There's that word again - normal. Trying to make her normal, like she's not any more. Because she's not any more. Her whole world has been changing ever since he came back from that cave, so maybe this or something like it is just an inevitable part of that. And it could be worse. Insurance is a real bitch in this economy.

She still wants to say I am normal, but she can't quite get it out. Even their version of normal has been off by a few beats, and for longer than just this. It's not just for herself that she's been doing research on reputable therapists who might be able to handle the context of the sessions. (In fact, it's mainly not for herself.)

“I have another piece of paper that lists the things even genius humans need to function,” like sleep, for instance, her rising eyebrows helpfully imply. Just saying, hypocritically. And not thinking about what this might mean about what she does and doesn't need to function any more, because that's too weird for this hour and anyway, it definitely involves caffeine. “I don't know if I want you poking around in my delicate system on Americano and nerves.”
