Elizabeth just listened, staying standing in the doorway. She could understand Ethan's thoughts... Maybe not fully, but she knew well enough what he meant. She could understand enough to know that, even if there was something to fix him, that he wouldn't have accepted it. Giving a small shake of her head, she stepped forward and sat on the edge of the bed beside Ethan, looking over at him with the same almost curious look in her eyes. But this time, it wasn't as much curiosity as it was something else.<br/><br/>"I understand." She stated what she had been thinking aloud, placing a hand lightly on his arm as if to try and emphasize or show her words further. "I can understand- Or at least to the point that I can at least think I do. You're right- These things are who you are. I wouldn't want them to leave, either."
