"You too?"

The response isn't a challenge, his tone is back to the flat and disinterested tone that he often defaults to. That's her comforting speech? Get over it? Choose not to mourn? Yeah, that's great. Not like she's the first one to say it to him, but he'd expected better from someone his own age.
Maybe she was more fucked up than anyone knew.

Stan glances up at her, and fades back out of sight. It's tough to tell whether it's intentional or not. He doesn't acknowledge it either way. It's frustrating, and disappointing. He brushes invisibly past, probably on his way out, but he stops in the doorway. There's one more thing.

"She was here. Now she's not. I choose to care about that."
