She was right. It hadn't been pretty, then again, neither had she been when she went through the same thing. They'd both been messes. It was different for them, having someone from home - Paradisa yanked their emotions around so much that it was ultimately too easy to lean on those you already felt something for, and losing them was especially hard. Losing them back to a world you knew you could never go back to was even harder.
If Meg was more the type to sugar-coat things, she'd say she was sure Kate would never lose Rick. But the truth was she could at any moment, so she just took her glass when she emptied it and filled it to the brim again.
"Just gotta make the most of it while you've got it, y'know? This place is pretty good for that, at least." And it was. It had been. At least she'd always have that.
