[ Lots of things. There's an urge to just spout out a lot of words. But his mind filters on instinct ]
I find her attractive. [ He's still very human in that regard. He gives that honest, sheepish look people do when they admit that. ]
She's intimidating but seems kind underneath the tough exterior. [ A pause ] She reminds me of Alison - Hawke's woman, back in the War - and how even as calculating and stern as she was, she loved every single one of us. [ Another pause ] Even me.
[ He takes a long drag of his cigarette and lets out a long puff ] She's a soldier. [ And the next words are said half-jokingly to try to lighten the mood. Although it's still true. ] And she's a lot closer to my age than every other woman I've met. [ He tilts his head slightly to the right with a look on his face that says "I still am 122." ]
