[ over the past couple of hours, john has been making a lot of apologies. scully's was the one he was dreading most of all – she rescued him from a hornet and how did he repay her? by waving a knife in front of her face and demanding her help. he's still writhing from the memory.
so when she responds with video, he's a little surprised. heaving a sigh, he switches on the camera as well with a sheepish look. he can't hide behind text forever and, although he tries to put on a brave face, his eyes are red-rimmed with fatigue and misery. it's been a long week. ]
So what you're saying is that... you're used to all this. [ his knowing smile is hidden behind his linked fingers. clearing his throat, he focuses on a corner of the screen instead of looking straight at her. ] I wanted to apologise though. It's like you said... I was susceptible to whatever that storm did and acted out. It might've been better if it was mind control; it'd remove the possibility of this happening again.
[ with a sniff, he manages to pull his eyes away from the corner and looks at scully. ]
