[ Off the ride. Carolina allows herself a short laugh. Freelancer has been a hell of a rollercoaster. She knew it'd be tough, but... it's been tough in ways she never anticipated. Ways she wasn't prepared for.
And there were moments she wished it would all just stop, just for a little while. Just enough to ease the exhaustion, the constant push forward. The way hour ticked into hour into mission into days and weeks and months and nothing ever stopped and her life was always like that, always had been, but sometimes... sometimes she just wished she could hit pause long enough to catch her breath. Not that she could ever let that show.
She takes a deep breath, and lets it out slowly. Takes a minute for the rest of what York said to register. She doesn't know, is what she's saying. Didn't get far enough in her timeline to have done what her York did.

Doesn't mean she wouldn't have.
But Carolina's curious, now. ]
So, when did you get off it?
