Being told that thirty two is grossly old is a real kick to the ego. And says more than anything else could about the state of the place she comes from. Crap. He'd never think of the Commonwealth as somewhere to take someone to keep them safe, but hearing her utter amazement at people living to see three decades makes him want to bring her here if they ever find a permanent way home, or ask someone else on Moira to take her to their home. Anywhere but back where she came from, where it seemed inevitable to her that she'd die before thirty.

"It's still kind of dangerous here and too many people die too young, but living to thirty's not that weird here. And some people, who are epically awesome and really good at survival can live to be, like, almost fifty or more."
