[For a moment, Emma is frozen, feet leaden and unable to propel herself forward. It's like seeing a ghost, some hopeful hallucination, but it comes with an overwhelming sense of guilt. It's been well over two years, but not a day goes by that she doesn't think about how poorly that core operation had gone. There are talks of trying again, and maybe with the proper planning it can be done, but some days--
Some days she thinks the risk outweighs the reward, and she knows there are others who are absolutely unwilling to consider it. It's part of why she'd gone along with Dean's stupid archangel plan in the first place.
She blinks and Lena is still standing there. Waving. Smiling. Like the last five years never happened at all.]
