[ It might be the wrong Jason, but that doesn't stop her from reaching out a quick hand, moving to snag the wrist of the hand that had gone to reclaim the coffee. It's not a hard grip, but it is inexorable. She's had plenty of time to find the perfect balance between overwhelming and unmovable, and exercises that now. If he's going to disappear soon, fine. She has little business with this version of him. But he's not leaving quite yet.
She keeps her gaze turned away for a moment more, collecting herself. There's still a low, simmering anger in it when she finally turns her eyes back toward Jason, but it reads as something much closer to determination than violence. Any lingering tears don't dampen it in the slightest. ]
I'm not going to let you — let him — run anymore. There's been enough of that. You've helped me realize it.
[ Her face softens a little, not quite into something remorseful, but it might be close. ]
And I'm sorry, too. You really didn't need to hear about any of my problems.
[ She has the faint idea that she should at least try to leave things painted in a better light, for the sake of not throwing their early relationship into that much chaos. Who knows how this encounter could change things for them, after all. But if it's impossible... well, she's tried, and it's not her timeline it'll be altering. ]
