[Something about that little detail warms his heart and stabs at it at the same time. They had talked a lot during their missions and he feels like he knows her inside out in the face of danger but their time had been cut so horribly short he feels like there are still so many things about their daily lives he never learned about her.
He feels another wave of conflicting emotions, sadness over losing Peter, worry that he might not come back, fear that he won't have a chance to get to know him better either.]
You and my mother should get together sometime. She makes these little embroidered towels? I have one with my name on it, and a little book?
She'd love that. [Talking about his mom, talking about going back (together) just adds to the rawness and after a moment Flynn slumps, leaning slightly against Nicole.] I'd love that, too.
I used to talk to Peter about her. And he'd tell me about his mom.
Do you think so? [ It's only after she's mentioned getting back that she remembers Flynn's confession and what is apparently waiting for her in the future. Still, she's choosing to believe that the future can be changed, that it isn't set in stone. ]
The three of us should also go out for dinner. [ She's not sure why she wants that, but it would be nice to spend time with Flynn and his mother in a relaxed setting like a restaurant. ]
I haven't talked with Peter very much, but he does seem nice, and kind, too.
Absolutely. Go out for dinner? Man, you have no idea how happy you'd make her. She'll have you over for tea, too. And for cake and embarrassing baby photos. My suffering would never end.
[It could not be more tongue-in-cheek. Flynn would gladly sit through a year of embarrassing baby pictures if it meant sitting with Nicole and his Mom on the same couch.]
You can? [He barks out a small laugh.] Please enlighten me because I have absolutely no clue. [This whole friendship thing is so weird and complicated.]

I do. I won't be entering any sewing contests, but I know enough about it to get by.

Well, I would like to get to know your mother better. When we get back, that's something we should do.

I can see why you're friends.
