"Yeah, okay. I'll take your word for it." Ratchet's vehemence is reassuring, his explanation of going on in line with what York figured was happening but put into proper terminology. It's going to get better. He just needs to hold out until it does, somehow. York leans back against Ratchet, trying to put together an answer to his question. He settles on, "You. Having something real to focus on." Because he knows that's what's making the difference -- and if he's honest he's scared for Ratchet to let go, as strange as it is to be touched. "It hasn't stopped, I'm just.. ignoring it better I guess."
