She can feel it as he speaks, the pain that sits so deeply in the body it can be felt in the bones and blood. It makes her chest tighten, her heart race, her face pale. What Thor went through is far more traumatic, his loss more visceral than her own, but she understands the struggle of seeing death like that over and over. It brings up memories of the last time she watched someone slip away in front of her, but she forces the thoughts back and out of her mind with a small shake of her head and focusing on words to help Thor.

"What happened that day was terrible. I truly can't imagine seeing or living through something like that." How to phrase this next part without sounding like every person she hated listening to while she was working through things? "Seeing it again and feeling everything you did that day is normal, I think. I've been through similar. It's always going to hurt, but you can learn to live with it if you address why it still comes to mind as often as it does." She tilts her head ever so slightly, her expression somber. "I suspect you already know and aren't ready to face it, if you're bringing it up to me now."
