It's a conversation, though not one either of them enjoyed, and they neither of them really act on it. Between this, and the fact that for Colby Evan's his ideal, while Evan's answer seems more an explanation of why they're together than an articulation of his ideal, just makes me really, really sad for the two of them, as it doesn't sound like they'd end up with the happy ending I want for them.

I also think I should stop reading this, and go to bed, because I'm *clearly* reading far too hard into them :) This was a fun insight though.
