"Let me get this straight. You're crying because you couldn't pick up a cool rock?"

Cole glares at Jay. His cheeks would have been tear-stained if he was capable of producing tears, but instead they're still green-tinted, cloudy, and translucent, just like the rest of him. Cole's not sure if it even counts as crying. It doesn't feel the same as crying when he was human, not that he cried that often anyway. He hadn't wanted anyone to see him. Why else would he have walked 7 miles from the Destiny's Bounty to stand on the shore alone without telling anyone where he was going? Apparently that wasn't enough though, because Jay had found him anyway. "You promised you wouldn't laugh."
