It’s not mediocre and really is that far fetched that after all the bullshit they’ve been through, they dont want angst/pain anymore? That if their relationship is where they can have some peace and quiet, they will take it. With the ever there certainty that they are still very important to each other, Juls regrets it and all is talked out, but muted because everything ELSE hurts and they dont trust to let it free, it might just crash and burn for the wrong reasons. Is like hibernating of sort

That’s a very fair point. They may simply not want to hash all that out or even be in the place to do so. If anything, a quiet talk about where they are now might be the most “them” thing.
