It's been a couple weeks since this hole in the world had shown up in Darrow. Han had considered crossing over into it, had come awfully close more than once, but he's heard stories about people meeting their doubles and that's pretty much all that's kept him from taking that step. He'll never admit he's worried about what he might find, that he doesn't want to face a possible alternate version of himself that's either far more successful or just a complete idiot. Han doesn't want to have to deal with either one.
Then there's the possibility of who else he might find there. Another Luke or Rey or Poe, maybe even a Leia, and it all seems a little too daunting. For a man who's spent his whole life smuggling and fighting and getting out of sticky situations, it's stupid to be worried about something like this, but Han hasn't been able to overcome that block. Until today.
Today, he'd gotten out of bed, made himself a coffee, and walked straight to the cemetery. What's changed, he's not too sure. All he knows is there's no way he won't regret if he doesn't cross over at least once to the other side, just to see what he might find. There are a few other people crowded around the breach, maybe having the same kinds of thoughts he is, and that's when he sees her.
"Karen." He calls out her name, heading toward her with a hand lifted, then nods toward the breach when he's close enough to her. "You going through, too? Guess I shouldn't be too surprised." Han flashed her a smile. "We like getting into trouble, right? Doesn't seem like there's any better way than doing this."
