[While Gansey watches Noah, Noah watches him. There's no sign of recognition, no sour expression at the knife, at the thought of who gave it to Noah and who taught him to use it.
He's not wrong, though, Noah isn't violent. He'd rather run than fight, and if it's his own life on the line and he can't run, he'd rather die than fight. He's good at dying. The only time he can bring himself to raise a hand in defense is for his friends. Ronan and the nightmare creature, Adam and the bear. Now Gansey and the weird cat thing.]
Gansey... Adam, Ronan and I ... we've been away from Henrietta for eight months. We've been here for four of them.
[He remembers what the Technicians in Harborview had said - that when they left there, they'd go home and no time at all would have passed, it would be like they'd never left. It wasn't right, they didn't go home when they left Harborview, the corrupted ley line had seen to that. But Gansey is saying he saw them yesterday, Gansey who clearly has no memory of here or Harborview.]
