It's obviously trying to keep people out. I just wonder why.

[darkart]

Well, maybe she's not a ghost and the drive is trying to prevent itself from being blown up by a woman whom it hasn't managed to lose or kill yet.

[ Still side-eying. Don't think he missed that bit about people who're heat resistant. ]

[pushfall]

That still doesn't explain why this is the first anyone has seen or heard from her.

[ Well. Only kinda. ]

[darkart]

As far as we know.

[pushfall]

I'm going to try talking to her.

[darkart]

To slow her down or to tell her to go ahead and break it?

[pushfall]

I don't think I know enough about this place to tell her to do one or the other, but maybe she knows... I don't know. Something.

[darkart]

She seems to know what the hell's going on with the ship, but isn't saying out of disbelief that we don't.

[ Which is UNHELPFUL, Charlotte. ]

[pushfall]

Maybe she just needs someone to calm her down long enough to take a breath.

[darkart]

If you were her, would you trust anyone trying to 'calm you down'?

[pushfall]

I wouldn't be her.

[darkart]

No final call before the finishing blow, or no noble sacrifices?

[pushfall]

You ask the hard questions. Teacher instinct?

[darkart]

That was an easy one.

[pushfall]

I don't know. I would find another way.

[darkart]

You may well get to.

[pushfall]

Sounds like you don't have much faith in Charlotte.

[darkart]

I have more faith in the ability of others to get in the middle of things.

[pushfall]

Meddling is the only way anything really gets done.

[darkart]

I approach chaos slightly more organized.

[pushfall]

So... no final call before the finishing blow, or no noble sacrifice?

[darkart]

Neither.

[pushfall]

Same.
