Phase Eight: Recrimination

[emorangerpink]

[Laura's in the brig.

It's at her own insistence, as soon as she was awake enough to insist. Once the medics were okay with letting her out of their sight, she went in to a cell. She's staying there until as much has been done to confirm she doesn't have any more surprises buried in the back of her mind as was done for Cheng, and then some. And it's noticeable to anyone who's used to her appearance that her ever-present amplifier is not on her wrist.

If you want to talk to her, it might take a while. Aside from the exhaustion of the fight, she's spending some of her time awake curled up in tears or otherwise unresponsive. Still - if you're patient, or time your visit right, she'll be able to speak, if you have something to say.]

[Laura twitches.]

...You can tell that?

On a limited scale. LYNX pilots are psychic after all... have to be to pilot a NEXT with efficiency due to their speed. That involves peering into the future and reading the other pilot's mind as best you can while they try to do the same to you. It's like mind chess.

My abilities aren't perfect, though. There may be something so deep that even I can't see it, but for now, I can't see anything on my end...

[emorangerpink]

...Thank you.

[Not that she looks like she knows quite how to feel about the information.]

It should suffice for now...

[He stands up and tosses the gun into Laura's cell.]

Roger will suffer... he will pay dearly. If we're going to make him do that, we must trust each other. You have my gun...

[And he starts to walk off. Not too far though for Laura to say something though.]

[Laura stares at the empty gun, shaking her head slowly.]
