[Poor Elaine looks heartbroken as the video comes on. Behind her is Mhairi's empty box, looking small and discarded in a corner. She brushes some hair out of her face and leans back in her chair.]Amazingly, that wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. It's amazing what the human imagination can come up with sometimes

There are no rules. It does what it wants.

[demiurgos_girl]

Then what are we supposed to do? Even if we do figure out how the place works, it'll just change.

[hurricanebomber]

You just have to adapt to it.

[demiurgos_girl]

Until the end of eternity, right? Maybe there isn't a way out of here. [Though she doesn't really believe that.]

[hurricanebomber]

If there isn't, then where do people go when they leave?

[demiurgos_girl]

No, I mean a way out that we can use. Not a random coincidence.

[hurricanebomber]

I don't think there is.

[demiurgos_girl]

...I haven't tried to find one for a long time.

[hurricanebomber]

There have been a lot of smart or powerful people here. If there were one, someone would have found it.

[demiurgos_girl]

It feels too much like giving up.

[hurricanebomber]

What else can you do? Just surviving is hard enough without wasting time looking for an exit that's not there.

[demiurgos_girl]

...

I hope we have a nice event soon.

[hurricanebomber]

That'd be a relief.

[demiurgos_girl]

A much needed one.

Did your mirror take anything?

[hurricanebomber]

My notes.

[demiurgos_girl]

Uh-oh. How long have you been working on them?
