I never thought that I would actually miss that city. But I really, really just want to go back right now.

Svetlana?

[balancedlight]

Please say this is Angelica.

[shesawdevils]

Aye, tis I!

Are you....you sound well. Are you?

[balancedlight]

I'm okay.

Are you?

[shesawdevils]

Alive. That seems to be the best assessment I can give at the moment.

[balancedlight]

Good. That's all I can hope for. Have you seen anyone else?

[shesawdevils]

No. I've not left this room.

Who have you seen?

[balancedlight]

Maxim. And I've spoken with Sue.

[shesawdevils]

Hopefully we'll find the others.

Do you know this ship, madam?

[balancedlight]

I do.

It's the Titanic. And it's called unsinkable.

But it will sink.

[shesawdevils]

And what of her passengers?

[balancedlight]

There aren't enough lifeboats. Most of them die. First Class women and children are the most likely to make it, depending on how quickly you get in line.

[shesawdevils]

[balancedlight]

But our names are not on the manifest, Angelica. This is not the history we know.

[shesawdevils]

No, that much is true. We are out of place here, and thus we cannot say for certain what will happen.

I do not think I am in first class, Svetlana, but even if I was I could not leave the others.

[balancedlight]

I'm not leaving. The place I would take is reserved for someone else. Someone who has a future.
