[After the events of this thread, Mami can be found in the Gardens. She's become very....popular with the local wildlife; there's a fox snuggling in her lap, rabbits nestling contentedly by her feet, a quail perching on her knee and a cat nuzzling her arm

So you went to save the Queen?

[headedforhope]

I tried to, yes.

[thewisechoice]

That's probably more important in this case.

[headedforhope]

I just couldn't very well leave her down there without doing my best to help.

Maybe it was a wasted effort, though.

[thewisechoice]

Mmm. If it's wasted, that's her fault.

[headedforhope]

You think so?....I wasn't expecting that kind of answer.

video;

[thewisechoice]

Yes. You put forth the effort, didn't you? She's in charge, so it's up to her to make what she can of it.

[headedforhope]

But can she really still be in charge? I got the impression that she was overthrown.

[Teresa glances down for a moment, suddenly pensive--though still completely calm.]

I don't think power changes hands that easily. Do you?

[headedforhope]

I used to not think so, but...it's not as if this place operates by the same rules I was raised to know.

[thewisechoice]

Mmm.

[Her smile seems a little realer, suddenly.]

It's nice. That you can say that, and not cling to rules you hated from another world. You have a good future here, Mami.

[headedforhope]

I don't belong to that world anymore. I don't think that there would be much point.

[Mami's own becomes, if anything, more fake- more generic and unchanging.]

At least it's a future.

[thewisechoice]

Oh. Do you think you're the only one who died...?
