For once, Elisa has come into the Nexus with company.  Or rather, company that's capable of speaking for herself.  The lavender female Gargoyle with her is slightly shorter and dressed in a much less modern style.



"Elisa?" she asks, blinking.  "This is... the Nexus?  All these people...  Are you sure it's safe?"

"As safe as can be, Angela.  Probably one of the safest places in the world."

Elisa turns to the Nexus at large.  "Nexus, this is Angela.  Angela, this is the Nexus.  I've been advised by more than a couple people here that, after some of our recent troubles, I should try bringing some of the Clan here, give them a chance to chill, maybe get some perspective other than 'everyone's out to get us.  So that's what I'm doing."

She considers something for a moment.  "And a question from me, I guess...    What's the best way to drop in one someone when they've been think you're missing or dead for a long time, and you've gone through a lot of changes?  Now that people know we exist, I've been thinking about looking up some of the people I knew, who weren't in on the Gargoyle secret."

And, of course, Angela has a question of her own.  She takes a moment to look around again, trying to gather her thoughts.  Finally, she speaks.  "How...  How do you deal with being hated and feared, just for being what you are?  I never knew such feelings could exist until I came to Manhattan and it frightens me..."
