[Margot doesn't bother to announce her return to life; there is too much on her mind and what she wants to do most is to see her sister and make sure that she is okay

( since managing to navigate from her room, elizabeth has simply taken to sitting at the top of the stairs; deciding against trying to make it down without her sight for the moment. sort of tilting her head in the direction of the voice, so they did come back...

she'll nod absently, speaking up softly. )

I'll have to agree with your last point.

[resurrectinto]

[At the sound of Elizabeth's voice, Margot carefully shifts her sister so that she's lying on the couch and covers her with a blanket before heading off to find not!daughter.]

Elizabeth you... made it...

[She's found her and is staring up the stairs in horror.]

[generose]

( not that she can tell, she's just moving to tilt her head down and play with her sling. )

... Somehow. Guess everything, didn't quite go back to normal.

[resurrectinto]

What the FUCK did they do to you?!

[She's coming up the stairs now to sit next to her, carefully putting an arm around her shoulders and leaning in to inspect her face, her arm.]

[Hughes frowns.]

Her eyesight's gone...?

[And a moment of realization. He didn't expect her to work with the others in the grand factory plan. He was shocked.]

...Dammit, Nadia...

Margot, did she say anything? How bad is it?

[resurrectinto]

Yeah, it's fucking gone.

[She nearly drops the phone, her hands are shaking that bad.]

She said -- she said something about a factory explosion. Working to help, as a look-out or something, I don't fucking know. They took her to be 're-educated' and when she came back, she was...

[best_papa_evar]

Shit.

[He bows his head, clutching the phone tightly.]

...She's one of the ones who kept her injury.

Dammit all...

How's she doing?

[resurrectinto]

She'll be fine. I'm making sure of it.

[Her voice is so damned resolute it could border on terrifying, almost.]

[electrowhipit]

... What happened?

[resurrectinto]

They blinded her, for helping in blowing up the factory or something. Stupid fuckers.

[electrowhipit]

And she's still blind?

I don't get it. I thought when the town goes back to normal, we all go back to normal.

[resurrectinto]

I guess it doesn't happen all the time.

[a_gentle_boy]

You're OK . . . I'm glad.

[resurrectinto]

They can shoot me all I want, but I'm not going to stay down.

How are you, Lucas?

[a_gentle_boy]

You're alright and everything? You're not hurt at all?

. . . I'm OK. They broke my hand, but that was it.

[resurrectinto]

One piece, nothing missing.

Shit, kid. I'm really sorry to hear that... It's not -- is it still broken?

[braided_icarus]

Took the words right out of my mouth, Margot.

[resurrectinto]

Fucking thank you.

[braided_icarus]

No idea what the Pitt is, but I am sick of everything Al has gone through, dammit.

[resurrectinto]

It's where, er, bad people go when they die? Eternal torment, whatever. I think... it's called Hell here or something?

I forgot you have family here too... is he okay?
