[Location: Sanctuary For All] & [Visual: Accidental]

Tracy was just starting to get a feel for this strange, new place. She had made a few connections, chatted with a couple of people from back home, and done a bit of exploring on her own. True to the promises of others, there didn't seem to be a way to leave. However, as the days began to pass, Tracy found herself uncertain if she even wanted to

Peter was on his way from Gabriel's room. Though when his tablet came on and he saw Tracy turn into puddle, he stopped in his tracks. When did Tracy get to the Sanctuary? Even better of a question: why did he miss it? Probably because he had spent the last week next to a bedside. Though he would of thought that Magnus would of informed them someone else was showing up. Than again, Magnus had the habit of locking herself up in her office or lab lately.

It took him a moment to find the room that she was in. After all, the Sanctuary was a huge place. He debated for a moment before opening the door at the room. The light from the tablet was still rather dim, but he used his own as a light to find where Tracy would have hit the floor as water.

Slowly he squatted down in front of the shimmering water on the floor.

"Hey, Tracy."

For a moment the pain had stopped. At least, pain as she understood it in her human form. As a liquid, things were different. Emotions still existed but were either multiplied or diminished greatly. In this case the loss she was feeling had been diminished and she was loathe to face it again.

Which is why she entertained the brief thought of not responding to Peter when he appeared at her edge. The liquefied woman considered simply following the microscopic grooves and nicks in the floor until she found a drain that would take her away from anyone and everyone. But, ultimately she opted to stay where she was.

She ebbed to and fro for a few seconds as though pondering her next move. It would be so easy to reach out and grab Peter right now. Possibly drown him and leave him for Nathan to find. It would be quite a way to get revenge on the man who'd had her imprisoned, there was no doubt about that. Yet she would also be attacking someone who didn't deserve it. That would make her no better than the bastards that had attacked her

That was just how Peter was. Despite the way he had been acting recently, until he had met the man on the bus. Leaving himself open for attacks of any kind. People couldn't be open with you until you were open. And leaving himself closed off from the world ultimately did more harm than good.

He intently watched the waving puddle, even as it took form again into the woman he had expected to see. A smile formed on his face, as if to congratulate her on her transformation. Tracy was learning to control her power. It might be a little slow, but it was better than never learning how to. Even at her harsh tone he still smiled at her.

"Just checking up on you." He explained, holding the tablet in his hands. Gabriel had woken up with a start as well. "And, you know, giving a welcome. Missed you moving into the Sanctuary, apparently."

If Tracy were being completely honest she would have to admit that some part of her had missed Peter's unfailing optimism. Even when life was kicking him in the teeth while simultaneously spitting on him, he still managed to seem okay. And when he wasn't okay, he did whatever he felt he had to do to make it better. Again, if she were being completely honest, Tracy would also admit that she was a bit envious that he could do such a thing without falling to the bitterness and anger that seemed to fuel her most of the time
