The pounding noise stops.
Juliet finds a corner to scrunch herself into, and she cries into her knees.
Sherlock gently detaches himself from the other two and goes over to Juliet and sits down beside her.
"Bella Cullen, Empress Regnant of the Golden Empire in the world that I have named Aurum," says Golden. "My nickname when there's more than one of me around is Golden. That one is Juliet. There are lots of several people, including you, and not all of them stem from forks due to the afterlife - I've met one other instance of you in particular, but Shell Bell is familiar with more."
And he hugs the not-vampire Sherlock.
[I don't see how you can stand to touch me, after -]
"You're welcome. We're going to see about conquering the afterlife and installing something less appalling. You all got out easy, not having been processed yet."
[Because you are not she,] says Sherlock. [And she is not you. And it does not please me to see you so unhappy.]
[The... the fallout shouldn't be about me feeling guilty. How are you, what do you need?]
[I am... not well,] he says. [And I don't know what I need. But I know I would rather be with you than anywhere else right now.]
He may notice that she doesn't have her old strength anymore.
But that's all right. They finally found a mint.
Golden starts making notes in the Bellbook. When she's finished - it only takes a few seconds to describe those of the events that are for public consumption - she offers the book to Tony and non-vampire Sherlock collectively. "A summary, albeit one skewed towards the interests of my template and not either of yours."
While Golden is still here, they should probably deal with some practical matters, but they don't have to deal with those right this second.
[I can't believe she - I thought she'd be me. At least a bit me. Golden only knew a little - was there any me there, at all, or am I just entirely my soul, or...?]
[...She had hints of you,] he says. [If I had never met you before, I would have found her fascinating. But she did not think the way you think.]
