Edie was perusing the latest correspondence from her fork. She still should have been paying enough attention to realize that the door didn't go where it ought before it swung shut and she couldn't sense anyone else anymore, but she wasn't.
After opening and closing the door a couple times to make sure she hadn't just been abducted somehow, she looks around.
He would offer another hug but a minute ago she was trembling extremely violently.
Huan offers the hug instead.
This is acceptable. His mind is weird and nifty and he is soft and furry.
And now she's going to remember the last time Dr. McCoy hugged her and start crying again.
Good, because it's probably going to happen a lot in the future.
After a little while she does let go and go curl up on the couch by the fire and try to sleep.
Well, everyone else present except Cam can carry on conversation over thought-speech so they don't interrupt her.
Emma conjures documents concerning the Sentinel project and makes angry noises under her breath.
...We should definitely at least have a plan first, and I should do some more reading...worst-case it waits until Maitimo's ready to start administering an empire, this was a government project...not billed as genocidal murderbots but I'm not sure there's much left of the non-evil parts of the government.
And we should maybe show the plans for these things to your dads in case they have sneaky nasty surprises that Emily'll trigger if she starts rarifying them naively.
If I'm reading these things right they're nastily specialized to fight mutants and crazy adaptable. It would surprise me if she never could but not as much as if she reliably could.
I think that would probably necessitate waiting. Emily won't want to fork that many times if there's a reasonable alternative and summoning may not work there and it's really not worth interrupting the Abbadon time-stop.
True. Although, hm, might be better to wait 'till we've got resurrection working..,
