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.
And he leaves her to read the multiverse explanation files.
She does this. Idaia offers her a listen at the fetal hear monitor necklace; she is charmed by the concept and accepts. She solicits food (sourced from Bar and her lovely recommending-things ability and paid for in demonic counterfeit) and eats it.
"Hello! You missed getting a computer installed in your head and not much else, want to hang out somewhere where we control the door? I want to hang out somewhere where we control the door."
"I don't think I have the context to fully appreciate that remark but I don't mind going elsewhere."
"People can come through the door at any time. So far they have all been alternate universe versions of people we know, but if they aren't, it's more relaxing to hang out somewhere where we are in charge of the door."
"Okay." It sounds like there is yet more context than that but probably in terms of him being afraid of someone or something or some category thereof of thing coming through the door and she doesn't need to know what that is to understand the desire.
Idaia lets her alt listen to the necklace. Her alt is thrilled.
