Up above the hole in the ground, Ira is speaking to her watch:
"Are you certain?"
"It's not that I don't trust you. It's just that you said we didn't do this until after..."
"But this reduces our advantage-"

"They don't always." Beat. "You've broken your ribs before?" Jenn's hand in gently pressing over Bina's ribs.
"I thought ice hockey was the violent one," Jenn says with a teasing smile. "Nothing seems out of place."
"You haven't seen us play." She groans and tries to sit up. "That's good. We don't have time for them to be a problem."
"Uhhhhh so the wigglies are kinda slow, and I managed to lead a bunch into this building, except then I kinda. Got cornered. They weren't really chasing me was the problem, they kept circling around to drop down in front of me and that made stuff stupidly hard."
"So there was this pipe. Maybe a drain? Anyways I escaped through that. I didn't get stuck! Just. A bit momentumly challenged. And soggy. But a bunch of them got themselves wedged into it, and I got out on the other side just fine."
Jenn reminds herself that now is not the time to propose a lock picking race. "It's a useful skill."
She pulls the journal out and holds it out. "Wanna read?"
"You got the important stuff, right, we don't have time - "
And she's tired and her head's spinning enough she's not sure she'll be able to read.
"Yes. But- So. We have designs. And most of them need a piece of the future and a piece of the past. But there's one that doesn't... And it's...it's almost like a radio? Except one picking up time rather than radio waves?"
"You're not wrong. But-" Jenn frowns. "What if we- you're expected to go to the Moment now? And I don't mind saying it. The wigglies aren't fast, but do you really think we can avoid them?"
"I think I can make this?" Jenn says - sounding a lot more confident than she actually feels. Pauses. "Your call if you think this is too convenient."
She shakes her head. "No. It sounds like something I'd want to develop. I'm guessing it's not perfect?"
(Elizabeth, meanwhile, has started writing a report on the sticky notes. She probably won't be able to leave a copy in camp but this is a reasonable place to look for them, so some notes - all the parts except "what you need to know to survive" coded, she isn't an idiot - are getting left here.)
