"What an... interesting piece of machinery," Eliana says.

"The intact ones are very interesting. Do you want to see one up close?"

Permalink

"I would, yes."

Permalink

"This way, then."

The train station is already crowded with people coming and going, but Nausicaa leads them to an overlook, with a good view of one of the enormous diesel engines currently at the station.

"Beautiful, aren't they?"

Permalink

"Intricate, certainly. Speaking of care and thought in their design. I don't know that I would use such a word as beautiful in reference to a machine, however."

Permalink

"There's a poetry to them. Perhaps I'd like them less, were I to live in any other world."

Permalink

"Some of it is context, I am sure."

She laughs.

"Still, let's find fare, and perhaps I can then look the other way on a spot of entertainment." Still, she sounds wistful.

"You should join us," Hisame says. "I know your Nausicaa is not much one for murder - but surely she wants you happy, and nothing says we have to kill whatever toy we find."

Nausicaa ducks her head, looking contemplative.

Permalink

"Would it help, if whoever we find agrees?"

Permalink

Quietly: "...Yes."

Permalink

"An interesting challenge, then."

Permalink

"We'll have to filter our search more carefully."

Permalink

"What's life without a little challenge here and there?"

Permalink

She smiles fondly. "True enough."

Permalink

"Should we search together, or try a race?"

Permalink

"Separately, or in teams?"

Permalink

"In teams, I should think."

Permalink

"That might be fun."

Permalink

"The question then becomes how we divide our teams... I propose our local guide and the Keres should be on different teams, to balance out local knowledge versus a greater array of information-gathering powers."

Permalink

"That sounds reasonable to me. I will allow you first choice of partner."

Permalink

She leans into her girlfriend!

"I think we could use some quality time, maybe."

Permalink

"Mmm."

Permalink

"It will be you and I, then," Eliana says to Nausicaa.
