"Exactly."

Should they go see if Bea has an answer about London's (and possibly other enclaves') participation, now?

Sounds good.

Probably they're in the library.

As indeed they are.

Any word on if London (and their allies) have decided to try larger runs, too?

Yes, they have. It's seeming like the only realistic way to survive the course. Opinions on joining up with Shanghai are more divided, however.

It'll probably make sense to split the runs by main language at first, anyways - Luthien's already been talking to the other indies about separate Hindi and Spanish runs. 

It's a matter of trust separately from that, too.

Time might help, though.

She hopes so.

"We'll work on it."

"Anything you can do will help, I'm sure."

"I'll do my best."

"I think you're pretty good at that sort of thing."

"At least sometimes."

"Often enough."

"We'll see if it's enough for this."

"We will."

Cheek kiss!

Giggle!

"Well, I'm sure we all have a lot left to do..."

Including some people to do.

"We'll catch up later?"

"I expect so. Be safe."
