Amanda, Jubilee - Thursday morning

[xp_daytripper]

Before Amanda's announcement in her journal about Columbia, she was on medlab duty. Changing Jubilee's bandages, she and her arch-nemesis talk about dreams and memories.

Nathan and Amanda, Thursday morning

[x-cable.livejournal.com]

After reading her post about her plans to go to the Columbia memorial, Nathan immediately goes to talk to Amanda. There's no shouting, but the conversation doesn't go particularly well, mostly because she doesn't hold much back on the subject of why she's doing this and why she didn't tell him. Some truths are hard to stomach.

( 'I can't go in an' get the bastards meself, but I can at least show 'em they haven't broken me the same way they've broken Mick an'...' She cut herself off, not wanting to hurt him, but for fuck's sake, it needed saying. 'An' you.' )

Nathan and Forge, Thursday afternoon

Still reeling from the conversation with Amanda, Nathan holds Forge back for a few minutes after Humanities to talk to him about his post. Forge finds out that there was a lot more to what happened at Columbia than he knew, but sticks to his guns about making some good come of it. Nathan starts to realize just what's bothering him so much about it all (beyond the long-standing 'forty-six people are dead because of me' issue).

( You can't unring the bell. )

Amanda, Forge - Thursday afternoon

Following his 'talk' with Nathan, Forge tracks down Amanda in her usual habitat and they go over her speech. He also surprises her with a project and a deal is struck.

( They laughed at me, when I tried t' stop 'em killin' people. I still remember that. )

Remy & Danielle

Danielle & Remy meet in the grocery store. Yes. The grocery store, but fortunantly, they do not argue over the last loaf of bread.

( Dats why if you teach de bugger how to knock a man unconscious and still his shoes quickly, he'll never be shoeless again. )
