Helena Wells-Quinzel is H.G. Wells (indelibleink) wrote in makebelievelog,

Unlike Claudia, Helena was not optimistic in things happening between her and Myka. If anything, the Victorian woman was resistant to even mentioning the past relationship. Helena wasn't expecting Myka to return her feelings, it would be completely unfair to the other woman if she did expect it. There was also the fact Helena refused to get her hopes up that something could develop again because to her, it would only be built up to be taken away again. It was exactly how Helena's life worked. She'd get happiness and have hope only to have it all ripped away from her. She was starting to take this as a sign she should just stop hoping for something better when clearly she'd never actually have something better.

When Myka squeezed her hand, Helena cast her a little smile in acknowledgement. It meant a lot to know that Myka was there for her. Loss was something Helena certainly did not handle at all, and it was far too easy for her to push her pain aside and focus on the anger of having lost something. Tucking some hair behind her ear, Helena crossed her arms again as Myka put things in terms she understood. Though Claudia's addition, at least the mention about "they" made Helena think of the Regents. It was a very accurate comparison from Helena's standpoint. The Regents always held the trump cards in their world, and Helena still resented them for the Janus Coin. She really would rather have been outright killed by them or Bronzed again. Though she'd probably prefer being dead as that would have meant Sykes never would have gotten into the Warehouse in the first place with his bomb.

"It is certainly an experience, that is for certain. Anything can happen at any time without any warning." They all just needed to find a way to deal with it and move on. "The upside is that we don't have to go hunting for any Artifacts, we just have to wait until things go back to normal." Helena was actually a little glad that they didn't have to run around and snag, bag and tag Artifacts. Here, there was a chance for them to actually have largely normal lives. Though Helena was currently questioning what such a life was worth when she still lost people.
