Day 376 - Open Action
Upon waking up from the dreams, Martha's first thought was she clearly needed therapy. She elected to stay in her flat that day.

The next day she discovered she was out of tea. Perhaps it was time to get back out into the ~~world~~ dome. They were only dreams after all. It's not like anyone else experienced the same things, right?

Her day was much like any other. She started at the Coffee Bean for a quick pick-me-up, then spent some time in Trois park meditating. She did need to get some shopping done as well, both for food and clothes, so she could be found in the various sectors getting things.

Late in the evening, when she was sure Ianto would be gone, she even ventured over to the library to grab a novel or two.

Martha thinks back to the Paradox Year. Would she have done differently? What would she be like had she chosen differently? What about her family?

"An interesting quandary to be sure, and one I think on from time to time. But no, I think I much prefer where I am now, even with the points I would like to change sometimes. Regardless, there's no way for you to travel back in time here, and even if we got out of here, I don't have the proper technology."

"No... at least, no way that's available to us." Lelouch puts it mildly, but his eyes narrow all the same. The AI wardens could, if they were so inclined...

But he should probably let it drop. Martha seems to believe pretty strongly in what she's been told about noninterference. And, taken at face value, the fixed points in time are motive enough for anyone to be... circumspect in even what they allow themselves to hope might be changeable.

	"Hmmm." Martha utters, not quite sure she believes him. But he's not bringing it up anymore at the moment, and she's almost done with her drink. She gives him a tight smile. "Well Lelouch, I do have to get going. It was nice meeting you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And Lelouch returns it, smooth and less tight despite his own misgivings. He's a very good actor, and habitually hides unease. "So it was. Enjoy the rest of your day -- is, I suppose, the thing to say." (Reply to this) (Parent)
