"This is true. You have no idea how strange I found this world after McPhearson debronzed me. The things he told me about that I'd missed, the technological advances made, it was hard to adjust to that. 100 years may not seem like a long time for things to change so drastically, but even now some things are still strange. And being a hologram for a while there didn't exactly help matters, either." While she was largely acclimated to the world as it stood today, Helena still found herself longing for the world she'd known. Even though she preferred to be in this time where she could get credit for her own ideas and inventions, she missed the simplicity of things. Things sometimes moved too fast for her liking here, and the world had seemed to grow even darker than it had been in 1900. But there were still good things to be found, things she liked about it.
Thinking of Myka made Helena both happy and sad. Myka wasn't here, so it was hard, but Helena knew the agent was still alive, she'd made certain of that. "Do you suppose Myka would be cross with me for dying to save her?" It was an off-hand question, one Helena hadn't really meant to ask, but there it was. "Also in a stunning turn of events, both Pete and Artie tried to protest me saving them. I believe they said something about they could've found another way to save us all. I wasn't exactly listening at that point." She looked at Claudia, obviously now a different woman than she had been when she'd tried to destroy the world.
