Though the moment was brief, Myka saw the emotions play across Helena's face. Even though she was angry at the Victorian woman for disappearing like she had, it hadn't been her intention to cause her pain. The older woman did mean something to her of that she was sure. But Myka hadn't quite yet made sense of the emotions and feelings that she had swirling around inside her head.
If she really dug down deep she would know that her anger wasn't at Helena. But in fact her anger was pointed directly at the Regents. Sure after the events at Yellowstone Helena couldn't remain roaming freely. Or at least not as herself. But this time it had been different. She had worked with them to put an end to Sykes endgame. Had helped in figuring out why Ghandi's doti didn't defuse the bomb. And then before she knew it the Victorian woman was gone again.
Myka wanted to argue that it had to be an artifact that caused it but Helena wouldn't lie to her. Not after all the lies of the past. If there was one thing that she knew for certain about the Victorian woman was that the lies were over. Or at the very least it was the hope that she clung to inside. Because at the very least she was her friend and someone who valued the woman's experience. "Helena, if it wasn't an artifact than what caused me to appear here in Lawrence, Kansas?" One arm went around to signal to where they stood. As if Helena wouldn't get what she was referring to anyway.
On one level Myka was relieved that it hadn't been an artifact. She'd had enough with being slammed with the consequences of the wish artifact. "Is there a way to get back? Wait..did you say November? It was late August where I.." Myka added and then brought one of her hands up to hold her head. None of this was possible and yet here she stood. Her body swayed the slightest as a wave of nausea rolled through her. Just another minor downside to her condition and the two burritos she recalled eating not too long ago.
