"Well said. For better or worse... I trust you."
"Watch my back."

>Ah, apologies down there. We were just having a lively discussion between a few of the councils members. Nothing to worry about.

AUBREY
"I can't hear your private conversations, but I

"Just so you know."

Your POV separates from Aubrey's when she leaves the area.
This particular slice of In-Between has one interesting feature, at least.
The static fluctuates.

AUBREY
"Oh, sorry. Were you following my line of sight?"

She welcomes you back into her POV.



AUBREY
"First things first: I'm not going
anywhere near that door unarmed."

You feel Aubrey's tension as though it were your own.
The sight of the unguarded doorway stirs something inside her...

AUBREY
"I'd appreciate a weapon, Council."
"I don't want to be the only creature
wandering the In-Between that can't
kill. Not this time."
