[Jan gives Poe a small smile. she'll keep moving forward too, of course; even if her experiences haven't been on nearly such a huge or dramatic scale as his (no intergalactic wars for her), it's not the first time she's had to stretch herself to fit her adaptability into situations unlike what she'd ever believed possible before. it's only the realization that these circumstances are much crazier than she'd even realized before that have left her cold.]

yeah for sure
were all stuck with this
& were all gonna look
its not like anyone wants to stay here in crazytown not making noise forever


[there's that too. the natives want them to stay and make a home here. Jan hasn't acknowledged it in text till now, but she knows already that no matter what else happens, that ultimately won't be her.

whether she'll be another one of the people who came from the room and ultimately moves on from Reims, or whether something else happens, she can't and won't be content with the status quo of a terrible situation she didn't choose for herself. from what Poe is saying, he's much the same.]

we'll keep looking.
