She wouldn't? Why not?

[Seeing the after-effects of the punishment Sarah had received as all that it took to convince Alison they needed to flee ASAP.]

[helladoomed]

[Chloe shrugged, her expression getting angrier.]

She think she's helping. She's so mad at them...I mean, I am too but just...

[The teen sighed. Okay. Don't think about being mad at Max.]

She's got this whole scheme where she sends me stuff she's recording so I can put it online.

[subourbon]

She's going to try to film things at the seminar?

[That sounds dangerous to her, not that she's going to say it out loud to Chloe.]

[helladoomed]

Yeah. Using the...the what, the 'brain' network? I don't know how it works.

But she showed me. I could see what she was doing all day.

[Chloe tugs her phone out and pick a random spot of video from Max's day to show to alison.]

[subourbon]

[Alison watches with interest. She doesn't really understand these network things any better than Chloe, hasn't fed the need to learn much about them. She speaks slowly, as if trying to piece it altogether.]

So she's hoping that you can use the footage to expose what the Russians are doing to the rest of the world?

[helladoomed]

That's the idea.

Met a lady who the plane who can do video editing to make it so they can't figure out who was filming.

[She puts the comm away after a minute or so, otherwise she'd get sucked into watching Max's day and she really didn't need that.]

[subourbon]

[She's not really sure what she can say to comfort Chloe, but she settles on:]

Max is very brave, taking on a task like this.

[helladoomed]

Brave, or stupid?

[Chloe couldn't decide which. It was probably both.]

[subourbon]

I don't think that's my place to say.

[She's never even met this girl and she's not going to risk saying the wrong thing to an emotional teenager like Chloe.]

[helladoomed]

[That made Chloe smirk.]

Good answer.

[Oh right she had soup to eat didn't she...]

[subourbon]

[Going to dish out that soup into a bowl for Chloe and finding a clean spoon for her to use.]

In any case, there are probably people looking out for her, right? I'm sure she'll be okay.

[helladoomed]

Yeah...

Some guy named the 'Iron Bull?' He's this giant minotaur dude.

[Chloe called him and asked him specifically.]

[subourbon]

["Giant minotaur dude".]

He's... not literally a minotaur, is he?

[helladoomed]

Giant guy with huge horns. Doesn't have a cow face though.

[Minotaur-esque?]

[subourbon]

You're sure the horns are real? They're not just there for... decorative purposes?

[Alison Hendrix: always focusing on the important details.]

[helladoomed]

...Pretty sure.

You can ask him if we ever get to go home?

[Mm, soup. Eating soup.]

[subourbon]

... no, I think I can live without knowing the answer to that.

[helladoomed]

[Chloe snickered.]

He seemed pretty cool, minotaur or not.

[subourbon]

Well, it's important not to judge a book by it's cover.

[Which is something that Alison is pretty terrible with.]

More soup?

[helladoomed]

Sure.

[Chloe smiled.]

I get judged by my cover all the time.

[subourbon]

I think we all do, to some degree. It's happened to me too.

[helladoomed]

Wait, so you mean you aren't just some kind of suburban house wife?

[[Is she teasing? Maybe...]

[subourbon]

[Alison shoots her a very sharp look at that.]

Very funny.

[helladoomed]

[Chloe just gives her an innocent smile as she eats her soup.]

[She needed this moment, really. Get her mind off it.]

[subourbon]

[Alison watches her in silence for awhile, and then gets up to see if she can find any fruit for Chloe and pretend this is a balanced meal.]

So are you staying in this complex as well?
