"Why? And just - why each thing? I think - Ira would've wanted Ant back, 'be trusted' might be something Elizabeth wants, 'not dying' is a reasonable want, but - I hate time travel! That's not what I want!"

"More time?"

"I don't - think so." She goes quiet a bit. "There's some stuff I'd change if I could like go back in time and shake my younger self, but this isn't that, and everyone sometimes wants that, it's not a me thing."

"But we already figured out: this thing doesn't understand us. What if this is it trying to give you that?"

"That doesn't feel right. I don't know..."

"We're still working on... guesses really," Jenn agrees. "I'm not sure how to even figure out why you got time travel."

"I think it's - maybe convenient for it. Maybe the timeline damage helps it. Maybe it has to give something, and is just - picking things out of a bag. Maybe Bina Zero was different."

"...It giving us things that advance its goals would make sense. But feels like I'm attributing too human a logic to it."

" - I think 'has goals and attempts to obtain them' would be. Mostly universal?"

"Hm. You're probably not wrong."

She sighs. "It's hard to know anything for sure, though." She glares at a bookshelf. "I hate this."

Jenn steps close enough to nudge their shoulders together. "You and me both."

Lean. "Yeah..." She shakes her head. "Let's check if the Moment's rebooted, I think we've got most of what we need?"

"Yeah," Jenn agrees, fishing the Moment into the palm of her hand.

She examines it as Elizabeth comes down the stairs.

It's functioning, much better than before.

"Come on," Bina says. "We should probably go."

"Definitely," Jenn agrees. "You ready, Elizabeth?"

"Yeah. I found a few things, but there's not much more to dig through."

She nods. She'll see about getting information out of Elizabeth when they're back in the moment.

Bina fiddles with the Moment, opens its new interface - bright green, interacting naturally with the unlight in her hand, and not requiring she uncover it - 

And, once Jenn and Elizabeth have their hands on her shoulders, she moves them into the Moment.

"That was a bit less frantic," Jenn says.

"I'm very glad for that. I've had enough running to last me a lifetime..."

"Your knees could probably do with you being off them for a day or two."

"Ugh. I guess."

"Yeah, I know, it sucks," Jenn agrees. "Wanna see if we can ask Three those other questions?"

"Yeah. Let's."
