( laura, admittedly, hadn't worked hard to find anyone else. she wasn't sure whether the preferred answer was to find them all here, people she'd already worked hard to start to trust, or to know that for better or worse, at least they were still in an environment that they understood, back home.
it's the kind of thing that seemed too big to answer right away, so laura didn't. she just stuck her head down and worked — and got dosed by toxins in the air, apparently. real smart. she keeps her head down now, too, follows close. she still can't shake the lingering panic stuck in her throat that they're very imminently about to die horrible, but at least it's shifted into a less specific focus than the judge breathing down their necks. )
