"As I said, fine. Really, I'll be okay."
One on one (CLOSED but stalkers tho)
Lau shoved her off to the side as some guards approached, ducking into an alley. She pinned her against the wall. "Listen," she whispered, "If you bleed out in Nazi Germany, that's on me. I don't want to feel guilty for the rest of my life. Let's get you some help, yeah? Don't fight me on this."
"Right, fine. Mom."
"Ugh. Responsibility. I'm allergic." Lau groaned, letting Melody go. "This way." She led the way out of the alley, still supporting her friend.
Melody slid out of Lau's grasp and walked along, slightly faster than her companion.
"So damn stubborn," Lau muttered under her breath. "Any ideas on where to go?"
"Away. We still have our vortex manipulators, we can repair them and then leave."
"Easier said than done," she replied. "It's the forties. No tech."
"America invented computers to fight Hitler during this time period."
"Let me reiterate. No advanced tech."
"I could literally make advanced tech with that. It would take a few weeks but…." Melody shrugged.
"Well, maybe more like months but…."
"Months? That's no good. I'm not about to be trapped here for months."
"Deal with it."
Lau sighed. "I'm never going to stop complaining though."
