[Well admittedly, Eve isn't arguing her place on the train. (Though she might have the wrong idea of WHY she's here.) But talking to someone she doesn't know about her issues when most of them are due to killing people before... Dunno, the train might be a better option.]

...
We'll see.

[But! Moving onto why she called.]

Yes, I can! One moment-

[And the camera feed flicks on to Eve's face. Once she's determined the feed is on, she turns the camera around to face a giant yellow and black machine towering over her. From her angle, there's one rocket booster on the bottom and a GIANT conveyor belt with letters. Barely visible due to her height is a glass cockpit near the top.]

Does this work?

[droptheious]

[Varian will firmly advocate therapy forever. If a therapist can undo the mess in his head and make him a somewhat functional human being, he's sure it can happen to anyone! Though... he suspects people on the train are less likely to do that or... well, they wouldn't be on the train.

But that's not important right now- right now he is gonna help his friend solve a puzzle! Varian peers at the screen, taking a look at the machine. ]

Okay, hmmm. Well, the bottom half looks like a giant printing press - and if the room is... is that a crossword? It sounds like you'd need to get the right letter to stamp down onto the right letter. The rocket booster looks like it might hover?

[ INTERESTING. ]

Can you get into the cockpit?

[playtag]

[He could probably make a good argument for therapy, given they both have a past history of ~crimes~. But getting her to actually trust the therapist? That would take more work.]

[But back to the machine]

Yes, the room does have a crossword-like pattern across all surfaces. If that's the case, this mechanism might be the key out of here.

The cockpit is the windowed part near the front, right?

[Hm...] Let me see...

[The lighting goes brighter for a second, and then the sound of flapping wings can be heard as the camera ascends. Eve's flight does give Varian a sweeping view of the contraption as she eventually approaches the top. Maybe he'll notice the entrance before she does.]

[droptheious]

[ He understands only too well that it's the tricky part. It took a long time for him to trust his own, to open up about the dark shadows of his past. It's hard, finding the trust in someone who can listen to the darkest part of yourself and believe they won't hate you for it. ]

I think so, yeah. It looks like you need to fill in the crossword with it. I have to admit, that's a clever device! I'm a little jealous I can't be there.

[The price he pays for more stable mental health is that he doesn't get to see the cool stuff on Therapy Train. That feels unfair!!

Still, he's watching as she flies around, making an excited noise!]

Wait! Go back a bit to the left! There it is! It's a big swing door!
