Well, that's a straight answer. And one she's inclined to believe. People lie about good things, like cake, and helping you, not dire consequences. Dire consequences seem way more likely to be real.

And that means she's stuck here. In Maryland. Maybe even in this house. Trapped, again, and this time with nothing: no portal gun, no Advanced Knee Replacements or Long Fall Boots, no Companion Cube, no tests. Just herself, and this guy with his list of American values.

She reads the last thing he wrote and shakes her head.

Now that he mentions it, though, she does look down at herself and takes in what kind of mess she's made of herself by throwing herself out a window. There are some scratches on her calves and forearms from the bush that broke her fall, though none are particularly serious. Nothing she hasn't walked off before.

IT'S YOURS


She points at herself and gestures at the living room. The couch is fine for her.
