[ yeah, okay that. isn't something they had time for, but it was also something that gave Jen some much-needed strength. it reminded her that she was doing this not just for her own mother's safety, her own, the city's, or anyone she knew. but directly for Lina - because of what it would mean if they didn't even try to do anything for her sister.
Jen has some vague notion of what it would feel like to be in Lina's position; in this moment or ever.
she isn't about the squander the chance to take in that gesture of affection, whatever its true intent was. Jen saw it as something else to come back to. to fight for. she felt calmer afterward. the calm before a very, very big storm. ]
I... Thanks. [ Jen can't promise that she'll do well. but she can try. ] I'll be back before you know it.
[ with no set plan in mind for this, but a goal and the will to make it happen, Jen vaulted off the nearby edge and made a beeline back for their apartment. today's a good day to feel unstoppable. ]
