River is tucked under a booth, legs crossed and elbows resting on the floor. There's a notebook in front of her, and a handful of colored pens. She's scribbling in a tangled mixture of Chinese and English and diagrams; she never manages to fill a page before she slashes the work out with a frustrated jerk of the pen, and turns angrily to a new page.
She's been through a number of pages by now, apparently to no avail.

And then, fingers clenched against her coat, nods a little.

"I'll be around."
Pause.
"More so than usual. And not...functionally. You know what I mean."
"Thanks."
His hand is gone.
His face is gone.
And then the engineer boots are gone, and the footsteps go away.

But not, for now, at the blank notebook page in front of her.
Her eyes are damp.
