I think some instruments still exist, but I haven't had the chance to see any up close. [While a couple of Displaced musicians will occasionally play at Red Wings, it isn't a common feature (and she's fairly certain their instruments come from home).] One of our drop offs was at a music festival, but I never got up close enough to see what they were playing. [There were instruments. That was decidedly true. But it's not like she could describe the make and design of them.

Now that they're outside, she looks up, trying to ensure that they aren't dove on from above or tackled from behind. The longer this goes on, the more New Amsterdam is actually ... falling under control. There are less crashes, less sounds of people screaming. It isn't just that people are growing used to it. No, the monsters are actually being fought back, bit by bit.

Her body relaxes when she realizes that there aren't any immediate threats. It's an incremental change, if only because Clarke is often alert. The worst part about these creatures is that they're unpredictable, at least compared to humans. It means that she can't expect an action their part that complies with normal logic.

She offers Lance a nod, as if confirming they're all right. She doesn't state what this means exactly.]


Have you looked into digital mediums for art? I had to learn how to use them when I got here, and I still feel like I've only scratched the surface. [Some of the VR work that's done is incredible. Clarke doesn't even know where she'd start.]
