Technically they broke time, which is kind of the same thing.

[The Legends are ... Special.]

But they were doing it to save the world so they probably had a good reason?

[Zari doubts it, 2042 still sucks.]

[lumberlady]

Hmm...

[Konoha does try to imagine how someone could break time. She really does. But she's a medieval farmer's daughter with no education, and before her head starts hurting... she gives up.]

I think that's too complicated for me, haha...

[Laugh it off... ! But hey, Zari will probably feel the warmth of the sun on her face soon, now that they've reached the outside.]

[hackedhistory]

To be honest, I don't even fully understand how they did it. I joined the team after the fact.

[But that's neither here nor there as the sun hits her skin and she tilts her face back a bit. It's good to feel, after having been cooped up for so long.]

But all that matters now is that it's been mostly resolved. Kind of.

[lumberlady]

I hope it works out for you...

[Well, it's nice to know that she wasn't the only one who didn't get it!]

The fresh air will help you for now! ... maybe not with the time thing, but.

[Konoha looks about for a bench or something, not wanting to leave the woman standing while she couldn't see properly.]

[hackedhistory]

[She nods with a small smile.]

I've spent the last week cooped up inside. I'm definitely ready to spend a little time outside. Thank you, for the help.

[lumberlady]

No problem at all!

[A bench finally located, she guides Zari over and tries to help her sit down.]

Do you want me to leave you be, or keep you company? I can always come back and get you when you want to go back inside, too.

[hackedhistory]

That is entirely up to you.

[She wasn't expecting a lot of help in the first place, but she doesn't want to hold Konoha up if there's other things she was intending to do today.]

I don't want to tie you up if you were busy.

[lumberlady]

Well, I do have some cooking to get done, so-

[Hmm!]

How about I swing back by when I finish and I'll bring you lunch.

[hackedhistory]

That sounds perfect.

[An acceptable compromise if there ever was one. Plus food! Zari's favorite thing.]

I'll be here.

[lumberlady]

Great! I'll be back in about an hour, so just enjoy the sun for a while!

[The sound of hooves will signal Konoha's exit... but at least Zari now has lunch and an escort back to her room later. Score.]
