[GOOD EVENING, EMMA... After that sordid excuse for a trial, it looks like these two assholes are going to be bumping into each other on their way to the air area. North's giving her a carefully blank look, offering her a nod as a way of greeting.]

Hey.

[There. That's it. That's her attempt at being "nice."]

[Somehow, she feels like this is a step forward. She glances at North as she keeps climbing.]

Hey. [Casually:] Didn't take you for a hiking fan.

[is it tho

She's making a face at her.]

That would be because I'm not.

And yet, here you are.

[With a gesture to the path they're walking up.]

Not being a fan of something doesn't make you physically incapable of doing it.

[let her live wtf]

Then what brings you up here?

[She tilts her head.]

I like the view.

[It's? Not that complicated?]

[A thoughtful pause.]

Wow. I didn't realize you liked anything.

[it's

unclear whether that was meant as an insult.]

[... E M M A.

Even if it's not meant as an insult, North's clearly taking it as one.]

Well, congratulations. You learned something new.

[And then

she keeps climbing.]

[She doesn't hesitate before continuing to climb, even if she tilts her head.]

Hating everything here is pretty legitimate, you know.

[This is her way of saying she didn't mean it as an insult.]
