Cissie smiles, impulsively reaching out to put a hand on the other girl's arm, if she'll let her. "That's a really nice way to think about it," she tells her. "It seems like a lot of us feel that way--like we just want to help each other, even if we're in weird circumstances. It's nice. Makes it feel a little less... hopeless."

It's also a nice change from Wonderland, where it often felt like everyone stuck with their own groups and thoughts of helping each other survive seemed limited to when bad things happened or the landscape changed around them.
