"Recently, you've all been told that there is a traitor.
"So you should probably know what it was I did."
[She pauses, searching for the words while she lets that sink in for a heavy moment. One might note that her tones are different; she doesn't sound like her usual robotic self when she speaks. Quite the opposite, actually. Rey sounds almost like-human. In her own way, you could say that this her one big "fuck you" to Smiley. You think she wouldn't tell everyone? Well, now she is. Full disclosure. So there.]
"I entered the dark corridors shortly after the DUPRR crew had docked the ship. Before long it became apparent that the things infesting the hallways weren't approaching me with any hostility. Because they weren't attacking, I was able to reach the secondary shuttle bay more or less without much incident. During that trek I made an effort to avoid others, not knowing the extent of the compulsion and whether it would also drive me to harm anyone who stood in the way." [Well, it's mostly the truth she speaks. You're welcome, William.]
"All that remained was the DUPRR pilot, Neson. Needing his trust, I tricked him into coming with me by pretending to be a person who was trustworthy. It's something I've become rather good at, actually -- pretending to be someone else, much like how I am right now. Despite the fact that something wanted me to kill this man, I decided to will against it.
"It didn't work as intended.
"Instead, I took him to the White Room. I opened the door. And I led him through.
"He's likely still in there right now, where it's kept him."
[She stops, still dizzied from the jump. The more she speaks, the more hoarse her voice gets. She hasn't been using it that much lately, and it's clear from her shadowed eyes and worn features that she's been neglecting more than just sharing this information.]
"Apparently, doing this has-- 'stopped the clock', whatever that means.
"For what it's worth, I'm sorry."

suppose there's nothing in the law of the land stating thou shalt not cast gullible souls into the ominous white void.
more likely to be more in trouble for going AWOL for a month.
perhaps longer than that.
lost track of time. it definitely felt longer.

it's what we say when a soldier has gone missing and/or abandoned their post without permission.
text
i dont think you were gone for a month though?
text
holed up after the last jump.
since coming back from the corridors actually. had to go to the grav couches at least so not to get flapjacked.
text
You know in the form of text messages or something.
Also no pancakes.
text
can thank the persistence of a friend for that.
moving in with sophie might've helped too.
not planning to do the hermit thing again anytime soon. bad for health.
text
oh youre staying with sophie now? thats cool.
fitting too. 2/3 girls i know who can kill me with a spoon are now bffs. not terrifying at all.
text
besides sophie likes you.
why would anyone use a spoon anyway? why not an axe?
or fire?
or an axe that's on fire?
text
text
wouldn't kill you with fire, axes, or spoons either.
just can't speak for the remaining 1/3.
