Richard leans heavily against a wall as he waits.

"I mean, do I have rules? How do I keep from.. you know..."

"A letter?" She opens the door enough to take the letter.

Tickets acquired! She walks over to lean by Richard. "There. The train should be here soon."
--
"You'll feel it. Especially if you get angry. You'll feel it try to take over."
--
"Yes. From Stephen."

He nods.
---
"..Right. How do I stop from hurting people if that happens?" He stares at the door frame.

Her eyes flit over the letter then go back to Liz. "Have you seen him?"

She hugs herself and looks around.
--
"You aren't in control of that. You make sure you let one of us know if you think it's going to happen."
--
"I have."

Richard stares ahead.
---
"Will I have time? The first time felt.. it was a bit of a surprise." He kicks at the door.

He chuckles. "I'm sure it was."

".. Hm. That's hard to answer."

"How far is the house from the station on the other side?"
---
"So tell me - is there time to warn you? Or will it always happen like that?"

"Um.. a few miles, I think. But there should be a coach there that can take us to the house."
--
"You can hold it off for a while, if I understand correctly, but it'll make you tired."
--
"He's fine.. right now."

"Almost. We can almost rest."
--
"Yes. Tired is much better than insane."

"What was he like when you last saw him?"

He nods.
---
"Right. And you said that maybe there's a cure, right?"
---
"He..." She turns her eyes down. "Unrecognizable."

There is a loud whistle that indicates a train! Steam curls across the ceiling. "I think it's here."
--
"Yes. I'm sure I heard something about it recently. From Angie, I think."
--
"Well, he's himself right now, but he could turn again at any time."

"So I can go back to my wife when I'm cured."

"You can sleep when we're in our cabin. .. I got a rather nice one." She picks up her luggage and shuffles towards the train.
--
"Yes."

"It's best if you didn't get near him right now."

He follows her. "You should rest too."
---
He smiles.

"He says he'll be cured and find me. Is this true?"
