Cradling her teacup as she settled into her chair, Lily watched Winnie as she spoke, blinking at the mention of how the other woman woke up.

"A jail cell? In Sa-Hareth? Were you hurt?" Her knowledge of what the group had experienced was at best, meager. Details cobbled together from bits of conversation that she tried to order into some sensical narrative.

Pausing when Winnie asked if she thought the train station was somehow involved, Lily shook her head and shrugged. "I'm not at all sure, but there's a fair bit of magic in Kings Cross. It made me wonder if that might make it a more susceptible place to be taken from." Lily waved a hand dismissively.

"I'm still trying to piece everything that's happened together."

"Oh no, not terribly." She waved a dismissive hand herself, smiling gaily as she laughs like it's no big deal. It's just a jailcell surrounded by undead, what's to talk about! "There was a very exciting jailbreak and we all got out, so it worked out fine in the end! Something I've noticed, dear, is that it always does."

In the end, things will always work out. She nods though, humming in understanding. "I'm not sure any of us truly know what in the world's happened or why. Frankly, it might be better to not think too hard about it--answers don't seem to be forthcoming right now. You're going to tie your pretty little head all up in knots trying to figure it out. Isn't it better to just keep looking forward?"

Winnie was also far more interested about the idea of magic though, pointing to the tea. "Did you use magic for this?"

Uncertain what kind of jail it was, that Winnie hadn't found it to be a terrible experience she looked at the other woman curiously in between sips of tea. "Does it?" Lily pursed her lips thoughtfully and looked down at her mug. "It has so far, you've all gotten this far."

Tying her pretty little head up in knots was what Lily did best, but she gave Winnie a smile and an understanding nod, well aware that later she would be back to puzzling it all over.

"I did. Cup and all, from one of the plants outside. I tried a few others before I found this type. They were utterly dreadful, but this one is - passable, I suppose."

"It always does," she assures Lily, reaching out to pat her hand and give it a reassuring little squeeze. "We're the good guys here, aren't we? And good guys always win! At least, that's definitely what always happens in my books. I'll be sorely disappointed if the one adventure I get to have ends up being the opposite!"

She sits up and looks down thoughtfully at the tea. "it's passable," she agrees, and smiles. "Perhaps the next place we go to will have real tea leaves and we can get things done properly!" She sighs a little wistfully. "Magic, though... I'm so jealous. I don't have a wand or anything. I doubt it'd work for me. Has this place hindered you at all? I hear it's done funny things to powers."

Smiling when Winnie reached out and pat her hand Lily nodded at her question. "I like to think we're the good guys anyway." She still hadn't gotten much of a feel for a few in the group, but she had optimistic hopes that by and large, they would be decent people.

"Have you heard much about what lays beyond here? I know we're due to go east but I've yet to find anyone who knows what's waiting along the way." If Winnie had been here for a good deal longer, it stood to reason she had heard something of what lay beyond this part of the world they'd all ended up in.
