( day 7 - morning )
[ Somewhere after Elizabeth disappeared from the new makeshift family in Apartment 7, she finds herself asking Alice to meet with her in the kitchen at a set out. She has what she can scrounge up - canned sausages and grits. It wasn't much, but when she was able to cook it, it turned up well for a woman with one working hand.
The two plates were set and she made sure that she waited for late enough in the morning where no one would disturb them. So, if Alice accepts, Elizabeth will already eating by the time she comes in. ]

People weren't always good.
Elizabeth went to Alice for more reasons than her "safety" stamp. She seemed to be able to detour others, to influence them. Be it through the frighteningly cheerful way she strings her words or the alliances she's made... it's beneficial to Elizabeth. ]
We'll see if - no, when - the trial occurs. I don't want to condemn anyone to death... that isn't my interest. However, there's a price to be made for the actions you take. Wicked men spread their influence easily and I'd like to do my part in wiping it out before it's too late.
[ There's a push of the plate in front of her. Instead, she opts to strike her cigarette with her lighter and take a few puffs of it herself. ]
Trust me, dying is the last thing I want to do. I - ... I got a lot at stake and I need to get back home. I'm not putting my partner and innocents at risk for some martyrdom.
I got a few other strings to start pulling but in the mean time, I appreciate your help in this.

For now, it will work. Their end goal is pretty much the same: make it out alive. If Elizabeth wants to get as many innocents out with her as possible, that's fine as long as it doesn't slow Alice down.
For now, it shouldn't pose too much of an issue.]
Then I'll do my best. [She smiles.] And my best is pretty good. ♡
