You know, in a way it's almost nice to get some time to oneself. For instance, time away from friends who have no sense of personal boundaries, or to reflect upon the alarming alacrity with which one has adjusted to life in an alternate dimension.
What's actually nicer, of course, is making a conscious decision to spend time alone, and likewise, having the option to return to spending time with other people when one wishes to. Though, of course, that's hardly a new complaint here, is it? After all, the very fact that we're even here to begin with is a constant reminder of exactly how much free will we have, the extent to which we're actually in control of our situation...
It can be easy to forget, after going unaffected for a while, what the City is capable of. Which isn't to say that this is the worst, by any means, but... well, as I said, it does grant one some time to reflect upon things...
Well. At least there's only a few hours to go.
