Kate still isn't sure how she's talked her roommates into going down to Rapture with her, but somehow she's managed. It's probably a really bad idea, right up there with a lot of things she's done lately, but she needs to do something. It feels like she wants to crawl out of her skin most of the time and everything she's tried so far has only managed to keep that feeling at bay for a very short period of time.

So now she's going to put herself in a dangerous situation and see if that helps any.

She's been down there before, but that was with Kate and they were the only ones there. Now there are people moving around, it's like the city has come alive again. That's what she's been told. The people are back and there's movement and she wants to see it. Even if the place is crumbling and falling down, she wants to see it alive instead of dead.

"Ready?" she asks. She should get her gun, but she doesn't want to touch it. Not again. They'll be fine without it, she figures. They'll be okay.

This is probably a terrible idea. Carla Jean is plenty aware of that fact, but she has no intention of letting it stop her, largely because she has a feeling that it would be a far worse idea to let Kate and Reggie wander down here alone. Besides, though she's never really been one to wander into dangerous situations willingly, she can't deny a sort of curiosity about all this. The city has been there since before she has, but she's never once been to it, and now that things are apparently happening, it seems like the time to change that.

Her own gun is tucked into the waist of her jeans, loaded, though the cardigan she's on is long enough to keep it mostly hidden. She has no intention of using it, she sure as hell doesn't want to use it, but there's no way she's doing something like this without it. Some risks just aren't worth taking, and this is unfamiliar territory.

"Ready if you are," she replies, mouth twisting to one side. "Shall we?"
