She is. She reaches out to so many.

[turbulency]

Yeah.

You upset that people were talking about voting for you?

[sonorant]

I'm unsurprised. It isn't unexpected. Enough have told me they think I'm afflicted.

[turbulency]

Does it hurt you?

[sonorant]

[ ... ]

I am more hurt by seeing how much this weekend is going to affect everyone, how every week is wearing people down.

[turbulency]

"More" hurt.

So it is hurtful.

[sonorant]

I am not a fortress that cannot be hurt, but I have weathered worse. It will be all right.

[turbulency]

You present yourself like one.

But there's nothing wrong with that.

[sonorant]

I'd prefer to seem like a beacon or a bastion, over a fortress, if I had to choose.

I will continue to stand. I will continue to fly towards the sky.

[turbulency]

A beacon? For who?

[sonorant]

For anyone who needs it.

[turbulency]

You have to get to know people for that, don't you?

[sonorant]

I have been trying, little by little.

[turbulency]

So? [ Looks at her. ] Are you happy with the connections you've made?

[sonorant]

Why wouldn't I be?

[turbulency]

You could always want to make deeper ones.

[sonorant]

All relationships could become deeper. I won't force anything.
