She fishes out a packet of cigarettes, not opened; for emergencies, stored emotions in a puff of smoke instead of tears. It seems more dignified, somehow; the accelerated mortality doesn't matter.
Absolute poetry, really. I am amazed with how fast you how found exactly who these characters are. Their voices are completely pitch perfect and their struggles spot on. btw, this makes me need MANY Dimitri/Beth convos in the show!
And I - really? I managed to capture that much? I'm surprised, I felt like I was grasping at straws, seeing how little we've got of them onscreen. But thank you.

That is exactly what I was saying, there. lol.
I do love Beth and Dimitri, really. (I now want to write Beth and Ruth, and Ruth and Tariq, and Tariq and Dimitri. And Lucas and Harry, but that could be super!angst.)
