River is walking through the ship. Barefoot and intent.
Every hallway. Every room. Every doorway.

One door slides open before she can touch it.
Simon's on the other side, blinking at her.

River reaches out anyway, ghosting her fingers over the doorframe. Her face is troubled -- very close to desperate, around the edges.

He meets her eyes.
"What is it,
meimei
?"

River's looking away, at the floor of the hallway.
"None of them open."

"Maybe..."
He hesitates.
"Maybe we just haven't found the right door yet."
It's weak, and he knows it. It hasn't taken him more than two tries to find a door to Milliways, not for months.

River shakes her head.
Soft and bleak, "Nothing bends."
She looks at Simon, tears starting to brighten her eyes.
"They took away the lines and redrew them straight."

"River, it's okay. We'll find the way back."
He puts a hand on her shoulder.
"This is just ... temporary. A glitch somewhere. They'll get it fixed."

"Shh. I know. We will."
He draws her into a hug, and pats her back.
"We will. Soon."
It's almost two weeks later before he stops trying every door he passes.
