Ami snaps out of it, blinking rapidly as she settles. Right, she's still in the library, with Ben and Cole - what are they doing, though? Cole's all pressed up against Ben's chair, mumbling, while Ben tries to comfort him. Did something happen?

... Oh, wait, duh. She's what happened. "You saw it, too," she says, raising a hand to her mouth. And that means - did he feel all that? Dying in a fire, rising from the ashes, the gears of Time spinning at her command? "I - I'm so sorry, Cole, I didn't know that was going to happen."

As intense as the sensations were, though, it's... not as bad as the last time she remembered dying. Then again, last time, she didn't remember immediately coming back to life. And there wasn't the same sense of... happiness? freedom? rightness? She felt so right, at the end. Like she'd finally found something that she never knew she'd always needed. Like she was exactly where and when and who she needed to be. Like everything was just the way it should be.

Is that what he meant by "faith"?
