[Elizabeth snorts softly, and realizes a little too late that maybe Kurt thinks she's rejecting the idea that they're friends.] No, that was-- I'm not going home. I escaped from that place and no one could pay me to go back. [Largely because it doesn't exist anymore, but those are details.]
[She picks up a chair and rights it so she can sit down. It's tiring, wandering around the Moira and searching for any tear that might open to her, but it also feels like she's having some kind of heart-attack.]
...I would have. I would have sent anyone who wanted to go home back, and anyone who wanted to stay with someone else could have gone that way too. But the Ingress...

It sounds like an excuse though, doesn't it? For all anybody knows, I could be Savrii, and responsible for taking us here and intentionally stranding us. We're in the middle of nowhere, with dwindling supplies and an environment that is anything but forgiving. People are going to panic. I know what happens when people panic, when they need something to blame.
