Собеседница [sah-byih-SYED-nee-tsah] While directly translated as “conversation partner,” “interlocutor,” or “speaker,” the Russian term is far more nuanced. Unlike the rather sterile English terms, it carries a warm, cultural emphasis on deep listening, genuine connection, and mutual exchange of thoughts, not just a back-and-forth of words.

Summary: The notes are covered in her handwriting and Sergei doesn’t mean to look, really—but the words on them are not English. They are not quite correct Russian either, in several cases, but they are unmistakably attempts at it. He is still crouching on the floor with the notes in his hand when Margo lowers herself beside him and takes some of them from him briskly. She has clearly not intended for this to be seen.

Or; Sergei discovers Margo's new pursuit.

Quick decisions aren’t necessarily less complicated. Especially when they involve leaving the planet.
