[ That requires her getting to a page she can summon from— there are a lot of pages in this book and she doesn't doggy-ear them because she doesn't usually have to do this in the dark god dammit.
Something catches though, just as vines wiggle to awareness and slowly begin to wrap around Elda's hands; the card shines above her book and Thanatos appears when it breaks. Not... the one she wanted, but you know what, he'll do. He'll do. ]
Full force, Thanatos! With Ms. Marker!
[ He'll helpfully slice some of the vines so they don't get too caught up here, and Elizabeth glances at the quick-approaching train until she just
rams her shoulder into the fucking wall and shakes the foundations a little herself.
Don't ask, Elda. Don't. Just help her collapse it, okay. ]
... That said yeah the vines did lower her momentum. Let's just brute this thing down though, she's got sharp nails and super strength and we have this big fuckin gundamn dude and we have a teenager. flawless, really. We can!!! do this!! ]
[ That's— definitely fine, Thanatos disappears after the first couple chunks of debris start falling and Elizabeth realizes the dull ache she's starting to feel bit by bit is because he's getting hit; she holds her book tightly, eyes squeezed shut.
The train screeches a little, and its lights flicker a little beneath the tunnel's rubble, barely visible... before it shutters off completely, and rocks crunch together as it starts it attempt to back out and just leave them alone. They're too much work.
[ Hopefully Liz covered her mouth and maybe even Elda's too. As her priority was to grab the girl and get clear, she didn't prioritize that and a combination of that and just running herself ragged once she's here outside the range of the falling rocks and concrete and such is going to result in her inhaling deep and cough.
That did suck, and she waits a little longer to let out a breath and wave her hand to clear the air a little more. Not that she... needs to, but... Appearances. ]
...Good work, Ms. Marker. I couldn't have managed it without you.

What really does it is one of the train's arms slipping out to grab one of them and just... slamming into the wall instead with a worrying crack.
...they loosened it and it opened the jar essentially.
Be ready to step back and cover your mouths, because that's a lot of debris crashing in— ]

Her instinct is actually to bodily grab Liz and make to tug her along with her to leap away from this even though Thanatos is right there.
Ooops? ]
