Lucy has never been especially good at waiting, but when Mathias tells her that's what they have to do, she means to try to listen to him. That doesn't make her attempts any more successful. Already restless, she paces back and forth nearby, pushing a hand through her hair. Someone will come by, she believes him on that count, if only because the island isn't very big and people will notice the landscape having changed, but confined to such a small space, surrounded below, without anything to do, she just hopes it doesn't take very long.
When she hears Mathias call to some others, she hurries over, thinking maybe they've got their escape. The sound of changes that all too quickly. Even so, she wants to tell them to do otherwise, to get away, instead, but she can't bring herself to. Despite what he's told her, she still isn't really the one who knows what's going on here, and she has a feeling that, if there were anything else to do, he would know it. Instead, she calls down, "Up here!"
