"You do realize that your brother has been trying to fix it for the better part of fifty years? Things get a little nebulous in our line of work, so you'll forgive me that I don't have the exact figures for you."
She hums, thoughtful, drawing out the conversation simply because they have all the time in the world. She doesn't want to rush in to this, after all; she needs Allison to know exactly how high the stakes are.
"And for a man who could jump forward to the end of worlds, has murdered thousands of dangerously famous people, and has traveled all across time, he's not exactly made a strong effort to help you, has he?" She smiles, stepping closer to Allison and offering out the picture again. In the frame, there's a blond woman with her back to the camera, just at the edge, and she seems to be talking to Claire, making her laugh.
"If you want to see your daughter, I'll require use of your ability through the foreseeable future. I'm afraid your brother has proven to be quite a threat to the stability of all things, including the little world that Claire calls home. She could have been wiped from existence when your family decided to play God with the timeline, so I did do you a favor, you see."
