[The feed turns on to a serious young man as he examined the tablet in front of him, though that scrutinizing look quickly disappeared when he noticed that the video feed has turned on, in fact looking quite impressed at the device's speed before speaking.]

I don't know if this could be seen by everyone, but it's worth a shot.

[There's a short pause before the male continued.]

How many of you here received a weapon that's out of the norm upon your arrival, and can someone point me out to someone who is experienced with that type of training?

[Before he introduced himself, as per the usual protocols.]

My name is Athrun Zala, it appears I'm as much help as a beginner when it comes to information right now, so any more in addition to the Initiative's words would be welcome.

Athrun, be serious! [Chastising to hide her embarrassment? You bet!]

[The smile still hangs as he dropped the jokes, but at the very least she can tell he's back to his serious front as he continued to speak while the feed was set to be filtered.]

I've talked with the others, and I've found that there are some that's not really supporting of who we're working with.

Eh? What do you mean? [She looks confused now, as well as slightly concerned.]

What do you expect with this? Their dumb machine doesn't control who it brings in, right?

Not really, but if the relationship continues to be this rocky, there might be a chance for a civil war to erupt between all of us.

[Keyword being 'might'.]

I think you're reaching right now. We're all stuck here, right? I'm pretty sure no one's going to be stupid enough to aggravate the situation.

[There's just a stare for him at that.]

Hopefully that's the case. But there's nothing wrong with being prepared too, is there?

video/private;

[feisty]

No, but that's still extreme. We should be working together, not fighting against each other.

I know.

[Which makes it all the harder for him, to be honest.]

[She's silent for a moment before trying to lighten the conversation.]

Hey, have you met your roommates?

video/private;

[selfdestructed]

One of them, at the very least.

[And at least she didn't point a weapon at his general direction.]

You?

[feisty]

In passing. They seem nice.

Well, you are going to be living with them for a while after all...
